This is the real deal, our camp was built by my grandfather in the 1940's and has been lovingly kept up by our family ever since. Camp Bud has 100' of waterfront in quiet School House Cove on crystal clear, spring fed, Beech Hill Pond which measure three miles by five and has great fishing, loons, ducks, eagles and so much more. We provide a 18' canoe, paddle boat and 3 adult kayaks and 2 kids kayaks for exploring the lake. Acadia National Park is a 45 min drive from camp.
Our roomy 10' by 20' screened/glassed in porch is just 10 feet from the waters edge. Every guest we have had over the past 5 years has said "The porch is the place to be!" Many people sleep on the porch even if there is room for them to sleep in the camp. There is nothing like listening to the rain on the roof directly over your head or hearing the Loons just outside the porch screens, catching the pine scented breeze in the evening, or hearing the waves lapping on the rock lined shore. The porch features a futon and a long roomy table built by my father 50 years ago. Using the bench and chairs the table will seat 8 comfortably for your lobster dinner (we provide all pots, utensils and special plates you would need for this) or maybe you will want to cook out on our large Bar-B-Q / Smoker located just outside the porch door, (we do not provide charcoal) also all utensils for this are hanging on the porch wall including long forks for cooking hot dogs and s'mores over the fire pit, we do not provide wood, however fire wood stands are on the roads and most stores also sell bundles of wood. We also have a large table and chairs for picnicking outdoors under the pines and only 5 feet from the waters edge
Many charming features are still intact such as the painted wood floors, the original knotty pine paneling the pealed pine logs that make up the railing to the loft bedroom. The original wood shed and boat house are also still here.
The master bedroom and bathroom were added on in the 80's. This bedroom has a nice view to the water a queen size bed dresser and large closet. The bath is right beside the master and has a shower. there is another 1/2 bath in the laundry room.
We supply all linens, extra blankets, plenty of towels including beach towels, we also provide toilet paper shampoo and soap.
We have a nice large kitchen as you can see in the pictures. We supply table settings for 8 all pots and pans mixing bowls and cooking utensils in addition to paper towels plastic wrap, aluminum foil, storage containers, most basic spices, salt and pepper, coffee, sugar, flour, cooking oil, Pam, soy sauce, dish washing liquid dish washer detergent (cascade)
We have had many guests that have booked 1 week the first year have come back the next year and booked 2 weeks so they can spend one at camp and the other at Acadia National Park and the many other scenic attractions.
The camp has air conditioning, downstairs and large oscillating fan in the loft, the house has a simple to use enclosed Rinnai Propane heater.
