Tentrr Signature Site - Downeast Camping at The Dome | RV Rental in Maine

1 Bedroom RV Rental in Franklin, Maine
Summary:
This IS A VERY rural campsite WHICH IS situated in one of the most private corners of The Dome sanctuary. THE SOLAR SHOWER ARE BAGS OF WATER FILLED AND PRESSURIZED WITH AIR. The tent site is a short walk to the shoreline of Great Pond, a beautiful, remote lake with a dock - the perfect place to kayak, fish and swim! TO GET TO THE LAKE, come back from the tent to our driveway. Turn right onto our driveway and walk onto a mowed path down to the lake. The immediate descent at the lake is a bit STEEP.
The Tentrr tent is a canvas tent on a platform. This tent has a queen size MEMORY FOAM mattress on a frame and comes with all bedding. If your group has more than two campers, two additional tents can be set up. They each have a queen size air mattress that rest on the tents floor and do NOT come with bedding.
WITH ALL THREE TENTS WE CAN HAVE A TOTAL of 6 CAMPERS, unless you have little children that can squeeze into a queen size bed with you.
Once you get here, you may never want to leave - but if you do, there is so much to do in the area. We are a 45 to 60 minute drive to the bustling coastal town of Bar Harbor, which is the gateway to amazing hiking at Acadia National Park - try to get to the top of Cadillac Mountain! If you want to stay close to the campsite, the nearby towns of Ellsworth and Blue Hill are within 20-45 minutes and are great destinations for quaint shops, grocery stores and restaurants - make sure you try one of the many lobster spots.
The Schoodic Peninsula section of Acadia National Park is also nearby if you enjoy a quiet experience.
We live in a geodesic dome on a private dirt road. The address is 214 Great Pond Road, Franklin, Maine. PLEASE DRIVE SLOW!(10 MPH) The number and Tentrr sign ARE on the right hand pole at the head of our driveway. There are also several red flashers. Please DO NOT PASS OUR DRIVEWAY and continue on. The road is dead end with private property at the end. Turn left into our driveway. When you are coming down our driveway, look for a two track trail to your right hand side, between two red blinkers. Turn right and drive up to the Tentrr campsite. YOU WILL PASS ANOTHER CAMPSITE BEFORE YOU GET TO THE TENTRR SITE.
We live on a narrow private road. If another vehicle is coming towards you please find a place to pull over and let them by. AGAIN, THE SPEED LIMIT IS 10 MPH, PLEASE GO SLOW.
Water is available from a hose connected to our house. WE ALSO PROVIDE BEDDING FOR THE MAIN TENT, which has a queen size MEMORY FOAM bed, tiki torches, toilet paper, paper towels and garbage bags. We can set up two additional tents if you have more than two campers. If you don't want to stop at the store, we can also provide you with FIREWOOD for $5.00 per night, CASH ONLY. The shower is a SOLAR SHOWER, which is dependent upon how much sun we are getting. You can use the shower in our house for $5.00 per shower. However, please wear a mask in our house. The toilet is a portable loo that has a shelter around it. Please dispose of the plastic loo bag in the trash AFTER EACH USE. There are two trash cans, ONE FOR TRASH and THE OTHER for REFUNDABLE cans or bottles that you do not want. MAINE HAS A 5-10 CENT REFUND FOR MOST BOTTLES.
Please put your loo bags in with the trash.
PLEASE please please DISPOSE of loo bag after EACH use.
Yes, there are bugs. Ticks are a big problem in Maine, especially in the spring. Bring bug dope, tuck your pant legs into your socks, and check your body from time to time. Maine is also experiencing brown tail moths. In spring they appear as a caterpillar with two red dots on its back. Do not touch them! Squish them and dispose of in the woods without touching or bringing close to your face.

The Space:
Picturesque, secluded campsite in the woods, with a short walk to the shoreline of Great Pond. OUR ADDRESS is 214 GREAT POND ROAD, FRANKLIN, MAINE 04634
Guest Access:
This is an exclusive Tentrr Signature campsite. Tentrr partners with land owners to offer unique accommodations in beautiful outdoor spaces. Our campsites are off-the-grid which means they generally do not have access to electricity, wifi, or modern plumbing. Instead, they offer the chance to relax, unplug, and fully experience nature!
Your Tentrr campsite includes a 10'x12' (120 square feet) safari-style canvas tent on a raised wooden platform. Inside the tent you'll find one queen bed with a memory foam mattress. The tent is big enough for the bed plus one or two extra sleeping bags on the floor. Aside from the canvas tent, campers can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that’s provided. You'll also have a 6-ft picnic table, outdoor fire pit, and 2 Tentrr Adirondack chairs.
Max Occupancy: This refers to the total number of campers allowed onsite with your reservation.
Toilets: Every campsite is equipped with a camp toilet (we call it the Tentrr Loo). This is a simple wooden box with a toilet seat and a bucket inside. To use, line the bucket with a CleanWaste Sani-Bag supplied at the camp prior to use. Afterwards, simply tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. CleanWaste Sani-Bags use a NASA-developed gelling/deodorizing agent that helps prevent spills and keeps everyone safe and clean.
Showers: Every Signature campsite comes with a Coleman Sun Shower. The sun shower has a reservoir that holds up to 5 gallons of water, potentially enough for multiple showers. It's constructed of heat-locking material that warms the water when it's left in the sun, even on cool days.
Other Things to Note:
Please arrive BEFORE SUNSET if possible. Beware of porcupines and skunks by KEEPING YOUR PET ON LEASH. Keep food INSIDE YOUR SECURE VEHICLE or hanging from a tree to avoid racoons and BEARS! NO FOOD IN THE TENT! Please pack out what you bring in.
PLEASE PAY FOR FIREWOOD THROUGH YOUR RESERVATION. Otherwise it is CASH on delivery.
WE ARE NO LONGER PROVIDING PROPANE OR HEATER AS A FREE AMENITY. IF YOU WOULD LIKE THE PROPANE HEATER AND FUEL, IT IS $10.00 PER NIGHT CASH ON DELIVERY.
OTHERWISE BE PREPARED FOR COOL/COLD TEMPERATURES IN THE SPRING AND FALL.
Please NO LOUD PEOPLE OR PARTIES ARE ALLOWED.
WE ARE NO LONGER RENTING KAYAKS, BUT YOU ARE WELCOME TO USE YOUR OWN.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DISPOSE OF LOO TOILET BAG AFTER EACH USE INTO THE TRASH CAN.
Maine has a REFUNDABLE bottle and can bill. If you do not want your REFUNDABLES please PUT THEM IN THE OTHER BIN, not in with the trash! ALL REFUNDABLE CANS AND BOTTLES ARE DONATED TO THE ARK ANIMAL SHELTER.
Interaction with Guests:
Upon check out, you should leave-no-trace of your stay and be sure your campsite is returned to its natural glory! While Tentrr does not charge a cleaning fee, we do expect campsites to be left how they were found. After you check out, take everything you brought in and be sure to leave your trash at the designated location.
If a Tentrr Host submits an incident report after your stay that details evidence of trash or damage to the campsite or the host's property, Tentrr reserves the right to charge a minimum cleaning fee of $50. Just make sure to follow the Camper Manual posted at your campsite and you'll be set!
Reservation Modifications/Cancellations: Please note the terms of the cancelation policy as they are outlined in your confirmation email. Your Tentrr Host is unable to change or cancel your reservation on your behalf, and they are unable to waive any cancellation fees (if applicable).
