We had a great time camping at Primal Silence! A beautifully secluded and natural campsite. Our 6-man tent was a little big for the tent pad, but we made it work. Perfect spot for enjoying the beauty of this part of Maine!

Thanks to Paul for a great stay. The campsite was easy to find even though we arrived late. We enjoyed being out in the quiet, serene Maine woods and it was a great jumping off point for our trip into Canada.

As advertised. Remote, secluded, silent. Paul was helpful and responsive.

Very private, wooded site
Very private, wooded site. Paul was very responsive with directions and we found it easily. Path was well marked and tent site level and clear. Photo is a bit deceiving, since site is deep in the woods. Does require a walk along a path to the site.

Quiet Campsite in the woods
Campsite in the woods It was a fine campsite I could’ve used a little better directions on the location but once I spoke to Paul and got the specifics there was no problem

Quiet; small; no amenities.
It was very quiet - as advertised and so a great place to sleep. However, not so great if you want to spend time at the site. There was no water - Paul said the spring was dry and told us of another spring. Unfortunately, that was 7 miles away inconvenient. The site was small and our large tent just fit. There was no convenient place to cook or set up a tarp to just relax at the site. Since our plan was to hike and explore the area, we took off in the morning and found one of many public areas to have breakfast, and returned after dinner when ready to sleep again so it worked out OK. The bucket toilet system would have been OK - but the bucket had not been emptied. Paul was very apologetic and offered a partial refund. Parking area very small - even for our compact car. We had to park carefully to open doors without hitting / standing in brush. Parts of the trail to the site were overgrown. With tick warning signs at most trail heads, keeping the brush cleared at the parking area and along the trail would improve the experience considerably.
