Roosevelt Campobello Int. Park | Maine into Canada!

Roosevelt Campobello International Park preserves the house and surrounding landscape of the summer retreat of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his family. It is located on the southern tip of Campobello Island in the Canadian province of New Brunswick. My daughter and I visited this unique National Park in July of 2019.

[@glennaddison952]

One predominate thought comes to mind: Your daughter will never forget this day!

[@AmericasParks]

We have fun at the time, but that's always in the back of my mind. Time moves quick.

[@amylipkin2116]

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! THEY ARE NOT LONG ENOUGH!!

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks so much, Amy! Do appreciate the feedback - always feel like I will bore people if they are too long! lol! :)

[@potatothorn]

the "fun tour" // "what's your scale /" ughhhh.. //we love seeing Maine with you... excellent you got to see the High Tides/ i grew up vacationing in Parrsoboro, NS where The Highest tides are. Have not been to this Park, but lots of very similar areas a lot of fun to see it again... really neat the Park straddles the border. also great to see the town and surroundings, and the lupines !!

[@AmericasParks]

Very happy to hear how the Maine vids are bringing back fine memories for you. It really is a beautiful state and those tidal changes are unreal - our tidal fluctuations are only a fraction of that here in NJ.

[@boscomac2434]

I remember climbing down the ladders and crossing the bridge out to the lighthouse. There was a older lady (~83 years old) that did this every day to host tours of the house. She offered my wife and I coffee if we sat on the porch and talked for a spell. Lovely place. Too bad you didn’t have tea with Eleanor, the cookies were delicious!

[@AmericasParks]

Super-cool, Michael! Glad to hear you've been there and the video stirred up some fine memories! Will have to keep "Eleanor" in mind if we ever get back!

[@Mikey-Likes-It_101]

Randy, Wow, did not know about this park, so wonderful for Hailey and you to give us the tour. amazing trek AT YOUR OWN RISK to the light station. Looks like a wonderful sea village. Isn’t Canada WONDERFUL? Glad the let AMERICA’S PARKS in to visit. THANK YOU FOR TAKING US TO THE LIGHTHOUSE, . . . Mike

[@AmericasParks]

I was just happy we go across the border that day!

[@NickandRachel]

Pretty awesome place there! I loved all the History. Man President Roosevelt really got around later on when he got polio he moved down to the "little white house" in Warm Springs Georgia. It's not too far from where I live, I've been meaning to go there and do a video for awhile now.

[@AmericasParks]

Neat part of the man's life I never was aware of. Yeah, a video of that place would be cool. Same as you - become more fascinated with history as I get older. Have a great week!

[@sharonharris8152]

I absolutely LOVE this video !!! Back in 2014 my oldest son and I took a trip to Maine, made it all the way up to Acadia National Park and then Lubec, Maine to see the West Quoddy Lighthouse. I wanted so badly to cross the border into Canada to visit Roosevelt Campobello Int. Park but I didn’t have a passport and was too worried if they let me cross over, I wouldn’t be able to get back into the US ! So , this video was really special to me and I’m in the process of finally getting my passport so that I can go to Campobello, too ! Thanks for sharing your fun adventure ! Love the lighthouse, too !

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks so much, Sharon! Such a nice comment to read. Glad to encourage you and hope you can visit this great site soon!

[@jymnmeier3527]

So beautiful. Sounded like they had some really awesome activities there as well. The "Tea with Eleanore sounds pretty amazing. The staff seemed super into their job which enhances any experience. Great video as always and can't wait for your next adventure. Much love as always!!!!

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks for the great comment - as always! All the best to you and your family this weekend!

[@thefactualconservative9922]

America’s Park’s: “what are you doing in my tent?” Me: “You said there was room for me on your next adventure” America’s Park’s: “well you got me there”

[@AmericasParks]

haha! As long as you are treating all of us to breakfast!

[@kimmontenegro2258]

I remember the pleasant smell of that place. And if I recall correctly, the hydrangeas too! We then went to watch the birds drop the crustaceans from various heights in order to crack the shells. Thank you for sharing and letting me reminisce of years gone by with my son.

[@AmericasParks]

That was really nice to read, Kim! Happy to rekindle some fond memories from this special location!

