Although Theodore Roosevelt park is often referred to as Roosevelt national park or Roosevelt state park, these titles are incorrect as the park is jointly held by the United States and the Canadian government in partnership. The Roosevelt Campobello International Park is an inspiring example of cooperation between nations to preserve natural resources. None of this background information matters much to the visitor, whoever, who will care more about the gorgeous landscape and the rich history of the area.

There is only one American president who can claim to have his own International park, Roosevelt. Located on Campobello Island in New Brunswick, Roosevelt Campobello International Park stands as a monument, not only to Theodore Roosevelt, but to the solidarity between the United States and Canada. These two countries hold joint ownership of the park and divide equally the responsibilities and financial cost of running it.
