Acadia draws over 4 million visitors a year to a few hundred campsites — the only major national park in the Northeast. CampWatch monitors every cancellation on Recreation.gov and emails you the moment a site opens.
Acadia is the only major national park in the Northeast — no substitute within a day's drive for the tens of millions of people between Boston and New York. When you want a coastal Maine camping trip in summer, there is simply no plan B that comes close.
Blackwoods holds just 281 sites. On the 1st of each month at 10 am EST, 90% of sites for the next six months go live on Recreation.gov at once, and the best dates are gone by 10:01. The remaining 10% release on a rolling 14-day window, keeping the competition constant all season long.
What works is catching a cancellation — any hour, any day. CampWatch monitors Recreation.gov continuously and emails you before anyone else even refreshes the page.
