Just outside of Greenville is the Little Moose Pond Public Lands. This campsite is one of five primitive campsites located in the tract. The easiest and quickest way to access the campsite is from the Little Moose Ponds Loop Trailhead on Old Squaw Road. From the Loop Trailhead, the campsite is just about a mile walk. The trail is well-marked, just follow the signs and the orange blazes until you see the sign for Little Moose Pond campsite which is just off the main trail. 

The campsite is tucked in the woods so you get some shade and privacy. Since you are right on the water, there are great views of the pond and surrounding woodlands. The site is on the north side of the pond so the morning sunshine greets you and the sunset lights up the southern hillside in the evening. Picnic table, fire pit, and a makeshift toile are provided. The toilet is essentially a toilet seat on a wooden box so there is no privacy but it is tucked away from the trail and campsite enough that it can’t be seen. You will need to call 207-695-3721 to see about obtaining a burn permit before starting a fire. The only water source is from the pond but there is a rake in case embers land outside the fire pit. A couple of canoes are stashed at the campsite and we were not sure who owns them but one was unlocked and there were two paddles propped against a tree. 

The campsite (and access to the Public Lands) are free and you can stay at the campsite up to 14 days. There is no trash receptacle so you must carry all your trash out with you. The campsite is first-come, first-served. If it is occupied, you can trace back about half a mile to the Big Moose Campsite and see if that is available
