Enjoy fresh veggies from the garden and have the comforts of home with use of a large picbic table outside or dining table in the yurt. Guests are welcome to sleep in the yurt on a first come/first serve basis at no extra charge to make camping easy. The toilet and shower located in our home are open for you to use as needed. WIFI can be used on the porch or if you are parking an RV near the house. I work from home sewing Hanging HUGS custom luxury hammocks and can teach you how to sew your own, or offer what I have in stock. An expedition sea kayaker and expert rock climber, with more than 25 years experience giving clients a unique look at our province, it's my pleasure to introduce you to favourite spots. We also own an off-grid camping area 45 minutes south close to Fundy Trail Provincial Park and have made a hiking trail to an epic location which I have been developing for rock climbing over 10 years. Pull a kayak to the river in ten minutes or try a loop trail around the property on a fat bike. You could easily fill a weekend here with outdoor activities and make memories you'll never forget.

📌 NOTE TO ALL HIPCAMPERS: If you message us through Hipcamp, please know we’re not online often — we’re usually outside tending the land! Rest assured: we will always make sure you have a place to spend the night, guaranteed — or your stay is free. Visit our Facebook page: Shannon Farmstead What to Expect When You Stay With Us If you’re longing to disconnect from the insanity which has become our world, come visit our family-run farmstead. Switch off your devices and sink into nature’s balanced harmony — fresh air, quiet trails, and star-filled skies await. Conveniently located in rural New Brunswick, our farmstead is about an hour’s drive from three major cities and the stunning Fundy Coast. Here, rolling hills of wildflowers open into forested trails perfect for a peaceful hike or a casual wander. When the sun goes down, the star gazing is spectacular — with almost zero light pollution, our night skies rival those of the open prairies. Cool off in the summer at Belyea’s Cove or Crafts Cove, just a 10-minute drive away — both ideal for swimming and boat launching. Albright Brook runs right through the property, offering hidden sit-spots to relax, meditate, or cast a line for trout in season. Within five minutes you’ll find two waterfalls worth exploring, and just 15 minutes away, the fully stocked country store in Cambridge-Narrows has beer, wine, and spirits for your evening by the campfire. Hungry for more? Country-style restaurants serving hearty roadhouse meals are just 20 minutes from our gate.
