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. Come stay with us and explore all that southern New Brunswick has to offer!
