Campgrounds and RV parks near Wakefield, NB

Wakefield is a dispersed rural community in Carleton County, New Brunswick, sitting along Route 103 by the Saint John River about 9 km southeast of Hartland. The area is anchored by the town of Woodstock a short drive south, and it functions as a convenient RV base for the upper Saint John River Valley and the nearby Maine border. Most campgrounds used by Wakefield-bound travellers cluster around Woodstock and Hartland. Connell City Park sits at 120 Connell Park Road in Woodstock with 153 sites, and Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park™ Camp-Resort: Woodstock is a short drive away for families looking for a resort-style stay. Farther afield, River Country Campground and Mariner’s Point RV Park cover the valley to the north. Cross-border trips are common here. The Houlton / Canadian Border KOA Journey is the closest KOA to the Maine-Canadian border, with mostly full hook-up pull-thru sites for large RVs and tent sites for campers who prefer to sleep out. That mix of private resorts and quieter parks makes the region workable for families, retirees, and travellers passing through on the Trans-Canada corridor.

Private campgrounds near Wakefield are booked directly through each operator. The Houlton / Canadian Border KOA Journey takes reservations through the KOA website or by phone, and Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park™ Camp-Resort: Woodstock books through its own site. Connell City Park, River Country Campground, and Mariner’s Point RV Park each handle their own bookings, typically by phone or online form. Seasonal sites at the Houlton KOA fill early, so summer weekends should be locked in months ahead. For provincial park sites elsewhere in New Brunswick, the official NB Parks reservation portal offers real-time availability. Cross-border travellers should carry passports or NEXUS cards and confirm current CBSA and CBP rules for propane, firewood, and pets before crossing at the Woodstock or Houlton ports of entry.
