Camper Sites were level and open, easy to get the camper in and landed. 30 Amp Power was excellent, water is provided but based on outside cold temps and low pressure, I would fill your on board freshwater tank for better results. Free firewood but bring dry kindling to start your fires with. Great Dump Station to empty your camper prior to departing. Outstanding experience if you are looking to hunt in the North Maine Woods, and you want the finer amenities with your camper rather than boondocking, please give them a look, it is worth it.

We had an amazing stay here. We were met by the owner as we pulled up and he gave us a tour and let us set up wherever it suited us. He was generous with his time and helped us as we were motorcycle camping and needed to repair a bent rim. He also owns the general store next store which is very well stocked.

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.

This spot was perfect. Private, on the river, peaceful, beautiful. Very dog and people friendly. We have a campervan and were able to fit right in. Even though we were on the river there were few mosquitoes. We were well directed to town to a great brewery with wood fired pizza. Yum! Neat area, but we were just passing through. Will stop by again if we’re in the area.

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!
