Vintage Downeast Airstream near Acadia with Fabulous View

Glamping Downeast-Experience Glamping in a dreamy, renovated vintage Airstream. With a queen bed, private deck, a real toilet, and a fabulous view, our Airstream is located in the heart of Downeast Maine. Deep in the woods and at the edge of the lake, you will feel like you are a million miles away yet we are just 10 miles from historic Ellsworth (the gateway to Acadia) and another 18 miles from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Glamping Downeast is the perfect basecamp for exploring Acadia.

Our Downeast Airstream is a 1972 Airstream Ambassador (29 feet) that has been completely renovated to provide luxury and convenience while deep in the woods. Here are some things that make the dreamy Airstream a unique glamping experience. Please message us if you have any questions or special needs.

- The View - The Downeast Airstream offers a fantastic view of the Lake and the wetlands. And you can see Cadillac Mountain from the the edge of the lake, just steps from the Airstream.

- The Bathroom - The Downeast Airstream has a bathroom with hot water and a real flush toilet. And its enclosed (private) outdoor shower that looks out toward the lake is on the Airstream’s private deck.

-The Location - We are close to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor yet far enough away to avoid the crowds, traffic, and noise. Our Glamping Camps are deep in the woods on our seven acre private property, not in a campground or "Glamping Resort." We have only two other camps on our property.

-The Bed - We took out the 70’s style twin beds and installed a Queen with a hybrid mattress, crisp, clean sheets, and cozy duvet. The sofa in the salon converts to a twin and there is a settee across from the bathroom that is perfect for kids.

-Wi-Fi - We do not have Wi-Fi (we are in the woods) but there is very good cellular data service available.

-Cooking - The Downeast Airstream features a kitchenette with a sink, a refrigerator, a microwave and a Keurig coffee maker. Our outdoor kitchen, which is in a common area, features a grill station, stove top, and microwave. We provide pots, pans and cooking utensils and plates, cups, and eating utensils. The kitchen's refrigerator is stocked with condiments and essentials.

-Nightly Campfire - The campfire ring with comfortable Adirondack chairs is adjacent to the outdoor kitchen area. There is no need to bring or buy firewood, we have lots.

The road in to our property is a half mile camp road that takes you deep into the woods. No traffic, no noise, just seclusion, quiet, trees, and the beautiful lake.

Please note that the Downeast Airstream is about 125 feet down a gravel path from the parking area (and just steps to the lake) so you cannot park right next to the cabin. We have a luggage cart/wagon available if needed.

***We do not allow dogs or animals of any kind. It is a safety issue. There is a risk of an interaction with wildlife in the area.

***Glamping Downeast is in Maine's great outdoors so be prepared to accept the inherent risk of your adventure including wildlife, insects, and unpredictable conditions (we can’t control weather). Come with an adventurous and open mind, and some bug spray.

Acadia stay

Great property as advertised. We took advantage of the owners' suggestions about visiting Acadia and places to eat in the area. That helped make our vacation memorable.

A very beautiful, quiet area. The bed in the tent and in the A-frame were very comfortable. The A-frame has two twins beds, and a little bathroom with toilet and sink. The outdoor shower off of the tent had great water pressure! Would definitely stay here again! About 40 min from Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park, 10 min from Ellsworth, and about 30 min from Bangor International Airport.

This was our family's first "glamping" experience. We loved it. Our host Lee was helpful and made us feel comfortable at the site. Everything in the tent and A frame was clean and in good working order. We were close enough to the conveniences of a town, but far enough away to feel like we were on an outdoor adventure.

Great stay!!

Everything about the experience was A+, just wished I had known the outdoor kitchen was shared. It might have been in the description but I don't remember. It was a great way to camp if you really don't want to lug all the equipment but experience all the peace and quiet of the outdoors!! I would recommend for sure!

Wonderful stay in a beautiful setting

We had a fantastic 4-night stay in one of Lee & Peg's glamping tents. Peg & Lee were super helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable about the area and Acadia and made wonderful recommendations. The tent was comfortable, equipped with just what you need, and the common areas were also well equipped. Wish we could have stayed longer and are already planning our return.
