Beautiful fall colors with red, green, yellow, and orange leaves. We purchased a week long pass, for $35 I believe. This gets you into the park. The park has some really nice trails, we went under… Full review by jdneedler04

The title says it all. It is all downhill from the wonderful past of few people and no restrictions. You need reservations now for sections (Cadillac Mtn) and the roads and visitor center are jammed … Full review by Hooked_on_travel77

It says you need a car pass to go on the sunrise view on Cadillac Mtn., until Oct 22. We are going to be there from Oct 25 to 28th. Can we still go? Do we need a pass? Thanks
A:
The park website will have accurate and current information and I would check that.
Family will be driving an RV up to Acadia next month and are staying at various campgrounds. I see that not many places offer RV parking, however NPS told me that there is 1 or 2 RV parking spots at Sand Beach. Can anyone confirm? It seems like Sand beach (for little beehive hikes, etc) and the Bass Head Harbor lighthouse are the hardest to park near from an RV. Getting there early isn't an issue, but just need to know where to go? Can anyone advise? Thanks!

When we were there last week the parking lot was full as was the back up lot and cars were lined up along the roadway as far as allowed. I noticed an RV or two parked along the road where we ended up, but am not sure where the actual RV designated spots are located. I imagine they are in the primary or main lot somewhere. We didn’t get there until maybe 2 in the afternoon and agree that earlier would have better chances of best parking.
If I bring my kayaks are we allowed to kayak on the lakes?

That I don't know... there weren't any kayaks but we were at the tail end of the busy season (late October-second week of November) so it was chilly. I would think they have areas …
That I don't know... there weren't any kayaks but we were at the tail end of the busy season (late October-second week of November) so it was chilly. I would think they have areas where you can kayak but you'd have to check their website to find out for sure. Sorry I couldn't answer your question!
Planning a trip to Acadia in August. Need suggestions for where to fly in to, and ideas for itinerary and lodging. It’s my husband and me, we like hiking, kayaking, biking etc. Not into huge crowded areas.
