This spot has been in the family since 1935. Apple trees and wildlife abound year round. Ellie's RV Spot is a single RV site designed for use by all Class A thru C motorized or towable style recreational vehicles including conversion vans or off grid vehicles. 50 or 30 amp electric, water, sewer and wifi are provided. Established in 2019. A sister cabin shares the one acre site and is separated by a 16 foot long 9 foot high fence. Well Behaved dogs/pets are allowed on the site for $7 per pet per night. If you would like to bring a pet, please add pet fee which is listed as an extra during the booking process. All pets on site must be leashed at all times, no exceptions. Message us if you have any questions regarding bringing your dog on vacation. Should you choose to book this site and use a vehicle that doesn't have a shower and toilet on board, you will not have access to a bathroom on site.You must provide your own porta potty. The RV's pictured belong to past guests and are not available for rent. Ellie's is located to allow easy access to both the Mount Desert Island section of Acadia and the Schoodic Peninsula section. All rigs including off grid and pop-ups, please set up on GRAVEL PAD only. Stay off grass area to prevent damage to the private septic system. **Tenting is not an option on this site, sorry.** Campfires are allowed on this site when winds are under 10 mph. Check local weather first. We continue to provide free, locally grown, organic firewood in order to combat inflation and help you stretch your vacation dollar. While Ellie's doesn't have direct water access, there are many shoreline points of access close by. Beaches and water access are everywhere. Wide open space does exist. Come explore the Maine coast. Commuter traffic can be seen and heard from Ellie's RV spot. State route 204 funnels park visitors to Acadia. In 2023 over 3.5 million people visited the Acadia area. 2023 has been jammed with visitors, more than ever before, be patient. 2024 update: You can purchase your park pass online and print it before you arrive. Reservations for Cadillac Mtn are now required due to overcrowding. We have one security camera located on the main fence. This is for your protection as well as ours.

Relaxing stay
Great Basecamp location to see Acadia National Park, Bangor, fishing villages and other points of interest. Kevin and Julie were great hosts, helped us get in and settled and made sure we hade everything we needed. Sat outside at night by the fire pit and star gazed.

Fantastic spot located near Acadia National Park. 15-30 minutes to Bar Harbor, Acadia, or anywhere else in the area. Has full hookups and great wifi. Everything worked really well and we were super happy to stay here. Would gladly come back. The owners were very helpful. Highly recommend!

We had a great stay at Ellie's RV spot! Julie and Kevin were gracious hosts who have lived in the area a long time. They had great recommendations and were very helpful. The spot itself had everything we needed and we enjoyed the privacy. We have a 17' travel trailer and had no problem backing in. It is located off a bend in the road, but the noise is minimal and we didn't have any issues pulling out each day. The property is beautiful and overlooks a stunning meadow with birch trees and goldenrod. There is plenty of privacy between the camp site and the Airbnb cabin. We liked being away from the crowds of Mt. Desert with just a short and easy drive to the island, plus the connivence of being near Ellsworth for Walmart, Home Depot, etc! Can't wait to find our way back here!

Great place to call home
This is a nice spot. 1 RV and 1 Cabin only. Easy to find. Hosts were very welcoming and provided firewood. It can be a little noisy with the street traffic BUT its a short 30 min drive to Acadia National Park. I preferred the grocery story out of the main city. Take a left out of the site and a left at the light. It will be about 5 mins down on the left. The Park... Its super crowded, do not expect to just drive to one of the sites and park. You will NOT find parking. Instead park at the main entrance and take the free shuttle. I sharked a parking lot for 45 mins and still could not get a spot. Go to BASS Harbor. after you leave the lighthouse, take the right at the stop sign and hike the Ships Harbor Trail on the right. I literally met Jesus. I was so blown away by the beauty I cried. Best meal.. I cant say, the lobster was delious everywhere. But the people were super friendly in Ellisworth. I had some trouble packing up and the hosts were there to lend a hand and calm me, recommended a great RV maintenance shop in Bangor. Harveys. Hopefully you do not have to leave a site and head to a RV Repair place but if you do Harveys is the place. All in All - great place to call home while visiting the National Park.

Overall the site was nice and convenient to Acadia National Park and things to do and places to eat. Unfortunately it is located on a very busy road. Cars were going very fast and it was difficult and dangerous to get out of.

The location is great, off the beaten path but close to shopping, restaurants and Acadia. Everything was as described. The site had everything needed and was well maintained and quiet. We will definitely recommend Ellie's RV spot. We may also come back and try out the Airbnb that is on the site as well.
