Glamping Downeast- Relax, unwind, and recharge after exploring Acadia in a luxury Glamping Tent with an en-suite bathroom (with a real flush toilet!) located in the heart of Downeast Maine. Glamping Downeast offers the perfect mix of luxury, nature, and a fabulous view. You will feel like you are a million miles away yet we are only 15 minutes from civilization; conveniently located just 10 miles from historic Ellsworth (the gateway to Acadia) and another 18 miles from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park.
Here are some things that you might find important:
- The View - The Glamping Tent's deck offers a fantastic view of the Lake and the woods. And on a clear day you can see Cadillac Mountain from the deck.
- The Bathroom - The Glamping Tent has an ensuite bathroom with hot water and a real flush toilet. And the enclosed (private) outdoor shower is nestled under the tent's awning.
-The Location - We are close to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor yet far enough away to avoid the crowds, traffic, and noise. Our Glamping Camps are deep in the woods on our seven acre private property, not in a campground or "Glamping Resort." We have only three glamping camps on our property; our Glamping Tent, a Tiny House A-Frame Cabin (VRBO #2522475), and a Vintage Airstream (VRBO #2347814).
Some other things to note:
The Glamping Tent features a king bed with a real king mattress, crisp, clean sheets, and cozy duvets.
The Glamping Tent has a mini fridge and a Keurig coffee maker (with an assortment of K-cups) so you can enjoy coffee in the morning and cold drinks in the evening on the deck without having to leave the tent.
The outdoor kitchen, which is in a common area, features a gas grill, a separate stovetop, and a microwave. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and drinking water is available in the outdoor kitchen. We provide basic pots, pans and cooking utensils and plates, cups, and eating utensils. The outdoor kitchen's refrigerator is stocked with condiments and essentials and the ingredients for S'Mores.
The campfire ring with comfortable Adirondack chairs is adjacent to the outdoor kitchen area. There is no need to bring or buy firewood, we have plenty.
The road in to our property is a half mile camp road that takes you deep into the woods. No traffic, no noise, just seclusion, quiet, trees, and the beautiful lake.
Please note that the Glamping Tent is about 250 feet down a gravel path from the parking area (and just steps from the edge of the lake) so you cannot park right next to the tent. We have a luggage cart/wagon available if needed.
We do not allow animals of any kind. It is a safety issue. There is a risk of an extreme interaction with wildlife in the area (particularly with dogs).
***Glamping Downeast is in Maine's great outdoors so be prepared to accept the inherent risk of your adventure including wildlife, insects, and unpredictable conditions (we can’t control weather). Come with an adventurous and open mind, and some bug spray.
