Meet the Owners
​Jesse and Stephanie Heady are originally from Vero Beach, Florida. They are parents to Riley (26) and Maguire (21) who will be joining them on this new adventure. In 2002, they took a giant leap and moved to Costa Rica to raise their boys while embracing the slower pace of life and instilled solid family values.
Stephanie is a recently retired K-8 Principal and spent 20 years in education. In June 2020, they began their latest adventure, traveling America, one campground at a time. Jesse is a traveling CVICU nurse which has allowed them to embrace the camper life.
The past 18 months has taught them so much regarding the dos and don'ts of the campground industry, but more important has created huge expectations for New River Campground and Canoe. Their excitement is overflowing as they take the reigns and are looking forward to helping you have an amazing experience at the river!​
