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. This area of coastal Maine is a stop on your journey. #Next to Cobscook Bay State Park!# #Voted - 2021 Top 10 Best Campsites in Maine# 4 Sites - 2 for Tents and 2 for RVs Good clearance on driveway - no 4WD needed. Tent/sm. veh. sites (tent area 9x14): 1 and 5 best for tents; 3 and 7 for RVs. All sites generally levelled w/fire pits. (firewood included) Book a specific site, or ask me which. Open interior land, privacy from road, - clothing-optional inquiries welcomed. Dark nights for star gazing, 20-foot tidal range - strong currents, be careful kayaking and boating, mid-tide and higher it's good swimming here, also a small spring fed pond to cool off in. Carry in here, or launch for free next door. Good cell signal, (Verizon, AT & T) tower 1.2 miles away. Smart phone hot-spot works for me. GPS: 285 South Edmunds Road, Dennysville, ME.

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.

Site 5 - Elmer's Cove
Quiet with amenities
I loved camping in my van on Al’s land …. The view of the bay was amazing. Firewood, camp showers, jugs of water & an outhouse were welcomed additions :) There were two other sites occupied during my 2 night stay - everyone was quiet and respectful of our spaces. A great experience! Be sure to follow the path of boulders down to the bay during high tide :)

Site 5 - Elmer's Cove
We really enjoyed our stay at this campground. It was small and quiet and our site (#5) had a great view of the water! The small shed in the site was convenient as well. We would definitely stay here again if we’re ever in the area!
