Anyone who rents an RV in Antigonish is going to need a place to post up for a night or five. Whidden Park Campground & Cottages is located just outside the university and minutes from the coast. More than 150 RV campsites offer a variety of accommodation options, from primitive sites for tents and campervans to full-service pull-through sites for large motorhomes.

The Oasis Motel and Campground can be found on the eastern edge of town. There's no Wi-Fi, and the cell service isn’t great, but when it comes to camping, the seclusion is part of the charm! Oasis offers full hookups, public restrooms, and hot showers to its guests. The campground's location just off the Trans-Canada Highway also makes it very easy to find. If a decent view is what you’re looking for, consider Linwood Harbour Campground.
