Spencer Bay Campground

I didn’t make it to the sites. After about a 40 minute drive on an unpaved road I had to turn around because the road got worse and I was afraid of breaking down. I drive a jeep so I didn’t think I would have trouble but I am unsure how others were able to make it on this road. Besides the potholes, the road became incredibly narrow at points. After finding another spot and looking at the map I didn’t see any other road that could be used to access this spot. If you’re going to venture to this site definitely give yourself plenty of daylight to get there safely.

Wow ! On the way to our camp site on Spencer Bay we were greeted by moose (cow) feeding in a bog , just 400 yards from camp grounds .... out of the 30+ sites...only 8 other rigs / campers in or out during our stay ..... loones , ducks , a Bald Eagle , maybe the same cow (?) @ same bog later in the stay & a bull moose sighted during out travels around the bays of the lake..... gravel roads are rough on East side area of Moosehead Lake & the logger names differ from the map we picked up a tourist welcome center just south of Greenville..... pdf map right side of this web page : https://www.maine.gov/cgi-bin/online/doc/parksearch/details.pl?park_id=59

Scouted here to check whether we wanted to move our 24 ft TT from nearby Lily Bay SP. First thing we saw was a large political flag with an obscene slogan flying above a sign with instructions to check in with camp hosts. Ugh. About 6 other campers there, most with cluttered sites and appeared to have been there for more than the 2 week limit. The 38 sites are numbered, in mostly open space, and lined with large rocks around the sides. A few sites are right on the lake shore. No privacy between sites. Google satellite view gives a clear picture. The road here is pretty far down logging roads, far from any hiking or other activities, so this would mainly appeal to folks who are boating and fishing. Even then, it's pretty sketchy.
