About this space
Located on the Miramichi River headwaters, this 5 acre oasis borders Irving’s immense central NB forestry holdings. The water usually runs cool and clear plus you’ll enjoy the fantastic dark night sky. Pass quiet hours in a screened porch rocking chair & catch an occasional train passing by (avg. 4-6 daily). With a huge front lawn, guests will also appreciate the lengthy river frontage and 2 large ponds. Enjoy the seasonal hiking, biking, quading, foraging, snowmobiling, fishing & hunting.
The space
Welcome to your fortress of solitude on the pristine water of the Miramichi River headwaters. You’ll love the private, large space outside as well as comfortable 1100 sq feet inside. The wide screened front porch with its’ panoramic river view will be the ideal way to start that perfect vacation morning! Head out on miles of quiet woods roads. See the tree farm greenhouses on your walk to the small airport. Head out on the hundreds of miles of off-road trails or take a canoe/kayak trip to the picnic grounds (approx 4 hours).

The building was constructed by the owner of a large lumber mill owner and the lot selected for the salmon fishing access. You’ll enjoy a large space with 3 bedrooms and few (3) entrance stairs to navigate as everything is on a single level. A well equipped kitchen awaits your culinary preparation skills. The rocking chairs in the screened porch and a multitude of songbirds, in season, will help to melt those stressors away.

Spin a few records on the turntable or try your voice out on the karaoke system to round out your day.
Guest access
The adjacent shed is shared with neighbour and not available for use.
Other things to note
The neighbouring property is seldom used but please be respectful of their privacy if present.

Occupation is strictly limited to 6 people and pets are not to be left unattended.

I have a canoe available for use and there are water toys in the backyard pump shed which is kept unlocked.

Water and railroad tracks close by the cottage so remain vigilant when children and pets are out playing. The railroad bank is steep and bushy so access can be difficult for little folks.
