Wilson's Four Season Resort: 80-Acre Riverfront Adventure Resort For Sale on the Southwest Miramichi
13 bedrooms, a full restaurant and bar, sixteen private fishing pools, and the NB Trail system running straight through the property.
Overview
Wilson's Four Season Resort is a year-round outdoor adventure resort on the Southwest Miramichi River at McNamee, New Brunswick. It hosts families, outdoor enthusiasts, corporate retreats, meetings, and weddings on a property whose sporting camp roots date back to 1855.
The main lodge includes a great room, commercial-grade kitchen, full restaurant and bar, and guest rooms. Riverside cottages bring the total to 13 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms. Construction dates from 2004 to 2015, and approximately $1.5 million has been invested in infrastructure since 2010. Hot tubs and fire pits round out the guest experience.
The land is the other half of the story. The sale includes multiple PIDs totalling approximately 80 acres, sixteen private fishing pools, and 26,000 feet of riparian fishing rights on the waterfront known as Big Murphy. That amount of private riparian water is unlikely to ever be replicated.
The NB Trail system runs through the property and connects to provincial snowmobile and ATV trails. Guests ride out from the front door in winter and summer alike.

Why It Stands Out
01
Revenue in Every Season
Snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and a winter sliding hill carry the cold months. Canoeing, kayaking, tubing, ATVing, and fly fishing carry the warm ones. The business does not depend on a single activity or a single season.
02
Private Water That Can't Be Recreated
Sixteen private fishing pools and 26,000 feet of riparian fishing rights across 80 acres. These rights hold their significance whether fishing is a primary revenue line or one activity among many.
03
Infrastructure Already Funded
Four sewer systems with commercial-grade concrete tanks, a commercial backup generator, geo-thermal heating, and an owned water filtration system. A buyer inherits this capital rather than having to fund it.
04
Built to Host Groups
A great room, full restaurant and bar, and commercial-grade kitchen give the resort the capacity for weddings, meetings, and corporate retreats alongside leisure guests.
Four-Season Activities
Wilson's is marketed today as a four-season outdoor adventure resort. Fly fishing remains part of the program, alongside a trail, snow, and river activity mix that keeps guests arriving throughout the year.
On the Snow
- Snowmobiling via the NB Trail system
- Snowshoeing
- Winter sliding hill
On the Trails
- ATVing with provincial trail connections
- Walking trails
- NB Trail system through the property
On the River

- Tubing
- Fly fishing on 16 private fishing pools
Main Lodge
Built in 2004 and expanded in 2010, the single-storey board-and-batten main lodge exceeds 7,000 sq ft with a finished walk-out basement. It is the operational heart of the resort, combining guest rooms with the dining, bar, and gathering space that event and group business requires.

The Southwest Miramichi & Riparian Rights
The Miramichi River system has drawn visitors from Europe, the United States, and across Canada for generations. Wilson's waterfront, known as Big Murphy, includes sixteen private fishing pools and 26,000 feet of riparian fishing rights.
The lodge and cottages sit on about 6 acres. The remaining acreage and riparian frontage are held across additional parcels, bringing the total to approximately 80 acres. Private riparian holdings of this size are what separate Wilson's from resorts that rely on public water access.
