Sites are fairly nice & easy access but they are all very close to one another. Good as it gets I guess for Natl Park without backcountry option. Bathroom facilities are generally well kept & access to running water is always close. Water at Blackwoods Campground was potable but the water at Seawall was not. Not sure if its always like this or if it changes frequently but be sure to confirm when you arrive. There are no showers. The local privately run showers are a quarter per 15 seconds. It takes 7 quarters to start which is about just about enough time to get the water temp right. Time goes quick so bring lots of quarters if you plan to use these. Our biggest issue was being unable to get same site for more than one night in a row. The way the reservations work does not optimize availability so sites end up being randomly parsed. We had to break camp every morning by 10am & could not set up in our new site until noon each day. Park does not allow you to move between sites before that due to needing to be first "cleaned" everyday. This was a pain due to not wanting to roll in at the end of the day & have to setup everything in a hurry before dark. So we had to burn a couple hours right in the middle of our day just waiting until noon so we could relocate our camp. I suggest reserving campsites as far ahead as possible (many weeks or months) to avoid this hassle. Acadia is gorgeous but don't expect the solitude of backcountry camping. Hope this is helpful to someone. Happy trails!
