Cuddy Woods Conservation Area
Great little fishing spot and nature area, except the water is filthy.
Could really do with a cleaning.

Strathroy Rotary Splash Pad
While it doesn’t look like much, it’s a great way for the kids to cool off on hot summer days.
It’s well kept, with a variety of fun aquatic fixtures to feed your fancy.
It’s right next to the play park where you can burn some energy telling your kids to stop eating the woodchips.
Lots of seating including picnic tables.
Close proximity to the ice cream store!
Only problem is you might not be able to find a bathroom unless you head to the Tim Hortons up the road.

Coal Miners Cafe
6 of us came here for breakfast and when we walked in there was a musty / mildew smell.
Quickly realized this was not a cafe, it's a diner.
If you are looking for a cafe, try somewhere else.
My uncle had a hankering for lunch but he was told they won't do anything special off the lunch menu during breakfast.
My sister is vegan and she was only able to drink coffee since they have no vegan options at all, not even fruit.
They wouldn't even let my sister bring a vegan item in from the real cafe up the road.
Coffee was nothing special, a 3 of 5. The tea pot was leaky and spilled down on the table when poured.
Staff was very friendly and Pam was great, she redeemed the visit with her waitress skills and humor. Quick to fill the coffee pot.
Food quality was ok, good but not great. Eggs Benny not lemony enough. Bacon overdone, too crispy, but they liked both.
Waitress was great, fast and efficient Did I mention?
My uncle and I got steak and eggs and our steaks were cooked perfect except too much fat on both steaks, the quality of the cut of meat was not awesome.
Waitress Pam was great.

Gull Cove Trailhead
This is a really great trail, and well maintained with care by the locals. It's a good hike for kids too (depending on how far you go).
We were impressed by the recent additions at the start of the hike - the log book and walking stick depot, how cool.
We went to the beach which is the first stop / it wasn't marked as far as we could tell, maybe they could add signs for the stops.
There were lots of variety of flowers along the way as well as dragonflies & butterflies. We saw a snake and unfortunately lots of horseflies, so bring some bug spray!
This was a really beautiful walk - there was sturdy planks covering all the swampy/muddy/damp areas and a nice sturdy bridge to cross the deep black stream.
3 members of our 5 person hike party had sandals on and nobody got wet (except for when we swam in the ocean.)
There is a shipwreck on the beach which made for some fun scavenging. My brother took a load of garbage off the beach with us - if you do the hike, do your part and grab a piece of garbage to take back with you.
My sister Jacky said every piece of garbage you take from the beach is a wild animal's life saved.

Kennington Cove Beach
Beast beach in Cape Breton if you like waves. Check the surf forecast and try to time your visit with big waves!
Everyone loves kennington cove, where the pine trees meet the ocean.
Dogs are allowed on a leash.
