Archer's Edge Luxury Camping
Overview
Archer’s Edge Luxury Campground offers guests a unique experience. Our family has owned the property since settling in the area from the Highlands of Scotland in 1891. It was once a working farm but gave way to woodland as the era of family farms began to fade. Archer’s Edge gives new purpose to this land; we invite you to come and share in the bounty of beauty and hospitality that’s offered here.
Each geodesic dome is completely self-contained, comfortably furnished with a queen-size bed, cozy seating, toilet, shower and kitchenette suitable for two adults. All of our domes provide a full view of the ocean with no obstruction. Hiking, biking and beaches are minutes away. If you are an avid sky watcher, with no excess lighting on the property you are able to view our starlit skies and all the galaxy has to offer.
Archer’s Edge Luxury Campground, located just off Route 19 (the Ceilidh Trail) on the Shore Road in Judique, is right in the middle of it all. Many of the activities and places to see are within an hour’s drive from your dome. Try a local square dance or take in a Ceilidh… check out a community festival in the summer to see the best we have to offer and help support local initiatives… or look into larger festivals like Kitchenfest and the Celtic Colours International Festival.
