Knubble Bay:

Not directly affiliated with the Maine AMC Chapter, Knubble Bay Camp and Beal Island, located on the tidal Sasanoa River, are favorite destinations for outdoor enthusiasts of all ages. Open to the public for rental, the cabin at Knubble Bay Camp and the 64-acres of Beal Island are ideal locations from which to explore the marvels of Mid-Coast Maine.  AMC’s Knubble Bay Camp and Beal Island
