Mount Desert Island Vacations from $545

Excellent location near Acadia National Park.

You will not be disappointed with what you see once you see inside the doors. Beautifully decorated and everything you need, but... it is more like a modular 4-apartment home / b&b - no ocean view, at the end of a dirt road (lots of dust), but a few deer met us as we unpacked. We were skeptical at first, yet pleasantly surprised with our stay. I highly recommend, so long as your expectations are set.

Had a great experience staying at Under Canvas in Acadia. The whole vibe was fantastic. The experience is rustic and it provides a really fun entry point into camping for kids. The grounds are well maintained and there is a beautiful backdrop to the water. It's definitely a drive (~45min) to the park from the camp ground but it's not bad. The restaurant on site was good. We had breakfast there for our three day visit and it was above expectations. The staff were great - everyone there is really friendly and wants to make your stay enjoyable. I read a lot of reviews going into this trip - you have to set expectations for yourself. Glamping can still be rustic. My family enjoyed it and made it a fun experience. My kids loved the smores and camp fires. They also loved the little beach for skipping rocks and looking for treasures. I would recommend this experience if you have little kids and want to introduce them to camping.

Great place to stay while hiking in Acadia and quieter than Bar Harbor. Breakfast is perfect for hikers and very clean place.
