Awesome stay

Our stay at The Shop was very comfortable and convenient with great hikes all around the area and close proximity to Acadia National Park. The host was very friendly and got us all set up immediately. We appreciated the warm hospitality!

Fantastic stay!

Such a great, convenient stay! This was our first experience with Boondockers Welcome, and our host made everything so easy—communication was easy and timely, and we couldn’t have asked for a more convenient location. Thank you!!

Acadia Np

Great stay at the shop!!! Mr Tucker was very hospitable! We had water, electric and sewer hook up. Didn’t spend much time in the rv since we were checking out Acadia NP. Very close to the park...10-15 mins drive. We will be back!

Super convenient, close to everything!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the shop! This location was extremely convenient to access many local attractions including Bay Harbor and Acadia 😊👍

Great stay!

We had a wonderful stay in the secondary spot. Quiet and incredibly close to Acadia. Very grateful to MrTucker for his hospitality.

Great spot close to Acadia NP

I greatly appreciate how detailed the host’s instructions were upon arrival! He sent me videos of everything I needed to know. I never got to meet the host, but I am so thankful for such a lovely experience getting to be so close to the park.

Grateful

Can’t thank MrTucker1050 enough for being a host. Perfect out of the way spot yet central to all the area has to offer. Especially since most campgrounds are closed this time of year.

Great place to Explore from :)

Thank for hosting us and giving us a great place to explore from I hope to see you on the road exploring and I enjoyed talking with you :)

Great stay

Very generous people. Thank you again for a wonderful weekend stay!!

Great location - easy place to park

Mr. Tucker 1050 was so accommodating -- he even sent us videos to show how to get to his location and where to park. Couldn't have been nicer! It was super easy to roll in and out and get on our way to Acadia. We would definitely stay here again if we're in the area!

Quiet stay at a central location on MDI

Very accommodating host, offered us several amenities and advice regarding our van. Site was level, dry and included electric.
Thank you for a peaceful night!

Self checking was easy. Good communications

This was a perfect stop in wonderful bar harbor. I had my motorcycle in tow. Wonderful stay. Eric responded often to my changes. And finally stay. Quiet clean and very accommodating. Hope to be back

Terrific host!

We very much enjoyed our stay with MrTucker1050 who provided us with a quiet, level spot to park to sleep at night AND ran electric cord and even a water hose to the overflow site. It got chilly at night and we greatly appreciated the option to run a little heater in our small campervan.
Thanks to this wonderful host, we were able to drive to spend enjoyable days beside the ocean and quiet nights at his location. Highly recommend!

Very Convienient Location and Super Nice Host

My stay with MrTucker at The Shop was much more than I asked for :-)
Very safe and convenient location and the host was so caring and thoughtful. He really goes out of his way to make sure you have everything you need. I am very grateful for his kindness and hospitality. Thank you!!

Wanted to stay longer

If time had allowed, we would have stayed longer in this lovely location. Our host was very helpful and welcoming. Not the "usual" for a great spot, which is part of the charm. The secondary spot was quiet, relatively level, and safe from prying eyes, and accessible to the area's attractions. The spot required me to pull around and back in (or out). Easy enough in a 20' class B. On site dump, electric and water. WiFi is weak in this spot, but my hotspot worked fine. I hope I find my way back to this gorgeous location, excellent spot, warm host, and friendly dog soon!

Everything we needed and a fantastic location.

We had a great stay at The Shop. Our host was there upon arrival to say hi and help us get situated. The setup is great. Not the most picturesque (we expected that), but very functional and the location is wonderful for exploring the area. About 1/2 mile down the road is an amazing Lobster place (The Travelin’ Lobster) and practically next door is an artist named Ernie. He is a sculptor and has some amazing copper welded whimsical pieces done in a steampunk style. He’s been doing it for decades (85 years old) and was doing steampunk before steampunk had a definition. Very cool stuff. Thanks to our host for opening up his place to allow us to experience Bar Harbor, Acadia, and Desert Island.

Super Location to Explore Acadia

This location couldn't be better for exploring Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, and all of Mount Desert Island. It is only six minutes from the park entrance. Our host provided full hookups and some excellent advice about where to get lobster. It is a working shop and storage facility, so sometimes there is some activity. The site we had was a reasonably level gravel pad. We were very impressed with the location and with our host. He called us when the previous Boondockers cancelled and offered for us to come in early if we were in the area. He saved us from a night in the Walmart parking lot! We will try to stay again when we are in the area, but I can see that this will be a very popular boondocking location.

