About

Northumberland's convenient location near the Wood Islands Ferry terminal makes this a busy park. Many people choose to stay for a night or two at the beginning or end of their visit to PEI. Cliff swallows burrowing nests along the shore are of special interest. Children's programs and supervised swimming are available.

45 campsites on the reservation service: 14 unserviced, 11 two-way (electricity and water), 20 three-way (electricity, water and sewer).

7 camp cabins (basic wooden cabins sleeping 4) can be booked here as well.

Fees

Unserviced $38, two-way $45, three-way $50 CAD per night, plus 15% HST and a $6 reservation fee
