Camping at Maine State Parks

Whether you are a seasoned camper or first-timer you will enjoy the camping at a Maine State Park campground. For groups of 6 or fewer people with at least one camper aged 18 order.

Temporary Park Closure Alert - Aroostook and Cobscook State Parks are temporarily closed due to in-process infrastructure improvements. A reopening date has not been determined, and the hope is to reopen before the end of the 2025 camping season. These park enhancements include the construction of new bathroom facilities and modernized, accessible amenities, as well as underground water and utility upgrades. These investments reflect the Bureau of Parks and Lands’ commitment to providing high-quality recreational spaces while preserving the natural beauty of these popular outdoor destinations. We hope you will visit nearby destinations including other Maine State Parks—some helpful destination planning resources include BPL Park Search, State Park Campgrounds, VisitMaine-Camping, and Maine Trail Finder.
