These are our only Naked sites and if filled on your dates please check out our others in Camping With Wolves, which are slightly less primitive.. or the comfy Cadillac Mt View Loft and Hammock site. Clothing is optional only in the Raw and Rough sites.

      Partridge Pond Trail (moderate, 1.7 miles): Provides access to Partridge Pond and a campsite in 1.3 miles. At 0.8 miles the trail intersects the Ducktail Pond Trail. At 1.1 mile the trail forks: the right fork ends at the Partridge Pond and campsite in 0.2 miles; the left fork continues for 0.6 miles on the west side of Partridge Pond before it dead ends. Campsites are primitive. Each authorized site has a fire ring, picnic table, and privy. Amherst Mountains Community Forest is a 4,974 acre Public Lands parcel with recreation trails and ecologically important forestland surrounding six ponds in the town of Amherst. Wildlife, including peregrine falcons, brook trout, deer, bear, partridge, and woodcock, thrive here; and thousands of migratory birds arrive each spring to nest on these lands. Secluded remote pond camping, hiking, snowmobiling, and ATVing are available here. There are primitive campsites at each pond, with an outhouse at Ducktail Pond and a small box style privy ("wet willie") at Partridge. If camping, camp responsibly.

At the heart of the property is a large farm pond that has been used to water livestock for generations. We hope you can visit us soon!

      Blackwoods Campground — Acadia National Park

      Great access to all Acadia highlights

      Campground is large but very well designed. About half of the sites are spacious but others are more crowded. Very well maintained with cleaning crew in everyday to maintain restrooms and trash receptacles. The campground has access to ocean trails and Cadillac Mountain. No showers in the campground but private showers are available right outside the campground. The park shuttle has a stop at the campground and I never had to drive out of the campground. It was awesome since I visited at the busiest time of the year.

      The Bar Harbor Campground

      Perfect camping spot

      We thought our camp site was perfect . There was just enough privacy for us. Plenty of trees between us and our neighbors. The showers were easy to use and got hot fast, 5 minutes was honestly long enough. The area was nice and clean. There was even a great view when walking my dog. Acadia was about 16-20 minutes away depending on where you wanted to go. Would definitely stay again.

      Schoodic Woods Campground — Acadia National Park

      Quieter Area of Park

      We spent 3 nights in Acadia National Park. Our first night was at the Blackwoods Campground and the last 2 were at the Schoodic Woods Campground. This review is for Schoodic Woods. 

      Before visiting Acadia I didn't realize that the 2 areas of Acadia National Park are pretty far from each other. Blackwoods Campground is on Mount Desert Island and is only about a 10 minute drive to Bar Harbor whereas Schoodic Woods Campground is on the Schoodic Peninsula and is closer to an hour away. I found Schoodic Woods to be more peaceful and more spaced out than Blackwoods. It felt further removed from the usual action of a national park. The sites were large and private. We stayed in a long, pull through site which I honestly tend to avoid because they sometimes feel less private but that was definitely not the case here. Our site had electricity, water hook ups and a fire ring. 

      The bathroom (no showers) was probably the nicest and cleanest I've ever been to at a campground. 

      There are several hiking paths from the campground including one that takes you down to the bay which is about a mile away. The Schoodic Peninsula has a ring road which you can drive around and we stopped at Schoodic Point which was spectacular- huge waves crashing against the rocks. The small town of Winter Harbor is also only about a 5 minute drive from the campground. 

      All in all, I really loved this campground. We had a very peaceful time!

      Less crowded part of ANP

      Quiet and private sites in tent only - some extremely private! Simple clean facilities - no hot water or dish cleaning area. A few nice hikes on this part of ANP (visit the lighthouse but don’t wait for a parking spot…park and walk down .5 mile road!) while farther from most of ANP, all is very easy to get to, not more than 30 min to Bar Harbor. We also stayed 2 nights in Blackwoods and while nice, this campground was more private.

