Trip 'n Daisy and their little shih tzu McGee live in rural New Brunswick, nestled on 50 acres of mostly forested land. We treasure where we live, the long winding country roads, the pristine lakes and rivers nearby. We live in nature and respect it. Wildlife is abundant and being on a game trail we regularly see wild turkeys, porcupines, raccoons, skunk, fox, coyote, deer, moose, bear and whatever else mosey's on by! Bring a camera, you never know who might come to visit! Along the Chiputneticook lakes and river crossings, there are multiple lakes near by and a creeks and rivers that used to be used as the main method of transportation of food and goods along the way - from the Saint John River to the St. Croix River, there is much history and many untouched areas that remain mostly in their natural state. We are located 2 minutes (drive) near East Grand Lake, we are on Forest City Road, Fosterville, which is located between 2 border crossings - Fosterville, NB/Orient, ME and Forest City, NB/Forest City, ME. So whether you are heading to or from the USA, or exploring New Brunswick you can find us here! We are about 1 hour from Woodstock, NB, 1.5 hours from Fredericton, NB, 45 minutes from Houlton, ME or 25 to Danforth, ME. We are about 2.5 hours to Edmunston, NB and the Quebec border crossing, 3 hours to Moncton or Saint John, NB. You can access many trails to hike, bike, ATV, walk. There are many lakes/rivers to swim, boat, kayak or canoe. Book a space - you can rent our Aliner Hippie Peace and Love Shack OR our vintage 1973 Golden Falcon which has been tripped out '60's style! You can bring an RV or trailer - max 30 feet - we find that A Class motor homes are often too big or heavy so don't recommend them. We have 3 spaces for RV's trailers that belong to YOU! On our property you will be surrounded by ash and pine trees. A large weeping willow. There is an outhouse available, garbage and recycling, if in an RV or trailer we have 3 spots that provide 30amp power and water is available by hose to fill up if needed. Tents - we have many spaces but your location will be your choice, find a nice spot, that is flat. The outhouse is available. There are no showers on site at this time, however, the lake is lovely! This is a rustic, restful place for quiet, respite, sharing community and being a trippie hippie! We are starting out offering 6 tenting sites - you choose your site upon arrival. We have an arts/craft gallery on site as well as a darts room for a rainy night! Wifi and cell service are not available here, if you are on US roaming you can get service and some cell providers provide spotty service. There is a public wifi location 5 minutes away if you need to connect. We have a landline for emergencies. Trip 'n Daisy have traveled throughout Atlantic Canada including Newfoundland in their vintage Hippie Hangout 1973 Golden Falcon - it is now available to rent - you can sleep 2 to 3 people comfortably in the space. It is decked out with a cool '60's vibe - hand painted inside and out with Trip's artful flair and includes a toilet, sinks, fridge, cooktop, water, table/dinette that flips into the second bed. Dishes/pots/basic cooking needs, etc. They also towed their Aliner pop up trailer - the Hippie Peace; Love Shack. It includes an RV size double bed, suitable for a couple as well as a dinette that folds into a second single bed. There is a fridge, cooktop and table/dinette that flips into a second single bed. There is no toilet but we have added a cassette toilet for you, for night use, and there is water in the space. Again, we recommend you bring your own bedding but we can supply for an additional fee. We do have access to Electric Vehicle charging - either a wall outlet Level 1 or a Level 2 charger - which is free for 2 hours or for a fee for longer charges. We have lawn furniture on the grounds to share and to use around the communal fire pit. Fire pit in one location only and based on current fire rules/bans. There are NO stores or gas stations nearby, so please ensure you fill up with supplies/fuel before venturing down the country road! Full details on site location and instructions for driving will be supplied upon booking. Due to wildlife in the area we REQUIRE that ALL food is put away at night and during the day when not eating. If you are tenting please bring a secure cooler and place in locked vehicles at night. We have a dog and he is ALWAYS on leash - if you bring a dog - you MUST ALWAYS pick up after it (our dog does not use our yard as a toilet, so we prefer yours doesn't either); dogs must be on leash and/or in a secure fenced area. This is not only for our dogs safety, but for yours, remember wildlife! as British Columbian transplants, we love this property and home and hope that you have a great experience as well! When camping we will always have one person available if you need us! Many people like to call this a home base as they travel across the USA border for day trips or to shop! Feel free to do so! Because Trip 'n Daisy are trippy hippies and enjoy nature, we recommend adults are most suitable for this site. Peace and love, Trip 'n Daisy Feel free to message with any questions, the more information you have, the better!

