Rothesay blends riverfront beauty, walkable streets, and a relaxed pace with quick access to urban amenities. Minutes from Saint John and set within Kings County, the town offers a mix of heritage homes and modern builds, leafy parks, and a lively local dining scene along Hampton Road. Neighboring Quispamsis and Hampton add even more shopping, markets, and recreation, while the Town of Rothesay keeps community programming, trails, and seasonal events running smoothly year-round.
Weekends here often revolve around the water. Launch a paddleboard at Renforth, take sailing lessons at the Rothesay Yacht Club, or tee off with Kennebecasis River views at the Riverside Country Club. Winter brings outdoor skating on the Rothesay Common and cozy café stops nearby. The town’s trail network, beaches, and playgrounds make it easy to plan impromptu family outings, and commuters appreciate the short, scenic drive into the city.
Education is a standout, from well-regarded public schools to the globally minded Rothesay Netherwood School, an independent day and boarding school known for academics, athletics, and outdoor education. Whether you’re drawn by historic estates shaded by mature trees or new, family-friendly neighborhoods close to parks, Rothesay offers a polished balance of comfort and convenience.