      Nice to camp in ANP

      Busy but nice sites-all are pull through- fairly flat and wide for some privacy. Facilities clean-no cleaning station or hot water. Busier part of the park but very central to all - stayed here 2 nights in the RV/non-electric loop and then had a spot at Seawall which was much quieter and private (stayed in tent only on seawall…) short walk from campground to small ocean vista. Also left from the campground to hike Cadillac Mtn South Trail (no pass needed!)

      Bar Harbor Oceanside KOA

      Bar Harbor/ Oceanside KOA Holiday

      The KOA staff were very friendly and helpful, the facilities were very clean, and the store was well-stocked. The sites were a bit close, but the neighbors I had during my stay would be out and about during the day if I didn't happen to be out and about in Acadia NP or Bar Harbor myself... so that kind of made up for it. The first few nights of my stay was spent in the "Premium" section where we were on the other side of the road from the "Oceanfront" sites--it almost felt like Oceanfront sites when Big Rigs weren't blocking the view. The next 5 nights we were at an "Oceanfront" site, which was really great and worth the extra money to watch the seals, birds, and easy access for kayaking. HOWEVER--despite knowing privacy isn't really something you can find at most KOAs, it was SHOCKING to me the lack of social awareness some people have at sunset. Despite being next to the public oceanfront area (where lovely chairs and tables are provided) people would literally walk to the Oceanfront campsites and stand there snapping photos or just hanging around at sunset, even if my husband and I were sitting down at our picnic table eating our dinners and trying to enjoy the sunset together. (Picture provided [with blocked faces) of just one of the couples one evening standing right next to our firepit... maybe 10ft from where we were setting up dinner on our picnic table.) So... be prepared with how to handle that if it's something you think may bother you, too.

      Bar Harbor Oceanside KOA

      Great location, super crowded

      The Bar Harbor KOA delivered what it promised, but I am not sure we’d return.  The staff was very friendly and helpful.  They deliver nicely bagged firewood and have daily garbage pickup.  The bathrooms were clean and camp store well stocked.  The Island Explorer bus for Acadia stops at the campground.  There are rv, tent, and cabin options.  Our waterfront site was terrific - gorgeous view, and we could launch our kayaks directly from the site.  The fire pit was big and sturdy.  There were great sunrises and sunsets.   The location is an easy drive for downtown for Bar Harbor, North East Harbor and South West Harbor.

      My challenge with the KOA is the sites were so close together.  Everyone was really packed in, with no buffer between sites.  The 339 - 342 sites were literally bumper to bumper.   It is a very busy campground.   If  you are looking for privacy, this is not the place to go.

      Schoodic Woods Campground — Acadia National Park

      Get comfortably back to nature at Schoodic Campground

      We just spent 4 wonderful nights here and it is possibly my favorite campground, ever. The campground is relatively new and although they could have fit more sites in here, I am so glad they did not. The sites are carefully designed so that although you might hear your neighbor you likely will not see them. We sleep in our van and also have a tent for storage and changing. Every tent site has electric, and water is available at the bathhouse. There is also a dishwashing station there, as well as trash, recycling, and food scrap bins. There are no showers, but you can wash up in the bathhouse and also heat water at your site for a quick wipe down. That was fine for us for 4 nights. There are some negative reviews on here about the lack of showers but maybe this is just not the campground for them. There are plenty of other campgrounds in the area that have showers. If that's what you're looking for ....

      We stayed at A48 and loved it.  The driveway is deep, so we felt very secluded, especially at night. The only thing we didn't like about this site is that the fire ring is in the middle of the site.  We moved the picnic table to the side and had room, but it did. limit our options for the tent a little bit. 

      This is a dark sky park so no string lights or anything like that and as a result it is also VERY quiet at night. Very dog friendly and everyone seemed very responsible as far as no barking and picking up after their pets.

      At night we drove over to Fraser Point and took amazing photos of the northern lights. Not for the feint of heart, though — it is VERY dark! This is such an amazing campground, I almost don't want to tell you because it feels like a hidden little secret!

