Does anyone have any websites that might be able to help me plan for this trip? I'm hoping to make it a long weekend (4 days, 5 days tops) and I live in philadelphia, so I'll be driving up. Where to stay, where to hike, what to photograph (first time going, so I'd imagine I wanna hit the "hot spots" first), etc... I'd imagine there's gotta be some website with this information. I'm asking here because I'd rather have the photographers POV instead of a tourist/tourists guild type of view.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Jeremy,
You probably meant Acadia Park up in Maine right? If so, I'm also curious and have this thread on watch. |

Acadia is an awesome park, with a lot of character. We were there a couple summers ago, and loved it. Bar Harbor is really a cool town to walk around and get some good shots. Lots of fishing/lobster stuff hanging around, nice shots of boats, etc.
I really enjoyed the time we spent at the Bass Harbor Lighthouse:
Around sunset you'll find a bunch of photographers gathered on the rocks below it to get shots like that. Jordan Pond was a very pretty area. We drove up Cadillac Mountain, which has awesome views. Thunder Hole was really cool, but potentially dangerous. A 7-year-old girl was killed there two days after we visited.
Anyway... it's a beautiful park. I've become a really big fan of National Parks these last several years. |

Ok, I live about 45 minutes from Mount Desert Island. I go to Acadia about 15 times a year, all year long. I am not a website, however I can answer just about any questions you may have involving the island, or anything else near it!
