I stayed here off-season with some friends in one of the oceanfront cabins. We were in the cabin on the point, which was simple but beautiful.The cabins are well-stocked with kitchen gear, and have cold running water, with an outhouse close by. The shower and laundry facilities are adequate. There is a nice playground area for the kids. My friends... More

This is a no frills campground, with minimal but usable facilities. The location is very nice and good for walks around the grounds for the water views. Also, the grounds are a working farm, and cows moo pleasantly as background effects. Also, for city folks the cows march here and there at different times of the day which is interesting... More

I just want to share my experience of cancelling with the campground. I called 7 days prior to my 2 night reservation to cancel due to 2 children being ill and being on antibiotics. I was charged not a fee but the full 2 nights because it was not 14 days or more notice. Emergencys do come up that will... More

We camped in one of the spots that has w/e. These sites are NOTHING like the ones in the brochure or on the website. The sites without w/e by the water are nice, but this area is definitely NOT. Our site bordered a very swampy area. The empty site next to us had not been cleaned--the fire pit was heaped... More

We truly love the location. The ocean views are just fantastic. Three things need some attention. The first is the outhouses. The need more daily maintenance, the are foul. The second thing is that the showers have no pressure. I would rather pay double so that I could have at least a little pressure. The third item is that it... More

We stayed in the campground in August, tent camping, and our slot was amazing. We were in a nice shady corner aread up against the water. It was just s short (but steep) walk down to the rocks for our own beach area, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We paid the $25 per person for the lobster bake, which was awesome!... More

We love this place for its simplicity and a campground where sites have a good amount of space for you to relax and enjoy the surroundings instead of listening to your neighbors snore. Yes the outhouses could use a little help but a trip to the main shower house you can enjoy a clean environment for your business. We will... More

Don't stay here if you can't handle poor facilities! The outhouses are disgusting! I don't think they are ever cleaned! Human waste all over the inside of the hole, liquid splashes up... I will spare you the rest. Facilities in the main bath house ate clean however very small. Toilets are very low to the ground, and stalls are almost... More

You know you're going to a good place when the person working at the State Tourism Info Centre goes "Oooo, Recompence. Nice Place". Of the many campgrounds in Maine, this was the only one we got with sea-side camping at an affordable price. We had to fore-go electric/water service to get sea-side, but the view was worth it. We probably... More

During the summer of 2008 we stayed at this campground for a month. It was awesome. The kids went to farm camp and had a blast. I couldn't say enough about it. We went back in July and August 2009 and the place was very disappointing. Lots of partying, drinking and rowdy campers. They put huge Rvs next our tent.... More
