We loved seeing all of the wildlife and farmstock that would just hang out around the cabin. We would definetly recommend the tour! Our guides were very knowledgable about what they do and showed us some on the best looking calves and chickens youll see around.
A wonderful experience all around.

I had an incredible time at The Goose! This was my second time staying there and I loved it both times. My dogs enjoy it so much. I’m very thankful to have found somewhere that my dogs are welcome. This is a great halfway point location for me to stay when travelling to New Brunswick. The cabin is always very clean and everything is set up. I can’t wait to go back!

Unfortunately, I didn't have a good experience here. I ended up not staying as the cabin had not been cleaned and was filthy. The location was perfect, secluded and right by the small lake with kayaks and a firepit available to use, and communication with the host was great. So it was really disappointing to find the cabin in the condition it was in. I did receive an apology and full refund from the host which I greatly appreciated.

I loved staying here. It’s a great secluded spot the perfect distance from the farm. you could still hear the animals but it wasn’t so loud that it would wake you up at night. They also let the cows roam freely in the forest near your cabin before dark and it’s very nice to see. The host was very welcoming and kind. They have plenty of helpful utilities included such as an axe, wood stove, bbq, plates, water, even watercraft’s like a canoe and paddle board. The cabin itself was lovely and right by the fantastic little pond with little friendly fish that swim near you. I also took the farm tour and the host was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. A huge bonus was they even have a shop where you can buy fresh eggs, meat, spices and soup kits at affordable prices. If you can’t tell by this review I absolutely loved my stay here. I loved it so much that I already booked it for next weekend!

Julia is a great host! She's super friendly, and accommodating. The cabin is really nice and cozy, and the area to camp is far enough away from the farm that it's nice and private. Lots of things to do as well, like kayak, canoe, fish, swim etc. Absolutely will book again!

We loved everything about the property, from the animals at the farm to the pond. The pond was our absolute favorite part of our trip. It’s absolutely busting with fish my daughter even caught one with just a net. Our hosts were very welcoming and we look forward to staying there again!

First of all Julia is a super host and she makes the best yogurt. The property has boats, fishing nets, gas BBQ , piles of fire woods and the best thing, it was sooooo peaceful. My kids spent the best time ever in the water. I wish I could stay there for a little longer.
A few things were unexpected. The photos showed a plugged in Toaster and Fridge, which gave me an idea of hydro available in the cabin, but there's no hydro. And the bedding were beyond usable. The recycle bean and garbage bucket were overflowing and the cabin was not cleaned after the last camper and not prepared for us at all. Anyone planning to camp there please keep in your mind to bring bedding, lots of cleaning products, big flush lights, enormous amount of bug spray( the flies bites and very painfully itchy), try to sleep in your own tents as the bunk beds have piles of flies and bugs which crawled all over us and me and my husband were busy to keep our children safe all night without any sleep. I had no other choice but to cut our 2 nights stay and left early.
It is a great campsite to spend a very relaxed, peaceful time only if you are prepared properly. Highly recommend this site but with proper preparations.

I really enjoyed my stay at Julia's cabin. The farm tour was very insightful and fun and Julia and the family were very welcoming. The location is peaceful next to nature and a pond. The pond was great to canoe in! Plus there was the bonus of busy farm life nearby. The cabin was sweet and cozy. Would highly recommend.

I love the whole place! From the cabin, to the lake, the trail, the lightings, even the farm is so beautiful to me! And Julia is so thoughtful and responsive, she is a perfect host. Thomas came to me and we had a great conversation. He even offered me a spare bedroom if it’s too freezing at night. I will definitely go back in Spring or Summer.

We enjoyed our stay at Julia's land. The long walks through the surrounding forest was relaxing. We will definitely come back in the summer to take advantage of the sweet little pond. Our night was spent at the firepit. The cabin was charming but a little cold for November weather. Next time we will definitely take the farm tour. Thank you for accepting our last minute booking.

We loved our weekend at the Goose cabin! Julia had the fire going for our arrival and we enjoyed both the wood stove and outdoor fire pit. There was everything you could think of available from bed sheets to cutlery and soap to boats and fishing poles. Plus enjoyed visits from the cows! Highly recommend!!