[@marycahill546]

Nicely done. Special place. Thanks for posing.

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks so much, Mary!

[@samcaruthers8511]

That was so much fun Y-D-N-A-R #camposmoochies

[@AmericasParks]

Thank for joining us, Sam!

[@samcaruthers8511]

Americas Parks Anytime

[@juliesmith444]

What a beautiful, hidden away place. Special memories

[@AmericasParks]

Sure was! Nice to have a day we'll always remember!

[@robplaysstuff6029]

Hey Randy. Now I can see why you love making videos. I’m still the only person to touch that piano btw

[@AmericasParks]

haha! That was a pretty special place! It's a good rule to keep all musical instruments far from me. lol! Thanks for hanging with us!

[@oregon3158]

I’m glad that little sweet talkin worked. Beautiful scenery.

[@AmericasParks]

Not always, but think we scored this time! :) Thanks for the comment, Susan!

[@SenjaAldee]

Oh greatt.. they are kind to let you in

[@AmericasParks]

That makes it twice this summer - Niagara too! lol! The Canadians were wonderful!

[@BluemoonTraveler]

Very very nice video! Thanks for sharing my dear friend. Your videos are always fresh and amazing. Big Like 86. I wish have a happy week.👍🏻👍🏻

[@AmericasParks]

Thank you very much! I hope you have a fantastic week as well, my friend!

[@thewrightlife]

Great video, I like your energy. Headed to Campobello this week!

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks and have a nice time out there! Minimal crowds and great beauty!

[@TravelwithYvonne]

Such a beautiful Trip and amazing places 💖️

[@AmericasParks]

Yeah it was a nice day's activity. One we'll always remember. Have a super weekend!

[@MrHuntingsAdventures]

👌😆...International Baby 🇨🇦

[@AmericasParks]

lol! Thank you, sir!

[@RobertLWard]

I've never heard of this one Randy. That whole area looks incredible. Great video as always my friend. I bet your kids end up with a lifelong love of these places as well.

[@AmericasParks]

Sure hope so! Yeah, it is not one of the 3 Maine NP's - technically it's an international park, but we were right there, so thought we'd spend a day.

[@pa_hyker7715]

No crowds! I love it!!

[@AmericasParks]

lol! Yeah, surely an advantage of these smaller, more remote and less popular National Parks! Have a super weekend!

[@seacoast4950]

That’s a beautiful park. Very nice cottage! I’ve never heard of that park, so it was nice to see it.

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks for the kind words! Not a National Park most are familiar with, but a pretty cool stop up in NE Maine!

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

Loved when you asked Hailey how much fun she was having and she really didn’t give you a proper answer 😂 That is a crazy tidal fluctuation!

[@AmericasParks]

Laughing because it was a fun day all around! Have a great week, Heather and Jim!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Surprised that you need a passport to get into Canada for the day but good to see you made it without one. Pretty informative lady on the tour and a nice place to have a look around. After 45 years of listening to heavy metal my ears are not the best, so no way would I be standing next to them giant foghorns in case they went off! Pizza looked good to me too, even though it was Canadian! Cheers Alan

[@AmericasParks]

Hey Alan, hope you are doing well! Thanks for the kind words and witty observations! :)

[@dfitz8384]

the pizza come from Maine Alan, I live next door :)

[@costiniucmircea]

Beautiful video !

[@AmericasParks]

Thank you very much! Have a great week!

[@vcepodryad]

Great video turned out !!! Like !!!

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks so much, my friend!

[@jimgreen5788]

Do you know that Campobello is 1 of 4 parks shared with Canada? Yesiree, boys and girls, there are, besides here, Waterton Lakes across from Glacier, Kluane (clue-AH-knee) in Yukon, across from Alaska's Wrangell-St. Elias, and the International Peace Garden--part in ND and part in Manitoba--not all national parks, but all split across our border--the longest unfortified one in the world, at 5525 miles/8891km.

[@AmericasParks]

Cool information - only knew of 2 of them. Thanks!

