Bucksport/Fort Knox KOA

Guido Stein

We visit Acadia every year in the early spring and really enjoy staying at the KOA cabins. They treat their guests (both human and dogs) wonderfully. The cabins very in view and amenities. We love staying in the ones that overlook the water, but you need to reserve those months in advance because they are very popular. That said, it's worth the wait to sit by the fire as the sun disappears behind the tree line.

Beautiful ocean view sites. We went off season and it was quiet but they put us next to another camper and then someone else next to us, so 3 in a row when the whole strip was empty. Ground bees at the dog park with lots of poop and the door got stuck. A little over priced in our opinion.

Decided to stay at Oceanside because they open earlier than other campgrounds, in Bar Harbor. $104. to camp for a night. First site is a mud hole that we almost get stuck in, second site, can't use our awnings, because we can't tie them down. There is goose poop absolutely everywhere. I know it can't be helped, but rake it off the sites. The one saving grace is, I'm going to get a hot shower. Nope. No heat in the bathroom, no hot water. The guy says we're going to fix that. Great, I'm half wet, in a freezing bathroom. I don't have time to wait for your maintenance that should have been done before you charged $104. to camp for a night.

This was my first KOA experience, and I was very happy. I called at about 4pm looking for a site for the night. They accommodated me quite well. My site was what they called a hybrid site, it could work for rent or a very small camper, like a pop up, or a tear drop, or a van. My site had this little kitchen area that had a nice roof with an overhang on it. That was awesome. (If someone from the campground is reading this, make more of those!!!!) It was raining, and that gave me a place to sit and not get wet. I was very happy. The bathrooms were clean, and conveniently located. The hot shower was nice, and it was free. I would definitely recommend this one to a friend.

We had a wonderful stay at the Bar Harbor KOA Campground. The location is unbeatable and it is well-maintained, and the staff were friendly and accommodating from the moment we arrived. The campground offers plenty of activities for all ages. They also have nice bathrooms and a very well-stocked camp store. The sites are nice and offer a great mix of options, from tent camping to RV hookups and even cabins. We stayed in one of the waterfront view sites, but even if you are not they have a seated viewing area on the water which is a great spot for sunsets. It’s a close drive to Acadia National Park and downtown Bar Harbor, which made exploring the area super easy. Most of my pics have family and I don’t really like to post those but this was a misty morning view but shows view. Overall, the Bar Harbor KOA exceeded our expectations! it’s tied as one of the best campgrounds we’ve ever been to, right alongside the one in the Redwoods in Crescent City, CA. Whether you’re looking for a quiet retreat or a fun family getaway with lots to do, this campground is a perfect choice. We’ll definitely be back!

We camped here September of 2020 (site 17a) for their Halloween weekend and we had an absolute blast. They had trick or treating and a dance party. The owners were extremely accommodating and friendly. My brother and his family visited us that day and got to enjoy the fun too. We’re booked to come back for Halloween weekend 2022 and can’t wait!!

We are here for our first time with a new to us camper. From the welcome at the office to the Easter egg hunt and train ride, this is a great place to stay with family and friends. The pool is nice and bath house clean. You can tell the owners run a place they are proud of. We will be back!

We are NOT campers. But, we needed a place to stay near Castine, and this was available and affordable. We rented a deluxe cabin, and boy are we glad we did. The cabin smelled like it was BRAND NEW. Absolutely clean and the bed was REALLY comfy. We really wish we'd stayed here more than one night so we could make use of the front porch, grill and patio. Excellent experience!

Everything about this campground is fabulous! We stayed in the new treehouse - absolutely delightful. Our kids loved it, and they are true twin beds, not narrow bunks like many KOA cabins. Staff is readily available, so welcoming. And don't miss the weekend donuts - YUM! Hope we can make it back someday!
