This campsite offers a serene and private experience with stunning views, especially during sunset and at night with clear skies filled with stars. Many reviews highlight the cozy and clean cabin as a perfect retreat during bad weather, with thoughtful touches like solar lights and a clean outhouse. Guests appreciate the spaciousness for kids and pets to roam, and the proximity to attractions like Acadia and Jones Pond. While overwhelmingly positive, a few reviews note minor discomforts like ticks and road noise, which some found bothersome.

Quiet and private site Down East
24 ft truck camper
The site is exactly as described. Easy to find in daylight, and easy to find and level my truck/camper. Yes you actually can see the Atlantic just over the treeline, The cabin is cozy and plenty of space in a field-like setting. Was pleasantly surprised to find a decent sit-down restaurant (Ironbound) only about 10 minutes away. We scoped out the site during daylight, and came back after dinner and set-up in the dark and enjoyed a quiet and peaceful overnight.

The spot was lovely! We enjoyed the privacy yet the proximity to so much to do. Having the little cabin was also much appreciated as we had a rainy night and it gave us a spot to stay dry.

Spent 2 nights here. It was magical. Such a beautiful, quiet place. The sunset was beautiful and there were more stars than Ive ever seen. The cabin was so cozy with everything you need for a glamping experience. I would definitely recommend this place. My dog loved being able to run free and the privacy was great. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Private, quiet, and beautiful!
Tent · With kids
Wow, this site is such a gem! We came here after a week of camping at a crowded campground, and this was such a breath of fresh air- very private and quiet, plus lots of space for kids to run around. The shelter is bigger than expected and also stayed quite cool in the summer heat. My family slept in the shelter and we set up a tent for storing our stuff. We appreciated the little touches like the string of lights and the clothesline. The star gazing was amazing. Fantastic location and was nice to come back to our quiet site after a busy day at Acadia. Jones Pond is a quick drive away and a great spot for fishing, kayaking, and swimming.

Such a cute and perfect little campsite. The building is so cute and perfect you could easily fit an air mattress inside or just use it as a bug free spot to hang or hold your gear. The outhouse was clean and super convenient to have. The hand pump well is a real life saver that made cleaning up and getting water super easy. I would for sure stay again and actually booked another stay right away!

Great for car camping and dogs
16 ft car · With pets
This place is so serene. A great place for car camping, especially with dogs. I enjoyed a bug-free evening in the adorable little screened cabin and retreated to the car at bedtime. There is a little futon in the cabin suitable for one. It wouldn’t take much extra packing to make it a real glamping experience. Gorgeous views, abundant wildlife, great dog walking, and more. Grateful for my brief time here!

Timber Tent was everything that we wanted as both a base camp and a hangout/shelter. Would 100% stay there again. There’s so much to do in the local area, so we probably will.

Magical Campsite!
Tent
This is our third time in Maine and first time in this campsite and what a gem! I cannot express how much I love the views in the horizon, the amount of stars you can see at night because is so opened and dark! The ground is leveled which makes it amazing for easy set up. The 12x12 cabin is super cozy with multiple windows for fresh air. The well is such an added comfort, it looks a little brown from the underground minerals but it was still great. We used it for washing dishes and even took showers every night in the open air! The water was extremely cold but incredibly refreshing! We were there for 4th of July and got to see fireworks in the distance from our campsite being that is so high up.
The location was also the best for us because it was central to all of our favorite areas such as Schoodic Point yet was still very private.
Firewood is sold everywhere but there is a house with wood fire only 2 minutes away.
The firepit is great, has a grill to cook things on and they even provide the cast iron! We brought our own cast iron, and made a delicious pizza over the fire!!
The outhouse is convinient and good to have.
In summary, out of all the other places we stayed, this is by far my favorite campsite!
A little memorable moment… we saw the biggest shooting star I’ve ever seen in my life! I love this place and I cannot wait to be back.
Thank you for making the place so perfect!

The perfect sunset spot
Tent
We had the best time at this site. The views were absolutely incredible. We had better sunset views from the campsite than we even would in Acadia. Having the water, electric plug, and bathroom on site was so helpful, too. We ended up tent camping, but the little house was such an added perk, too for storage, spending time together, etc. I can’t recommend this spot enough!!

UNBELIEVABLE!!!! AWESOME!!!
Tent
All I can say is wow!! I booked the camp for 4 days but was really only thinking I would stay for 2-3 and thought...what the heck, if I like it I could stay the 4 days. By day 2, I never wanted to leave. The place was incredible. The stars at night were so amazing that I didn't watch any TV or get on my phone the entire time. I can't wait to go again next year!!
The camp was perfect!!! Just enough roughing it to feel like I was camping but also just enough glamp to not make me feel like I was full on camping. Absolutely perfect!!

Beautiful spot! Lovely breeze coming up from the ocean. Very comfortable and the cabin was full of thoughtful touches. We found some wild strawberries growing and it looks like there will be raspberries or blackberries and blueberries later in the summer. Highly recommend!

Beautiful location with some partial sunset views, perfect cabin for our family of 5 to stay warm and dry. Outhouse was clean and practical. Owners had helpful things in the cabin like drinking water a nice flashlight, and a styrofoam cooler. Loved that it was close to winter harbor and schoodic peninsula.

Great stargazing
Tent
The space was extremely private, with a nice hilltop view. A fantastic location for star-gazing. The cabin was great: spacious and breezy windows, clean and well-maintained, and well-sealed! No bugs in the cabin at all. Outhouse was similarly clean. No water around, so keep that in mind for fires (nearby scrub is very dry). We were there during a heatwave and the black flies were pretty bad; not sure about bugs in normal weather, but bug spray highly recommended.
