About Forest Ridge …

New State of Maine Campfire Restrictions: The new law (LD24) took effect in Maine which requires a permit for any campfire that is larger than 3 feet in height and 3 feet in diameter. Permits are issued by the City of Ellsworth Fire Department. Please keep your campfires (in the fire rings provided) and make sure the flames are less than 3 feet in height. Thank you.

We are YOUR camping gateway to Down-East Maine and Acadia National Park.

Our Motto is LARGE sites & QUIET Nights: We do not tolerate partying what so ever! If you are looking for a place to PARTY, keep on looking, Forest Ridge is NOT where you want to be.
