I have camped here throughout the years---both in a tent and a motorhome. We stayed again this July, prior to the Highland Games. This now appears to be a spot where parents and the staff have no supervision as far as children are conerned. The kids are on bikes and child size motorized vehicles. These are ridden on sidewalks, up... More

As cyclists, we really appreciated this campground in the middle of a city. Absolutely fantastic amenties wise with wi-fi, an enclosed rec/community room with a mini kitchen (perfect for those of us staying in a tent). Please note that this is a private campground and not up to the same privacy and site standards for a provincial or national campground.... More

I did not like this place. The campground has a lot of campers and RVs as well as the cottages (we stayed in 1 of the 14 cottages). The pool is very small and was a serious health and safety issue. There were so many kids in it unsupervised that I couldnt let my kids go in it. Big teenagers... More

Stayed at one of the Whidden's cottages while dropping of my son at StFX. The cottages are actually double wide trailers that are spacious and immaculate. The on-site staff were gracious and couldn't do enough for us. I will definately stay there every time I visit the school.

My mother is a native of Antigonish and I have family who still live in town, but during big reunions, my family always stay at Whiddens. It is billed as a campground and it has some tent sites, but we rent a cottage. The cottages are really like double-wides that are nicer than some apartments I rented when I was... More
