450 feet of cove frontage next to Cobscook Bay State Park. Paved boat launch next door, with a dock, thick stand of trees along the road, and a clearing inside. People marvel at the property and relax. Hand carry launch very close to the campsites.

ALS lands

Nice site. Water view and access. Free firewood and potable water. The host was unobtrusive but available. Would stay here again. Highly recommend if you want a quiet minimalist experience.

The Shady Overlook

Overall the campsite had a great view of the water, very pretty landscape that surrounded and Al was very friendly. He provided firewood and even camping supplies for anyone to use.

Site 1 - Elmer's Cove - Park to th

Perfect spot for my quick overnight. Al gave great directions, and was very kind to offer me a different site with a screened lean-to due to the weather. Clean and odorless outhouse was a nice surprise!

My plans changed

All of my encounters with Al were great. My plans changed at the last minute so I never got to see his wonder site.

Site 3 - Elmer's Cove

Can’t beat it!

The space was quintessential coastal Maine. Al was so friendly and incredibly accommodating. The property is absolutely stunning with added amenities like a privy, picnic tables and firewood… truly some serious steps up from roughing it camping. I was shocked at the rate for the trade off. We will absolutely come back to camp in the future, we loved our time.
