Gagetown (Arcadia)

Nestled along the bank of the Saint John River, the village of Gagetown is a gem worth discovering. Birdwatching, boating, shopping and dining are all here. If history and genealogy are your interests, the Queens County Historical Society has two museums and a wealth of information about the families and history of the area. Gagetown's founders' chosen strategic location has proven ideal for birdwatching. Being on one of North America's migration flight paths, and having a wide variety of natural habitats in the area, make this a birder's paradise. If arriving by water, Gagetown is an ideal destination or a perfect stopover. Boaters will find supplies within easy reach of the water. If land-based activities are more your style, galleries and craft studios, antique and gift shops abound. Be sure to make a visit to our open air summer and fall farmers market a part of your stay. Enjoy an excellent meal in a pub or restaurant and spend the night!
