    Several campgrounds around Owls Head, Maine provide cabin accommodations for those seeking a balance between camping and comfort. Lobster Buoy Campsites and Megunticook Campground feature cabin rentals with varying amenities, generally including electricity and basic furnishings. Most cabins come equipped with beds, tables, and chairs, while bathroom facilities are typically shared in central locations. "The campground is located in S. Thomaston which is a great location and beautiful area. The access to water and views are really pretty spectacular," noted one visitor about Lobster Buoy Campsites, which offers waterfront cabin options overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.

    Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Megunticook by the Sea Campground provides cabins with ocean views and proximity to coastal towns like Camden and Rockport. Most properties require advance reservations, especially during peak summer months from May through October. Pet policies vary by campground, with Lobster Buoy and Megunticook both permitting pets in certain cabin units. According to a guest, "The staff/owners were very friendly and my tent site was right on the beach. The sunrise and sunset were absolutely gorgeous."

    Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities range from basic to non-existent, so campers should pack cooking supplies, food storage containers, and easy-to-prepare meals. On-site camp stores at Megunticook and Lobster Buoy provide basic provisions, firewood, and some grocery items. Visitors staying in cabins without bathrooms should pack shower caddies and flip-flops for communal shower facilities. Nearby towns offer additional supply options for longer stays, though stocking up before arrival is recommended during peak summer season.

      Shore Hills Campground & RV Park

      Been coming here for years and always enjoy it.

      We’ve camped here for over fifteen years and always have a great experience. The campground has nice sites, water access, nature preserves and hiking within a short distance and is close to Boothbay Harbor and many other beautiful coastal Maine Towns. Since we have a big-rig, we choose to stay in the full hook-up section in the front (sites 100-149) that has long level pull thru and back-in sites. The only downside of this section is that the sites are in the open with few trees for shade and no privacy between sites. Some sites have a wooden deck on the patio with a railing around it and others have a grassy/gravel patio. RV’s 36’ or less have more choice for sites whether you want shade in the woods or waterfront. Hookups are variable (regarding electric) so be sure to check the map before picking a campsite. A dump station is located in the front of the campground. There are two bathhouses (each with laundry) that are at both ends of the park. Waterfront sites are beautiful with a view of the marsh and tidal river. Just be aware that the tides are 10-12 feet and when the tide is out, you are looking at a mudflat. There are also tent sites that are nicely wooded. Access to the park is easy off the main road and the roads within the campground are easy to navigate. The campground accepts cash or check only. There is no online booking, you either call them directly or fill out a form and mail it to them. There is a kayak launch and the campground does have boats for rent. A great amenity is the shuttle that takes you to downtown Boothbay Harbor since the parking downtown is expensive.

      Narrows Too Camping Resort

      Comfortable and accommodating

      This is our first time at Narrows Too, we fount the staff to be helpful. The sites are big enough to get large RV’s in. There were several 40’-45’ buses and fifth wheels at the campground. Some of the water facing sites are pretty snug but the pull through we had was perfect for us. We would definitely stay here again!

      Mt Desert Narrows Camping Resort

      Convenient to Acadia NP

      Clean, water and electric only at the waterfront, but nice view. I didn't use the facilities so I can't comment on those. $55 a night with military discount and off season.

      HTR Acadia

      Great getaway

      This is our first campground... I'd say the bathrooms are clean and the campground itself is pretty spacious when it comes to parking which isn't what I saw with alor of others. We extended our stay because its been the staff and environment has been really nice. We have site 35 which has been secluded and nice. We are going to 11 which has a partial waterfront view but not super close to water.

      Wild Acadia Camping Resort

      Beautiful Campground and Family Fun Zone

      This campground is wonderful and I highly recommend.  Check-in was a breeze.  There is ample room for multiple rigs to park during check-in.  We reserved a golf cart for our stay as the campground is large.  The golf cart was ready upon our check in.  We were happy that we had it for the week we stayed.

      There is a family fun zone with water slides, pools, mini golf, etc.  It is small enough to easily keep watch over children, but large enough for them to have fun.  There is a little cafe by the pools so parents can easily purchase food and treats without leaving the area.

      We stayed in "D" Loop.  It was very quiet there.  There is space between the campsites and we didn't feel like we were crowded.  

