Lots of board games & books available too. Sauna on-site too. This can be lite up for an additional fee but we need to know 2 days in advance. Towels can be provided.
We are excited to announce that we now have a cob (wood fired earthen oven) on-site which perfects the baking of bread, pizza , "Treatzas", and cinnamon buns. If there is a fire ban, this is still an option but pizzas will be cooked in our 1924 wood cook stove from Sackville, New Brunswick.
All pizzas are prepared by hand with a speciality dough (made over 2 days) and fresh ingredients (local where possible). If you wish to enjoy a oven baked pizza for supper, please let us know. A minimum of 4 days notice is required for pizza orders with full payment upon order. No exceptions! Minimum order for 2 x 12" pizzas & the experience is $70.00 + GST. Additional pizzas are $30.00 each. Children age 2 to 10 can opt for a small (6") pizza for $14.00 each. All others are treated as an adult. One pizza / person.
The picnic shelter is available for food preparation (includes BBQ, Coleman Stove, wood cook stove, dishes, cutlery, pots, wash bins, and detergent). We ask that the shelter be left as you found it.
Firewood: $25.00 / bundle (5-6 pieces of averaged sized firewood (5-6" diameter x 18").
Guest access
Enjoy an evening stroll up into the "back 40" acres or simply tour the barnyard and meet and greet all the 2 and 4 legged animals that make Moose Meadows Farm their home.
We ask that our guests do NOT invite their guests to our property / home without discussing it with us first. We may allow for 1 - 2 adult guests.
During your stay
Both Heloise and Ted, your hosts, are able to provide you with information on the area and make some recommendations on places to visit that are close by. Many beautiful lakes, rivers, and trails in the area along with well known historic sites.
Other things to note
Staying on a farm can be exciting. There are many 2 and 4 legged critters to spend time with. These animals can also be vocal. Roosters do crow at night sometimes as do geese honk and donkeys bray. We try to encourage our animal friends to be considerate of our guests who stay the night but sometimes they feel the need to vocalise.
Although the Groom's Quarters has many modern conveniences and is very comfortable, there is plumbed in running water on-site.
