HTR Acadia

We stayed at Somes Sound Campground for 5 days. It was extremely pleasant. Our site was on a hill but getting the camper in was easy. Water pressure was low, but the WiFi was awesome. The young children were a little loud at times, but ok. There were several 1 or 2 night neighbors in tents. But there was plenty of firewood available cheap. The bathrooms were clean and well placed. It was also on the Somes Sound / Atlantic Ocean. The views were breathtaking.

This campground was the perfect spot to hand the hammock for the week. Close to Bar Harbor as well as many areas of the park. They have a clean bathhouse, swimming pool, waterfront with a dock for reading or fishing or just watching the sun rise. Sites are mostly for tent campers with several the will support small compact trailers or Class C. All sites have electric and water but no black water hookups. They will come pump you out for a $25 fee, which we thought was reasonable. This park was very quiet and personnel who worked there very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Beautiful views, friendly people clean and quiet. Lots of outdoor activities for families and outdoor enthusiasts. Close enough to Acadia National Park and BarHarbor for sightseeing, beach going, outdoor sports and hiking There are great restaurants and waterfront activities nearby. It’s great for families but quiet and relaxing enough for a romantic getaway. This campground is dog friendly and immaculately maintained. Strict and safe policies during the pandemic made this a comforting vacation option.

This was our first camping experience and we loved it. Camground is very beautiful with lots of colored trees, you can enjoy fall colors just outisde your tent. Every campsite has tap water for cleaning dishes and charging points. Wood and ice is available at reasonable cost. Checkin and payment process was super smooth.

Staff was nice and flexible, facilities were clean. Great for friends and family

...but remember that sound travels over water. This is truly a stunning little spot and it was so peaceful, until it wasn’t. I snagged the best spot right on the waters edge on a platform. The night I happened to stay here I had a very noisy group of young adults show up around 9pm and were up until 3 in the morning chatting and laughing. Showers were clean and the woman at the front was friendly and helpful.

Due to covid19, it’s impossible to reserve the campsite in Acadia National Park. This campsite is outside of NP but it’s really close and easy to access everywhere. Very quite and nice place to enjoy the beautiful summertime. Also, the ocean is just in the campsite, even though the water is really cold but we saw few dolphins and seals, we had a great time here. It will definitely be recommended to the people who come to Acadia National Park.

Great campground. Staff is helpful, sites are clean. Definitely a tent friendly place. 90% of the sites are well shaded, and most have plenty of room. Do your research not all the sites here are created equal. Proximity to Acadia National Park, Southwest Harbor, and all the great things to do in the area is perfect. Great pool and other facilities. Found this place because the State Parks closed camping due to Covid, what a great find. We will definitely be back.

I showed up to Maine unprepared with a place to stay. Somes Sound View Campground was the only campground I could find in the area with availability. The entire staff during my 6 nights was very friendly. I stayed at two different sites during my stay due to my first one being reserved after my fourth night. Both sites were very nice. The sites were equipped with hammock trees, fire rings, picnic tables, and even running water and electricity! One of the nights we heard a bunch of coyotes howling nearby which was pretty cool. Very clean and nice showers too

Stayed a few times - on the water and farther up the camp ground! Great place last visit had very loud neighbors but other then that great service, clean, affordable!

Such a great place! We stayed right by the water and it was just breath taking. Restrooms were clean and the owners/workers are nice and helpful. We will defiantly be back.

This campground was great. Beautiful view of the water. Highly recommend the waterfront sites. Some of the sites are small but the view makes up for it. Limited general store but clean bath house and pool. Anchor campground is tucked in your own corner and pretty private!

Wooded and quiet private sites with some on the ocean. Close to Acadia N.P.

We decided to move around and camp in 3 locations to fully experience all that Acadia had to offer, but this easily became my favorite. And we have already booked a second trip only staying there!

The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating. I camp with my dog and that was absolutely no problem. No breed restrictions which is a huge plus.

We stayed close to the water and had plenty of room for parking and setting up camp. The grounds were kept clean and easily accessible.

I can’t say enough great things about the location, the staff, and the campground overall. We cannot wait to go back!
