RiverLaneView: Off-Grid Riverside Pitch in the Nova Scotia Woods
Welcome to RiverLaneView, a quiet patch of forest at the end of a private road in the heart of Nova Scotia, with your own access to the South River. Set slightly up the slope among the trees, this is a spot for a few days of real quiet. In the morning the sun comes up right over the river, the mist still hangs between the trees, and eagles and hawks circle overhead. Barely any traffic. Just the woods.
PLEASE READ FIRST: THE LAND IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION
We want you to know exactly what you are booking. This is a brand new site and still a work in progress. The gravel driveway is finished and ready to park on, but the rest of the land is untouched forest, just as nature left it.
There is no power and no water on site yet, and no washrooms. This pitch is for fully self-sufficient, off-grid travellers only. If you arrive in a self-contained RV or van, or you are happy to pitch a tent and string up a hammock and bring your own water, you will feel right at home.
If you need hookups or facilities, this is not the right spot for you yet.
WHAT YOU CAN DO HERE
- Park one self-contained RV or van on the finished gravel driveway.
- Pitch one or two tents, or hang a hammock between the trees, on the natural forest ground around the driveway.
- Direct, private access to the South River.
- Fish right here: the South River and nearby Lake Torment are well stocked.
- Watch the sunrise over the water, facing east, and the eagles and hawks over the river valley.
- Enjoy a small, friendly neighbourhood along the river and the lake. A few houses, real people, and now and then a friendly village dog stopping by to say good morning. Real Canadian country living.
GOOD TO KNOW
- No power, no water, no washrooms on site. Come prepared and self-sufficient.
- Pack it in, pack it out. Please leave the forest the way you found it.
- Dogs are welcome.
- A two-night minimum is recommended, as the drive out here is part of the adventure.
- Power, water and a small washroom are planned for 2027, along with a larger RV pad and turning area. For now you get the place in its most natural, original state, before any of that is built.
THE NEAREST STORE (Convenience in the Woods)
You are off the grid, but not off the map. Just a few minutes away at Lake Torment East you will find the only store around: a gas station, a small general store, and the Woodsman Grill for fresh fish and chips, burgers and poutine when the campfire needs a night off.
THE LOCATION: REMOTE, BUT WITHIN REACH
Tucked into the heart of Nova Scotia on a narrow strip of land between Armstrong Lake and Lake Torment. Close enough to civilization, far enough from the noise:
- New Ross, about 30 min: the nearest village, with a diner and a grocery store for a hot meal and a proper restock.
- Halifax Stanfield Airport, about 1 h 45: your arrival point from Europe and North America. From there it is scenic highways and a stretch of real gravel road right to us.
- Kentville, about 1 h: the lively heart of the Annapolis Valley, with a farmers market, cafes and everything you need to stock up.
- Wolfville, about 1 h: home of Acadia University, known for its farmers market, live music and festivals, and the gateway to the Bay of Fundy basin with the highest tides in the world. The surrounding Annapolis Valley is also award-winning wine country.
- Digby, about 1 h 15: world famous for its scallops and the ferry to New Brunswick.
- Lunenburg, about 1 h 15: a UNESCO World Heritage town, a colourful harbour with deep seafaring and German roots, and home port of the schooner Bluenose II.
(Drive times are estimates from the site. Please check your own route in Google Maps from 153 River Lane.)
IN SHORT
A perfect escape for explorers who want the forest without leaving the world entirely behind. RiverLaneView: one private road, a handful of neighbours along the river and the lakes, and your own spot somewhere in between. Pack the thermos, light a fire, and let the South River do the rest.

Wake up overlooking the Bay of Fundy in your own private glamping retreat.
Located in Upper Rockport, New Brunswick—just 17 minutes from Sackville—RAW (Rest and Wander) offers 30 acres of private coastal wilderness with sweeping views of one of the most extraordinary tidal landscapes in the world.
Home to the highest tides on Earth, the Bay of Fundy transforms constantly throughout the day. Walk the ocean floor at low tide, then return hours later to watch the cove completely fill beneath the cliffs. Crimson red clay that glows, dramatic rock formations, and winding mudflat “arteries” create a landscape unlike anywhere else in Atlantic Canada.
Perched at the highest point on the property, our private site “Room with a View” will now feature a Wildwood Zen glamping RV, thoughtfully positioned to take in the panoramic ocean views while offering comfort, privacy, and a true escape into nature.
Your stay includes:
• Private Wildwood Zen 270 RV glamping accommodation. Sleeps 4
• Wood-fired sauna overlooking the tide
• BBQ for outdoor cooking and dining
• Large picnic table for meals and gathering outdoors
• Propane fire pit (usable during most fire bans)
• Traditional wood-burning fire pit
• Outdoor seating area with Adirondack chairs
• Scenic 2-minute walk to the shoreline
• Clean, well-maintained outhouse
• Firewood included
• Outdoor games including Giant Yahtzee, KanJam, and bean bag toss
RAW is also a fantastic destination for bird lovers and wildlife enthusiasts. Depending on the season, guests may spot hummingbirds, bald eagles, hawks, owls, and the famous migrating semipalmated sandpipers that gather along the Bay of Fundy shoreline during July and August.
Whether you’re enjoying sunrise over the Bay, relaxing in the sauna after exploring the shoreline, or watching the tides roll in beside the fire, RAW is designed for guests looking to slow down, reconnect, and experience the coast in complete privacy.
Perfect for:
• Couples seeking a unique glamping getaway.
• Families wanting space to explore and unwind.
• Nature lovers, photographers, and bird watchers looking for a peaceful coastal retreat.
This is not a campground. It’s a private Bay of Fundy experience.