      The entire campground was very clean.  The bathroom/shower facilities and laundry are cleaned multiple times a day.  The campsites and roads were groomed, level and very clean.

      There were always plenty of staff working at any given time.  All were very pleasant and helpful.

      We will definitely stay at this campground again when in the area.

      Lobster Buoy Campsites

      I’m smitten

      Let me start by saying, I’ve “camped” very few times in my life. We ended up here on a whim and I couldn’t have asked for more. The staff were friendly and informative. Even had a cookie for the dog. There were some items for sale as well as a few books about the history of the camp and the owners.

      We were in spot 24. Three sides were surrounded by trees, bushes…nature…you get it. There was a picnic table and a fire pit. It was quiet, we didn’t hear the other campers. There are a few apple trees on the property that lended something to the vibe.

      The views were incredible. The sunset and sunrise were so stunning I ran out of words to describe them.

      The stars were so vibrant. With each passing hour more were revealed.

      If I find myself in Maine needing a little reprieve, I’ll be returning.

      Quietside Campground

      Quiet Indeed. Beautiful!

      Went end of Aug/Early Sept. We stayed in spot WE 8 which neighbors a small creek and forest around most of it. Space was smaller and requires leveling but was perfect for our 20ft Camp Trailer.

      Great Spot

      It's old school in that you can't reserve online, and they only take cash or checks, but the campground is beautiful, clean and well maintained.

    Guide to Owls Head

    Cabin camping near Owls Head, Maine provides access to the state's central coastal region, where the Atlantic Ocean meets a glacially carved landscape characterized by rocky shores and scattered islands. This portion of midcoast Maine receives approximately 48 inches of annual rainfall with summer temperatures averaging 75-80°F during peak season. Winter cabin rentals remain available at select locations, though with limited amenities compared to summer offerings.

    What to do

    Coastal trails and lighthouses: Several campgrounds provide easy access to walking paths along Maine's rocky shoreline. From Megunticook Campground, "the ocean overlook is beautiful in the morning sunrise," according to one camper. The nearby Bass Harbor Lighthouse in Acadia National Park sits roughly 90 minutes from most Owls Head cabin sites.

    Kayaking opportunities: Many cabin sites offer direct water access for paddlers. Sennebec Lake Campground provides "proximity to the lake with easy access for kayaking and swimming," as noted by a regular visitor. Guided kayak tours departing from nearby harbors cost $40-65 per person and provide equipment.

    Local seafood exploration: Fresh lobster and seafood experiences remain central to the area's appeal. One guest at Lake Pemaquid Campground mentioned, "It turns out this is where the locals come to camp when they want to take a weekend trip." Several campgrounds offer on-site seafood boils during summer months.

    What campers like

    Ocean vistas: Waterfront cabin options provide direct views of the Atlantic. At Meguniticook by the Sea Campground, "The views of the ocean are amazing! So peaceful for sunset and morning coffee," according to one visitor. Many cabins face east, providing sunrise viewing opportunities over the water.

    Cedar showers: Several campgrounds feature distinctive shower facilities appreciated by campers seeking comfort. "The cedar showers are awesome!" noted one guest about Megunticook by the Sea. Another visitor described them as "of similar construction to a sauna and it feels like a hot shower outdoors."

    Community atmosphere: Smaller campgrounds foster connection between visitors. Searsport Shores Ocean Campground received praise for its "casual jam sessions every night around the bonfire (bring your instrument and they'll fit you in!)." The campground hosts regular arts and music events throughout the summer season.

    What you should know

    Seasonal operation: Most cabin facilities operate from mid-May through mid-October, with peak rates from late June through August. Some campgrounds close entirely in winter, while others offer limited cabin availability during off-season with reduced services.

    Bathroom arrangements: Cabin accommodations vary significantly in bathroom access. At Duck Puddle Campground, "the bathrooms are dated but clean" according to recent visitors. Some campgrounds charge for hot water showers ($1.50-4.00) while others include shower access with cabin rental.

    Road noise considerations: Several campgrounds near major roadways experience traffic sound. One camper noted about Megunticook Campground: "The campground is located too close to the road and, with the exception of sites 84-87 and cabins 8-10, you will hear road noise in your site."
