This campground has some great view sites of the ocean, however that's all. The location is way out on a point 11mi from any major highway, so going out to dinner is at least a 25mi round trip into Bath. The campground dirt roads are terrible, filled with pothole and rocks in the dirt. They need to invest in gravel topping for their roads, but it appears no money has been spent to keep the campground in good shape. We'll never return here. If you're passionate about clamming this is might be a good place to camp, but we're not into that.

I almost don't want to leave a review because I'd like to keep this place secret. Such a fabulous location and the sites are all remarkably beautiful. Loved the owners. Very friendly and accomodating. But the real treasure was the clam digging. My wife has always wanted to do this and it was whole family fun. For a forty dollar permit we dug over ten bounds of clams some almost as big as my hand! And they were all incredibly sweet and delicious. Thank you for this truly wonderful campground.

This was our second time staying at Sagadahoc Bay Campground, and once again, the views were absolutely amazing! This visit was extra special since we had a waterfront site, and waking up to that ocean view was incredible. Check-in was smooth and easy, and the woman who greeted us was so friendly and welcoming. The bathhouses are about what you’d expect for a traditional campground—nothing fancy, a little older, but functional. The only real downside was the mosquitoes. They were overwhelming to the point that it really impacted our experience. We noticed some standing water at the site next to ours, which may have contributed. We came prepared with bug spray, but honestly, we would have needed more bug nets or screen shelters to make it comfortable. In the end, the bugs were so bad that we decided to leave a night early. Overall, the location and views are unbeatable, and we’ve enjoyed this campground before. If you plan to stay, definitely bring plenty of bug protection—more than you think you’ll need—and consider checking what the bug conditions are like for the time of year you’re visiting.

What a relaxing vacation spot! Beautiful views, and convenient access to the bay. The friendly staff made the check in process stress free. If you’re looking for a low key campground without all the hustle and bustle this is the place for you. We enjoyed leaving our phones behind and exploring the flats at low tide and even tried our hand at clamming, what fun! The other campers who return year after year were super friendly. Can’t wait to go back!

If you're a no-frills tent camper that loves being in nature, this is a hidden gem. The tent sites are spacious and set far enough back from each other that you get privacy. The bathrooms and shower were suitable. The owner is lovely and has heaps of information for visitors. There are also calm rakes for rent. There's a small beach with some rocks on site that are great for fishing. I'll be back again next year.

Such a lovely place. Right on a cove with low and high tide. A gorgeous tide beach to walk forever, beware of the fog. The fog bank was beautiful. Sites were level and tight but plenty of privacy. All campers were very friendly. The woman that checked us in was very friendly. They sold ice, wood and clam digging licences. Great place. Dog friendly, lots for doggies to do.

We stayed for the second time here and we had an absolute blast. This time we had an ocean view site and it was incredibly beautiful to wake up to the sunrise over the water. We love it here. I wish I could live here to be honest with you. The ocean / “beach” is one of the most amazing things you can see. The owners are such kind people and we love chatting with them. The land is such a quiet and peaceful place. We will definitely be back!!!!

Went camping through the weekend, prices were affordable, the campgrounds and woods were clean. The owner was very kind and took the time to explain the campground, the beach, and everything we could do around. The sites were large enough to fit 2 cars and still 3 tents with the picnic table and an Easy-Up. The only complaint I had over the stay was the bathhouses not having any ventilation, it made them hot, sticky, and a little smelly. But its camping, so I expected that. The internet was surprisingly good in the main areas of camp, no service in the campgrounds of course, but its camping, not an Air B&B or hotel. So again, didn't expect wifi at all, and the fact it had some was a pleasant surprise. Kayak rental was also available and was cheap (20 Kayak and 30 Tandem)! Overall the experience was great, drove 3 hours from NH and was not disappointed. Very clean, quiet, and a friendly environment. Much love 🫶

Nice region, owners are nice and all. Campsites are ok, some are smaller than others. Little beach and water front was nice. The very big down point is the bath houses (shower, bathroom). They have not been cleaned throughout our stay and they most likely had not been cleaned for a while. Hand paper distributors did not work, mold on the shower curtains and in the showers themselves. Would not be a repeat for us.

Our third year here, but first time in the cabin; it was fantastic! Such a magical spot on the ocean. We explored the forts in nearby Phippsburg during the foggy morning and walked forever and found crabs on the mudflats when the fog lifted. The cabin was perfect. We were able to cook meals, have a fire outside and coffee on the deck. Will definitely be back!

What a relaxing stay that I had with my dog at this campground over the past three days! Just what I needed to get my final dose of camping as the season comes to a close. Perfect weather. Stayed in a rental cabin and enjoyed a beautiful view of the lit up Seguin Lighthouse at night under the full moon. The owners are very nice and it's pretty clear that they're dog lovers! Met a couple there who went clamming at low tide on the premises and invited me to dinner to enjoy their fresh catch. Those clams were some delicious! Can also have cooked lobsters delivered to your campsite. Maine at its finest! I'll definitely be going back.

Such a wonderful place! The staff was very helpful, location was great, booking was easy. The area itself is picturesque. Would love to go back again. Was also surprised that there was garbage pickup as I've never experienced that camping. Helped a lot. Thank you!

Our recent four night stay here at Sagadahoc Bay Campground was beyond awesome. We were blessed with high tides for morning and evening. There’s nothing better than waking to the sound of waves washing on shore, or cocktails by the fire at waters edge. We walked the low tide which extended more than ¾ of a mile from the high tide spot, amazing. Our stay was on site #21. We did drive up to see what the “Tent Ocean” sites looked like, and we were just in awe of the views and locations. The hospitality from all of the staff could not have been better. Everyone was as nice and helpful as can be. If pools, clubhouses, playgrounds, event staff, etc… are your thing, this isn’t your kind of place. If peace, quiet, tranquility, rustic, “away-from-it-all”, oceanside, etc… is your thing, this is the place for you. And they are pet friendly, always a plus.

Love this place. Acres of water and rocks and mud at low tide is for children including my inner child. Pat and Eric are terrific hosts.

We love camping here! Very quiet, owners are friendly and helpful. Other campers were very friendly. Great place for clamming. Looking forward to another trip there!
