The outdoor park has nice picnic tables, parking and a toilet. You can overnight there. You can also observe the tidal bore there with less mosquitoes than the Maccan Wetland Park. As for the Museum, it’s worth a visit to allow people to access the areas delightful history.

Very quaint roadside museum. Small model replicas show history of the small town from Industrial revolution through the eighties. If you go here you will get good insight into rural Canada for this period.

Models are of the local heritage houses (school, amusement park, grocery store, etc). Made by one of the locals.Great effort even though the models themselves are quite basic (comparing to big-city museums). $5 per adult, $3 kids, $12 for family of 2+2. Good playground by the side of the museum.
