In reply to Denisa. In Wolfville, we stayed at Highbury Gardens and at Cape Breton, we stayed at Bras d'Or Lakes Campground. The campgrounds are definitely made for the older rigs that are a little shorter and most are 30amp but they worked for us. Good luck and have a great time!

We are reading your blog, as we are planning a trip to the Maritimes for summer 2020. We’re just curious which campgrounds you stayed in at Wolfville and on Cape Breton Island. We are also in a Tiffin motor home, and beginning the process of booking campgrounds. We love to get advice from people that have traveled there ahead of us.

In reply to Julie Dahmer. Sounds like you two had a blast at Cape Breton! I'm jealous you smuggled your tomatoes back into the US. :-D I was surprised how warm Maine and Canada were during our stays but I guess we were just "lucky" to follow that heat wave north. Any plans for your next trip?

p.s. our tomatoes slipped past the boarder guards.

We just returned from our first trip to the Maritimes, just following the heat wave, apparently, and missing the heat wave in southern Maine where we live now. We spent 6 nights at Broad Cove campground in the Cape Breton Highlands and loved it. We hiked a couple of the easier but scenic trails, including White’s Point (just outside the park). Warren Lake, near the campground, has a 3-mile trail around it and is OK for dogs to swim. I planned swim myself but it was too chilly that day! En route to Cape Breton we stayed two nights at Whycocomagh Provincial park which has a steep but short trail to a view from Salt Mountain, plus lots of blackberries if you are there at the right time, which we were.