      Spacious, green and private

      We stayed here for two nights. We had a nice spot on the c-loop.

      The spaces are (more or less) private and spacious. The best thing about this camp ground is the total darkness and silence at night. A truly wonderful experience in a world that often is polluted by light.

      Close by are two nice hiking trails and a lighthouse. All definitely worth a visit.

      We would definitely return.

      NPS needs to go back to FCFS

      We stayed at Seawall campground for a week. Took me 5 days of being diligently by my computer as the “bank” opened up to get a site. Finally did. Thankfully. However once we arrived, we came in to a 95% at capacity campground with over 50% of the sites having no one on them. And it stayed that way for a week. Booked up, and no one there while others get the shaft. Outside of that, the sites were nice, the rangers were great and the facilities were upkept well. NPS is failing us all with online booking.

      Overall, this was a nice place to stay. The laundromat was helpful. The bathrooms were fairly clean. We had a beautiful view from our campsite! Not all campsites had full hookup and we were told that one of the dump stations worked, but as we were leaving, we realized it didn’t.

      Bass Harbor Campground

      Hidden Gem When Visiting Acadia National Park

      We stayed at this campground unexpectedly as two places I was looking at would not accept reservations less than 24 hours in advance. They had availability, offered wooded tent spots, and were affordable as some campgrounds anymore are charging an arm and leg to camp. When we arrived, the girls in the office were super sweet. They had the essentials needed if you are in a pinch, a cute gift shop for the Bass Harbor Lighthhouse (bring your lighthouse passport with you to get stamped here), have coffee/muffins in the morning, washrooms were very clean, laundry, dog park, dog run, small rec center, and pool. Tent sites are nicely wooded and spaced out, so you are not on top of one another. Quiet hours are between 10 PM and 7 AM, and it was so nice to camp in peace and quiet with others wanting the same thing. There are homes close by, but they are fenced off and really are out of sight, so it's not really an issue. The Bass Harbor Lighthhouse is literally 500 feet away. We could hear the bouy ding from our campsite. There are two beautiful hiking trails .7 miles away from the campgrounds: Ship Harbor and Wonderland, that bring you to beautiful ocean views. One of the Acadia Park entrances is 5 minutes away. Southwest Harbor is a short ride away to grab an ice cream or a nice dinner. There is a brand new mini golf center further down the road that is amazing!! The Acadia Mountain trail is not far nor is the Cranberry Island Ferry. This was a prime location to see another side of Bar Harbor, see beautiful sites and avoid the crowds of downtown Bar Harbor. So happy I stumbled across this campground by accident. I would highly recommend and will definitely return!

      Blackwoods Campground — Acadia National Park

      Fantastic campground in the middle of everything

      Well maintained campground with clean bathrooms right the heart of the park. I love that the southern ridge trailhead for Cadillac mountain leaves from the campgrounds and connects to a bunch of other trails. Campsites are close together but that’s on par for all the national parks. And big shoutout to Ferd and the other rangers at the station for helping me clean and dress a wound when I clipped my finger with my hatchet. They were all very kind and patient.

      Fantastic spot for a long weekend

      This was really a beautiful spot to set up camp. I stayed here for only 1 night as I had reservations in Acadia (about 45 minutes outside Acadia) but I will absolutely come back in the future. The hike in is only about 1/2 mile so it’s totally doable even if you need to make two trips. The spots are secluded enough but not isolated. People in the other campsites were very friendly and respectful. Had dinner on the beach as the sun set behind the lake and the hike the next morning was a good climb for only about a 3+ mile hike.

      10/10 experience!

      The owners were so incredibly nice and helpful! They not only surprised our girls with picks of their own antique dolls on arrival but they gave us their own brochure with hidden gems all around the area. We got to hike some of the best spots without the crowds and even got to catch starfish at a spot nearby. The sites are a bit crowded but the view we had more than made up for it. We will 100% be returning!
