Set in the forested hills of Sussex, New Brunswick, Hillside Haven is a cozy cabin retreat where outdoor adventure, small-town charm, and star-filled night skies come together beautifully. Whether you’re carving fresh tracks at Poley Mountain, pedalling nearby trails, or simply craving a peaceful escape beneath the stars, this hideaway delivers year-round magic—day and night.
Just 1.25 km from Poley Mountain, Hillside Haven is perfectly positioned for winter ski and snowboard trips and summer mountain biking adventures. After an active day outdoors, return to the calm of the woods, where evenings slow down, and the sky takes center stage. With minimal light pollution and crisp rural air, the night skies here are ideal for stargazing. Step outside, look up, and reconnect with the cosmos—on clear nights, constellations shine brightly, and meteor showers feel wonderfully close.
The cabin itself is charming and intentionally simple, designed for comfort and privacy. Inside, you’ll find a warm, welcoming space with a queen bed and a single bed in the loft, making it well-suited for couples, solo travellers, or small families. All spaces are private and exclusively yours. Please note that the loft stairs are steep, and children should be supervised.
For those blending work and wanderlust, Hillside Haven makes it easy. Starlink WiFi keeps you connected for remote work or streaming, while the serene surroundings help you truly disconnect once you close the laptop.
Outside, enjoy the peaceful woodland setting and, in warmer months, unwind by the fire pit under the stars (available at guests’ discretion during winter). Pets are welcome with a small fee, so your four-legged companions can enjoy the adventure too.
Just minutes from Sussex’s family-owned eateries, cozy coffee shops, and top attractions—like Parlee Brook Amphitheatre, Friar’s Nose Lookout, and the Sussex Bluff Trail. Hillside Haven is a perfectly placed basecamp for exploration, relaxation, and unforgettable nights under New Brunswick’s dark skies.
Perfect for: Beginners to advanced astronomers, astrophotography, nightscape and Milky Way photography, couples, families and nature lovers!
