Katy K.

we can't say enough wonderful things about this campsite! First, let me say I'm a new camper and more of a glamper! I say to emphasize how special this place is. The owner, Lori, is amazing. She has an incredible attention to detail and has thought of so many little details for comfort: an outdoor shower, big enough for two, with room to change, along with an added foot ledge for ladies to shave (!), two indoor showers, an indoor sink with mirror and outlet for hairdryer. ice and wood for purchase. You can even order lobster a day ahead of time and they will be delivered, fresh caught! Lori has a lobster pot for you to cook on campfire! A sweet woman, Judy, cleans the bathrooms daily and empties all the trash cans onsite. I'm telling you, the place is so clean! There's an outdoor dishwashing station at the office along with super clean black/brown water disposal, easy access to potable water hose. The latrine's are so nice, spacious, clean! A mirror, hand sanitizer and trash can both inside and out. They are perfectly spaced out and convenient. I haven't even mentioned the views or the beach yet!! We loved our location. Site has electric hook up, fire pit and picnic table (wood, not plastic as you find at some sites). There are Adirondack chairs in a field above the water to enjoy the view. We watched the sunset there and then back later to star gaze. We brought paddle boards and easily navigated them to the beach. The waters were great for boarding. This will be the gold standard for me on future camping!

The one downside was proximity to other sites, not sure what I expected so I don't know how to judge that one. Campsite was also centrally located and had us on the trails within 15 min. Will return for sure.

This place has gotten SCARY and creepy!! Let me start by saying that I personally have been camping…read morehere since 1988, and my family longer. Someone who looked homeless came unannounced into my campsite at 1030 pm!, when my kids were asleep in the tent. When I asked why they didn't announce themselves they got offended and gave me a really hard time, getting very upset with me, even after simply explaining why I was uncomfortable. This happened 2 different nights. After this they then called my wife while we were on a hike very upset with me for questioning why their staff members came into out site 2 different nights unannounced. I thought, in reality, if I pay $500 for a few nights in the woods I had the right, as a customer, to ask simply why they kept coming into my campsite; but apparently I was wrong when it came to this campground. If you like paying tons of money for campsites to have staff come into your site to bother you in the late hours of the night this is the campground for you.

Greenlaw's RV Park & Campground - A must visit! Eat at LDI Lobster, right off the Deer Isle Bridge. The food is always excellent and the view is amazing

A quaint campground in Stonington, Maine with plenty of good RV & tent sites, a clean bathhouse…read morewith hot showers, laundry and toilets. Camp wood and lobster pots were supplied for cooking lobster & marshmallows at the campsite, though the wood was not well seasoned & smoked a lot. I've also seen deer & hawks in the campground and they are beautiful to watch. There is potable water, electric hook up and a dump station. All the fellow campers I've met at this campground were friendly and helpful and Troy & Monica White are great hosts. Troy goes out of his way to meet his campers & their needs. There is a great little market about 8 min. away called Burnt Cove Market where you can get anything you need including gas, ice, groceries & a bottle of wine. I have enjoyed this campground two years in a row and there are plenty of things to do and see on & around Deer Isle and Stonington including Nellieville, a must see village of life sized junk people created by sculptor, Peter Beerits (https://www.nervousnellies.com/about-us/). There is also an enlightening presentation on the history of the coastal fishing/lobstering market in Maine given down at Stonington Harbor by Leroy Weed, an engaging and very knowledgeable, lifelong lobsterman. There are harbor cruises (we went with Captain Walker who enjoyed sharing additional history and his upbringing on the harbor), and of course those Maine lobsters, as well as shops, and great food. Will definitely be coming back again in the future!

Our host is the most friendly and accommodating person in this clean and spacious and Safe…read morecampground. I have stayed here for 2 years and plan to make it a summertime habit!

This was our 6th year of staying at Megunticook and we've loved every visit. Frankly didn't even…read morenotice the change of ownership and this year some of the staff who were here when we first came in 2021 are now back. The site is clean, well-maintained and above all quiet and peaceful. The pool is just right - as are the outdoor showers and bath house. We're booked for next year and will share more photos. We have a Roadtrek Van and also set up a screen house (we call it our living room). Previously we had fires at night but it was kinda warm so we didn't indulge. Another favorite thing to do is to take our morning coffee (or our eventing cocktail) and sit on the chairs overlooking the ocean. If peaceful wooded experiences are for you, this is a great deal. Bonus in that it is close to Rockland and even Camden for even more fun.

This is our fourth treat to camp megunticook and probably our last…read more Has the camp ground changed no, still nestled in the Maine woods, with a cliff top view you can walk to and see the ocean beyond. However it's been sold out to a corporation and as it's typical they are only after the $$$. You can not pre book for the following year, and the have a season camp manager, who although very nice has no answers to anything other than call the 1-800 number. We met many ppl over the week we were here and most of them repeat travelers who agree this may be their last year due mainly to the attitude and corporate hospitality, aka none. It's a shame, this was a nice family feel and accommodating camp ground. Our family have been coming here for three generations. The campground itself is pretty much unchangeable, the amenities could be upgraded and spruced up, but we come for the feel of the grounds. The cold corporate feel it's already having is making us think twice sadly.

Cottonwood Camping & RV Park - This was a short drive as Cottonwood is only about 8 miles from the coast, just west of Englishman Bay.

Folks, I don't really know what to say other than 'you just gotta come here!'…read moreI love this place! I came through on a hum last year, stayed for 2 nights and 3 days. Told Shirley (the owner) I would be back "next year" to help out, and here I am, Aug. 8th, 2019, sad to leave after spending 4 weeks in the grand teepee, helping out around the camp. Off route 1, into the woods, to grandmama's RV we go! But it is so much more... tent sites, group sites, great trails, and great vibe from the surrounding community. But what you really want to know is; this is a great base for exploring coastal Maine & Downeast. Now understand 2 things... Downeast is on the coast, but when the term 'downeast' is used, it is very much a reference to the culture of the folk who grew up and live here and have also known it through the generations of their family. Once you get here, you're in the thick of what "coastal Maine" really is without the crowds of Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, etc.. from Cottonwood you will find within 20 mins. Never crowded beaches with all the beauty of those other places... and you can also make a day trip of getting to Easport or Calaise and just breath in New Brunswick! Oh yeah, bring your passport... One of the other things I love about camping here, are the various small sites that are suitable for bicyclers and bikers who travel with minimal gear and need to stop for short stays. Even though its right off the road, once in, you're cast into the woods! Oh yeah, and I can't think of another camp with such a great bath house along this route... Cottonwood Camping is truly a great experience and my pick as a base for exploring Downeast, Coastal Maine, the far north on the east side of the U.S. Shirley Cotton makes it happen! She is the BOMB!!

I can honestly say this place was easy to find and very photogenic. Easy to recommend.read more
