    Stayed here last year to see Acadia. Make sure you get your reservation in advance, ideally as soon as they open, because they fill up fast! Bathroom facilities were basic but had running water for toilets and sinks. Used the privately owned showers nearby a short (~5 minute) car ride from the site. Tent site was as expected with a gravel base and an area for your car to park. Best feature of this site is the central location in Acadia and the cheap cost compared with other sites on the island!