Escape to a Tranquil Lakefront Retreat
Unwind on the sandy seating area of your private lakeside getaway. Lounge by the water as dragonflies dance overhead and frogs croon in the background. With privacy and breathtaking natural surroundings, it’s the perfect place to recharge.
Family and pet friendly, no need to leave your fury friend with a sitter. Although I can highly recommend sitters if required.
Explore scenic trails on foot or by bike, glide across the lake in a kayak, or take a refreshing swim in the calm, waters. In the evening, gather around a crackling fire—ample dry firewood available (bring a saw if you’d like) —and cook dinner under the stars for the ultimate outdoor experience.
Conveniently located just 10 minutes from the heart of Bridgewater, you’ll have easy access to shopping, malls, supermarkets, laser tag, museums, and more. Fancy a change of scenery? Discover the beauty of nearby sandy beaches, each with its own charm.
Only 1 hour and 20 minutes from Halifax, this lakeside haven offers the best of both worlds: peaceful seclusion and access to adventure.

Sam was one of the most helpful friendly hosts. Thought about our needs even before requested. Nice grassy Terrain. One hour bike to Hopewell Rocks. It was private as we were the only ones there. Don’t know how it would work with two or three, ground can be soft so check with him in advance. Other than that 5 Star!

We only had one night at Lunenburg before handing our RV rental back, so difficult to provide too much feed back. But site was good for us, power, water and sewage dump so we could clean down before it went back. Never used the log burner as it rained most of the evening but it was there to use, along with picnic bench. Recycling and compost facilities available which was good and a small store in the reception. Its location was close to town so we drove the RV in and parked kerbside, opposite the museum. Not sure that would always be possible. We'd definitely use it again.

We absolutely loved our stay at Sam’s Hipcamp! From the moment we arrived, Sam gave us such a pleasant, warm greeting and made us feel right at home. His hospitality was outstanding and truly made our stay special.
The property itself is absolutely beautiful—peaceful, spacious, and such a lovely place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Sam even had boards available to help us level our rig, which was incredibly thoughtful. He also made potable water available so we could fill our drinking-water jugs and our wash-water tank, which was a huge convenience for us while camping.
And one of our favourite parts? Hearing the cows! There was something so wonderful and peaceful about waking up and hearing them—it really added to the whole experience.
Sam has created a beautiful place, and his kindness and hospitality make it even better. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend his Hipcamp to anyone looking for a beautiful, peaceful, welcoming place to camp. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Parked just off the road away from the house and parallel to the paved road. Not much traffic so pretty quiet. Access to the Bay of Fundy was about a quarter mile down the road and access to the lighthouse was about 4 miles in the opposite direction toward Walton.

Richard met us when we arrived and showed us around. There is a beautiful trail through the woods. The lake view is stunning. There was a canoe for our use. The dogs loved it too. Firewood was provided. The site is very large with its own porta potty. We highly recommend this site if you want a peaceful getaway.

This was a great camping spot for our weekend. So much space and access directly into the lake was great for us. There are only a couple sites with woods to one side so it felt really private. Definitely a great option for those who prefer privacy and a more in nature experience than a proper campground.
Would also be great for a group as there would be plenty of space for another van/rig or tents.
The hosts were super nice and helpful. We would definitely like to come back!

This was by far my husband and my favourite camp site in the East Coast! I only wish we had stayed for more nights! The site is gorgeous! The lake is beautiful and clear. It was quite chilly when we went but I had to go for a swim in the lake anyway it was SO gorgeous - would be an incredible swimming spot in the summer. Richard was super kind and showed us around. Great trails for walking our dogs on the property. He even offered us free use of a canoe! Super quiet and private space. The owners have a dog which I was a little worried about since my dog is terrified of other dogs but it was no issue at all we didn't even notice. Could not recommend this camp site more!!!!

We just returned from 2 nights at Richards campground and can highly recommend it! Richard is nice and makes sure he's available, but also gives you all the privacy you need. It would be challenging to tent here because of the site cover, but we have a van, so no worries. Site was huge, clean, has a clean porta potty, fire box and wood (ban was on for us, but good to know). Site is lakefront and pet friendly, our 2 dogs had fun swimming and squirrel watching!

What a gorgeous spot! Our site was huge, and was right on the lake! There was even a canoe with life jackets that we were able to use if we wished!! We were able to see two bald headed eagles soaring above the lake, absolutely beautiful!! The night sky was amazing, we could have stayed out all night looking at the stars…We were personally greeted at the gate, and taken to our campsite which was a sweet touch! We’ll be back for sure!
