Campobello Island and Lubec are both small communities, less than 3,000 people combined. Local restaurants get extremely crowded on the Saturday night before the race and we recommend that runners and their families and friends sign up for the lobster bake and pasta supper at Herring Cove Park (see the registration sites for more details).
Lodging also becomes increasingly scarce as we approach race day, so we recommend you book early. Note that the local border stations are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so it really doesn’t matter which side of the border you stay. Lists of local accommodations can be found on: Visit Campobello, New Brunswick, Campobello’s town website, Visit Lubec, Maine, and Lubec’s town website. Further afield (25 miles or so) are the Cobscook Bay State Park, and there is lots more accommodation in Machias, Eastport, and St. Stephen.
Below is a list of the places we know of (by distance from the Finish Line) together with what we know about whether they are already full or not for race weekend. A number of local people willing to accommodate runners have also listed their accommodations on Airbnb, Couchsurfing, Home Away Vacation Rentals, VRBO, and Visit Lubec. Please note that the Bay of Fundy International Marathon takes no responsibility for the nature of any these accommodations in any way and the information here is based only on what people tell us. Please notify us of any errors/changes: marathonrooms@cwwm.ca
Please note that a number of these are seasonal accommodations and it can be difficult to get responses during the winter.
