Hermit Island Campground, Phippsburg, Maine
We stayed here a few years ago when I was pregnant with my third son and we’ve been wanting to go back ever since. We are finally going to go this summer so I will update the post with more info when we do! This campground is SO beautiful and has it’s own private beach. There are 271 campsites to choose from! There’s some campsites with ocean views, some marsh and tidal views and some in the woods. All sites are near a bathroom with running water- I know that is a must for some people.
Book early
Make sure you reach out to the campground early in the year to book a site as they fill up early! I say that because my friend also loves to go here and she always books her favorite site early! She loves to go by the marsh with the tide going in and out so she can bring her kayaks. When we went we got lucky and booked with only a few weeks notice and got a site right on the ocean. I will link the pictures below, it was beautiful!
Amenities
Hermit Island Campground has a small store when you first arrive with some essentials you could need. There is also the ‘Kelp Shed’ which has a game room and outdoor volleyball court, and outdoor ping pong tables. On the website there is an interactive map that gives a little blurb about each campsite and also makes it clear where the bathrooms are. It is very easy to click around the website and find a great spot so make sure you check it out!
