Balsam Cove Campground

Clean, quiet, peaceful, friendly... I stayed during week in off season in one of their cabins which was very spacious and comfortable. The bathhouse next door was well lit, very clean, multiple toilets and 4 showers with lots of hot water. The campground is near hiking trails, Bucksport, Fort Knox, lots of restaurants and entertainment.

Everyone was very kind, employees and other campers. The live band was great as were the campsites. We enjoyed the proximity to some good hiking and visiting Castine and Blue Hill. I love having full hookups at a campground, and everything went smoothly.

Not everyone’s cup of tea. Very much focused on being a family campground but with nighttime activities and very dog friendly. Everyone we met was very nice and the dog park was a huge bonus, with every dog owner and non dog owners being respectful within the dog park and outside the park. We also relaxed some about our dog being barky protective as others had some the same way and everyone just shrugged it off. There were no issues with dogs barking constantly or in the middle of the night. Shower rooms are a bit of a shock. Not fully enclosed and not heated. Very clean though. My only real gripe is that the campground promotes music and other activities that go right up until quiet time at 10:00 p.m. While we respect quiet times, we are also early risers and would appreciate not being su

I have a friend who stays in a camper here, so a few of my girl friends decided it would be fun to surprise her and tent out for the weekend! I'm happy we did. We danced the night away with a DJ on Friday, a bonfire Saturday night. Kids were able to swim and play on the playground whenever! The bathrooms were clean and well-maintained. Petes has delicious food! will certainly be back!

Such a great campground. We have stayed many times, but this time we had to extend our stay due to a family emergency. The campground was so accommodating and kind to us. Special shoutout to Deena for being so so kind to me. Such a great place. Fun place for families to camp and Pete’s Eats has great food if you don’t want to cook.
