It was not possible to stake into the ground on the tent site (#2). Large gravel or cement are not ideal for tent camping.

Sorry you were unsatisifed with your site. If you would have let us know we could have tried to switch you. This site does have a 16x16 foot platform for your tent that you could have used the eye hooks on side to stake your tent. Next time when unhappy seek help from staff.This could have helped

Super friendly staff, clean bath house, great tent site. If we ever come back to Acadia National Park, we will be staying here again

The site was beautiful and well maintained! Loved the bounce pad as well as the blueberry ice cream.

Paid for a “ deluxe” site. It was not worthy of that designation. No privacy. second rate fire dish. Is very short. Was a tent site because it was small and just changed to calling it an rv site.

Sorry you didnt enjoy your site but you did select a deluxe tent site when you made your online reservation. We would suggest calling the campground the next time to get the site that you are looking for. Happy camping!

I love the patio and patio furniture on the site....that is amazing! Plants near hook up made it look very nice. Pool was exceptionally clean!! My only complaint is nothing anyone can fix....our site #2 was separated from the road by a fence...so during the day the noise was loud at times, but again, not something that can be fixed. The owners are amazing!!!

Friendly and we had a great vacation, only two point to warn about. Only two of their 3 tent camping sites are as advertised, the last one is SMALL. They put our family of 4 on this site for 5 day stay while we watched others come and go on the bigger pads. 1 bathhouse on property (2 toilets for all women in the campground) with tiny showers that are NOT family/kid friendly.

Our web site CLEARLY states that this site is small but YOU selected this site online. For less than $5 you could have selected the large sites but elected not to. You had a large tent and screenhouse. Our bath house is clean and up to state codes and is not advertised as a family style bath house

My tent site was absolutely perfect with a large ent area, a platform for the picnic table and a covered area for grilling. Marlene was an incredible host doing everything possible to make sure my stay was as perfect as it could possibly be. I have already recommended this campground to friends heading to Maine and I will definitely go back!

Marlene made me feel welcome from the time I made the reservation. And then when I arrived she and her staff literally treated me like family. I highly recommend Bucksport/Fort Knox KOA.

Stay was great. Hosts were great. The only thing I didn’t like is. I was tent camping. I had to put my tent in a crushed gravel area. It all stuck to my tent. Not something I wanted to deal with leaving at 5:30a.m.

It was great to meet you Jimmy and glad you enjoyed your time here. We are sorry you had an issue with the dirt. We have many options here at Bucksport. Next time you roll thru here let us know and we can put you on our Deluxe tent platform! Happy camping!!!

My boyfriend and I camped here for a two night stay and couldn’t have asked for a better time. Darlene and David were excellent hosts along with the other staff members. The campground was clean and welcoming, everything we could have asked for. Staff members went above and beyond to make our first camping trip memorable. I definitely recommend this location, and we will be back!

Bucksport/Fort Knox was super accommodating to all our needs. Extremely lovely owners who recommended places to go and suggested ways to prepare for our trip to Acadia which less than an hour drive. Bathroom was warm and super clean. Called ahead and had firewood waiting for us at our campsite. Fire pit has a very manageable grate that could fold over. Beautiful view of the stars! Wonderful time!

Outstanding Fall experience! David and Marlene were fantastic. So friendly and fun and went out of their way to make it special for us! We had a great site and it was right at the tail end of their season! The leaves are beautiful and it's just a fun place to be!

Campgrounds were great. Clean well kept. Actually gave us a welcoming gift when we checked in which is unheard of. Gentleman that parked us extremely helpful. They should have a 10but only given 1-5 to choose from.

One of the best KOA's I have been to. Beautiful campground, friendly hosts, incredibly well maintained. We stayed in the glamping tent and it was an awesome experience. Very nice, comfortable, and fun; the experience of tent camping with none of the challenges. Comfortable beds, private bathroom, refrigerator, propane grill, etc. The campground is in a great location relative to bar harbor and Acadia National park as well as other things to do in the area. I would highly recommend this KOA for anyone wanting to go camping in Maine. Thanks David and Marlene!!
