Knubble Bay Camp (KBC) is located in heart of beautiful mid-coast Maine in the town of Georgetown. KBC is the Appalachian Mountain Club’s only waterfront, self-service facility on the Maine Coast. The property has spectacular views of the water and hosts a 1,500 sqft, two-story, post-and-beam cabin with two decks and sleeping for up to 15 people. If you prefer to sleep under the stars, there is a pair of tent platforms and ample open space around the cabin. A few steps from the cabin, stairs lead to a beautiful sand beach where it is possible to launch kayaks or canoes. When you book a stay at KBC, the entire cabin and property are reserved for your exclusive use. (Maximum rental party size is 15.)
KBC is completely off the grid with solar powered lights, propane refrigerator, propane oven/stove, and a composting toilet. The kitchen is stocked with all the necessary utensils. Water jugs with spigots are provided to get fresh potable water from the outside well with a hand pump. A wood stove provides warmth and ambiance. Sleeping arrangements include a main floor room with a double bed and upper bunk, open area on second floor with 9-10 cots with mattresses, and two futon couches in common area. KBC is a carry in/carry out facility and sorry, no pets.
If you are not a kayaker or canoer, there are more than enough things to do including hiking, sightseeing, local attractions and restaurants to enjoy a lobster.
KBC is rented to one group at a time and is reserved for their exclusive use. (Maximum rental party size is 15.) Check-in is 2:00 PM and check-out is noon. Parking, fresh water, and the boat launch are for the exclusive use of cabin renters and Beal Island campsite renters. Unlike other AMC facilities, the KBC property is not open to day visitors. Parking, use of the launch, etc. is allowed only between check-in and check-out of your rental stay. Please visit the KBC property only during your rental stay.
Adjacent to the cabin a set of stairs leads to the beach where you relax and enjoy the view. From the beach you can launch your kayak or canoe and tie up when you return.
A large open concept main floor includes a kitchen equipped with everything you need to prepare meals, a dining area for everyone in your group and two seating areas.
An ample supply of firewood fuels the wood stove providing warmth and a cozy environment if the temperature drops.
A large bedroom off the main floor has a bunk with a double below and a twin above. Don’t forget to bring your own pillow, sheets and blankets.
Above the main floor is a large sleeping area for up to 10 people. Windows provide a cool breeze off the water, ample light and beautiful views.
If you prefer to sleep outside the cabin under the stars, there are two tent platforms, a large grassy area, and a pine grove, all with spectacular views of the water.
Two decks provide a comfortable place to relax, read a book, or socialize. The views are spectacular.
Don’t forget to bring your “sun shower”; warm it in the summer sun while you enjoy your day exploring the area or paddling the waters around KBC. At the end of your exciting day, enjoy a hot shower in the enclosed and private outdoor shower then relax on the deck and watch the sailboats cruise by bathed in the glow of the late afternoon sun.
Create great memories of the Maine coast at Knubble Bay Camp.
