"Camped here for a couple of nights. Beautiful beach with warm water. Lots of shells to collect along the way. Many camp grounds to choose from, from opened up so you can see the stars at night to closed in and wooded. I would recommend waiting till dark and going down to the beach to watch the stars in the middle of the night
Outhouses, bathroom and shower facilities are available here"

Comment By: Ben in 2017
"Abercrombie is a mature design that provides a strong test even while being on the short side. Most tee shots require precision to allow for the best angle of attack into multi tiered greens which are kept in good condition. This isn't a bomber's paradise without extreme accuracy. Abercrombie has recently hosted the Nova Scotian and Canadian Mid-Amateur Championships in 2014 and 2015 respectively,"
