Submitting a request does not finalize or guarantee a reservation, Which requires approval from the property. Before you make a reservation read the description of each site, there are 5 different names of the choices with different options. . Read all of the info, when you submit your request please include/verify the following info: Is everyone in your group at least 21?/No kids or pets traveling with you.? What sort or camping unit.? Tent/RoofTent/RV/Hammock/Trailer./Van./ Box Truck or creative bus conversion/Cowboy Camper…? Just tell us ! Your reservation request will not be accepted until we have those responses so including that with your reservation request is what we need to know. Several of us live/work/answer messages here. Clarity with your request is necessary. At check out look at the “extras” section to include any pre purchases or rentals. For those flying in or wanting to travel light, you can select “The Works” which includes a tent, bedding , firewood , towels ,chairs, a cooler and numerous camping necessities including coffee and cups. Great for spontaneous adventures and we will have the tent site ready for you to just show up. Easy! Our camping section is located on the property of Kisma Preserve. Home to abundant local wildlife and , resident animals , Including domestic and non domestic and our favorite, Wolves. . Most of the staff live here full time all year. The sounds of the night are magical. Unleash your imagination and camp here away from the crowds that exist within the local Acadia National Park area which begins about 5 minutes away at Thompson’s Island and the bridge to Mt Desert Island. We are close to basic necessities, and a step away from the masses. We do educational tours daily and if interested these tours are arranged by reservation too. We may allow camping in Winter months but if it is between November and May it is very important to call and find out the accessibility as weather impacts everything. The shower will likely be unavailable in freezing months and some sites are closed. CALL and speak with a staff member before reserving. Self contained Adventure Vans and tent campers with Winter Gear and Rooftop Tents can be accommodated. Or If you want to have a solid roof , screens and a fabulous view ask about reserving our Cadillac Mountain View Loft or if the idea of being naked under the stars is appealing opt for our Raw and Rough site.! Pulling in late, and leaving early for a typical Sunrise reservation.? We can also accommodate that if we know that is all you want. Traveling with your horse.? Talk to us about an Equine site. The Biker’s Bunkhouse is ideal for motorcycle travelers as it shelters both the guest and the Bike/s. Always call, we can answer all questions to get you into the right site for your style of adventuring. With each listing be sure to read all the information. If you are interested in a spontaneous camping adventure, if your luggage got lost or if you just don’t want to deal with transporting camping gear we have a variety of rental equipment.

Any questions, call two zero seven six six seven three two four four, calling is the only way to be certain we receive your communications.

Biker’s Bunkhouse
The experience was amazing. My husband and I stayed here for our first anniversary. It was close to Acadia, which we went to every day. The sounds of the wolves nightly was truly a wonderful sound! We stayed in the bikers bunkhouse. The barn was clean and had everything we needed for a good nights rest. The outdoor shower had hot running water. Heather was a great host and answered all our questions. Thank you for a great experience!

Camping with Wolves
One of a kind!
We camped here for one night. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. Listening to the wolves howl at night was amazing! We also took the VIP tour of the preserve the next day. We got to meet a few of the wolves along with other wildlife they had here. I would highly recommend visiting to anyone with an interest in wolves. I can’t praise this place enough. Such an amazing experience and well worth the price.

I loved camping on Heather's land, it was quite and peaceful. We stayed for 4 nights, didn't have anyone camping next to us. The sites are large and far apart from each other. We could hear the wolves howling at night from our 5th wheel. We saw the sunrise from out trailer window. Close to Acadia park. Took a wolf walk tour, it was amazing. Heather was so helpful with our stay, directions to get to there were easy to follow. I will definitely stay there again. Thanks Heather for a wonderful stay.

Biker’s Bunkhouse
Best way to spend my 40th birthday!
This is a beautiful property with amazing animals that they are super knowledgeable about! You can tell how much they love the property and the animals, it was truly the most beautiful setting for a rustic Maine birthday getaway! The biker's bunkhouse was simple but comfortable and perfectly suited our needs (hammocks for camping in the main garage area and a private bedroom with a surprisingly comfy bed). Portapotty right outside the bunkhouse was extremely clean! There is fresh water and an outdoor shower available on site as well. We took one of the tours, a double wolf walk and it's an experience I will never ever forget! We will definitely return again :) as a Maine native I had always wanted to visit and I'm so glad I did. It's close to Acadia and a lot of fun shops as well! Myself and all my guests had a wonderful time!

Raw and Rough
Howling near Acadia
The site was awesome! Super private, with the exception of the wildlife! Lots of birds and frogs, and true to promise- wolves howling each night. All was as expected and easy to navigate. The host was lovely and offered easy to understand instructions for staying on her land, which was secured with a chainlink-type fence for which you're given a key to come and go as you please. The porta-potty was fairly clean for a porta-potty and the shower was outdoors with hot water. Acadia National park was about a 30ish minute drive (past shops and lobster shacks, it was not unpleasant whatsoever).
