Cosy log cabin

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Sep 22, 2014
Four of us stayed in one of the two-bedroom log cabins, which included bathroom, kitchenette, and living room/dining area. Very cosy and clean, and although the campground is just off the main highway, the site is well sheltered with trees, and you can hardly hear the road. We had two days to see the Cabot Trail, and the staff at the campground were very helpful when it came to planning our route and activities.

Clean campground, nicely maintained pool and washrooms. For tent sites, we found the circle was a little intimate, but not bad, just something to know before you go. We stayed here five years ago, in a different part of the park, and the location was a bit better then for tenters. We will go back, for sure, it was nice and quiet and we appreciated that.

Facilities are well maintained, clean and close by. Pool is a bonus as is no cost showers. A small campground with a mix of lot selection, treed, open, serviced or not. Free Wifi available , strength sketchy at times when load is on. Although close to the highway the noise is minimal. we were pleased enough we extended our stay a couple of times.9 km to Baddeck was a quick drive to shopping and other entities.

My family and I stayed at “Adventures East Campground and Cottages” August 2013 with our popup travel trailer (Site/Lot 3 in the treed area near the pool). We enjoyed our stay and we will come back. Read on for more details. The positives outweigh the negatives.
We really enjoyed our weekend here, it was very laid back and quiet, restful. We travelled with our 4 ½ year old daughter. The swimming pool was a big hit with our daughter. I found the washrooms and showers were incredibly clean and well looked after, same goes for the pool area and sundeck. The sundeck is very inviting, great place to read your Kindle while the kids swim (or look up and you might be lucky to see a pair of bald eagles soaring overhead). The property is very well maintained.

This is a very peaceful property. If you are looking for a bustling campground, this may not be the place for you. There are no organized activities or programs for kids, or anything like that.

We had a good experience with the staff. For example, on Saturday morning I took a shower and there was no hot water. I went to the main office to report the problem. The lady I spoke with (Shelley) dispatched the maintenance man and the issue was solved. She came to our site to speak to us about it. She told us we could have a late checkout the next day and she also gave us a coupon for 5% off our next visit. I thought this was great. Not only did she resolve the issue promptly and followed up with us but she threw in a couple little perks for our trouble.

The negatives were:

Our site (Site/Lot 3) was near the highway so you could hear the traffic going by, but you got used to it and eventually we didn’t notice it. At night it got very quiet, no worries about noise at night time.

The firewood was wet and my husband fought with it all night to keep it going (both nights). We dreaded putting a new log on the fire because the flames would disappear for 15 minutes and the fire would just smoke, smoke, smoke. But if you were patient enough, the wood would catch fire and the flames would return eventually.

We stayed with our 2 kids in a 1-bedroom cabin. It was clean, quiet and perfect for our needs. The location is great, as the entrance is right off the highway near the Big Red Barn (fantastic gift shop & restaurant), but the cabins are far enough back that it's not noisy at all. Would definitely stay there again!

I did not stay in any of the 3 cottages, but did spend a delightfully pleasant and quiet week plus stay in the campground off season.
Adventures East offers 3 cottages, 2 have 1 bedroom and the third unit has 2 bedrooms. They come with living room and kitchen / kitchenettes, outside bbq grills and porch. Each unit is a separate building. Housekeeping - clean sheets and towels are offered.
As for the Campground portion of this place - We liked it. Adventures East has over 70 different sites, ranging from no hookup (tent) to full service (w/s/e 30amp). About 20 sites are under trees (yes there are branches hanging in to sites at places) and lengths vary both in depth and width. The majority of sites are w/e service and are in an exposed field. All sites have fire rings (they sell fire wood on site).
Small playground (swing, slide, seesaws) and outdoor pool are available. Laundry, hot showers and wifi. gravel/dirt road and grass sites.
Cabot Trail is right outside the entrance, and you're just a few km from the community of Baddeck. There is a (dirt) boat launch in to Bras d'Or Lake at the driveway entrance if you like to kayak or canoe. Great place to paddle about and watch Bald Eagles soaring overhead.
Not much staff around during our visit - again, early in season. Manager was on site every day during daytime hours and was very helpful in giving us suggestions for touring and the community. Other staff were in and out doing odd jobs (mowing, painting, etc). We stayed here in a 5th wheel and will put Adventures East on our return to this place list.
