Greetings Hipcampers! We are located in beautiful Aurora ME 28 miles outside of Bangor along route 9 headed towards Calais and the Canadian border. Come enjoy some Wild Maine blueberries picked fresh from our farm or you can grab a rake and harvest your own! Blueberries are in season during the month of August and tapers off in September. We are located close to Ralphie's General store and cafe. He has gas, diesel and and bait to fish from many of our local ponds. He also has everything you need to outfit your camping adventures. Long Pond and Dow Pines recreation area is a 10 minute drive from camp to swim, fish and get ice cream. The Union River is nearby also for swimming and fishing when in season. The Airline Brewing Company, next to Ralphie's, is open from Thursday to Sunday with an amazing selection of fresh crafted micro-brews and offers amazing food from Matt the chef and his great team. Foraging is nearby on Amherst Public Lands when in season, with many delicious edible mushrooms abound! We also have great rock climbing just up the road in Clifton (Cliff Town). We are a great base camp for climbing and a dip in Park's Pond to cool off afterwards :) Acadia National park is a 1.25 hour drive and a straight shot from our camp. I have 4 generations of roots in Aurora and would love to tell you the history of the area and our blueberry farm. We have 6 beautiful new campsites. Book now and let's go pick some wicked good blueberries!🫐 Wild blueberry farm. Centrally located an hour out of Bangor Maine and an hour from the ocean, Bar Harbor, Maine and an hour from Canada. 🏕 2 acres of tent camping, blueberries, blackberries, fishing. .. GREETINGS!!

Left Something to be Desired

Tent

We were thankful to find a convenient site on the way to Canada, but this site left something to be desired. There are 6 sites but most are fairly overgrown. The sites are not far off a major highway and it was quite noisy throughout the night, making it difficult to sleep. The listing mentioned a bathroom but we couldn’t find it. I messaged the host the next morning (we didn’t need the bathroom but were considering stopping at the site again) and two days later still don’t have a response. If you need a site, it gets the job done but we don’t plan to go back.

Blueberries forests lakes and coast

Within driving distance of anything you need and the Hostess knows the area very well and helps with whatever she can. Great site on a former blueberry farm. Plenty of hiking fishing around and rich in history! We will stay again in the future well worth it and she's currently working to make it better!
