QUESTION: WHAT IS THE BEST CAMPGROUND IN ACADIA NATIONAL PARK: BLACKWOODS, SEAWALL OR DUCK HARBOR CAMPGROUND?**
ANSWER: | Believe it or not, this is the number one question people ask me — on Twitter, on this blog, on IG, on Flickr so I figured I would do a more in-depth look at the campgrounds we visited in Acadia National Park: Blackwoods Campground vs. Seawall Campground vs. Duck Harbor Campground. In terms of which is “better” really boils down to your style of camping and what you plan on doing while visiting Acadia National Park. We are more (way) off-the-beaten track sort of people and while I love a good gift shop my preference when camping is to be as remote and as far away from people as possible. The corollary to this is that if I wanted to get up and see something like a sunrise on Cadillac Mountain, there’s no way I’d stay somewhere remote, no matter how beautiful. In that instance, convenience is much more important to me.
Please note that information regarding pricing and reservation policies may have changed since I visited/this post, so please consult the national park pages for accurate info.
