Lunenburg RV Park and Campground

55 RV Sites

Lunenburg RV Park and Campground puts guests within walking distance of Old Town Lunenburg, Nova Scotia — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — with 55 RV sites carrying 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 70 feet. Full-hookup, water-and-electric, and dry camping categories are all available, on a campground owned and operated by a non-profit. Fifty-five back-in sites run in full-hookup, water-and-electric, and dry camping configurations, the serviced sites carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 70 feet, with site WiFi. A dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Worth knowing: the campground is run by a non-profit that also operates two visitor information centers in Lunenburg, and like many operators it has faced staffing pressures — patience with service levels goes a long way here. Pets are welcome. The walkable position is the whole proposition. Old Town Lunenburg's 18th-century British colonial grid, the brightly painted wooden buildings climbing the hillside above the harbor, the working fishing boats at the waterfront wharves, and the Bluenose II's tall ship presence make this one of the most authentically preserved historic maritime communities in North America — and you can reach all of it on foot from your site rather than driving in and hunting for parking. Lunenburg sits on Mahone Bay's southwest shore, the most visited and most photographed community in Nova Scotia after Peggy's Cove. The Nova Scotia season is short and concentrated. Summer is decisively the peak — reserve well ahead for July and August.

Columbia Falls, ME

Cottonwood Camping and RV Park

16 RV Sites, 4 Cabins, 7 Tent Sites, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer, 1 Treehouse

Cottonwood Camping and RV Park in Columbia Falls, ME, offers 17 RV sites, 5 cabin and treehouse rentals, and 7 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 70 feet. Sites are labeled by exactly what they deliver: water-and-electric back-ins at 30-amp, 20-30-amp, and 20-30-50-amp, plus full-hookup 20-30-50-amp pull-throughs and a camper rental. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. At 70 feet the pull-throughs take long coaches. A general store, a snack bar, firewood, a dump station, and walking trails cover the rest. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. A pond, picnicking, and planned activities fill the grounds, with a state park and off-road riding nearby. The treehouse accommodations are the standout. Columbia Falls sits at 1140 US Highway 1 in the blueberry barrens and coastal forest of Downeast Maine. The Blueberry gift shop is across the street, and the Ruggles House and Old School House are in the village. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. Blueberry season and the short Downeast summer both fill the park.

Lakeville, ME

Wild Fox Cabins & Campground

6 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 4 Tent Sites

Wild Fox Cabins and Campground in Lakeville, Maine, offers six RV sites, eight cabins, and four tent sites across 155 secluded acres on Junior Lake, with 30-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 35 feet, open all year. A single power-and-water category joins a boat ramp, boat docks, kayak and boat rentals, and 3,600 feet of shoreline. Six back-in sites carry water and electric on 30-amp, sized to 35 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two things to plan around: the sites carry water and electric rather than sewer, and the 35-foot cap rules out larger coaches — this suits vans, small trailers, and truck campers. Eight cabins and four tent sites make this substantially a cabin property. A general store, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The park points guests to Maine's online license portal, GPS Trailmasters for ATV routes, and the ITS system for snowmobile trails. A boat ramp, boat docks, boat rentals, and kayak rentals open the lake for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, with walking trails, hiking, horseshoes, corn hole, a pond, and exceptional birding filling the rest. Offroading is nearby. One hundred fifty-five acres and 3,600 feet of shoreline for six RV sites is extraordinary. Lakeville sits an 80-mile drive northeast of Bangor into genuinely undeveloped northern Maine forest — this is remote country, with the Grand Lake chain, moose, and dark skies, and the ATV and snowmobile networks running for hundreds of miles. Summer and the fall foliage window drive demand, with snowmobile season following. Reserve well ahead.

Bar Harbor, ME

Bar Harbor Campground

192 RV Sites, 111 Tent Sites

Bar Harbor Campground in Maine offers 192 full-hookup RV sites and 111 tent sites on a scenic bluff overlooking the Atlantic, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet behind a gated entrance. Full-hookup back-in and pull-through categories at both amperages join a lake, beach, sports courts, and bar on Mount Desert Island. One hundred ninety-two sites span full hookup 30-amp back-in, full hookup 30-amp pull-through, full hookup 30/50-amp back-in, and full hookup 30/50-amp pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Sixty feet is generous for coastal Maine, where most properties cap well below that. One hundred eleven tent sites and cabins make the tent inventory exceptional — more tent sites than most campgrounds have sites of any kind. A laundry, dump station, and a bar handle the practical side. A lake, beach, sports courts, basketball, shuffleboard, horseshoes, an arcade, playground, and picnicking fill the grounds. Pets are welcome. The bluff position over the Atlantic is the property's defining feature, and the location is hard to improve on. Acadia National Park's granite summits, the carriage road network that Rockefeller philanthropy preserved, Cadillac Mountain, and Bar Harbor's working waterfront are all within a short drive — one of the most complete and most visited natural landscapes in the northeastern United States. Summer and fall foliage drive intense demand on Mount Desert Island, and Acadia fills. Reserve as far ahead as you can for July through mid-October.

Mount Desert, ME

Quarry Ledge Campground

28 RV Sites, 4 Cabins, 24 Tent Sites

Quarry Ledge Campground in Mount Desert, ME, offers 28 RV sites, 4 cabins, and 24 tent sites, with 20 and 30-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in three categories — 30-amp back-in, 20/30-amp back-in, and 20-amp rustic — each carrying water and electric with a fire pit. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. Note the electrical: service tops out at 30-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management. A bathhouse with showers, firewood, portable toilets in the rustic area, and cabins cover the rest. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, boat docks, boat rentals, walking trails, and horseshoes support swimming, boating, paddling, paddle boarding, paddle boats, fishing, hiking, biking, and corn hole. Quarry Ledge sits on Somes Sound on Mount Desert Island — widely described as the only true fjord on the eastern seaboard, a glacially carved inlet that splits the island — with Acadia National Park all around it. Rates for sites, cabins, and tent spots are on the booking page. Acadia's summer season books out months ahead.
