RVing Acadia National Park (With NO Reservations)

We took on Acadia National Park in peak season—with no reservations, a 20-foot off-grid RV, and a whole lotta hope. Spoiler: it wasn’t easy, but it was so worth it. From scoring a last-minute site at Blackwoods Campground, to chasing sunsets on Cadillac Mountain, to dodging the crowds and tiny parking lots—it was an unforgettable 24 hours.

Also, let’s be real—we hadn’t showered in four days. And while the views were epic, the van a dream, and the tacos + coffee (my dream combo!) absolute perfection... there were a few things we really missed. Last week in our newsletter, we shared the items we miss the most when we travel light—and y’all, our RV mattress was at the top of the list, followed closely by our beloved coffee maker. We’ve been sleeping on the Signature Hybrid from RV Mattress by Brooklyn Bedding for over a year now, and it’s changed the game. Free shipping, 120-night trial, and 30% off when you use our link: https://rvmattress.com/ljmj (code LJMJ).

Come see how we made the most of Acadia—with no plan, no showers, and no regrets. And next up? We’re ferrying this little van into Nova Scotia. Let’s go!
