The cabin is a 5-minute walk from the Trans Canada RailTrail which grants easy access for longer bike rides, runs, hikes, and four-wheeler adventures. You’ll walk through a horse pasture and a cow pasture on your way to the cabin. There is a large farm pond (10ft deep) on the property for swimming. Enjoy access to locally-sourced food, firewood (at a small fee) drinking water, a private firepit, gas BBQ (bring your own gas!), and our old-fashioned wood-fired cook stove.

Sasha's Sanctuary

1 site · RV, Tent15 acres · Mates Corner, NB
Hi! My name is Sasha! I'm a 10-year-old Black Lab! I know what you’re thinking, an old dog can't learn new tricks but here I am! Hip Camp Hooray! My unique, 15-acre home is a sanctuary away from all the hustle and bustle of dog-eat-dog life! It truly is my little piece of paradise, and I can’t help but want to share it with you! My favorite part is the 3-acre natural swimming quarry!! I love to cool off on those stifling hot summer days, nothing better! Your site is cozied right up to the edge of my beautiful pond with a freshly sodded soft spot for your tent and nestled behind a large hill (with your own driveway entrance) to make sure your stay is as secluded and serene as possible! My Mom and Dad, Pamela & Christoph, have built you a fancy new outhouse only steps away so no need to relieve yourself in some old bucket, forest hole (unless it’s a squirrel hole!🙁) or tall grass! They also have a sitting area set up! Feel free to walk my 20 minute loop around the pond, past peaceful fields and through sheltered paths that lead you right back to your site! All that walking keeps me 10 years young! Afterwards you can snuggle in beside the firepit I dug and I’ll even fetch you some sticks for your cozy bon fire! Nights are super relaxing with mirror still waters and dark night star gazing! I'm super pumped to share it with you! (Your little friends are welcome too, as naturally we are furry friendly.) Oh yeah, my Parents said don’t forget to tell you two things; We are in Straight Shores, Rural Southeast NB, 1km off Highway 15. We are centrally located within 20 minutes or less of NS, PEI, Sackville and Shediac, 35 minutes from big Ol Moncton and within 5-10 minutes of the villages of Port Elgin and Cap Pele! (Blah, Blah, Blah....Not that you’ll want to go anywhere after setting up in heaven! 😉 ) A canoe and/or fishing rods are available upon request for an additional fee of $5/canoe, $5/rods! Super deal for real! (My brother said star gazing at night in the canoe is incredible with the stars reflecting in the water! And the pond is stocked full of small mouth bass! I’ve tried to catch those little basses myself but just can’t swim quick enough! You’ll have much better luck with my Dad’s rods!) Don’t forget this old dog is full of new tricks so I welcome your feedback and suggestions on how to make my little piece of paradise even more perfect! Off to collect those bon fire sticks for ya! All YOU have to do now is click ‘Reserve’ and get your tails here to relax and chill! See you soon! Cheers, Sasha
