Tent / Small RV Sites

Enjoy a unique camping experience on the edge of 20 acres of rolling sand dunes at the famed Desert of Maine! Just 8 minutes from the famous LL Bean flagship store and the outlet shops of Freeport, 20 minutes to downtown Portland, and close to all that mid-coast Maine has to offer, this quiet, secluded campground changed ownership in 2019 and has been completely renovated. Featuring a luxurious bath house, spacious sites, new water/electric infrastructure, a self-serve camp store open 24x7, lawn games, and thoughtful touches throughout, this campground is a hidden gem. There are 27 sites overall.  NOTE: When you book, we try to assign you to your chosen site, but since Hipcamp doesn't sync with our reservation software, we assign the best available site at the time of booking.

Every site at this campground is great for tent camping, but these sites can also accommodate small RVs (with the exception of sites 21 and 24). We limit RVs to vans, tear drops, pop-ups, truck campers, and small travel trailers. Anything under 18' should be fine, but travel trailers will only fit in a few of our sites. Every site has water and electricity and each is equipped with a fire ring (w/ integrated grill) and a picnic table. Campground guests enjoy 15% off admission to the Desert of Maine where they can learn about the fascinating history of the Desert and the quirky characters that have made it an iconic and beloved tourist destination for nearly 100 years. There are self-guided tours for history and science buffs, a one-of-a-kind natural playground, an imaginative labyrinth called “Gemstone Village” for kids, a Fossil Dig experience, a 1924 Fort Model T photo opp, a new mini golf course (opening June 2022), a snack bar serving ice cream, kielbasa, kettle corn, and more, and charming Gift Shop.
