The camp has a long sandy beach, campfire circles, running water, showers, telephones and easy access from the main road. There is plenty of room for tenting in the grassed open areas of the camp. There are good roadways to the back of the camp, to the very popular "Newfoundland" field, next to the Northumberland Strait. There are several buildings in the camp for group use. The Debert building sleeps 36, has propane cooking stove, hot air heating, and is four large rooms, one a kitchen / dining area and a big common area. There are three log cabins, away from the headquarters area and accessible by a road. There is electricity, bunks and a kitchen area (with fridge) in each cabin. Two buildings sleep 8, one sleeps 6.
