Don’t recomend for tenting. Facilities are well maintained but camping sites are very tight and not private whatsoever. When you’re at your campfire you’re starting at your neighbor at theirs 15 ft away. Bring soap for the restroom as none is provided.

It's a great field. No firepits, tables, or bathrooms. Literally just a grass lot. It worked for what I was there for which was parking for the Maine Coast Half Marathon but for camping, there's nothing to be had. And it's hard to find because it's actually back in the mobile home park to the south. Maps navigates you to the north side of the mobile home park. It was very confusing.

I'm a seasonal at Beach Acres and it is the best park on the Seacoast. Reasonably priced compared to most of the parks and less than a mile to the water. Owners are super nice.

The experience itself was good. Facilities were clean. Staff was friendly. Overall, we had a great experience. Only issue for us was the amount of skunks that walked around at night. They were not afraid of people and very food driven. One came right up to my chair and stole a marshmallow. Another night, it came right into my tente because the kids had left food goldfish crackers there. They were not afraid of humans. Having said that, we only smelled skunk 2x in the five nights we were there. But definitely a problem that needs to be dealt with.