Julia s is a very rustic experience. The cabin is adorable and cosy warm even in October thanks to the wood-burning stove inside. It sits on the side of an inviting pond we used for kayaking and sitting on the floating dock made us feel like we were at the cottage. We had a fire going day and night. Thanks to the big removable grill we were able to cook all our food out there AND make and heat our morning coffee. Some very funny novelty screwers made cooking hotdogs extra entertaining…for the adult-crowd anyway! I had ordered extra firewood, the breakfast box (with food from the farm itself!), and a farm visit. I d do all that again- really increased our enjoyment of our time spent at The Goose.
Julia and her family are very welcoming. She s a formidable person running an impressive operation with lots of irons in the fire for future farm projects.
The cows milling around the cabin in the evening are charming, the trails intriguing, and the whole experience simply wonderful.
Thanks so much Julia & family!

It was our second visit. We enjoy the privacy of the mini cabin. But most importantly, the dogs can roam around the vincinty of the cabin freely and safely.

I enjoyed staying in the Goose as it certainly beat out a tent for comfort.
Julie and her family were warm and welcoming and the location was relatively centrally located.

This was the second time we've visited The Goose, and it was just as great as the first time. We unfortunately had to cut our trip short due to the heatwave, but we're making plans to go back during a cooler time. Julia is an amazing host, and The Goose is the perfect little rustic getaway if you're looking for some nice relaxation time out of the city.

I was really happy to spend a solo weekend at this cabin with my two dogs. It’s removed enough from the farm for full privacy which is totally what I needed. It is the perfect place to unwind. That said, they also rent this area to RVs and their presence definitely changes the vibe - I personally would only rent this space when no RVs are coming. The cabin is large enough for 1-2 people, the bed is comfy and the pond is glorious. There is room for a few tents for sure and this would be a really nice group camping spot. The cooking situation isn't optimal so I recommend bringing your cooking gear as you would for camping (stove, pots, pans, cooking utensils, oil, spices, etc). Julia is highly responsive and everyone I met was really kind. I purchased the farm breakfast bundle and would definitely recommend that as well. Probably enough breakfast for 2 people for 2 mornings and the sausages are SO GOOD.

This is such a great space! Peaceful, beautiful scenery, with everything you could need included on site! Yes, there’s mouse poop and bugs in the cabin - you’re camping on a farm, silly!
One thing to note: there is an electric fence that surrounds the camp area, which was not marked or advertised when we were there. We discovered this when our poor dog ran into it. :( it’s a low voltage and he’s fine, but just something to watch out for as I’m sure it wasn’t very fun for him!

We absolutely loved this stay! We read all the reviews and honestly this was the best Hipcamp we have been to thus far. We’re there some mouse droppings? Yes, did I set my expectations to understand this is a camping experience on a farm? also yes. There’s a broom it sweeps away. The most recent review stated there’s an additional campsite that’s not listed. This is true. We were disappointed at first but we positioned our tents so you couldn’t see the RV and honestly wasn’t worth complaining over. The swimming was so refreshing! Bring water shoes as it’s a natural swimming hole so there’s seaweed. They let us wander around the farm and meet the cows, bunnies, chickens and chickies! We really loved it. They also offer extra packages with food or wood etc. We purchased wood and they left us more than we needed it was great! They did much better than a $10 bag from the store. The solar lights were the perfect touch to sitting around the fire. The outhouse was clean and instructions were clear. We have already agreed we want to go back! Oh and it’s pet friendly! Our dogs said hello to their dog without any concerns. Just be sure to 💩 and scoop! They provided garbage and recycle so you don’t have to pack out 😊

This is our second time staying at The Goose. Julia is an excellent hostess. Everything was ready when we arrived. They have a cute cabin with bunkers. We chose to sleep in our tent just because. The man made pond is wonderful and I did manage to catch a few fish. Put them back so they can grow. This year they have a couple more spots. Was unexpected but ok. The quiet wasn't as quiet but still peaceful enough. When you leave you may see a wire across the road, just unhook it, drive over it then put it back up. Will definitely go back.
