Hadley's campground was terrific! The bathrooms are very clean and have individual rooms for bathrooms and showers so you have privacy. You can catch the free bus shuttle directly from the campground to bar harbor and Acadia National Park. We walked a half mile to Hadley's point beach which is an amazing small and beautiful beach. There are also two amazing lobster shacks across the street as well... Hadley's campground was terrific!

My only suggestion would be to keep the laundry facilities open 24 hours instead of the office hours only.

Nice clean campground near Acadia. Very convenient. Crowded but not noisy at all. Small store. Newer showers although the hot water was inconsistent from one to the other. Showers one and two were best. Bring quarters. Laundry. Campsites are tight but we got a good one C21.

The property is well maintained, landscaped & even has fall decor. There’s cabins were far enough apart to allow for privacy & quiet. There are bath houses w showers & restrooms for the campers (new & spotless). The laundry room was well appointed and made drying wet clothes from rain easy. The staff is very helpful. They delivered firewood, kindling and ice we bought at the office to our cabin. They were always available for questions/suggestions & after hours as needed. A couple of things to note: bring all your own linens or order from camp office prior, have quarters ready for the shower hot water (50 cents for 7 mins & was hot). Suggest bringing camp chairs for cabins to use indoors or around camp fire ring. Bring your cooler (office sells ice) and any outdoor cookers (grill, Blackstone). You can use on the picnic table on front patio. Bring extra small garbage bags to empty ur trash in dumpster as needed. We had an amazing time & can’t wait to return next year!

This is the second time staying at Hadley's Point Campground and we love this place, the amenities make this place feel like we're in a hotel. They have the nice little shop out front where you can buy anything you need, the restrooms and showers are always in mint conditions, you can even do laundry here, and they have great wifi coverage. Acadia National Park is a 10 minute drive and Bar Harbor...
