Know its a little far north than what's discussed here, but has anybody been...what should I expect

A lot of steps to get down to the beach...365 to be exact, yes we counted them! The sand is not great and there are many drift logs on the beach. An entrepreneur set up a concession stand and sold burgers, hot dogs, etc. (I had a buffalo burger) and beer. Drugs are sold openly and the RCMP seems to turn a blind eye as long as there is no trouble. All supplies must be carried in or brought in by boat. The climb back up the stairs is real tough! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" />
To us it was worth doing once.

Went there several times years in the past. Above poster is correct, hard getting down, real hard getting back up if you're not in shape. Not dangerous as steps are cut into path and some benches along the way for taking a rest. Seems like lots of folks use (if/when weather is nice) and best catered beach I've ever seen. If you have a chance get it off your bucket list <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Laugh.gif" alt="" />
Parking is limited. A small lot (pay) if you get there early enough and a parking building (more expensive) on the university side of the road.
