Campgrounds and RV parks near Campbellton, NB

Campbellton sits at the mouth of the Restigouche River in northern New Brunswick, across from the Gaspé Peninsula in Quebec. The city looks out over the junction of Chaleur Bay and the Restigouche River, with Sugarloaf Mountain's 305-metre summit rising above town and the rolling hills of the Gaspé Peninsula visible across the water. This is the Appalachian corner of the province, and it functions as a natural staging point for RV trips into both New Brunswick and eastern Quebec. The closest campground is Sugarloaf Provincial Park Campground, at the base of the mountain inside city limits. The family-friendly campground has 79 sites, with 8 full-serviced, 60 electrical, and 11 non-serviced. Inch Arran Trailer Park sits along the shore in nearby Dalhousie, and Camping Aux Flots Bleus offers additional riverside options in the Restigouche area. For RV renters willing to drive inland, Armstrong Brook - Mount Carleton Provincial Park sits below the highest peak in the Maritimes, and Camping Causapscal chez Moose provides a Quebec-side base along the salmon rivers of the Matapedia valley.

New Brunswick's provincial parks, including Sugarloaf and Mount Carleton, are reserved through the Parks NB online reservation system at reservations.parcsnbparks.ca or by phone. Reservations for the summer season typically open in the spring, and campers are encouraged to book early given the popularity of both parks. For private parks like Inch Arran Trailer Park and Camping Aux Flots Bleus, book directly with the operator. Quebec-side options such as Camping Causapscal chez Moose use private booking channels; confirm site length and hookup type against the RV rental before arrival. Holders of longer RV rentals should filter for full-service or pull-through sites, which are limited at Sugarloaf and effectively absent at Mount Carleton, where there are no electric or water hookups.
