.....
A little lookout overseeing Mouse Island. Slept here one night. No sign we could not. Beautiful view. Some cars pulled in in the evening to enjoy the view also and left eventually. Very windy.

There was a sign but we stayed anyways.

We spent the night. Lots of locals until midnight, very quiet after. In the morning, we saw the maintenance guy take out the trash bags.

Spent one night before the ferry and it was a great spot. Lots of locals coming and going and quite a few rvs/vans (get there early to get a spot). Everyone was friendly and respectful. Quiet through the night, though I imagine it might get pretty windy at times.

Very nice view. Perfect for a big rig in the middle 😉

Beautiful spot overlooking Moose Inland. Fairly level. We camped here in a Class B motorhome with about 4 other smaller motorhomes. A shelter, a few picnic tables, and garbage cans are available.

A fellow who lived next to the lookout came by after hearing my husband playing his banjo. He was a musician who played on the wharf close to the ferry.It was a Wednesday.

Idyllic picnic spot at the edge of a neighborhood. Came here after a day on the ferry. Certainly a good first stop for visiting Newfoundland. Hope the locals don't mind sharing this beautiful spot. Many mosquitoes at sundown. Internet 2.14/1.24 Mbps up/down.
