Seawall Campground

Seawall Campground is a campground in Acadia National Park featuring four loops with drive-up sites and walk-in tent areas. The facility sits on 120 acres and combines vehicle access for RVs with pedestrian pathways to individual camping spots.

The campground was built between 1936 and 1942 by the Works Projects Administration as part of Roosevelt's New Deal program. Its construction reflects early infrastructure development in American national parks during the Great Depression.

The campground incorporates 105 fire pits crafted in the National Park Service rustic style, using natural materials and traditional masonry techniques.

The campground operates from May through October with most reservations available about six months ahead. Visitors should plan early since popular sites fill quickly during peak season.

The historic fire pits use natural building materials and traditional masonry techniques characteristic of National Park Service construction. Each fireplace was crafted with specialized brick and steel components designed to withstand outdoor conditions.
