    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

    Nice setting for families. Big campground focused on cramming in sites. Not the quietest place…read more Hearing others snoring in next tent, etc. less sites and more trees between them would have been better.

    This is an excellent campsite and it's right in the heart of Acadia which can't be beat…read more Important to note that it's tough to snag a reservation during peak season. We stayed July 4th weekend and when we booked in January this was one of the last tent sites available. Granted it was July 4th, but still something to think about. There are a few lucky tent sites that overlook the water which would be incredible. Maybe next time we can book earlier and snag one. Each site has everything you will need -- a platform for your tent (perfect incase it rains), an electrical outlet, running water, a picnic table and a firepit. It is clean and well-kept, and you are never too far from a bathroom / shower facility. Just note that the shower is $1 for 5 minutes and you'll need quarters. There is a main house where you can buy wood and other supplies. During non-covid times they also have a gathering place where you can buy snacks. I believe the rate is around $50 dollars a night but I'm not sure if the rate changes depending on the weekend, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was higher than normal over July 4th. This is a wonderful campsite and I'd happily return. In comparison, I've also camped at the Oceanside KOA in Bar Harbor and this campsite is way better. Be sure to check it out!

    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.

    Overall this is an adequate camp ground. I felt like the website was somewhat misleading because…read moreit seemed like there was access to the sea (if your a rock climber you can make it otherwise it's not safe. The river that is on the property is more like a stream and aside of looking at it there isn't much else you could do with it... You have to pay additional for Internet Access which is typical for state campgrounds but I thought it was included... The site itself was clean and well maintained. The bathrooms and showers were clean and well kept. This place was ok overall but I expected more based on what we paid per night....

    Campground is an older, no frills facility that really lives up to a state promotional saying…read more"Maine, the way life should be". CASH / CHECKS ONLY. While sites are small and close, we had adequate room for our camper and truck side by side and then room to sit and enjoy the sounds of the Atlantic Ocean from less than 100' away. Our site shared a utility post with neighbor site (front end and wrong side for us as back in unit) and voltage showed low so we used post on next site from us (they were tenting and didn't need power and said ok to plug to their post) Lots of children while we were there, but they were all so well behaved and everyone was enjoying the cool Seabreeze compared to the stifling temps further in town. Lots of rules and regs at this place, but that's part of what made it the perfect location for us during this trip. It gets a 4 out of 5 due to low voltage and utility hookups in a bad setup for us. We're ok with no sewer dump on our site (you can use their's once for every 3 nights or pay extra) but we're use to state parks and such so it was no problem.

    This campground is a well kept secret favorite place for us…read more It is a privilege to be able to stay in such a peaceful and breath-takingly gorgeous spot. The best part is the camraderie of the other campers, ovbiously from some of these ridiculous comments, not everybody "gets it" (try KOA or DaysInn!) - its the fellow campers tuned into the magic. Thank you Eleanor for all you do to keep this special place accessible, I look forward to coming "home" . My kids' best memories are from the Lobster Buoy and we reminisce often.
