Best in Maine: Finalist

Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2023.

Scars in the polished granite streambed tell the story of saw mills from the 19th century. Not far from the foundation of one of the more established farmsteads of the era, this campsite is tucked away from the road down by the rushing Bull Branch of the Sunday River. Whether you bake on the rocks after dipping, or toss a fly in a quiet pool, the river will soothe your soul. Explore endless mountains streams, trails to the Appalachian Trail, and remote dirt roads in the heart of the Mahoosucs from your secluded walk-in low impact tent site with privy. Deep swimming holes and trout fishing beckon. There are three sites: #1: Riverside (more secluded),#2:Hillside(closest to the parking), and #3: Fireside. The hillside and fireside sites can combine for a group although are at a short distance from each other. If weather conditions permit, all campers can share the fire circle and table. The Riverside has its own table.

Riverside Camping

Me and my two friends had a great time tent camping on Abi’s property. We stayed at the fireside campsite which provided a community fire pit and a picnic table. The property is extremely well kept and peaceful with sounds of the river close by. The riverside site provided access to the river which was amazing. We went in late May and my only complaint (of course no fault of Abi whatsoever) is that the bugs were pretty buggy haha I didn’t know about black fly season and will definitely keep it in mind for next year! Overall fantastic experience, Abi is very friendly and communicative!

Winter camping with the pups!

Wow, what a beautiful spot! I think this may be the best hipcamp I’ve been to! I love winter camping and this was perfect spot! Not too far to walk in with my gear but it also felt very secluded. My pups loved to run around the woods and play by the river! I could also hear the water from where I was staying! I will definitely be back.
