- my location is your vacation - 450 feet of cove frontage as part of historic and culturally relevant "Anthony's Beach" and adjacent to Cobscook Bay State Park. Paved boat launch next door, with a dock over there. Undisturbed forest surrounds my land, thick stands of trees along the road and all around. Maine classes this type of property as Remote Primitive camping. Take out your own trash, small bags for gas station trash cans, and bring some water. People marvel at the property and relax. Hand carry launch very close to the shore embankment campsites. This scant-settled area of coastal Maine is a necessary stop on your journey and meet the world's first temporary housing celebrity. #Next to Cobscook Bay State Park!# #Voted Routinely in HipCamp's Top Few Best Campsites in Maine# 4 Sites - 2 hike in tent sites, 2 further from the shore and 3/4 for RVs, 2 big, 2 smaller RVs or vans. Good clearance on driveway - no 4WD needed. sites (tent area 9x14): 1 and 5 best for tents; 3 and 4 for bigger RVs. All sites generally levelled w/fire pits. (firewood included) Only picnic area site lacks picnic table, all others have one. Book a specific site, or ask me which. Open interior land, privacy from road, - clothing-optional inquiries welcomed. Dark nights for star gazing, 20-foot tidal range - strong currents, be careful kayaking and boating, mid-tide and higher it's good swimming here. Carry in here, or launch for free next door. Good cell signal, (Verizon, AT & T) Cell tower 1.2 miles away. Smart phone hot-spot works for me. GPS: ELMER'S COVE CAMPGROUND - Google Maps works best around here.

Explore the beauty of coastal downeast Maine from this quiet solar powered cabin and campsite along the Pennamaquon River. This remote property is surrounded by woods and connects two beauties--the Pennamaqoun Lake and Passamaquody Bay. The rocky Maine Coast, Reversing falls, the Sunrise Trail and the Moosehorn Wildlife Refuge are all nearby. Going up the river about 1/4 of a mile you will find yourself on a quiet lake where you are more likely to see an eagle than a person. About a 1/4 of a mile downriver you will come to a popular swim hole and rope swing. In the spring you might see spawning alewives. You may see ducks, eagles, king fisher, heron, beaver, turtles (or their nests) and loon right from the dock. You won't need your binoculars to catch site of the occasional Mainer floating by in a handmade wooden boat. If you wave, you might get a wave back. It's a soul restoring place appreciated most by those who like human powered activities--like kayaks, canoes and paddle boards (all provided) and a chance to cook on an open fire. There is a picnic table and 4 Adirondack chairs and no wifi. You might also like to swim or float down the river in an inner tube. You can fish on the dock or from your boat. If you have a bike-- head to the nearby Sunrise Trail or country roads. Head there too, if you have shoes and want a measured run (it goes about 87 miles through field, forest, swamp and bog with mileage noted). Eastport is a nearby seaside town with an arts center, shops and dining about 15 minutes away. You can go whale watching and you might just see porpoise, whales, eagles and Old Sow Whirlpool, the largest whirlpool in the Americas. Or stay on shore, and hunt for sea glass and cool rocks. Grab something to eat while you are there, and check out Don Dunbar's amazing nature photography and local gifts. There is also coastal hiking at Shackford Head. You might also head towards Lubec (about 45 minutes) and go on a coastal hike on the Bold Coast trail, or visit the Quoddy Head Lighthouse or cross the bridge into Canada and visist Campobello. Do not miss Monica and her handmade chocolates! You can also head North on Route 1 and go to Canada, just 30 minutes away. Hope to see you with children and dogs!

All amenities at Birch Point Farm are shared with the exception of your camp-site. Lately: We have transformed our outhouse to a composting toilet & added privacy curtains and a new door. We have discontinued the private use of the Birch Point Ocean Lookout site and transformed it into a communal site where Sauna & Outhouse can be found.

We've made new fun signage for everything to accommodate you in case we are unavailable upon your arrival! Disclaimer for campers with dogs ~ be wary of porcupines! We supply firewood. There is a communal Fire Pit & Cob Oven near the main house & Sauna at the Ocean Lookout. We do charge an additional $20 per party to use the Sauna and/or Cob Oven. Cash/Venmo.
