About
This oceanfront property on an island accessible by scenic ferry offers spectacular waterfront camping with some of the most dramatic natural features in the region. Guests awaken to stunning sunrises over the bay and experience the remarkable rise and fall of some of the world's highest tides right from their campsites. The expansive water views, peaceful setting, and abundant wildlife—including deer, waterfowl, and occasional whale sightings—create an unforgettable retreat that many visitors describe as their favorite camping experience. The island itself is a destination unto itself, with excellent hiking trails offering coastal vistas, charming lighthouses to visit, pristine beaches for exploration, and abundant opportunities for kayaking and wildlife observation directly from the property. A local museum provides insight into the island's rich history and fishing heritage. The welcoming community features quaint shops, restaurants, and coffee spots that reflect the island's character and charm. This location provides generous, level gravel parking spaces with power hookups, water access via an ingenious 12V pump system, and dump station facilities—amenities rarely found at similar properties. A well-stocked information building on-site offers maps, trail guides, life jackets, kayaks, cooking equipment including pots and propane burners for preparing fresh lobster, and extension cords. The nearby working lobster processing facility allows guests to purchase exceptionally fresh catch, with cooking assistance provided by the hosts. The hosts' genuine hospitality and extensive knowledge of the island transform a stay here into a personalized island experience. Guests consistently note how welcoming and attentive they are, often checking in daily and offering thoughtful recommendations for exploring the area. Whether sitting by the campfire, watching tides transform the shoreline twice daily, or enjoying meals prepared with local lobster, visitors find this location offers a rare combination of natural beauty, practical comfort, and genuine hospitality.
