Having camped since the 90s, I can confidently say Leketa’s campground in the Maine woods is the best I’ve ever experienced. My family and I had an amazing time, and so much of that is thanks to Leketa herself. She’s not just the owner; she’s a hard worker with an outstanding vibe and energy, who has poured her heart into creating this incredible place. You can truly feel her dedication and the unique energy she brings, making you feel deeply connected to the Maine woods.
The campground offers private sites near Douglas Pond with endless water access, and I’ve never caught so many fish in my life! This peaceful, wildlife-filled sanctuary is masterfully managed by Leketa, an truly awesome woman. We felt incredibly safe and connected with nature, and I’ll be returning as much as I can.

3 nights at Private Waterfront Cabin/Campsites
The camping experience went above and beyond with a host like LEKETA. Provided a wonderful cabin stocked with everything we needed to cook and the outpost had everything we needed for campfires. My wife and I can't wait to go again!

What a lovely campsite! If you grew up camping in a tent but are a little older and want the same experience with a comfy bed this spot is for you! Jeff and Cathy are lovely hosts. They have thought of everything. They check in with you through the app in the morning to see if you need anything that day. They have toiletries in case you forget to pack something, provide you with ample fire wood, propane stove and all cooking utensils needed. The space itself is quite large and spaced far enough away from the next site which is hidden behind some trees. We liked that the space was all grass which our pup loved too! Be aware that you are in the woods and there are bugs including ticks so be vigilant on checks. Owls next is a fantastic quiet well maintained space. 10/10 would visit again.

Weekend Trip to Porcupine Creek Rustic Camping
My son and I stayed in the Owls tent. Everything was great. We had everything we needed and our host checked on us to make sure we had what we needed. It was quite and peaceful. We will be back again.

We loved camping at Jeff and Cathy’s Woodchuck acres. It’s really clear they care about the people staying there. We had a great time. I’d definitely stay again and would love to try the owl’s nest or tree house! Thank you!

Jeff and Kathy were fantastic hosts and I would highly recommend staying in their lovely campsite. I stayed in the owls nest tent which was very clean and comfortable and had a nice kitchen area outside. I felt very welcome and safe as Jeff and Kathy often checked to see if I needed anything. Very nice hosts and a beautiful campsite. Would love to stay there again.

I had a great stay in Castine thanks to this Hipcamp! The hosts were friendly and easy to reach through the app. I stayed at site one which was great for a tent and a little more private than site 2 as it was surrounded by trees on three sides. Very simple setup. The two sites are basically attached to each other though so I was lucky to be the only one there during my stay. The campsite was clean and freshly mowed when I arrived. It was a little buggy when it wasn’t windy when I was there in June and the second day was windy so be sure to keep everything solidly in place. I brought a camp toilet but ended up preferring to just use the public restrooms in Castine. They’re open 24/7 with parking right outside the building and only 5-10 minutes down the road. I also often stopped at public restrooms at libraries, stores, or grocery stores while out and about.
Nearby I’d recommend coffee at bucklyn coffee in blue hill and you can fuel up and gas ice at their Hanford grocery stores while. The blue hill library is also fantastic and I picked up some used books about Maine there. The Stone fox ice cream truck down by the harbor was excellent and better servings than the dairy port imo.
I’d also highly recommend Castine kayak adventures (especially the bioluminescent paddle), Wadsworth cove beach and the lupine meadow nearby called “hatch cove preserve” at the turnoff for the beach which was in full bloom during my stay in June.

This campground is such a special place. The sites are large and private from each other, and the bathrooms were always clean and well-stocked. Cathy and Jeff were great hosts and always available to answer a question.
Spend time here to fall asleep to frog song and wake up to bird song.

Lovely hosts. Welcomed us warmly. Noreaster rolled in the last night of our stay. Jane stayed in touch with us regularly. Site 1 is terrific, no one on site 2 during our stay. The site is all grass with picnic table and fire pit. Leveling our C class was easy. We would highly recommend.

We were looking for a quiet spot to spend a few days. This site 100% delivered!!! Beautiful view, not a soul in site, quiet, and clean!! The owners were wonderful, their beautiful (and energetic) English Setter came to visit while she was making her daily rounds, there was a stack of firewood ready to go, a picnic table, and a firepit. There are no hook-ups of any kind...which was fine by us...but be prepared. Perfect spot for solar panels as there is a clear, south facing, shot from east to west. Plenty of maneuvering room, too. I was easily able to come in, with our 27' travel trailer and full size truck, and turn around.

Great private spot tucked away on the owners property. Easy back in spot with fruit trees and pines all around. Cleanly mowed grass and close to Castine!
