IT's like camping in a DOG kennel. friends of ours stayed in one of the cabins the mini split did'nt work NO HEAT and when they complained the office said it's been broken for a while and at night they herd chewing noise on the floor from underneath the cabin RATS U mite want to think twice about staying here.But it doe's have the ocean view

everything was great. the cabin was clean and just what was advertised. this was no big deal, but just so you know, we did not have any coffee cups in our cabin to enjoy the coffee pods and maker that was supplied.

Great place with amazing campsite on the bay. As always great amenities at KOA. first time we have been back to Bar harbor since the 90's definitely will be back soon

Booked a back in ocean's edge and got a parallel park to ocean edge. I have a large hatch and windows in the back that I thought this site would be perfect for. The site was so small we couldn't have a fire safely. When paying that much for a site that isn't full hookups I expected better. We enjoyed the proximity to the ocean but felt a little ripped off.

Nice park. Not all sites are “full hook-up” so will make sure we pay better attention to that.

Very busy KOA but well kept. We added on another night stay and they were very accommodating. Only thing we couldn't figure out was the office hours. Getting up early to hike and returning in the evening to our campsite. We missed the Open hours of the office. 9-4? even received a text telling us they were closing at 5pm. to rush there and find them already closed. Overall, very nice.

We stayed 6 nights in a fifth wheel and enjoyed every minute! The sunsets and stargazing are divine. The campground is convenient to Acadia National Park, and an easy drive into Bar Harbor. We hiked, biked, and ate our weight in delicious lobster!

We �� loved our stay in this precious jewel!

Campground over priced for what you get

I've been coming at least 3 years, the last two with a bigger group, and the consensus this year seemed to be that it was sliding downhill. We missed the weekly band/fundraiser in the community area, the store seemed to close super early, & the water in the tent area tasted distinctively bad, so we were always looking for other water.

It was for two nights in the fall. Liked my site and enjoyed eating the lobster roll at the shack

Very clean, comfortable bed, great location to local activities. Wish there had been water pressure, it was difficult to get clean in the shower, at times it was literally a dribble.

We stayed in the deluxe cabin for 4 w/ bathroom, linens included. The cabin was perfect for 2 people, it would have been very cramped for 4. Loved the kitchen set up but wished there had been at least a small set of reusable camping utensils (fork, knife, bowl, cup) included. Location was absolutely perfect for visiting Acadia every day, and watching the sunset on the water was wonderful.

Love this campground. We always stay here when in Bar Harbor. From the amenities to the location to the awesome staff, we wouldn’t think of staying anywhere else.

Stayed in a lodge. We were very satisfied with the accommodations.

Great spot, clean and the staff was super helpful. Arrived late on Friday and was escorted us to our site.

Very lucky with weather this year! Love having access to conveniences like showers and laundry, and delivery of ice and firewood! Mornings sitting at the shore and evenings watching the sunset are fabulous. Staff is friendly and helpful.

This review is specific to my stay in the camping cabin. I understand that we are in the woods, but the cabin was filled with spiders from the moment we settled in. We would find nursery spiders or daddy long legs crawl out from the bed or hanging off our coats. We ended up sleeping in our car both nights before moving to a tent. The coffee machine was also filthy and needed a cleaning.

Over priced for what you get. The restrooms are old and outdated along with lack of cleaning.

Very friendly and very clean

Site was fairly level. Bathrooms need an update. Laundry room OK. Did not use the showers. The kiddie train driving through the park and employees on golf carts need to slow down.

Read the details. They squeezed 15 cabins into the space of a postage stamp tucked away from everything and limited facilities. Cabin was clean the only plus.

Very nice cabin, everything was clean, the campground was well kept and quiet, friendly people, they had treats for my dog , could use a little more water pressure lol

Everything was great, except for the campground’s internal communications. We were delayed a couple times because the people at reception didn’t know if particular sites were immediately available or not. We lost more time than we should have due to this. Fantastic rv park, otherwise.

Had an excellent stay in the deluxe cabin. Main office had great Maine gifts. Location was perfect. Would definitely come back

Great location. Beautiful view. A bit crowded.

We had a wonderful time. Cabin was clean, efficient, spacious, and had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay with our three dogs.

Nice campground and the staff were great. Did not like how close togeather most of the sites were. Because of that I will not return.

Nice place clean and staff is very accommodating

Location location, location. Only problem this year was that their honey wagon (cart that pumps the tanks from the campers that are closer to the water but don’t have a sanitary connection) stopped working half way through our stay causing us great concern. But our tanks lasted until the end of our stay.

We stayed for two nights in Sept 2025, after Labor Day. We could easily see water and sunset from our site. Not on the water, but just behind those spots. My suggestion to anybody would be to get your sites early; we booked ours 6 months ahead of time; other sites are packed in pretty tight. It is a nice and friendly campground with lots to do and enjoy whether you’re seniors or families.

I stayed 6 days in a cabin with my dogs. The cabin and site were perfect and the camp staff very helpful. Overall very positive. Only negatives were the golf carts and kid train were flying around super fast and it was challenging walking my dogs with their high speed. I would have to jump off the road. The dog area was awesome and very well stocked with bags, unfortunately not all used the bags.

on the beach great sun sets over the water great lobster at the Red Airstream nice fellow guests who could ask for more?

Clean and quiet. This campground is a stop on the free shuttle bus route into Bar Harbor. The bus is a convenient way to not have to find parking in busy Bar Harbor.

This was a very disappointing KOA. Highly over priced for dirty bathrooms and muddy grassy unlevel sites that were very tight and close together. There was nothing premium about our premium site.

Stay was very good. I wish we were given a bit more info about what to bring… dishes, silverware, mugs, microwave safe cooking containers. I wish there were more shelves to keep supplies on.

Had the best campsite right on the water, though breezy, what an absolute beautiful view.

Over priced and over crowded

The heart of the campground sites were much too small for our 30 foot travel trailer. It was extremely difficult to get in and out of our site. The car next to us was about 1 foot away from our slide. Those sites need a limit to RV and truck size.

Very convenient and close for visiting Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. We go there every year with a very large group of friends. They all had the same feedback: the staff is very welcoming , very easy/simple to checkin. Wonderful and clean facilities. It is the best of the best, thanks to Michael the manager and his staff, they always make our stay magic, and very memorable. We love it, and we will be back soon !!

This campground is awesome! Acadia was incredible, Bar Harbor was amazing, and this place puts you right in the middle of all the action. You're just minutes from Acadia National Park and minutes from town, which makes it super convenient for exploring everything in the area. The service and people here are top notch—friendly, helpful, and welcoming from start to finish. We had a great stay and will definitely be returning. I would 100% recommend this campground to anyone visiting Acadia or Bar Harbor
