Print Details

Overview

Hidden in plain sight, Whidden Park offers a camping experience like no other – the gentle Brierly Brook winds its way through our 15-acre parkland, and downtown Antigonish is just off our doorstep! Leave the car behind as you explore the shops on Main Street, dine on fine local seafood, and take in some great live entertainment before heading back to your site for an evening around the fire.

Our 154 campsites come unserviced or serviced, with 30- or 50-amp power. A well-equipped dump station is available for campers in sites without sewer hookup.

On-site activities include two swimming pools, playgrounds, outdoor games and a Rec Hall. Take advantage of the on-site laundromat to freshen-up mid-trip, pick up a few necessities at the store, and log on to the free Wi-fi to stay connected with family, friends, and work. Make yourself feel at home!

Within walking distance of:

  • Unique shops, cafes, restaurants & pubs on Antigonish’s beautiful Main Street
  • The campus of St. Francis Xavier University (just two blocks away – a 5-minute walk)
  • Columbus Field (location for the Antigonish Highland Games every July and various events throughout the year)
  • Festival Antigonish – Professional live theatre with shows throughout July and August, located on St. FX campus

For anything just out of reach, Antigonish Community Transit offers daytime bus service from Main Street to key locations in the area, including the Antigonish Market Square Mall and Market Street stores (Walmart, Staples, etc.)

Don’t own an RV or just looking for something easier? Our RVs are fully set up and waiting for you! Skip the hauling, backing-in, and leveling – just bring your own linens and towels and move on in! Available by the week only (Saturday through Saturday).