Unplug at Branigan Farm, a 75-acre working creative homestead with a dirt road running through it. It sits in New Brunswick’s St. John River Valley, near Florenceville-Bristol — the “French Fry Capital of the World." It’s a quietly creative corner of New Brunswick: visit the Andrew and Laura McCain Art Gallery, walk or bike the NB Trail along the river, paddle the Saint John, wander Potato World and the restored Shogomoc railway station, or walk a covered bridge and a farm market. After dark, the skies out here are wonderfully clear for stargazing.

We really enjoyed our stay at Marine's Point RV Campground. A beautiful, peaceful camp overlooking the St. John River. The grounds were well groomed and quiet (for a busy weekend). The hosts are friendly and helpful. We already been recommending the camp to other campers we've met on our trip.

Weekend Trip to The Old Canoe

Amazing property! The bus is so cool and constructed with care, making great use of recycled and upcycled materials. The shore/waterfront is delightful, and I was able to do a lot of fishing. There are so many little amenities that take this place to the next level—games, firewood for sale, watercraft down at the shore, and walking paths… just to name a few! Charlotte is an excellent and conscientious host who goes the extra mile to ensure you have a wonderful experience. I would definitely go back!

Weekend Trip to Branigan Farm Creative Centre

I honestly can't say enough good things about this place—we want to book another trip right now! Jaime and Patrick were amazing hosts who thought of every single detail, right down to leaving us a sweet anniversary card and treats, bringing us freezies, and stocking essentials like bug spray. The tent was adorable, the compost toilet was super clean with no smell, and the outdoor shower was incredible (a little bench under the towel hooks for clothes is the only tiny addition I could ever think of!). The property is so peaceful—we spent our time picking wildflowers, eating berries, and watching local wildlife (frogs, birds, a hare, and a momma bear with her cub!). Stargazing here is unreal, and we even caught a shooting star in the clear night sky. Can't wait to come back and bring our friends next time!

Super quick & easy booking and stay! The trailer is absolutely adorable and was perfect for me, my husband, and my one-year old (we brought our own pack'n'play crib which fit right near the bench in the camper). The outdoor fairy lights were adorable at night, the campfire pit is a good size, and there were even deer feeding on the apples in the morning! Even though it was close to the highway, and right outside a few residences, it's still quite private. Thank you for the accomodations!

A beautiful experience from beginning to end. Charlotte was wonderful to communicate with. I was travelling from Minnesota to PEI and her Hipcamp was the perfect stop for a camping break while still camping. If I lived in New Brunswick I would love to spend a weekend there. Charlotte has created so many outdoor spaces to spend time, provided outdoor games, kayaks, trails to explore, and so much more. Every detail was provided. After being on the road for 3 weeks it was nice to have a comfortable nights sleep and feel taken care of. The outdoor shower was wonderful. I highly recommend - would be great as an artists retreat!

We loved Amanda’s little hideaway trailer! The space felt very private. Everything we needed was there, and Amanda was quick to answer any questions we had! The grounds were lovely, the pool and hot tub were available when we wanted to use them. I have nothing bad to say about our experience! Thank you Amanda for accommodating our group!

We loved our stay at the "Main Street Bus"! Charlotte the host was very welcoming and helpful. They have everything you would need there, just bring food! Peaceful location, the water is just down a path and we went out in one of the canoes, and then tried kayaking the next day. Little things like cute signs arou d the property, decorations in the bus, and fairy lights everywhere at night just made it special. We brought camping gear and didnt need any of it apart from the camping stove. Also the best decorated (and clean) outhouse I've ever seen! Definately worth a stay. Wish we had have stayed 2 nights rather than just the 1. We also loved relaxing in the hammocks! Would love to go back. It's clear that Charlotte takes pride in giving people a unique and memorable experience.😊

We loved how cute the little cabin was and especially how the outhouse didn't seem like an outhouse at all. Had kayaks and canoes down by the water for us to use. We would definitely book another night away here.
