      Seems closed...
      There was no one around the property when we got there. The locals said it was closed. The field was open so we stayed there as we had paid. We never saw anyone and when we called the number given they hung up on me. A lovely location, but wouldn’t recommend unless you can confirm it is ok with the owner.

      We had a great time staying on Anton's land for 6 nights. We used his spot as a great jumping off point for day tours. The Metapedia River is stunning and makes for great sight-seeing. We biked, hiked and kayak'd all over the area. We have a 26' foot 5th wheel and an F150 long box. Manouvering on Anton's land was tight for our size. I think a 20' (or smaller) camper would be more suited for getting in and out of the sites that Anton has to offer. By far the best part of staying on Anton's land was Anton himself. He is an incredible human being. He was interesting and very generous with his time and assistance.

      Anton was very accommodating and responsive. I just needed a place to spend the night on my way from Quebec City to Halifax and this have me exactly that. Unfortunately I arrived late and left early so I didn’t have much chance to explore the property.
