Scenic Glamping in Maine’s Natural Beauty
Under Canvas Acadia is a Glamping facility with proximity to Acadia National Park. The tents are comfortable roomy and well appointed. The staff is knowledgeable friendly and very well versed in local trails for hiking. The restaurant and bar in the Lodge are small but very well staffed with something for everyone. The Lodge is situated on a gorgeous inlet in Surry, Maine with water views, and a large grassy lawn with plenty of chairs for relaxing with a view. They had interesting programs and activities like yoga available, live music many nights and unlimited s’mores and fire pits for gathering and enjoying, It is a family friendly facility and very nice for all ages. You really are immersed in nature. A wonderful experience for active travelers!

Beautiful property and tents. Great setup for a quiet relaxing weekend a little closer to nature with beautiful views. There is a small restaurant on site with decent food but very overpriced. The main lobby tent has a lot of amenities, including free unlimited s’mores to pair with the nightly fire pits lit outside. Great place to hang outside with a view of the water. My only complaint is that the prices make this less accessible. I’d love to come back and stay longer, but the price just isn’t worth it.

Great, peaceful setting.
This place was lovely and the staff were incredibly friendly. The only thing I'd love to be able to do is to reserve specific tents -- for instance, we would have loved tent 1 since it's right near the water. Currently, it doesn't seem like the system allows for that. Other than that, it was a really special place. Thank you!

A wonderful and unique experience. The tents were beautiful and spacious. The in-tent facilities made this as comfortable as a hotel room. I would highly recommend Under Canvass for a great outdoor experience.

Under Canvas Acadia was absolutely amazing. This was our first stay at an Under Canvas location and we are excited to check out the rest. The tents were nestled in the woods for amazing serenity. We loved hearing the night sounds and waking up to nature. The tents were spacious and beds were very comfy. The bathrooms had everything we needed. The staff was amazing! They texted every morning to see what we needed and were very prompt in helping with any needs. The food was excellent. I loved the all access to coffee and tea. The breakfast food was delicious. The evening events sounded super fun (we had tourist activities planned at night but in the future I look forward to participating). I could not think of a single thing to improve. We loved it. Thank you!!
