The Hide Away Lodge is located at 4104 Route 122, in the community of North Lake in southwestern York County, New Brunswick, Canada.

As you can see from the map above, we are located both in the community of North Lake and on North Lake itself.

To get to the Hide Away Lodge by Boat:

From the deck out front of Hide Away Lodge, the mouth of Monument Brook is visible about a mile across the eastern end of North Lake. Along with Monument Brook, the Chiputneticook Lakes form the headwaters of the St. Croix River, the physical international boundary between northeastern Maine and western New Brunswick.

The "Thoroughfare" is a connecting waterway between North Lake and East Grand Lake.  It is easily boatable (except during the lowest water in late fall) and is used by our boating and fishing guests to get to and from 16 mile long East Grand Lake, the third largest lake in Maine.

North Lake is the northernmost of five Chiputneticook lakes and is almost entirely in New Brunswick.  Known for its fishing, the Lake is home to landlocked salmon, small mouth bass and white perch.

Drive to the Hide Away Lodge by Car:

We are about 60 miles southwest of Fredericton, NB. 

The Trans-Canadian Highway is about 20 miles east of North Lake. If you use it, take the Meductic exit and follow Route 122 west to our driveway.

We're a six hour drive north from Boston and a two hour drive northeast from Bangor, Maine. 

We are only about two hours drive north of the Bay of Fundy, Saint John, St. Stephen, NB, the Gulf of Maine (Atlantic Ocean) and the Downeast Maine coastline.

To drive to the Port of Entry at Fosterville, NB from the Bangor International Airport:

Get directions to and take US Interstate 95 north about 40 miles to Exit 227 for Lincoln, ME.

Go east a couple miles to and across the Penobscot River to Maine Route 6 and then left, east, through Lincoln. 

Go another 15 miles to the junction with Maine Route 169 in Springfield, ME, turning left, north, onto Route 169.

Proceed about 30 miles on Route 169 northeast to Danforth then another 12 miles north on US Route 1 to Orient, ME.

From Orient, Maine, we are only four miles inside the New Brunswick border.  Use the remote International Port of Entry which runs east from Orient, ME across the border into Fosterville, NB. (Note: this Port of Entry is only open sixteen hours a day in summer and eleven hours a day between Labor Day and Memorial Day.) 

After passing the MILLION DOLLAR VIEW (you'll know it when you see it on your right) then two small lakes also on your right, start to watch for a road sign to Fosterville, NB.

Exit off US Route 1 onto Schoolhouse Road.

Pass Peters Cove Road on your right and take the next paved road, Boundary Road, about 3 miles to and across the bridge to the Fosterville Port of Entry into Canada.

Check in with Canada Customs (declare booze, tobacco and long firearms if you have any...Mace and handguns are prohibited and are subject to confiscation) and when you're released, continue east on NB Route 122 (which is the extension of Boundary Road once you get across the bridge) through Fosterville about four final miles. When you see the green "North Lake" sign at the top of a rise, slow down...we're the first driveway on the left (there's a large sign).
