Best all-around: Finalist

Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024.

A beautiful island campground thickly forested with spruce, fir, and birch, Four Acre Woods was created over 60 years ago on Sunshine Island, Maine. Under the name Sunshine Campground, it hosted people from all over the world and delivered the spirit and essence of this ancient, abundant land that so many ancestors had roamed and celebrated before. It was open to the public through to the 90s, but then sat alone for 15 years, waiting for someone to revive it and bring it back to the world. Then one day, Caleb and Wolf met on a bus, heading south from Down East Maine, where they instantly connected and joined forces. They worked together redressing a home in Stonington for visitors to experience and became brothers while doing so. Eventually, the presence and opportunity of the campground caught their attention and after working out the technicalities, they worked together to bring this beautiful land and campground back to the people under its new life and name, Four Acre Woods. After opening on July 1st 2020, the land is finally back to sharing all of her beauty and spirit with the people. So, Welcome Home. Sincerely, - Four Acre Woods Caretakers

Osprey Perch (20amp Hookup)

Very nice and cozy small campground. Very quiet and super clean well maintained camping. Very convenient for tents or small vehicles setups. No big rigs. We were just ok with our short wheel base Sprinter. Many little thoughtful details; soap, conditioner showers, laundry, sauna, kayaks, wood, games. Highly recommended for a good rest.

Octopus Coral (Tent/Primitive)

We had a great night staying at four acres. Comfortable site with hot showers, WiFi, and electricity in the community cabin. This part of deer isle is also beautiful to explore. Would come back again!

Bear Cave (RV 30amp)

Beautiful campground, mostly shaded. Was able to fit 24 ft van in Bear Cave space. 30 amp power, clean restroom, shower, Wi-Fi at common cabin, even laundry. We were able to walk from camp to a place where labs could swim. Shore acres hike , Sand beach, and Stonington were 15-20 minute drives from camp.
