Roosevelt Campobello International Park, located on Campobello Island in New Brunswick, is a one-of-a-kind attraction shared by Canada and the United States. This park, which spans approximately 2,800 acres, features 11 hiking trails, scenic coastal views, and a historic red cottage that was used by the Roosevelt family during their summer vacations. The park is jointly managed by both countries, with each contributing equally to its development, operation, and maintenance since 1964.

The park's centerpiece is the 34-room summer cottage, meticulously preserved to reflect its appearance during the Roosevelt family's visits. Visitors can explore the park, take guided tours of the cottage, or enjoy events such as FDR Happy Hour, where they can partake in high tea or cocktails accompanied by live music. Admission to the park and the historic cottage is free, making it a perfect spot for a peaceful afternoon.

For expats and digital nomads in Toronto, Roosevelt Campobello International Park offers a unique opportunity to experience a slice of history and nature. The park is open year-round, with the buildings closing for the 2026 season on October 17th. This makes it a must-visit for those interested in exploring the area's natural beauty and learning about the history of the Roosevelt family.
