MJ is a Star Host
Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.
Our sites have plenty of trees, no light pollution, access to ATV and hiking trails. Each site has a fire ring, trash can, picnic table and are large. Primitve sites have a fire ring only. Cross the seasonal pond tobe away from it all. But we are still 45 minutes away from Bangor and 30 from Dover Foxcroft. Drive to Belfast to the coast for the day(1 hour and 10) or enjoy nature at our off-grid property.

Site 1 - Back 40 Primitive
Are long stay
The host was amazing. Always made sure things were good. The outdoor environment was a good experience for kids and animals to be sorta them selves. A good learning experience for any age with survival and adventure. Convenient store was maybe 10 minutes down the road and actual stores are about 20-30 minutes. The neighbors also were amazingly friendly and fun.

Site 2 - Off grid camping site
The site had the exact amenities/vibe I was looking for for a laid back weekend of sitting by the fire and reading; Fireplace/Grill, Picnic table, covered trash can, and outhouse. And it was only 40 mins away from home! I loved the tree cover (I didn’t have to set up the awning I brought) and the site was well maintained. If you want more privacy I’d recommend one of the other sites. Site 2 is right on an ATV/UTV trail, which didn’t bother me, but I saw/heard a number of people going by during my stay. (Probably one an hour) Couldn’t stay the second night because my dog was having a hard time relaxing away from home. I’m an early riser, so instead of leaving at sunrise, I decided to leave at sunset. I’ll definitely be back (sans dog)

Site 1 - Back 40 Primitive
What a great little spot. We reserved the back 40 campsite but it was too muddy so we were upgraded to one of the regular sites with a fire ring and an outhouse with plenty of space for parking and a large flat grassy spot for a couple tents. The host met us and was super friendly and accommodating. this is a great location for people on side by sides as well. The only thing to note is The front campsites are on a dirt road that is a tad busy this Memorial Day weekend, if you are looking for absolute privacy I’d suggest the back 40 campsite. Everyone who drove by was respectful and friendly and not in anyway disturbing us, just something we observed.

Make sure you come in from Jones road. Otherwise you're coming in through an ATV trail. I was put in site number 2. Very well kept Nice fire ring picnic table and a trash can. Pit privy off to the trail going in.

Night time was so very quiet! MJ and John were attentive hosts who helped us with a very late arrival. We thoroughly enjoyed the night there.
