Great for anyone - tent or RV. We stayed as family of 4 (girl 8, boy 5) in a small RV. This was a touring trip of Maine and after 8 camps, this was our favorite one and the one we stayed at the longest (4 nights).

This was a treasure to find! The "hosts" at check in are welcoming and treated everyone with kindness.The sites are all a little different. Some shaded, some full sun, some wooded and some with a view (which you pay for). We tent camp and had a great view of the water. The bathrooms were some of the cleanest I have... More

We've been vacationing here for over 15 years with the kids (now adults). The campground is close to Bar Harbour and on the free Island Hopper bus route. No reservations means you can nearly always find a site her except for the occasional day mid August. You pick your own site which is great. There are wooded sites and field... More

The staff at the gate is really nice. We camped in the wooded sites and they are big and not one on top of each other. The bath houses are very clean and big so you don't have to wait in line for the shower. The outdoor pool is really nice with a really nice view from it. We will... More

Took a campsite in the open, to be next to the heated pool, which was about 78 degrees. Relaxing. Bath houses are numerous, and fairly clean. You do not have to wait in lines for showers. Non-shaded sites are perfect to warm up in the sun and get our gear dry after a good kayak on a rainy morning. I... More

Came expecting to stay only for a night and stayed for three!! Dick and Vicky who are in the office in the evenings are the best - make you feel right at home and answer any questions! The great thing about this place is that they let you choose your own site! We opted for a wooded site the first... More
