Pro tip: use the shower to warm up your tent on cold nights, alongside the fire stove. We had an awesome stay. The staff were so accommodating. It is glamping, so it is meant to be minimal; but they do have everything you may need. We stayed in a far away tent, which is not fun for the distance, but oh-so- quiet in the morning as others are waking and heading to lobby tent. Big shout out to Sydney and Maggie for being so welcoming and helpful to our family. This was our first glamping experience. Our girls loved it. We will be back—- with hopefully much warmer weather!

Had a great experience staying at Under Canvas in Acadia. The whole vibe was fantastic. The experience is rustic and it provides a really fun entry point into camping for kids. The grounds are well maintained and there is a beautiful backdrop to the water. It's definitely a drive (~45min) to the park from the camp ground but it's not bad. The restaurant on site was good. We had breakfast there for our three day visit and it was above expectations. The staff were great - everyone there is really friendly and wants to make your stay enjoyable. I read a lot of reviews going into this trip - you have to set expectations for yourself. Glamping can still be rustic. My family enjoyed it and made it a fun experience. My kids loved the smores and camp fires. They also loved the little beach for skipping rocks and looking for treasures. I would recommend this experience if you have little kids and want to introduce them to camping.
