    Bar Harbor/Oceanside KOA

    Great stay

    The campground is beautiful. The sunsets amazing. We are so close to all the activities in the area. People are super friendly and the staff is helpful.

    Hadley's Point Campground

    Nice looking park ! clean

    Nice site one of the more expensive campgrounds in the area. Polite staff I asked if I could rinse off the front and back of Airstream as they have dusty roads here. The said no not even without soap. I asked no we are on a well. First time I was told no in two years of travel . Even in upscale parks most let you rinse the bugs off

    Not a real complaint just a note .

    Acadia Seashore Camping and Cabins

    Beautiful spot but...Meh...🤦🏼‍♀️

    So we got there & was escorted to our spot which seemed nice. It took awhile to get rid of them so we could get set up.

    We got everything set and we have a mat we put down. Well, the grass is like straw & we were not allowed to have the mat on their dead grass??

    In our spot, for 6 nights, we had no shade at all!!! All these nice ocean front ones that were there we assigned to people there for 2-3 days! Wth!!!

    Their honey wagon waa broke down so we had to pull everything in to empty our grey water.

    I went and asked about how much the laundry machines were and 30 mins later it was a little painful. You have to sign up to do laundry and schedule your time. Ok, well I did 2 loads for $14 and my hours was up and one load was not completely dry. She explained that ONE TIME some families got their clothes mixed up as they were all trying to leave at one morning. So, instead of them looking at this as an exception, they put this sign up system in place. So, complete overreaction and changed every other's experience in the future.

    As our neighbor described it as a RIDGED HOA. The kind that worry about everything you do and don't do.

    Bar Harbor/Oceanside KOA

    Great choice

    The Campground offers basically everything that’s needed for a good experience. There are kids amenities and activities, there’s a shop inside of the campground with a little of everything you might need. We rented a site next to the ocean, and it was great!

    Jo-Mary Campground

    Yea, beautiful location, but overpriced & lacking

    They charged us almost $400 for two tent sites, for two nights.  They are clearly resting on their laurels, need to hire more help for peak periods, be in the office when they need to be available and answer their phones and return phone calls, and also need to check for garbage left by previous campers and have their port-a-potties emptied way more often (gross!)

    If you can get past the price gouging and lack of attention to detail, the place IS beautiful and enjoyable.

    Bar Harbor/Oceanside KOA

    Best camp views of 2025 season

    I’m always appreciative when booking KOA. This site did not disappoint. Tricky parking but wonderful to have the views to myself and one other neighbor. Beach front, able to swim and SUP right from the campsite. Amazing fire pit. Bathrooms are far, and only 3 showers, one was down. But they were clean. Overall will book again.

    Mount Desert Campground

    The best Campground in Maine

    This place is the perfect mix of feeling like you're rustic camping on the water with decent amenities. Not many RV's will fit so, mostly tent camping. Un-level sites have platforms to put your tent on. The office even has hammer and nails for you to use to secure everything. Fresh ground local coffee every morning and local Giffords ice cream at night at their "Gathering Place". Kids ride their bikes everywhere. I'd say kids get to be just the right amount of feral here. It's a safe, quiet and fun park. Best you'll find on MDI and in Maine. It's one of our top in the USA, to be honest.

    Blackwoods Campground — Acadia National Park

    Clean, quiet, beautiful

    Despite being a fully booked campground our stay was very enjoyable. It was quiet, other campers were respectful. The bathrooms are dated but clean. There is a designated dishwashing drain to keep animals away from the campsites. Best part though was the lack of biting flies and mosquitoes!

    Cold River Campground

    Just ok

    Pretty small site but nice layout. Wifi was terrible. Had to listen to an argument from a neighbor. Someone was parked in the spot and had to move so i could back in

What to do:

  • Hiking: Explore the numerous trails in Acadia National Park. One camper mentioned, “I love that the southern ridge trailhead for Cadillac mountain leaves from the campgrounds and connects to a bunch of other trails” at Blackwoods Campground.
  • Wildlife Watching: Keep an eye out for local wildlife. A visitor at Seawall Campground noted, “Many other reviewers have reported seeing Moose near or in the campground here.”
  • Kayaking: Enjoy the water activities available nearby. A reviewer at Bar Harbor/Oceanside KOA shared, “Our waterfront site was terrific - gorgeous view, and we could launch our kayaks directly from the site.”

What campers like:

  • Clean Facilities: Campers appreciate well-maintained restrooms. One reviewer at Mount Desert Campground said, “Restrooms were very clean and there was plenty of hot water for the coin-operated showers.”
  • Spacious Sites: Many campgrounds offer roomy sites. A visitor at Schoodic Woods Campground mentioned, “The sites are carefully designed so that although you might hear your neighbor you likely will not see them.”
  • Friendly Staff: Campers often highlight the helpfulness of campground staff. A reviewer at Smuggler's Den Campground noted, “Check-in was easy and staff was friendly.”

What you should know:

  • Reservation Policies: Some campgrounds, like Bar Harbor Campground, operate on a first-come, first-served basis, which can be tricky during peak season. One camper warned, “Be aware there are 2 websites for this location; they have 2 cancellation policies.”
  • Limited Amenities: Not all campgrounds have showers or full hookups. A visitor at Schoodic Woods Campground mentioned, “There are no showers onsite so come prepared.”
  • Privacy Levels Vary: Some sites may be close together, affecting privacy. A camper at Seawall Campground commented, “While campsites are deep and set off the road, some of them open up to each other at the rear points of each site.”

Tips for camping with families:

  • Family-Friendly Activities: Look for campgrounds with amenities for kids. A reviewer at Smuggler's Den Campground said, “The playground was great for the kids. The swimming pool was a highlight as well.”

  • Use Dump Stations Wisely: Be aware of dump station locations. A visitor at Hadley's Point Campground noted, “The only negative was lack of enough sewer necessitating a $12 pump out.”
