We want to rv in Newfoundland and Nova Scotia next.
We have visited Newfie 2x and loved it, but we didn't take the RV. That turned out to be beyond our budget.
I lived in Newfoundland for 24.5 years. Traveling by rv should be less than any other way, except motorcycle and tent. Something is out of kilter here. I certainly have heard of places where the facility owner, would say, 'use our parking lot'.
Of course, this plan includes taking the ferry Port aux Basques to N. Sydney both ways. The Argentia costs lots more. & there are ways to be careful about gasoline cost too.
Check Public Utilities Board for fuel prices:

Still, I should say my reason for moving away from NL upon retirement was to get away from the ferry cost. It's a very big source of outmigration, especially for those with grandchildren living 'away'.
