If you’re anywhere near this area I highly recommend you meet the Deep North folks. They are so wonderful and helpful. I’ve met a lot of wonderful people in my travels but these guys go above and beyond what should be expected from Boondockers welcome Hosts. B. helped me with a couple of problems I had with my van with ingenius ideas that worked! I was set off with veggies from the garden among other considerate things. These guys are the epitome of what a host is. Thanks so much guys. We will stay in touch as we have already.

The place is in beautiful quiet neighborhood. The hosts had amazing communication and the first thing they asked when I arrived was if I needed anything at all. Then I was asked if there was anything I needed help with and when I explained I still needed to attach my solar, B spent the evening helping me. I cannot be more grateful for the knowledge and assistance I was provided. 10/10!

Host had great communication. Spot was in their driveway in a quiet, little neighborhood. Be sure to ask him about his hiking trail! Got a chance to go up to Angle Inlet and see northernmost point. Great stay. Highly recommend. Very friendly and welcoming hosts made sure I had everything I could need.

This is a great boondocker host couple. B has a wealth of experience with campers, especially the electronics, and he took some hours to help me update my electrical system and check my brakes. I am very grateful for his time and expertise. The main attraction in Roseau is the Polaris plant. There was no tour in the Covid time but the Experience Center was open and is a great place to see the history of the snowmobile

Lively and interesting couple with vast boondocking experience. Scored some fresh tomatoes out of their garden. Hard to find nowadays. Much appreciated.
