If you like small-town living, but want access to the amenities of a major city, then Boiestown's lifestyle and services are for you. The community of Boiestown is the geographic centre of New Brunswick, only an hour's drive from the provincial capital of Fredericton and excellent shopping plus a myriad cultural and other activities.

Recreation
The community of 500 provides a safe, welcoming neighbourhood for children and adults. A host of outdoor activities are available in the area - from skating and hockey in winter, to beach volleyball and basketball in summer.

And the NB Trail provides an opportunity to experience first hand the breathtaking vistas of the Boiestown area.

The 65-acre Woodmen's Museum offers a look back at Boiestown's origins, with a rebuilt trapper's cabin, a replica of a lumber camp kitchen, and much more.
