Experience the charm of our modest farm nestled on an 88-acre forest, complete with a babbling brook and lake access. Located just 45 minutes from Acadia National Park, and in close proximity to less-frequented public trail networks (such as the Great Pond Mountain Conservation Trust, right next to our property), our site offers a serene retreat far away from everything and everyone! Indulge in activities like fishing (ensure you have the proper licenses, as Fish and Game Wardens monitor the area), kayaking/canoeing, and swimming from our private lake dock. Although our sites are off-grid without running water, we provide access to composting toilets and potable water. Embrace the quintessential Maine vibes at our campsite, situated along Gott Brook, offering convenient access to the lake via the main campsite road.Enjoy peace and serenity on our 88 acre forested property. A short 3-5 minute hike in from the main road, this campsite is situated on the side of a natural waterfall along Gott Brook. The site is situated underneath mature hemlock trees that are sure to keep you nice and cool on even the hottest summer days. The site includes a composting toilet and a solar shower for all your hygiene needs. A short walk down the main camp road will take you to the Branch Lake Trail, where you can swim and rent kayaks/canoes. Please keep the fire in the existing fire pit and use only the wood provided by us (imported wood can contain invasive pests). We are located 5 minutes away from Hothole Valley (Great Wilderness Area), 15 minutes from downtown Ellsworth, and 45 minutes away from Acadia National Park.

Peaceful Glamping, Private Stream

Super peaceful listening to the stream just next door to our secluded tent site. My first trial of glamping (vs prior mostly backpacking camping) and the mattress was quite comfy and all of the sleeping and dining tent set ups were quite pleasant. The lake felt a little further away than expected but was beautiful when I walked to it.

Beautiful campsite with a cozy tent and plenty of room to spread out. The cook tent by the brook was the perfect place to sit and enjoy our coffee and breakfast in the mornings. Our dogs loved playing in the brook and listening to all the sounds in the woods. We loved being able to get down to the lake and rent a canoe. Such a wonderful place to call home while exploring the area. We hope to be back in the future!

Secluded River Camp

This was a great site we lucked upon! Tabatha was an awesome host and allowed us to check in late as we made our way to Acadia. First off, I recommend arriving to the site early as it’s a short hike in from where you park your car and it’s just easier seeing where you’re stepping as it’s a little rocky in parts. The tent was spacious and the bed was comfortable. We had our dogs with us and they felt right at home. We woke up to find one of the most unique site we’ve ever stayed at. A small stream runs through the camp creating a serene space you’ll never want to leave. Tabatha has a camp kitchen set up not far from the tent with a grill and table to hangout at along the water. There’s also a guest tent if you need more space at night for more than two guests. Had we known we had stumbled on such a secluded, cool spot we would have planned to stay longer. But we do know next time we come to Acadia we’ll be staying here again!

Great camp.

The directions leading up to the camp were some of the best I've ever received with pictures and details. The camp itself is set pretty far out into the woods. Camp is a durable tent with a bed a pull out cot. The arrangement is comfortable, though the sheets were a little mildewy. There's a deck with a small table/chairs. The firepit is right along a stream which is ideal 👌. Plenty of firewood. I was able to take the shower bag away from the camp and show in the woods. Really great. We would do this one over again.
