Awesome oceanside campground
Small beautiful campground right on the water. Away from the busy stuff but close enough to visit it if you want.

Quiet Low Key on Clam Flat
Small campground with a couple spots for rigs and a wooded area for tenting and small pull behinds. This is not a resort. Simple place to land and enjoy the coast of Maine. The owners Pat and Eric are great hosts. Great place for Clamming. They can issue a town permit for 7 days ($26) and have all the stuff to dig your own. Wi-Fi is good but not great depends on how many people are on. Verizon is spotty. AT&T is pretty good.

Another breathtaking stay......
This is our second year coming back to this same campsite. The owners were very friendly and attentive. This place is charming, rustic, and beautiful scenic. Last year we stayed for 3 days and it wasn't enough, so this year we booked it for 1 week. We have booked 2 sites for next year already, which tells you why we love this place so much.(Check the photos). The campsite is pretty quiet and spacious. Apart from an amazing view, you can't beat it. The campground was very accommodated plus we had 2 service dogs that loved this place so much. You can go down in the water during low tide to do clams hunting(you have to get a license from the front desk). All we can say is that this place is worth the$, time, no and stay. (Erica & Kieran)

Ocean side
Had a great experience! The staff was very friendly. I would say this site has the best view in the whole camp, overlooking the lake and a short walk to the bath house.

Fabulous location - great for dog owners
Biggest dog beach ever when the tide runs out on the sand flats! This is a largely undeveloped campground super for small camp trails and superb for tenting; restroom/shower facilities are spartan but all sites have water taps and staff have a good attitude NOTE: PROOF OF COVID-19 VACCINATION IS REQUIRED FROM ALL ELIGIBLE INDIVIDUALS ENTERING THE PROPERTY No complaints there!

Beautiful Maine Camping
This campground is awesome. We got moved last minute down to the RV Oceanview section which was a great surprise. It’s a wide open field, and you’re definitely next to people with no trees to separate you but the sites have plenty of space. There’s a small beach within about a 1 minute walk, and when the tide goes out you can walk for forever. Lots of people come here to clam. There is not a bathhouse in the RV section (most people are self contained) so that was tough but there was a porta potty. We never made it up to the upper campground to explore the tent sites so can’t speak to up there. We’ll definitely return and check out the rest another time.

Registration process was bad enough we cancelled our reservation
We were looking forward to trying this place out because of its location and views. After three phone calls and three emails trying to confirm our reservation and give payment info, we cancelled our reservation because the whole process was too disorganized and discourteous to inspire confidence. We’re pretty sure our credit card info is sitting on a post-it note somewhere in Georgetown.
Oceanfront and Amazing Stars
We spent the night in one of the Oceanfront RV spots. The RV spots are in a very open field, but they are directly on the water. When the tide goes out you have the entire inlet to walk around in and explore. At night the stars were absolutely amazing!
Month of VisitAugust
Four stars for the facilities, five stars for the oceanfront.
With the ocean just outside our RV the location is hard to beat.
Horrible Customer Service!
If you want any sort of respectful communication or cordial customer service, please do not book here. I made a reservation online and called to pay my deposit; I spoke with owner Eric, who told me he didn’t know how to process my payment. He took my card info and said his wife would email me to confirm to reservation and process the payment, and he then told me what site number I’d be on. After our call, I checked their website and saw that our site number was not one that was waterfront, which is what we paid for. So when his wife, Pat, emailed me to confirm the reservation, I asked her to clarify the site assignment; I mentioned we reserved a waterfront site and the map didn’t show that, so I asked her to let me know if it was in fact waterfront, and if not, if we could be moved since we booked waterfront. Pat’s response was curt and rude, and she basically threatened to not accept our deposit/cancel the reservation if I didn’t“leave it to the campground”. Instead of answering my question or providing clarification, she chose to be snippy and dismissive. I responded to let her know we would just book somewhere else because we didn’t appreciate how she handled the situation and she emailed back to let me know“Do what you must. You will not be missed.” This isn’t the first review I’ve seen that mentions how rude the owners were. I’m surprised this campground is still in business if this is how they treat customers. There are so many other choices- take your money elsewhere!
Great views, smallish sites
The water views are great from the Oceanside sites. There is plenty of thugs to do in the area. July is VERY buggy! The staff are very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely go again.

Amazing Campground
What an amazing campground right on the ocean. we had such a blast here. clamming and floating in with the tide. Fresh lobsters cooked and delivered to our campsite.. Who could ask for anything more in ocean front camping

Swimming, kayaking, clamming + lobster bake at the campground!
Update: OMG, two weeks after our last visit there, the Today Show showed up and held a live show at Sagadahoc Bay! Here is an official clip. Watch the end of this other clip for the correct way to pronounce Sagadahoc LOL)
The owners Pat and Eric are super friendly and accommodating. We have been camping there for three years straight now and look forward to going back each summer.
The most unique feature of this campground happens at low tide when you can walk over a mile out towards the lighthouse on Sequin Island (https://www.seguinisland.org/)..) (You cannot actually reach the lighthouse, mind you.) Plenty of clamming and watching wild life like hermit crabs, crabs, seagulls or your dogs running in joy on the soft clay like surface. The clams there are the sweetest and most delicious I have ever tasted, not to mention freshest. Clamming license, tools for digging and even pots are available at the office. You can order lobster bake and have it delivered to your camp site for dinner. Kayaks and canoes are available for rent, too.
We love the water front sites where you can see the tides come in and out and listen to the waves. On a weekend close to Independence Day, they put on a fireworks show out in the bay at low tide. (Just go to their Facebook page to see pictures.) (Tip: We noticed that the campground cleared out a lot the days after July 4th. Very quiet and possible to go on a last minute camping trip.)
This year we camped there with our dog for the first time and it was delightful to see how much fun he had on the beach, knowing that he was welcome there. Pat even picked a quiet site (#160) for us because we were worried about him barking. And probably because there are many dogs camping there, we never see any raccoon problems at this campground.
Reed State Park (ocean swimming) and Five Islands (great views and seafood) are a short drive away. There is also a country store minutes away where you can get almost anything including hot food.
One word of advice though: It is coastal Maine and there are mean mosquitoes. My all natural bug spray which is usually strong enough for NY bugs is not effective there. So I have to go back to the basic commercial brands like Off which works for hours per spray.
The bath houses are simple but cleaned several times a day. There is no mirror in Bathhouse #2. There is a full length mirror in the toilets side in Bathhouse #1.
We have not taken advantage of that but they also have fully equipped cabins for rent.
If you have kids and dogs, this is a wonderful campground to bring them to. We love, love, love Sagadahoc Bay Campground!
