Maison Touristique Dugas

New Brunswick


Five generations of the ultra-friendly Dugas family have run this rambling, something-for-everyone property, 8km west of Caraquet. The homey, antique-filled 1926 house has 11 rooms, four with shared bathrooms. There are also five clean, cozy cabins with private bathrooms and cooking facilities, a guesthouse with private and family rooms, and a quiet, tree-shaded campground.
