Campbellford is a beautiful riverside community nestled along the banks of the Trent Severn Waterway in the rolling hills of Northumberland. Almost centrally located between Ottawa and Toronto via Highway #30 – north of the 401 at the Brighton exit or south of Highway 7 at the Havelock exit. Campbellford is approximately a one day journey by boat from Quinte Country northwest & from the Kawarthas southeast.
