Check out Google because if you go there in August, there is the Ganong Chocolate Festival in St. Stephen and RV parking is right there and free

Depending on when you plan on going you might want to make a reservation to get on the island-weekends and holidays see more traffic to and from..There is no getting off the island without one.
How long to stay?Up to you.
We've been going there for 10 years and love it.
If you want more info you can pm me

We had no reservations for the ferry, slept near the pier upon arrival, had reservations for Hole-in-the-Wall cg...Cool pace. We have a small rig and were camped near the cliffs.

Will have pics posted.......

We stayed at the P.P. and had a beautiful site with wonderful views across the water. We did a lot of cycling while on the island and general sight seeing. I think depending on your interests, 3 or 4 days is plenty to "do it all". We have been there a couple of times. The island is not big.

I went in 2005.

I would make a reservation, just to cover the might happens.

I stayed at the provincial campground. There were two and room in both was fine.

Two deer farms. Loved them. Great museums and other places to show you what's special about this place in the middle of Bay of Fundy's World's highest tides.

Hope that THE Bakery is still on the go. It's easy to find because of the many vehicles stopping to buy.

Walking, boating, bird watching........
