Great campground, easy drive to Acadia national park. Staff very helpful, gave us shuttle bus schedule and directed us to the new Gateway center for Acadia. There is a resturant on site which had weekly specials we were made aware if we wanted to try. Hope to come back next year

Spent a week including Labor Day weekend. I love this campground. Very convenient to Acadia and Bar Harbor. A couple of miles down the road is the wonderful Island Explorer bus stop and newly opened facilities. I recommend you take full advantage of this benefit as there is limited parking on Mt. Desert Island. Timberland has very friendly staff and great facilities. The sites come in all sizes. The restroom is very clean and I never had an issue using it or getting a hot shower. Their laundry room is huge, clean and they even have extra supplies in case you run out (Thank you Timberland Acres for the dryer sheet) I found this to be a very nice touch. They have a pool and tavern on site as well as firewood for sale. The WiFi is excellent. The location is not only convenient to Acadia National Park but also shopping and restaurants. On this trip I was camping solo but I image the memories so many families have made here are cherished. I will definitely return next year.

The Place is large, limited bath facilities was the only downside. Our trailer is self contained so no impact there. Sites were clean, spacious and well cared for. There were many seasonal campers, they love the place which is why they return year after year. There is much to do in the area, so our two week stay passed quickly. The on grounds tavern has some of the best food in the area. All in all, next time we will be in the area, this is where we will book.

This is our first tent camping trip and Timberland Acres was the perfect launch! Our campsite was level, shaded, and an easy walk to all amenities and bathroom/showers. We ate lobster rolls at the Tavern and they were delicious! About 2.5 miles up the road is Gateway Center Drive (use GPS so you can find it as right now there is a lot of construction obscuring the entrance). This is where you park to get a free shuttle into Acadia NP and connect with other park shuttle bus routes-an excellent way to get around the park and back to camp. The camp staff were very welcoming and helpful. We had a great experience and will come again.

Wonderful campground offering spacious accommodations and a relaxing experience. The campground is relatively flat, making setup with our 35’ camper quick and easy. Guests respect the 5 mph speed limit, which provides a safe environment for children to play and ride bicycles. Amenities on-site include laundry, bath-house (which I found to be clean but would suggest the addition of benches in the shower area), game-room/arcade (please add ping pong or some other cost free game!). Also, the pizza from the tavern was truly some of the best pizza I have ever eaten. That was the icing on the cake.

Timberland Acres RV Park in Trenton, Maine, is the unicorn of campgrounds—everything you want, nothing you don’t, and a side of lobster that’ll make you question why you ever bothered with fast food. We rolled in with our big rig and slid into one of their massive pull-through, full-hookup sites like it was a greased slip-n-slide—over 100 feet of pure, level bliss. No unhitching yoga required, just plug in and kick back with 50-amp service that could power a small circus. The Tavern? Oh, honey, it’s a hidden gem that deserves its own billboard. The food’s so good I’d fight a bear for the last bite—think juicy burgers, fresh catches, and drinks so tasty I’m pretty sure they’re spiked with Acadia magic. Then there’s the outdoor heated pool—perfect for pretending you’re a fancy resort guest while cannonballing like a kid who just discovered gravity. It’s warm, it’s refreshing, and it’s a splashy good time. Our pup gave two paws up to the large dog park—plenty of room to zoom, sniff, and make questionable life choices with new furry friends. Meanwhile, the owners, Colton and Morgan, are the real MVPs. Friendly? They’re the kind of folks who’d lend you their last marshmallow and still smile about it. Professional? They run this place tighter than a clam at low tide, all while making you feel like family—minus the awkward holiday arguments. This isn’t just an RV park; it’s a vibe. If you’re near Acadia and don’t stay here, you’re basically choosing sadness. Five stars, no notes—except maybe bring stretchy pants for the Tavern.

Timberland RV Park was a great park. Large spaces, full hookups, a good size dog park/ play area. Close to everything, very convenient. Park managers and all staff were great. They have an awesome Tavern right on site which is very convenient and the bartenders were great. Propane, Ice and firewood available on site. We absolutely enjoyed our stay there and have already recommended it to others.

This place is just too big and kind of noisy with all the people and dogs. Lots of carts buzzing around day and night. Not the best place for kids to be playing or riding bikes. Only one bathroom so it can be a 15 minute walk each way depending where your site is. Lots of "developed" sites which we really don't care for. More like being in a mobile home park than a campground. Great location for accessing Acadia NP, Bar Harbor and surrounding area though.

Quiet, spacious RV Park 20 minutes from Acadia, Maine. Office staff warm, friendly and accommodating. we had to add 2 more weeks to our stay and the office staff assisted. Most sites are pull through, 80-100 feet long, definitely Big Rig friendly. Saturday was 2 hours of music, outdoors, band was incredible. Bingo and kids games this week too! Love this place, very relaxing, we will be back.

This park is an absolute gem for big rigs. The pull through sites are very long. The park is very well kept and the staff was very friendly. AT&T cell service is 1-2 bars but still useable. Turning left out of the park can be tricky with lots of traffic coming from Acadia/Bar Harbor. Very close to town for groceries and supplies if needed. We would definitely stay here again if in the area.

Bingo night was a mess, the staff never brought my my dentures so I was forced to make my 84 year old husband chew my food for me. Once bingo was called, the obese woman in the thigh highs and red satin dress threw her pea soup all over the crowd in excitement. The owner (a God loving Christian deciple) send me my dentures when they drained out the punch bowl. The owner is good but not so good maybe go elsewhere.

Timberland Acres the place to stay while visiting Acadia, 15 minutes away. Office staff great, check in quick and was given very nice welcome info package. Site was 100 feet by 40 feet pull in, very large picnic table. Nice fire pit. Sites are immaculate, very quiet at night. Will be back. Very beautiful area.

This is a very nice park. Quiet at night unlike some parks that have someone who inevitably ignores quiet time and is obnoxiously loud. Lots are closer together but very long. They moved us after first night as well as our first night neighbor and 4 others I counted. (No reason for it). We ended up on a site that was over the septic tanks and every now and then, you got "the smell" in the RV. They should eliminate the 2 sites by this or seal the lids better. 5 stars if we didn't have to deal with it.
