Both the river sites are lovely and private, especially the smaller of the two, which to access one had to pass by the larger. There was some earth-moving noise (excavators and dump trucks) early in the morning, but this seems to have just been bad timing on my part (planned work that I wasn’t aware of until I’d set up for the night). That said, it’s a lovely spot and a friendly and responsive host.

we camped at Junction 19 at the end of July 2025. it was a our second visit because we enjoyed it so much in August 2024. camping sites 1 and 2 are beautiful - the Fish River flows within several yards of the campsites. the views are wonderful. parking is just steps away from both. from the 2 campsites the washroom is a 4 minute walk. the washroom with toilet, sink and shower on both of our visits was very clean. the site is about 2 1/2 miles south of downtown Fort Kent which has a very nice railtrail for ATVs, biking and walking. Neither time was it crowded. very good Hannaford grocery in downtown Ft. Kent, very friendly public library with great wi-fi and good restaurants in Madewaska and St. Agatha. highly recommend Junction 19 camping; we will be back for sure.

Beautiful spot! We stayed over the July 4th weekend 2025. Had the place to ourselves. Camping spot #1 has a creek the feeds into the Fish River, right at the campsite. Amazing natural background noise. Saw tons of wildlife--Lynx appeared immediately upon our arrival! Bald eagles, deer, frogs and other amazing birds we haven't seen before. The Fish River was warm enough to wade and fly fish in shorts and sandals. We had heavy rainfall on the first night and Becky offered to move us up to a spot with tree cover. Really declined but greatly appreciated the gesture. It's a bit of a trek to Fort Kent but it was exactly what we were hoping for once we got there. Highly recommend!
