Rustic tent site with fire pit, firewood, picnic table, and outhouse. It is a very secluded and quiet site surrounded by birches, spruce, a young maple stand, and some cute fledgling pines. There's open space to the south with sight-lines toward Frenchmans and Flanders Bay. To the north, east, and west, there's about 70 acres of tree-growth with some old logging trails to casually bushwhack if you feel it. There's a glacial erractic (big big boulder) not terribly far from the site. Please note that it is possible to get lost if you go deep (though unlikely). There is proper hiking throughout the area, not least of which is Acadia National Park and Lamoine State Park. But there are hikes even closer. Long Ledges is just a couple miles up the road (off Punkinville, right by the high school). And these trails are ambitious, even connect up all the way to Schoodic Mountain, which in addition to being a great hike on its own, is surrounded by Donnell Pond and Tunk Lake. Further trails throughout and amongst the State Preserve are great. Swim, fish (get a license before doing so), boat (plenty of public landings around to put in a kayak), hangout. Biking is probably best on the carriage roads of Acadia, which are island-side on MDI, or over at Schoodic in Winter Harbor (make a loop starting at Frazier Point). Sullivan has a stretch of the sunrise trail, which is an ATV trail, and which is billed as bike friendly but it's not super great for tires narrower than mountain bikes. Go eat seafood at Tracy's, less than a mile up the road. Eat some ice cream at Shanahan's Sweet Retreat. Dunbar's Store has a good beer selection, carries an assortment of food stuffs including some vegan options-variety is the spice of life. Young's Market has breakfast Sammy's, coffee, pizza, cigs, fuel. Check out our 70 acres in tree-growth with some old logging trails. Casually bushwhack on if you feel it. There's a glacial erratic not terribly far from the site. Please note that it is possible to get lost, though unlikely! Please be courteous and respectful of the land and neighbors. Please be mindful that the Maine region is in moderate drought. Pick up after yourselves. Listen for the wildlife, look before speaking. Enjoy! DO NOT BRING YOUR OWN FIREWOOD!

From TX to Maine, this is the best
Tent · With pets ·
Rustic Maine Camping
This is exactly what we hope to find when booking a Hipcamp. From the moment we turned off Route 1 and made the short drive up the private road, the feeling was seclusion, solitude, and privacy. The property is much larger than expected, with roughly 70 acres, only two accommodations, and miles of old logging roads to explore. The campsite was clean, thoughtfully laid out, and included a picnic table, fire ring, firewood, and well water. Directions were excellent, everything was well marked, and we never even needed to contact the host because everything was so straightforward. We traveled with four dogs, and this may have been one of the best dog-friendly campsites we’ve stayed at. The second site is far enough away that everyone has plenty of space, and the logging roads were perfect for exploring. Despite being only a few minutes from Route 1, highway noise was minimal. The birds were incredible, and the limited light pollution made the property feel wonderfully remote. Like anywhere in coastal Maine, bugs and ticks are part of the experience, so bring bug spray and check yourself and your pets. Whether you’re overlanding, tent camping, or motorcycle camping, this site is outstanding. It’s private, peaceful, well maintained, and exactly the kind of place we’ll book again. This is the standard I wish more Hipcamps were held to.

Rustic Maine Camping
It was my first time camping and I was nervous going into it, but once we arrived at the site it felt very safe. Definitely recommend setting up/finding the site during the day because it is a little tricky to find which plot is yours since there are a few sites on the land. The other sites were a little bit in the distant so there were others around but still felt private. Beautiful scenery and the stars at night are a must see! Definitely recommend, especially for first time campers.

Perfect Basecamp for Acadia
Tent · With pets ·
Rustic Maine Camping
This was a perfect location for us to setup Basecamp while exploring the area. It's a far enough from the crowds but close enough that we could drive in and explore Acadia. We also enjoyed exploring the local smaller area. 10/10 would recommend spending time on the closer Schoodic area. The outhouse was clean and had everything we needed. There is currently a fire ban in Maine so we didn't get to enjoy a campfire but there was plenty of firewood provided. If/ when we come back we would love to stay here again.

This was such a great spot for camping! It is about 45 minutes from Acadia which was perfect for us. There was a fire ban so we did not get to have a campfire, but there is a nice fire pit and a picnic table at this site! The outhouse is clean as well! George is a wonderful host, very kind and quick to respond! Thank you for letting us stay!

We had the best 3 nights! It’s a beautiful property & was a great home base for visiting Acadia and the surrounding areas! The outhouse was amazing and very clean. Highly recommend going to Bon Vent Cidery if you stay here and like cider- it’s super close! We will be back if we are in the area!

Had a great time, very quiet, very private - there is a second camp down the road but you can’t see or hear enough other, nice sunset, I arrived at night, took a second to figure out the camp site but if you arrive during the day it all makes sense. There is a wood shed that was super helpful, the outhouse was very clean, leaving camp to go explore and coming back was super easy! Definitely a spot to come back to for camping

We loved camping here! It was so beautiful and easy to find. The outhouse was well stocked and there was plenty of dry firewood that burned SO well. There was only one other campsite pretty far away from us, so we couldn’t hear anyone else or anything like that. Would definitely come again!

It is well kept and George is ready to restock wood should you need it. Privy is very clean and stocked with toilet paper and hand sanitizer. I would prioritize staying here again if I were to come back to the area. The fire pit has an available grate and skillet that attach which make any type of cooking easy!

This site is on a hill and the views are amazing! The site was clean and well stocked with firewood when I arrived. The outhouse was also clean and a perfect distance from the site itself. It's about 45 minutes from Acadia and worth being away from the touristy areas. The drive down to Acadia was easy and scenic. If I ever travel back up, I'll definitely check to see if this site is available again.
