| We spent 3 nights with our popup trailer (site #89) in August 2011 at Jardine Park. We simply LOVED it. A perfect place for peaceful family camping. It is our new favorite campground. The campground is beautifully wooded, it is enchanting as the sunlight filters through the branches. The sites are SPACIOUS (you don't feel like a sardines). The facilities are somewhat dated but VERY well maintained and cleaned. I was amazed by how clean the bathrooms were. At any given time there were workers constantly cleaning or scrubbing or racking or mowing. I couldn't believe how clean it was, I stopped one of the workers to compliment him and he said he couldn't take the credit, he said it was the campers. He said "The campers see how clean it is and they make an effort to keep it that way." The park has EVERYTHING... sandy beach, playground, 2 swimming pools, canteen, band stand with bleachers for live entertainment on Friday evenings, laundromat, 3 buildings with showers and toilets, ample visitor parking. Plus just a few 100 feet beyond the park gates, you'll find a RCMP station, gas station, convenience store, A&W, Tim Hortons!! The road leading out of the park has a designated pedestrian and bicycle lane so you can easily walk or bike to the Tim Hortons :) And a little further down the road you'll find a COOP grocery store, NB Liquor Store, Shopper's Drug Mart, Hardware store and more! So convenient. Plus the campsite had reliable WIFI! I can't say enough about this place. We plan to return here every year! |
