We purchased this land a few years ago when our neighbors decided to sell. It abuts our property They used it as a place for their family to gather and camp on during Maine wonderful summer season. It is a beautiful, quiet spot with a great view and a small pond. Hipcamp lets us share this spot and helps pay our property taxes.We are located in the western mountains of Maine in a summer community on Porter Lake. There is a beautiful view of New Vineyard mountain from our 3 acre field. We have 2 trailer sites with power and water (non potable) and an out house. The field has several fire pits and soft grassy spaces for pitching tents. The camping area is fairly private from our neighbors along the road. The site has a small private pond surrounded by trees you can sit and relax near. You can (walk/bike/drive) the 1/4 mile down the dirt road to the public beach. The beach has a public dock, boat ramp, swim float, picnic tables and grills. Paddle out to the island and try the rope swing with one of our kayaks or canoes. Be sure to check out the bald eagles that live in the white pine tree just a little farther down the island. You will hear the loons during your stay and possibly see a mother with her babies on her back. There are also ducks and ducklings and geese with gosling paddling about the lake. The state stocks the lake with trout, splake, and salmon if you like to fish. There is plenty to do right here!

Experience ultimate relaxation in a quiet, peaceful wooded setting on a 22-acre farmstead in the beautiful foothills of western Maine. There are two private glampsites, one off-grid cabin located 500-feet from our farmstead and the other a charming cottage with electricity, located in the heart of the property. We offer farmstead tours to visit our lush gardens and meet our herd of five super friendly Nigerian Dwarf goats, three pigs and flock of laying hens. (Fresh eggs and veggies from the garden are offered when available.) A pristine lake with excellent swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding is less than two miles away. Reading and napping in the hammock is highly recommended. The night skies are dark, so plan for dreamy stargazing in the zero gravity chairs. Hike into the hills on well-maintained logging roads. Both cabins are made from pine trees that once stood on-site and have comfy queen-sized beds with luxurious bedding. Enjoy cooking over the campfire or in the fully equipped screened-in outdoor kitchens with two-burner gas stoves and grills. The glampsites include private outhouses and outdoor battery-powered showers. We provide amazing, mineral-rich drinking water from our ever-flowing spring and as much firewood as you need for campfires in the stone fire pits.

Good Cellular signal. Good access road for your RV. The amazing views include Owl's Head lighthouse and Matinicus island in the very far distance, sunrise over Ragged Mountain and the Camden hills. To the north the Dixmont, and Bangor areas are visible. Watch the sunset to the west over Sennebec pond and Appleton ridge. To the southwest Mt. Washington may be just visible on a clear day. 75 acres of open fields and woodlands to explore at your leisure. Among the hidden gems you might find are the original homestead foundation, a vernal brook, a distant field that is totally secluded and an oak tree with a heart! Deer, wild Turkeys, Hawks, Owls and Bald Eagles are frequent visitors. You may even stumble upon wild raspberries and blackberries, if they're in season. The small town of Union also hosts the Maine Wild Blueberry Festival. The Lobster Festival is nearby in Rockland every August. No other campers are visible from your site - so you get breathtaking beauty all for yourself - and those with you! Note: Part of the land is a working Wild Blueberry farm and as such, on rare occasions, the quiet is interrupted to care for the crop. Should that take place we will credit you with a free day's stay. Note: No Trespassing signs are posted for the farm operation - these Do Not apply to Hipcampers! Please drive past them through the open gate to the site. Pack in and pack out! The 2 dumpsters along the main road are PRIVATE and are camera monitored.

4. Private Farmstead Cabin Glamping

35mi from Waterville · 2 sites · Lodging
Experience ultimate relaxation in a quiet, peaceful wooded setting on a 22-acre farmstead in the beautiful foothills of western Maine. There are two private glampsites, one off-grid cabin located 500-feet from our farmstead and the other a charming cottage with electricity, located in the heart of the property. We offer farmstead tours to visit our lush gardens and meet our herd of five super friendly Nigerian Dwarf goats, three pigs and flock of laying hens. (Fresh eggs and veggies from the garden are offered when available.) A pristine lake with excellent swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding is less than two miles away. Reading and napping in the hammock is highly recommended. The night skies are dark, so plan for dreamy stargazing in the zero gravity chairs. Hike into the hills on well-maintained logging roads. Both cabins are made from pine trees that once stood on-site and have comfy queen-sized beds with luxurious bedding. Enjoy cooking over the campfire or in the fully equipped screened-in outdoor kitchens with two-burner gas stoves and grills. The glampsites include private outhouses and outdoor battery-powered showers. We provide amazing, mineral-rich drinking water from our ever-flowing spring and as much firewood as you need for campfires in the stone fire pits.

This truly is a beautiful location, but please be sure to pack accordingly for your stay.

Beautiful private place with a 360 view of the mountains! Completely impressed by the stone picnic table! The turn is a bit hidden so drive very slowly — we reached the top of the mountain and had to turn around because we went too far. I think the sign is a little hidden within the bushes.

The Brid's Nest was exactly as described, and. a fun cabin to stay in. It is a little bit of a walk up to the cabin, but there is a wagon to help load up your suitcases. Sunrise through the trees the next morning was absolutely beautiful along with my drive to my next destination. If you don't mind glamping without the extra fluff, I recommend staying here!
