Are you looking for the best places to stay in the greater Fundy National Park area? We will cover campgrounds, motels, cottages, and Airbnb’s in and around West River, Alma, and Albert County. This radius is perfect for a visit to Fundy National Park, Hopewell Rocks, or Cape Enrage.

**There are even two local beaches in our area that are perfect for long walks when the tide is out. (Waterside Beach and Dennis Beach).

Here is our list of the top 10 places to stay in and around Fundy National Park.

Glamping campgrounds

1. West River Camping

We are starting right here in West River at our very own Glamping Campground, where we offer a more private and relaxed atmosphere than most campgrounds. Our washrooms are the cleanest you will find in Atlantic Canada (check reviews to confirm this) and we offer a variety of campsites that suit all types of campers.

Our pride and joy is our Jacob Boy boat rental which is an old fishing boat turned into an Airbnb accommodation. It was a lot of work, but it is perfect for families that want an experience they will never forget.

We also offer a Glamping cabin and two domes, all of which have their own private hot tub, Bell Tents, Rustic Cabins, and of course RV and tent sites.

We are the only campground/accommodation on Google in the area with roughly 180 reviews, 4.8/5 ratings, and many discuss what they loved about their stay.
