Campsite in Hancock

This location is designated for tent or small camper only. Guests must bring their own camping equipment. The campsite offers a picturesque setting adjacent to a pond, with onsite parking available for up to two vehicles. Restroom facilities are conveniently located next to the greenhouse. For those arriving after hours, please drive past the cabin, descend the small hill, and proceed straight ahead to find your site awaiting you. I anticipate welcoming you in the morning! The space This campsite is among six at True Serendipity Homestead, established by Mike and Cheryl Whitmore, spanning 25 acres with a two-acre pond. It features six tent sites, trails, gardens, chickens, and more to explore. We relocated here at the pandemic's onset, armed with a dream and a prayer to forge a new existence in the Maine woods. While most in their mid-60s might cling only to the dream, we embraced the adage that life is lived but once and took the plunge. My background ranges from lumber milling to servicing jet fighters in the Marine Corps. Cheryl, with a master's in art, is adept with tools. One summer, we processed timber I harvested from our land, and together, we constructed a small cabin, surviving the winter of 2020. The following spring, we completed the cabin and began listing our campsites on Hipcamp. In just two seasons, we were honored with second place in Maine for the best Hipcamp tent site. We continue to build: a blacksmith shop (with classes on the horizon), a chicken coop, gardens, and more. Our vision is to cultivate a haven where visitors can immerse in authentic living, proving that anyone with a dream and a work ethic can achieve such a lifestyle. Guest access This off-grid homestead offers a plethora of sights to behold. You are welcome to explore everything except the interior of our cabin and workshop. Enjoy visiting the chickens, unwinding in the gardens, strolling along the trails, and fully rejuvenating both body and mind!
