Mersey River Chalets a Nature Retreat

Great view and quiet environment

離森林公園入口五公里左右的森林裏，河流旁邊，各種設施齊全，還會在草坪偶遇snapping turtle

The location is beautiful. The rest appears to be lacking or on the decline. No wifi in the chalets. No TV. No air conditioning. Fix those three issues and they might be able to get themselves back on the radar for modern vacationers. With temperatures on the rise, summers in Nova Scotia are and will be hotter. AC is becoming a must. Most vacationers consider broadband internet to be an equal to electricity. Not having strong WiFi acess in the Chalets is a ticket to a full pass-on-by. Television isn't as important but would be appreciated by those looking to fill times where outdoor conditions are unfavorable. They have canoes and kayaks available. Firepits and gas barbecues. A boardwalk stretching along a considerable length of the Mersey River with chairs and picnic tables thru out. These features make the outdoor experience very nice however the indoor needs help in the forms mentioned. We would certainly return if the accomodations are upgraded to current standards.

It truly is a magical place. The boardwalk that winds along the rushing river, surrounded by the lushness of nature, the refreshing water for swimming and kayaking along the peaceful end of the river, and the sounds of birdsong washed away the stress of city life in moments of arriving. The lodge room was modern, with all the amenities I needed. BBQs and a kitchen, picnic table…. It’s paradise and I am definitely coming back.

Our family of four stayed here for four nights. The property is beautiful and lovingly maintained. We enjoyed using the free kayaks and canoes on the lake and river. The location makes it easy to visit Keji, and there is a grocery store about 20 minutes away that is pretty well-stocked. We had an absolutely wonderful stay and would love to come back. (You do need bug spray to avoid being carried away by mosquitoes, but that’s true of most places in the summer in North America.)

This is an amazing place. The property beautiful and relaxing, the cabins are cozy and comfortable, and the staff is friendly. It is perfectly situated for quick access to Keji National Park but you could also spend all day on site between the canoes and kayaks to use, walking paths, and the beach on the lake. We had a memorable evening canoeing upriver at sunset.
