Dunn Point Campground — Lily Bay State Park

The fact that we had water access from our campsite makes this a 5-star experience for me. Sites were private enough and showers were available, although the "comfort station" is about a mile walk away from the campsites. The electrical outlets didn't work in any of the bathrooms, either, so bringing a blowdryer was useless. But that's just a minor inconvenience--everything else was great.

Lily Bay State Park is a great facility.  Most of their sites offer shade.  While the sites do not provide RV hookup ability, there is a dump station on site.  The tenting only sites are premier locations; large and generously spaced.  Almost all of the campsites are spaced well, with screening between them.  The facilities are well maintained.   This was real pleasure to visit in leaf peeping season!

Just.. go to this campground. So worth the long drive up to Moosehead Lake. The Dunn Point section of the campground is more fun than Rowell Cove imo after camping at both. A short trail leads down to the beach and playground. It’s so incredibly quiet you can hear owls hooting and loons calling at night, and pretty much nothing else. So quiet and peaceful.

We were surprised to find the camp sites large and heavily wooded. You could still see you neighbors but they were far enough away to not be a bother. No electric but water was available at sites around the loop. Generators are allowed to run between 8am and 8 pm. Nice swimming beach but quite a hike from the campsites. You are near the water but most sites are not on the water. Vault toilets are usually close by and there is only one shower house for the whole camp located between the loops. Shower house is divided into separate compartments which include toilets and single shower and sink. Ice and firewood was available at the ranger checkpoint station. Sanitation dump was located across the street from the comfort station and camp host. Overall rustic but still nice and comfortable.

There is not much I can add to the other reviews. The park is clean and quiet, and the sites are mostly level. The sites are maintained by Camp Hosts, folks who set up camp for a while, and clean the sites when you vacate. So, if you stay here be sure to thank your host. I highly recommend this park.

Lily Bay is a well-maintained state park that sees a lot of traffic through the year, but has sites that can make you feel isolated. I love to go in the summer when Moosehead is at its warmest. If you're into adventuring, it's a short drive up to Kokadjo and the Golden Road, where you can look for animals of all varieties - even moose!

LILY BAY is amazing 

State Park rates and a great jumping off point for day trips to Baxter / Katadin/ Kineo/ prong pond .etc etc

We love this park and my family has visited there since ot opened .

This gorgeous state park along the shores of Moosehead Lake near Greenville feels like the campgrounds of my youth. Sites are all tucked into the woods with easy access to trails and the lakeshore. Each site offers the usual picnic table and fire ring. 

Well-kept latrines are scattered throughout the campground, as well as drinking water faucets.  A centrally located, and clean bath house with flush toilets, warm individual-use shower rooms, and a great dishwashing sink is a recent addition to this large facility. The only downside is that it can be a 10 to 15-minute walk from the farthest campsite, making most people get in their vehicles just to take a shower or wash dishes.

The great network of trails offer opportunity for hiking and biking in summer and skiing and snowshoeing in winter. The lake, over 35 miles long offers sailing, paddling, swimming and even power boating.  The closest town is conveniently located about 6 miles away for gas and groceries.

Been here several times. We love it here. Staff was greatly helpful. Enjoyed all they had to offer with our grandchildren. Beautiful beach area.  Nice and clean. A great state park!

Stayed here 2 nights in June. Wooded sites on the shore of the largest lake in New England. Our site was large enough for tents and hammocks; which was nice to have options. The sites are also far enough away from each other that you dont feel like you're in an apartment building. Central bath and free shower house with laundry/dish sinks outside was an added bonus. Fire ring and table at each site. Rangers were super nice and helpful. Trails to beach area with a playground for the kiddos. Its pretty remote so make sure you have everything you need before venturing past Greenville. Take the drive up to(and past if you're real adventurous) Kokadjo for moose spotting.

We enjoy our weeks on Moosehead Lake. Lily Bay Campground has spacious and wooded. The staff is very helpful and friendly. There is a beach and a playground. A clean shower and flush toilet facility. The sites have pit toilets that are plentiful and well maintained. Pets are welcomed. There is a boat launch and if you get a water site you can launch your canoe or kayak from there. The hosts clean the sites after check out so they are clean and ready for the next guests. There are no hookups, electric or water on site. Water is available at faucets every few sites. There is a dump station and there is potable water to fill you fresh water tank there. Plenty of hiking, fishing opportunities. You can take a short ride to Greenville for shopping, restaurants, laundry and a hospital. We are Mainers, but Lily Bay always feels like getting away.

We had a great trip here over the Memorial Day weekend. We had a lovely lakeside campsite. The bugs were not too bad. There was a lot of standing water, so I expect that there might be a lot more mosquitoes once the weather heats up. The water was cold in Moosehead Lake.

We have been spending several days at Lily Bay State Park every June. This year, we spent 8 nights into July. The waterfront sites are amazing, especially the Penninsula in Rowell Cove. Bring your Kayaks and paddle to Sugar Island or explore the small islands in Lily Bay. Lots of swimming spots. there are approximately 8 private bath/shower rooms at the central bathhouse and outhouses scattered around the campground areas. There is also a two sink dishwashing station. Sometimes the water is really hot, sometimes it's frigid but the showers are really clean. Don't forget to stock up at the trading post and enjoy food truck Crepes and other shops and restaurants in Greenville then search for moose near Kokadjo, Roach Pond, or Prong Pond. Bring your kayaks and fishing poles! Plan to visit Elephant Mountain and see the site of the B-52 crash. New blue tourist info and landmark signs make finding the once relatively "secret" spots much easier.

great week long stay. staff was friendly and helpful sites we're private hosts on site lots of trail and swimming in the lake.

Beautifully kept park. Plenty of places to launch kayaks, canoes paddle boards etc reservations start early in the year online and waterfront sites sell out fast. They're very strict about protecting their forests and don’t allow wood from out of state -please respect that.

We had a great weekend camping at Lily Bay State Park. Easily accessible as it is a well maintained state park.The staff are friendly and keep the facilities extremely clean. Water access for all via the beach area or reserve early to get a site on Moosehead Lake. Kayaking and swimming are available from the site. Facilities are available. We had some very friendly chipmunks and a doe and fawn walk through our site. For adventurous folks, a ferry ride to Kineo and a hike to the tower is a great way to spend the day. Do your research, ferry schedules are subject to change due to weather. The hike is moderate to hard, but offers some fantastic views of Moosehead Lake.

Lakefront, beautiful and remote. Great area for moose viewing and kayaking

It's it's a great family campground , right on Moosehead Lake.
