Campground Review

This is one of the Maine State Park campgrounds, which can be reserved for two or more nights on weekends and one or more nights on Sunday through Thursday. You don't really need reservations except for the summer and holiday weekends. This is a beautiful park that we have camped at many times on our way up the Maine coast heading to Canada or for an extended stay. It is on the coast. Sites should be checked, because some are for tents only, but they are beautiful with a water view. There are some sites for RVs in an open area and also in a secluded area that you need to back in, and some are drive through right on the coast.
The tent sites and some of the RV sites are some of the best I have ever seen on the rocky coast of Maine. There are 24-foot tides here heading up through the Bay of Fundy. One can go hiking, clamming or touring. Quoddy Head is near by, and a visit to Roosevelt-Campobello Island is a must. Check passport requirements that will be needed within a year, if you decide to cross over to Canada. The shores are rocky and beautiful with a lot of wildlife. This is one of our favorite campgrounds, and it is not crowded like some of the other state parks, because it is on the Canadian border. We camped here in a motorhome in September 2005.
