Near Acadia National Park
Within a 30-minute drive from the Thompson Island Information Center.
I live in a small cut de sac on the West Side of Mount Desert Island, in the heart of Acadia National Park. My home is very close to hiking trails, swimming, boating, picnicking and the lower key towns of Southwest Harbor, Bass Harbor, and Tremont. Only a 15 minute drive to Bar Harbor. Enjoy a vacation on an amazing island with amazing restaurants, amazing outdoor recreation....and create memories. I only won one car, so the other parking space is always available. Driveway is 24 feet long.This is a parking space in front of a home in a small rural neighborhood, 15 minute drive to Bar Harbor and plenty of access to Acadia National Park.

Great off-season option
Christie’s spot is super convenient for everything Acadia NP has to offer. All sights were within 15 minutes drive. Christie is a friendly host with lots of spot-on recommendations. Her spot is on a quiet cul-de-sac with a handful of houses. Driveway is flat, easy to park our self-contained van. Use of bathroom, shower and WiFi are available for small additional fees. We had a great time exploring: seawall at sunrise, carriage roads by bike, thunderhole. Cadillac Mt., and quiet off-season Bar Harbor. Highly recommend “Milkweed & Catnip”!

Christie’s Hipcamp is in the center of Mt Desert island, ideal for accessing great trails and outdoor adventures without much driving. She’s a most kind host, willing to share what she knows about the many special places within Acadia National Park. I’ll be back.

Perfect location
This was a fantastic spot to stay. The location is awesome. She provided us with such good ideas to see the most amount of the park in the 1 day we have.

Great place!
Christie’s place was great - within a 20 minute drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia! Since she’s worked with the national parks most of her career, she gave us such great recommendations!! She made us feel very welcomed, it was perfect for a cheap place to stay while enjoying the park :)

Just Book It!!!
Not only was Christie an amazing hostess, but she answered all my questions about where to go and what to see in Acadia NP. She's a wealth of information! Her Hipcamp is level, quiet, and provides easy access to the park while away from the crowd. For a small fee I could do laundry and take a hot shower! This is a terrific spot for a Class B camper van. I would highly recommend Milkweed & Catnip!
