The sites along Beach Road are pretty spacious! Plenty of room to set up a tent next to your RV and have 2 cars parked without feeling cramped at all. Our site was a 5 minute walk to the beach, so it's easy to set up a spot on the beach early and walk back to your campsite for lunch during the day. The sunset over the beach is beautiful, there are some great local seafood spots down the road, and a cute downtown area to check out in Madison. Bring a bike to cruise around the loops throughout the park or to take a ride down a dirt walking/biking trail.
Note that the $35/night rate is for a site with electric & water hook-up for CT residents, it's $45/night if you're from out of state. Cheaper sites without hookups are available.

We stayed here Friday-Sunday at the end of July and loved it! We were able to make a last-minute reservation online and were pleasantly surprised by both the size and the privacy of our campsite. The tall trees surrounding each site are beautiful and make you feel a bit more secluded. There are 3 short hiking trails in the park, 1 of which leads to a swimming hole, and a bathroom building for each loop. The bathrooms were clean and just a short walk from each site. At night, you can hear a little noise from the highway nearby but not much. The campground is 5 minutes from downtown Brattleboro, which is full of awesome shops to check out, too!

Highly recommend bringing your headlamps and doing a sunrise hike here! We did one in October after not being able to snag sunrise tickets to drive up Cadillac Mountain. It took about 30 minutes to get to a nice area shortly before the summit where we were able to enjoy amazing views and no crowds.
One of our favorite hikes in Acadia! It's an easy trail with great views and it's fun to play on the rocks at low tide.
This was a challenging and fun hike! As a short person, climbing up some of the rungs took a little extra strategizing but it was do-able and the views at the top were great.
I highly recommend going early in the morning to avoid the crowds! You don't want to be waiting in a long line of people while you're doing this.
I love everything about this campground! We stayed in one of their unique retreats, "Starry Nights", and had a great weekend. They have a ton of RV and tent sites and then their glamping cabins/tents are further back. Everyone that worked there was genuinely friendly and helpful. We can't wait to go back again!
