Beautiful view of the inland waterway from our site. Quick access to Bar Harbor.

My wife and I just spent a wonderful week at Bar Harbor/Oceanside KOA and loved everything about it. The staff was friendly and helpful, the sites were all nice, the place was very well maintained and only a 15 minute drive to downtown Bar Harbor. The train ride for the kids, and the food truck (a big red lobster) was convenient and had good food. Great resort.

Cabin was fairly clean, well appointed with items we might need. The queen bed was extremely noisy....it seems like it's the springs and it really needs to be replaced. It squeaked every time you moved. I moved to the bunk and my husband tried not to move. It would be nice if some more hooks were added for hanging up clothes,

We loved the KOA’s close proximity to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. We loved our view. The campsite was very clean, organized, and well run. All of the staff we interacted with were very accommodating and friendly.

Only here for 1 night but we were camped on the edge of the water, beautiful spot, weather was perfect and bare a breath of wind! The price on the other hand was similar to a hotel stay, all said & done it was over $200 Canadian for 1 night

Unevened and very small site...no cable...overpriced. it's not because it cost $100 a night...it's because it does not worth it! I have been to many Koa in my live and compared to others...my site should have cost less than $75/day.

We stayed in a cabin. The KOA has a great setting in the bay, clean bathrooms and showers. Close location to the park. Quiet and peaceful. We plan on returning.

The site was perfect, the camp store was excellent. But the advertised activities did not happen. Our kids were very disappointed that a schedule was posted, but not carried through. And we REALLY missed the Sunday morning Pancakes! Hopefully when we return in June, what is listed actually happens.

The grounds were beautiful, sites had bbqs and a fire ring, staff were very friendly and helpful. Loved it!

Cabin 2 had a strong foul smell, unable to reduce with airing cabin out or using an air sanitizer. Had to leave the second night because the scent was too strong and comfortably stay. Also, was unaware the bathrooms closest to the cabins would not be available during the stay.

Great staff wonderful campground. Already recommended to friends who booked for a few weeks later this month.

Ohmygoodness this is the best KOA we've ever stayed at. Absolutely number ONE. Incredible staff, well stocked, 100% ready for us on day 1 of the season. Felt like royalty. The site we had was amazing and right on the water. We will Absolutely be back and tell everyone we know to stay here. WOW WOW WOW. Thank you for making our stay so memorable!

What an incredible place!! Highly recommend back-in sites on the water. We had the best 5 days exploring both the tidepools and other family friendly things at the KOA. Proximity to Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor can’t be beat. Would come back in a heartbeat! Thanks for the memories

Everything! Great location, clean grounds, clean, facilities, and wonderful staff! This is by far our favorite campground. This is the one that we come back to time and again. We stay mostly in the spring and fall when the weather is pretty unpredictable. But it hasn’t hampered our experiences at all.

The staff was welcoming - the views amazing on waterfront - as far as the overall koa - for opening weekend it seemed unprepared and a bit run down.

Great sites, right on the water! Beautiful view!

We have camped with friends before but this was our first on our own and we couldn’t have had a better experience. The staff was friendly , the campground clean and the view amazing.

The airstreams are not comfortable at all - the shower is too small to use and the antifreeze was still in the pipes. Unacceptable

Not happy having no WiFi or Cable

We did not care for the airstream we rented. The AC took a long time to catch up to the heat during the day. The shower was a trickle. My family stayed in a camp site in there own camper and their water pressure was good

Beautiful site right on the water. Only wish rates were a little less expensive to afford more stays!

Worst KOA experience I’ve ever had… don’t get me wrong, we had a decent time & there are parts of the campsite that did look fantastic… unfortunately, we sprung for a basic cabin, which was not good: Wifi did not work. Parking for cabins was off-site. (Never seen this) Bathrooms were extraordinarily far.

everyone was great met a lot of nice people including the campers who used the facilities

Great location but that's about it. We had a "deluxe cabin", there were fingernails in the bedroom, and the bathroom sink and faucet was so dirty. Kitchenware and utensils were also not clean. For the price we paid, wish it was at least clean.

Nice location but super expensive. Cost has increased to close to 200 a night for waterfront sites for next year. Was half that in 2019. Staff is nice and do a good job but just becoming unaffordable for a campsite. Too bad, we have been coming here for many years.

This is a very nice park to stay at. Close to everything you want to see and do in the area. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Views from the beach area are amazing beautiful. Bathrooms were probably the cleanest I have ever seen at a park campground. A+ campground!!

What a wonderful location and great campground. We stayed October 12-15, the last few days of the season. The staff was friendly and the facilities were clean. We're definitely going back!

The workers at this campground, especially Jane and Mary Anne and Eric, are outstanding and work really hard despite a shortage of staff because many left early. The location is ideal right on the water, & grounds are kept impeccable even after the hurricane with cleanup. There are activities for all ages even though fewer after staff shortages. We always look forward to coming back each year.

Great spot, tent sites are in a weird spot between a bunch of trailers but had no issues.

KOA Bar Harbor Oceanside earns their 5 stars! The staff are courteous and friendly. The sites are all roomy. Ours was at the oceans edge and was beautiful! Many water side RV sites plus tent sites and nice cozy cabins. I highly recommend this KOA!
