The Point is located in Gouldsboro, in Downeast Maine on the Schoodic Peninsula near the Schoodic portion of Acadia National Park on occupied Wabanaki land. The point is our home, offered to guests as a place for seekers of peace and solace to gain a better relationship and appreciation with nature in a world that has forgotten the importance and connection we all have with the planet that sustains us. A priority here for me is keeping this land pristine and respected. Our mission to save and protect our natural environment and keep it natural and wild can only be accomplished with the active mindfulness of you. We aim to prove that hipcamp can be a magical experience for private landowners and campers alike, to provide a means of temporal community and beneficial alternative to traditional campgrounds; one that does not degrade the environment and break the peace that small towns still contain. Please be mindful of the trash you generate and mindful of the noise you are making— we aim to provide seekers of peace a *quiet* time in nature. Together we are here to be an example to others of what mindful camping can look like in this changing world. Thanks for caring to come, see, explore, learn and being apart of the solution! <3 We hope to hear from you <3

Quiet Acadia Woods Near Ocean

No Crowds, Just Quiet Ocean Woods

Lily is an incredible host! The woods are perfect and beautiful. Quiet and serene, and right on the water. One gets a true sense of the solitude and still (especially if you're coming from the city) a sense of safety. Lily was responsive and even super helpful when we forgot a wine key. She had great tips for hiking, swimming and was fun to chat with. The site is tidy, thoughtful and fairly secluded.

Off-grid Oceanfront A-frame Cabin

A-Frame camping

My friend and I stayed in the A-Frame and had an excellent time! The property is beautiful, the A-Frame sits directly on the water and has a gorgeous view. We rented the kayaks directly from Lily and were able to take the kayaks out whenever we wanted. While we were here we visited Acadia national park and went for a 9 mile bike ride. Lily was an excellent host and even joined us for the Oyster tour nearby which was excellent, would highly recommend!

Quiet Acadia Woods Near Ocean

A quiet level camping spot. A beautiful beach down below. We spent the whole day on the beach and didn’t see anyone else. The portal up was clean. Lily was a very nice host.

The Stargazer Beach Cabin

Wonderful spot

Lovey spot. We had a great stay. 30 second walk to the ocean, with kayaks and canoes you can take out for a small fee, a picnic table and fire pit. As a plus, we had no bugs in September.

Starry-nite Farmhaus Woods on Ocean

Gorgeous private spot!

Loved everything about this place! Private, quiet spot right on the beach! We stayed for three days and went to explore Acadia each day but also loved our time just walking around the beach there. Our last night we did the add on of the lobster dinner and it did not disappoint! Lily is a great cook and lovely host and we cannot wait to come back… hoping to make it an annual camping trip!
