Enjoy fresh veggies from the garden and have the comforts of home with use of a large picbic table outside or dining table in the yurt. Guests are welcome to sleep in the yurt on a first come/first serve basis at no extra charge to make camping easy. The toilet and shower located in our home are open for you to use as needed. WIFI can be used on the porch or if you are parking an RV near the house.
I work from home sewing Hanging HUGS custom luxury hammocks and can teach you how to sew your own, or offer what I have in stock. An expedition sea kayaker and expert rock climber, with more than 25 years experience giving clients a unique look at our province, it's my pleasure to introduce you to favourite spots. We also own an off-grid camping area 45 minutes south close to Fundy Trail Provincial Park and have made a hiking trail to an epic location which I have been developing for rock climbing over 10 years. Pull a kayak to the river in ten minutes or try a loop trail around the property on a fat bike. You could easily fill a weekend here with outdoor activities and make memories you'll never forget.

What to Expect When You Stay With Us
If you’re longing to disconnect from the insanity which has become our world, come visit our family-run farmstead. Switch off your devices and sink into nature’s balanced harmony — fresh air, quiet trails, and star-filled skies await.
Conveniently located in rural New Brunswick, our farmstead is about an hour’s drive from three major cities and the stunning Fundy Coast. Here, rolling hills of wildflowers open into forested trails perfect for a peaceful hike or a casual wander.
When the sun goes down, the star gazing is spectacular — with almost zero light pollution, our night skies rival those of the open prairies.
Cool off in the summer at Belyea’s Cove or Crafts Cove, just a 10-minute drive away — both ideal for swimming and boat launching. Albright Brook runs right through the property, offering hidden sit-spots to relax, meditate, or cast a line for trout in season.
Within five minutes you’ll find two waterfalls worth exploring, and just 15 minutes away, the fully stocked country store in Cambridge-Narrows has beer, wine, and spirits for your evening by the campfire. Hungry for more? Country-style restaurants serving hearty roadhouse meals are just 20 minutes from our gate.

Good place to rest your head for the evening if road tripping. However definitely not suited for tent camping as the ground is very uneven and rocky. Relatively private and good tree coverage. They do have a table and a tarp which can come in handy!

This was a beautiful site, next to a pond in an enormous, well-tended field. As described, the road down to the site was a little rough, but the area we camped was grassy and smooth with plenty of flat spots. A great spot to watch the Stars on a moonlit night.

A truly hidden gem! We were received well and the warmth from Paul and Sue was perfect for our couple's roadtrip. We will definitely return there if we ever go back to New-Brunswick. The view was stunning in the evening and in the morning. Only the sound of nature can be enjoy to make you relax after a long day of driving. A must stay if you are in the area!

We had a wonderful evening at Kate’s. They welcomed us with a warm smiles and personally guided us to our campsite by the pond. My partner and I spent the night under a sky full of shooting stars, cozy in a tent that Kate generously lent us. An unforgettable experience I’d recommend it 100%!

We absolutely loved staying here. The pond was so beautiful and we spent a lot of time looking at all of the frogs! The water was perfect for swimming!
Kate and her partner are the nicest folks around - so friendly and sweet. Really good people. They gave us the perfect recommendations for things to do and places to check out during our stay. We would come back in a heartbeat!

Great place to park my truck for a couple of nights. Protected, shady, quiet, and peaceful. They had a table and a tarp there if I had needed them, which was a nice touch.
It was super dry, so didn't have too many bugs (I could see them being pretty bad if it was wet out). Didn't need to set up a tarp or anything, but plenty of trees to do so if you need to. Also great places for hammocks!
It's perfect if you are staying in a hammock, small camper, or vehicle. I'm not sure where I would have found a non rocky/rooty/rutty place to set up a tent if that's where I had been sleeping, so keep that in mind if you are tenting it. It was great for the set-up I have!
The neighbors house felt a little close, but where and how I parked still felt very private with the angle of my vehicle and the trees. I think I was just more surprised than anything as I didn't notice it in the pictures.
Great spot for a few nights!

We spent 2 nights at Paul and Sue's property and loved everything about it.
The hosts made us feel very welcome and made sure we were comfortable, while letting us enjoy the place in peace and quiet.
If, like us, you're looking for a simple, authentic experience in the heart of the countryside, and enjoy the company of ducks, rabbits and chickens, Paul and Sue's little paradise is for you.

We had a wonderful time tenting here! The owners are very friendly and easy going. The property is gorgeous and my twins had a blast playing in the brook all day. It was our first time tenting as a family and I can confidently say we couldn’t have picked a better spot! If you’re thinking about booking, you won’t be disappointed! 10/10 would recommend and hope to come back again sometime in the near future!
Thanks so much Paul and Sue!

I loved tent camping on Paul’s land! I ended up staying in another site than I originally had booked (and was able to pick the one that had the most privacy by the stream. The hammock and lounger by the water was a nice touch. They even helped me put up my tent even (I had never set it up without my husband ha ha). I loved just exploring the land surrounding the farm and the bunnies were adorable! The stars and fireflies at night were so beautiful. Since this was my first Hipcamp stay I am so thankful I had such great hosts! Thanks again for the memories!

We only stayed one night on Braydon’s land but it was very charming and Braydon was very knowledgeable regarding off grid living/ homesteading. There were nice little spots nestled in the trees all over his land to camp and despite its more remote location it was a very fun spot to spend the night. We would definitely consider returning if we were passing through again.

We loved our spot, which was very private, the place is absolutely beautiful with lots of trails and the owners are very welcoming and knowledgeable. And the best part all the animals!

Farm stays near Fredericton guide
Where to go
Kouchibouguac National Park
Sitting on the Acadian Coast of New Brunswick, this stunning park combines lush forest with salt-marshes that are home to thousands of birds, and sandy beaches that spill into the warm ocean. Kouchibouguac offers amazing hiking, kayaking, fishing, clam digging, and all manner of Parks Canada-provided activities (including going out in a traditional Indigenous canoe). Year-round backcountry camping is available, as are seasonal serviced campsites and oTENTiks.
Bear Island
This tiny community is a great spot for hanging out in nature and having a low-key break, with some awesome attractions and a sweet campsite that comes with its own private beach, a swimming pool, and trails. Nearby in Nackawic is the World’s Largest Axe, a cable suspension bridge, and Howland Falls.
Mactaquac Provincial Park
This heavily wooded park was built for year-round camping. Aside from hiking, fishing, kayaking, and enjoying the numerous freshwater beaches, Mactaquac features a marina, an activity center, and ziplines. In winter, Mactaquac Provincial Park offers sleigh rides, groomed ski trails, skating, fat-bike rentals, and two groomed sledding hills.
When to go
Up until June, the weather in this part of New Brunswick can be pretty changeable (and cold and wet), but summers are warm and can be pleasant right through to the end of October, when fall kicks in along the Saint John River. You can experience everything Fredericton offers year-round, but some attractions and campsites outside of the city operate only on a seasonal basis.
Know before you go
- Cell service in less-populated areas of New Brunswick can be patchy, so don't rely on your phone as your only map if going off into parks.
- French is widely spoken in Fredericton, as New Brunswick is Canada's only legally bilingual province (and all services must be offered in both English and French). If travelling north of the city toward Quebec, you’ll find the French language much more commonly spoken.
- Free camping on Crown Lands (as in owned by the government but not a designated park) is permitted for short periods in New Brunswick.
