Eel River Crossing rewards residents with coastal scenery, friendly streets, and quick access to services as part of the town of Heron Bay. Set in Restigouche County near the Restigouche River and the Bay of Chaleur, it offers an inviting balance of quiet living and regional convenience, with commutes to Campbellton and Dalhousie measured in minutes. The community also shares deep ties with the Mi’kmaq of the Ugpi’ganjig Eel River Bar First Nation, whose cultural gatherings and shoreline access add meaning to everyday life.
Weekends tend to fill themselves. Mountain bikers and skiers head to Sugarloaf Provincial Park, while anglers and paddlers chase sunsets along local rivers and coves. Birders keep an eye on migration along the coast near Charlo, and travelers appreciate the convenience of Charlo Regional Airport. A distinctive piece of local industry, the Eel River Converter Station, remains part of the story of New Brunswick’s grid, a legacy of NB Power.
Families will find schooling options in both English and French through the Anglophone North School District and the District scolaire francophone Nord-Est, with programs that reflect the area’s bilingual roots. Recreation programming, public works, and permitting are coordinated by the Town of Heron Bay, keeping amenities within easy reach.