[@christinestange4813]

..... never knew there was an International Park .... very cool 😎 The Roosevelt site was interesting ... neat that it is a joint venture between Canada and the States 👍 We have Grover Cleveland's summer home, River Lea, here on Grand Island .... more modest of a dwelling.... located on the shores of the beautiful Niagara River. 🇺🇸 Safe travels!

[@AmericasParks]

Neat, Christine, never heard of that one! Yeah, there are 3 NP sites in Maine, but since we were in the area, couldn't resist the visit. Thanks for the comment and have a great weekend!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Crazy all the border jumping you had to do in this video lol. Extremely beautiful area and I'm glad you were able to get in the country without passports. FDR had a great vacation home!! That lighthouse was super cool also but the high tide thing and getting stuck there for 8 hour is a little nerve wracking. Thanks for showing us another adventure my friend!

[@AmericasParks]

Appreciate that, Eric! Looking forward to getting the first New Mexico video up this week - that was one of my biggest trips last summer. Hope you are enjoying your weekend!

[@SergeCousineau]

Hello ! Great video again , didn’t know about this Roosevelt summer house . Knew about the the high tides ...we went many years ago in the bay of Fundy at Hopewell Rocks Provincial Park in New Brunswick They call it Flowers Pot because at low tide the rocks whit the trees and bushes on top looks like it . You seem to have fun whit your girl that’s gold ! ATB and have a nice weekend Just saying...I have a video out and it’s about approaching Hanksville Utah working on the next one which will be "Goblin Valley State Park " Hélène et Serge💑 👍😉🏔🎥

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks my friend! Really a unique place with those radical tidal changes! Will stop b y - look forward to seeing your work!

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Super video and content guys, what a great place to visit, so much history! How you got into Canada without a passport was unbelievable, must try some of your charm the next time we visit Europe 🤣🤣🤣

[@AmericasParks]

haha! I have fill confidence in you! I'm sure your polite and witty English disposition will go a long way! :)

[@SenjaAldee]

Love the adventure and exploring,, weather looks good too, still summer no?

[@AmericasParks]

That, Senja! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

[@waterfallmadman]

I was going to say you did not learn your lesson from Niagara Falls . But you got back into the country yet again! Lol. Great video.

[@AmericasParks]

lol! Actually, the videos were produced in reverse order, so I didn't learn from this experience. :) The Canadians are going to soon get tired of my excuses!

[@philipeckerberg]

In parts of Wyoming the speed limit is 80 miles per hour.

[@AmericasParks]

Wow! Don't think I've ever seen that. Thanks, Phil, hope you are doing well!

[@DallasCarr-1]

Nice video. I took some drone footage of the lighthouse.

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks! That footage must look really cool, Dallas!

[@DallasCarr-1]

@@AmericasParks it's available on my channel if you would like to view it. Cheers!

[@DestinationEarth]

You're lucky we're nice up here letting a couple of hoodlems like you guys in here! Glad you had a great time and didn't get stranded on the islands. The tides here are quite insane. Love the lobster transition, lol.

[@AmericasParks]

Hey Josh, that now makes 2 trips into Canada this - and might I add - a lot of mercy from the border officials! Such a beautiful country and good people!

[@ivi122]

I’ve been to Lubec! It is gorgeous. Have you hiked in Quoddy Head? Amazing

[@AmericasParks]

That whole area was incredible! Neat to hear you've been out there. Never heard of Quoddy Head. Just looked it up on Google. Beautiful lighthouse! ATB in 2020!

[@SenjaAldee]

Ah so unique its operated by canada and america, maybe thats why they let you in without passport

[@AmericasParks]

Think that was the case - plus it was only a mile in and the site was on an island!

[@YoussefHallouly]

Hey do you still have the G9 ? i just sold my G85 today i'm looking to get one, maybe i could buy it from you, im just starting as a filmmaker ;) ? let me know

[@AmericasParks]

Yes and thanks for asking, but it's my primary camera now. I've had it almost a year and have been pleased with it. All the best to you with your filmmaking!

[@YoussefHallouly]

Americas Parks thanks ! Have a good day friend

[@rickyboy1947]

it's Canada.....it's not the US......Roosevelt picked this island for his summer home and he loved to people that live in New Brunswick

[@AmericasParks]

Right on... and we were amazed to get in without any passports.
