Cape Breton Highlands National Park - Ingonish Beach Campground — Hotel in Ingonish Beach

Stayed 2 nights in an Otentik in September 2021 and had mixed feelings about the stay. We've stayed in at least 6 other Otentiks and this one was the worst, and some of it came down to the park.

The pros were that the ocean was a minute away and you could hear the waves crash.

The cons 1. The park was out of firewood and we were told to find it ourselves and that it was easy. After trying all the stores in town and all roadside stops we ended up finding a kind and generous local who took us to his house and loaded us up from his backyard.2. the listing stated it came with a BBQ, great. When we got there we realized it was a charcoal BBQ without any supplies. In all my years stating in Otentiks it's always been a propane BBQ, they really need to fix this. 3.

It’s a great location for hiking and the beach. There are lots of sinks for washing dishes and shelters with tables to cook or just hang out in, including a wood stove. We cooked dinner in a shelter when it was raining. I would stay there again but only if I could avoid the sites that are too...

Campground was very convient with the facilities it has to offer - public washroom and shower, wifi room, sheltered cooking areas and dish washing station. The staff were friendly and helpful. Theres a grocery store and Home hardware close by incase you need supplies. Another bonus is the resturants with delicious food close by. Its also a 10min walk to the beach and lake or just a quick minute drive over. This campsite is near perfect except the campsites are extremely close together and don't offer much privacy. However, I will still come back next year because overall me and my family had an...
