What takes an RV park from good to great? This is a new park with all of the utilities proper planned. Strong and clean water, reliable power, and sewers properly graded. All sites are extremely level and properly graded with high grade gravel. Landscaping is top-notch with grassy areas properly maintained. This is the first time I liked to enter the dog park. It has freshly chipped wood as a floor.

The location is perfect for access to Schoodic Point, Bar Harbor, and points north. We took a leisurely day trip to Lubec and Eastern Most Point. There are some very close and outstanding options for Lobster and Oysters.

The lovely owners are present and add a level of concierge beyond compare and expectations. They offer a Maine Experience meal each week. I would describe the meal and afterglow as an outstanding educational-entertainment experience. Rob and Peggy certainly went out of their way to make this a very special memory.

When planning this trip, we considered many RV parks much closer to Bar Harbor. But in retrospect we would choose West Bay again and again. It is away from crowds, quiet, with beautiful night skies.
