Nestled along the banks of the Pollett River lies a private camping escape. Set on the grounds of a historic 1800s sawmill site, this one-of-a-kind location blends heritage charm with peaceful wilderness.
The property is a heritage sawmill site developed in the mid 1800's in response to the booming New Brunswick logging industry. The barn that housed the workhorses that worked the mill offers a beautiful backdrop at the entrance of the property.
Our camp site offers total privacy from the outside world. The site is perched along the river bank, allowing instant access to incredible trout fishing, swimming, canoeing, tubing, and ATVing. Whether you're casting a line at sunrise or floating downstream in the afternoon sun, this site offers everything you need to reconnect with nature in total tranquility.
The campsite is the original stone foundation from the sawdust burner that handled all the cuttings from the sawmill.

We had a wonderful stay at Old Mill Camp. We brought a tube and spent some time floating on the river. Our dogs loved it and had the best time exploring. The entire spot is very scenic. The path down from the barn was lined with wildflowers, and in the evening we enjoyed watching the fish jump in the river and tons of fireflies dancing around. Highly recommend using the outdoor kitchen. It was a great setup and added to the overall experience. The canvas tent was cozy, dry, and comfortable, exactly what you need. Overall, it is a peaceful little spot to unwind.

We love tenting off grid and this was the perfect location! It’s so peaceful on the river and the site is set up so nicely to reflect the history of the 1800s saw mill that used to stand there.
The water is so clear and very refreshing after a dip! The army tent is really cool and a campstove and propane were provided.
Brad was very accommodating and available to help out in any way.
The dogs loved exploring and being on the river.
We highly recommend this site and we hope to make a return visit!!!!

Absolutely beautiful spot. Our dogs loved having the river right there and not having to set up a tent for just a weekend was ideal. Will be back! Bring a Thermocell or 2 because it is rural New Brunswick

The perfect mix of camp and glamp with privacy, peace and serenity. This is a great spot for a couple, friends or young family to enjoy the outdoors together. With animals on the farm, trails on the property, location close to Amherst and attentive hosts, you can't get much better than this! Bring some sunscreen, bugspray and smore stuff for the ultimate unwind and relaxing time. This was a beautiful solo and safe getaway if you just want some time to yourself. I will definitely be back if I ever need some time alone to journal and read. Thanks again!

We had such a fantastic stay at this off-grid cabin. The hosts were warm and welcoming, and the cabin was thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. It was spotless, cozy, and perfectly tucked away in the trees for a peaceful getaway. We loved the firepit, the nearby trails, the open field, and especially the pet emus — such a fun and memorable touch. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unplug and relax in nature! Amenities just a few minutes away makes this a perfect location.

Absolutely loved our stay! The camp had all the basic necessities for off grid, with perfect layout and warm decor. The land and trails were so fun to explore. Snowshoeing and winter bonfire were great - peaceful nature retreat at its best. Dawn and Terry were very much great hosts, with directions and explanations at the start, even lending us a sled for our unrequired heavy packs, as well as letting us know to reach out anytime if anything more needed. No need for that, the cabin already had all we needed for a weekend stay, along with special touches. The games and puzzles were a great addition too! Thanks so much for sharing your piece of paradise!!

We had a great two night stay at the Owl's Nest cabin. Helmut answered all of our questions before we left and transported us to the cabin to show us around the cabin and property. Cabin is secluded and off-grid. Our dog was not a fan of the steep stairs to the loft. Don't forget to bring your orange vest and remember to check for ticks. Highly recommend for those looking for a quiet getaway.

We absolutely loved our stay at Owl’s Nest! Helmut treated you like family, sharing his experiences tending the forest and the cabin that he built. If you’re looking for a place to get off-grid, connect with nature, and be able to explore the many trails just outside your door, this is the place! We especially appreciated how the land was private, so that we could let our pup explore without worrying about running into any other dog owners. It was a great to share this cabin and we will certainly be coming back!

We surprised my parents with a stay at Bootsie Back 40 Cabin for their 40th anniversary, and it was absolutely perfect! The hosts went above and beyond with every detail. The cabin itself is so cozy and welcoming, surrounded by stunning fall colors that made the whole experience magical.
My parents loved the peace and quiet — they spent their mornings sipping tea while listening to the birds sing. The hosts were wonderfully friendly and even took photos of my parents for me, which was such a thoughtful touch. They also got to visit the farm animals (including two emus!), which they absolutely adored.
Thank you for helping me give my parents such a memorable and heartfelt experience. This will be a trip they’ll cherish forever!
