Dead River Peninsula State Park holds this drive-in dispersed campground along Long Falls Dam Road, managed by Maine Bureau of Parks and Lands. The layout runs about 10 long, narrow sites bordered by large rocks and the road itself, with a single vault toilet on site. Paved road ends just past the campground, which limits through traffic. The Dead River runs directly across the road, and moose sightings have been reported along the backroads here. Anglers may want to explore the lake above the dam, a short distance up the road. For campgrounds near Caratunk and the surrounding region, options extend in several directions. Pets are welcome.