Beautiful spot

Had everything we needed, water, electric , and wifi! Tucker was very friendly and got back to us extremely fast! Highly recommend!

Wished we stayed longer,

Our stay was wonderful, but short. We had planned to stay two nights, but the weather was changing with high winds expected, so we headed inland. Great spot to park our RV and our host was quick to arrive to show us all the hook ups. Highly recommend this spot to explore Mt. Desert Island!

Perfect for Exploring!

Great central location to explore all MDI has to offer. Cannot thank Mr Tucker enough for allowing us to stay at his shop.
Very helpful in getting us set up with water & electric. So thankful !

Best host on BHI

Great provider for your needs at this wonderful vacation area.

All You Need on Mount Desert Island

MDI is one of the most popular areas on the East Coast.
This host's location is very easy to get to and is a safe haven within twenty-five minutes to the downtowns of both Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor.
Our host happened to be there to greet us, he help us park and point out full hookups. We had a couple great conversations with MrTucker, an all round nice guy that is very busy and unbelievably talented!
We had perfect weather for hiking and were grateful for the time and location that afforded the opportunity to tour the area more than we ever have in the past. We hope MrTucker will accept our next request to stay sometime in the future!

Convenient and accommodating.

Generous and pleasant owner. Will return as soon as possible.

Lovely night’s sleep

We were greeted upon our arrival and offered electrical and water hookup, as well as dump station - none of which we needed.
After dark, the road noise was minimal and we slept well.
Thank you for a great night’s sleep in a safe location!

Great hub to visit Acadia!

Great location and truly a pleasant surprise. Enjoyed visiting Acadia and the surrounding area. It is centrally located and easy to find and also included hookups. The brewery and BBQ place just down the street was delicious. Thanks so much for your hospitality.

Great no hassle site on MDI

Mr. Tucker again allowed us to stay at the best Boondocking site on MDI. Although the site is close to Bar Harbor, one can hear little road noise. The hosts certainly respect your primacy. Would stay here every week if we could.

Great Stay

Thank you for a great stay. Everything was as described.

Great spot in Bar Harbor

Nice little corner, not too far from downtown and Acadia. Full hookups, which was fantastic. Good communication and instructions. Thank you!

Great place to see Acadia National Park

We really appreciated this little space for checking out the national park. MrTucker1050 was kind enough to send us videos on where to park and where the sewer and electricity are located, and he provided an adapter for the electricity The space was quiet and secluded at night, and the weather was awesome.

The only downside about the spot was it was a little rough turning off the road, as the street was recently paved and the roadworkers left a big drop off. Just go slow when you are turning in or out of the location, otherwise, your cabinets will be a mess :)

Wonderful Location and Wonderful Host!

Thanks so very much for an awesome location to spend day-tripping through Bar Harbor. All the hookups were a welcomed bonus, never expected, but really appreciated! Our host came by each morning, although we missed him once because we weren't up yet. We hope he knows how very appreciative we are and hope to be back someday. Love ❤️ Boondockers Welcome!
Best, D&J

Great Place for Visiting Bar Harbor!

Perfect spot for all Mount Desert Island has to offer. Easy to find, within a few miles from the entrance to the island. Found all the hookups available, electric, water and a dump point. Our wonderful host was very accommodating. He saw to everything including WiFi if we needed it. It certainly met our needs. If you need any info on the island, he's the guy! Looking forward to staying here for a few more days!

Great parking spot near the national park

We have a self-contained rig, solar, no grey or black water. It was very nice that our host offered an electrical hookup and a place to dump tanks. Although our host couldn’t be at the site to greet us, he sent a video describing where to park. Wow. The parking spot was quiet..

Thank you, MrTucker1050

We are grateful for MrTucker1050's offering to stay at his place. Sadly, prolonged nasty weather interrupted our stay so we had to alter our plans before we could stay. However, MrTucker1050 provided detailed and very helpful videos and instructions for arrival and everything a camper could need. Much appreciated in a fantastic location! Thank you kindly, sir!
