Discover Cobscook Bay State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips

One of the nation’s oldest parks, Cobscook Bay State Park is on a small peninsula of volcanic soil and sediment that extends out into Whiting Bay. Originally a part of Moosehorn National Wildlife Refuge, Cobscook Bay State Park was split off in 1964, as a part of a change in Maine’s legislation. Moosehorn (and Cobscook Bay) was first created in 1937 using funds from the Federal Duck Stamp Program. The creation was engineered by President Franklin D. Roosevelt after he summered on nearby Campobello Island. He was so entranced by the wild, fiery coast that he felt it had to be protected.

Getting Outdoors

Though densely treed, Cobscook Bay State Park is surrounded by pounding, wild waves on all three sides, providing plenty of opportunities for birdwatching. Thanks to easy access to both salt and freshwater, thousands of different species of birds reside in this park or descent for a visit on their annual migration. A shortlist includes the Atlantic Puffin, a few types of plovers, great gray owl, and even a gyrfalcon (the latter two are threatened). There are a few short hiking trails, one of which follows the shore for a significant distance.

Camping at Cobscook Bay State Park

In this far-flung corner of Maine, the country roads are narrow and winding, often lacking a safe place to pull over. When you search for an RV in Washington County, be sure to find a campground or RV park that will help you make memories with the family.

Exploring the Area

It’s easy to think there isn’t much to do other than hike and fish in Maine. The wee little towns that dot the coastal region all have something to offer an intrepid traveler in an RV rental. Lubec disputes Eastport’s claim that they’re the easternmost town. Lubec is home to West Quoddy Head Lighthouse, which is a historic site. Built-in 1808 (and rebuilt in 1858), visitors can tour the keeper’s quarters, ascend the winding, tight stairway to the lighthouse, and learn how the lights were operated in the old days to guide boats into or out of the bay. Wander the walking trails and search for the elusive pitcher plant. Local art is on display at the visitor center, where they can be purchased.
