I bought my home on this 4 acre lot right down to the water in 2012. It has been some time that I’ve wanted to create a living space closer to the beach to enjoy. I finally accomplished that dream five years ago. I am opening it up to guests so that you too can enjoy this beautiful natural private beach and unique experience of the countryside where I live!

Choose from our two options: bring your own tent and stay in the Apple Orchard or just toss your sleeping bag into our Cozy Camper tents. No muss, no fuss - the work is done for you!
Just outside Blackville Village limits, far enough away to have all the nature you need but close enough to pop into the village for ice cream or drinks. We spot Bald Eagles, Geese, Ducks and Deer right in our backyard. And if that isn't enough we have a organic family farm so you can visit with chickens, pigs and cows.
Relax in the wood fire sauna and shower off in nature in the fun outdoor shower.
We have several groomed trails to hike, bike, snowshoe, and cross country ski down. A stocked pond to fish in, take out our little boat for a float or just stroll about and watch our resident beaver swimming around.
Town is a five minute drive and you will find a grocery store, ice cream stand, bank, gas station(with nb liquour) and even an awesome thrift shop just one town over in Renous. Venture around the village and you will find horseback riding, river tubing, bridge jumping into the Dungarvon River, and boating on the Miramichi with world class salmon fishing. The city of Miramichi is about a 30 minute drive and has lots of museums and fun things to do.
PLEASE NOTE: We have working livestock dogs on the property and pets must be on a leash at all times.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Ocean River RV Park - has been about 10 years since we were there last, and the new ownership have really made some great improvements! Chris and Almut were very welcoming and professional, and we were to happy to see that they now sell ice cream and beer in their clubhouse! The washrooms were clean and modern, the tent campsites were nicely spaced apart and well treed, with patches of blueberries dotted around the place. Really loved walking along the beach running along the Tabusintac river, and they have canoe and kayak rentals available, which we will definitely do next time we're there!

Evan is building a great little campground. We were very happy with our stay! We really loved the fact that there was rental trailers there so that our friends could camp with us for the weekend. They had a lot of toys available for kids, which was great for our group. The sites were very clean and nice and level! The firepits were a really nice size too! Evan and his family were very nice and he checked in on us a couple times just to make sure we had everything we needed. Overall great experience and great weekend! We will be back for sure!

The whole experience was really over the top wonderful. I arrived at 8:30 pm and the openers were there to meet me and welcoming me to their camp site. Registration was just a couple of minutes and was personally shown to my bunkie and introduced to its features. Excellent experience and wow what a good nights sleep in that exceptional queen bed.
Exceptional experience and hospitable owners,….. I cannot say enough. I give them and the bulkier 5 stars !

Overview
About
Step into the pastoral beauty of MacDonald Farm Provincial Park, where history and nature intertwine to offer a unique adventure. Here, visitors can immerse themselves in the rich Scottish heritage of the area, explore the restored 19th-century farmstead, and wander through the scenic walking trails that offer a glimpse into New Brunswick's vibrant past.
When to go
The ideal time to visit MacDonald Farm Provincial Park is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and the park's full splendour is on display. Winters can be harsh, so it's less advisable to visit from December to February.
Know before you go
- Check the park's operating hours before your visit, as they may vary seasonally.
- Wear comfortable footwear suitable for walking on uneven terrain.
- Bring along insect repellent, especially during the warmer months.
- Be mindful of the park's historical significance and treat structures with respect.
- Facilities such as washrooms and picnic areas are available, but it's wise to confirm their accessibility ahead of time.
