This Fairy Tale Campground In Maine Is Like Something From A Dream

While we have an abundance of magnificent campgrounds in Maine, there are some that stand out as especially idyllic and may even make you feel like you’ve entered a dreamlike fairyland. You’ll get that feeling when you see the beauty of Mount Desert Campground in Maine. What a lovely way to spend a summer weekend!

Mount Desert Campground is located on Mount Desert Island just west of Acadia National Park and is every bit as beautiful as the park. It is open seasonally between Memorial Day and Columbus Day.

Do you want to camp in the forest or on the waterfront? How about both at once? Wooden platforms ensure level footing for your tent so that you can focus on enjoying your camping experience and the sheer beauty of this place.

You may even find a mushroom faerie ring which will add to the mystique and wonder of this lovely campground.

There’s a lovely beach where you can look out over Somes Sound and enjoy the soothing sound of the water gently lapping against the shore and have some fun fishing and swimming. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit as well as electric and water hookups.

Kayak and canoe rentals are available so you can paddle around the sound and take in the lush views of the forest and the water. Afterward, head to the restrooms for a hot shower.

Hiking around the area will have you surrounded by verdant, thick forests with towering trees, mossy rocks, and breathtaking natural grandeur. You may wonder if this really is a fairyland.

Enjoy a gorgeous sunset and then roast marshmallows, sing campfire songs, and enjoy a brilliant, star-filled night sky before you enter into a comfortable, restful slumber. Wake up, cook breakfast over the fire, and get ready for another day in this spectacular campground. Make a reservation today.
