My sister worked at Ben & Jerry's when they first started out in downtown Burlington. She would come home and talk about some of the crazy concoctions that they would try in developing their flavors. She was a little bit "hippy" like Ben & Jerry so she had a good time there!

[@jackfoster8319]

Acadia and Bar Harbor are tremendous. Everyone in our crew want to go back. rained 4 out of 5 days but temporal clearing made it worth the effort. Amazing lighthouses abound. Our view on Cadillac was breathtaking and clear. Never had an issue with any campground or Park Staff.

For the slide, get a right angle attachment for your drill & a socket adapter ✌️

[@irenehinojosa6629]

We were just there and changed our tickets due to weather, so glad we did the views are incredible! What you were looking at was sea and some of the islands. I would tell anyone that visits is to use the free bus system. When we were there we were unable to see many of the areas because there was absolutely no parking. The buses are free - use them!

[@GratefulGlamper]

The buses were great and it’s always nice to have a break from driving. Thanks for watching and glad you got to enjoy and see Acadia!

[@janetfolkerts5827]

I'm torn between the lobster and Ben & Jerrys' --but so happy you could experience both. Thank you for sharing your natl park experiences..

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks for watching

[@despinaraizes4757]

I grew up spending my summers on the coastline of southern ME. The coastline is rugged and beautiful. My mouth is watering for fresh ME lobsters directly harvested from the sea that Charity and Ben were enjoying. Bar Harbor is a favorite place. Thank you for sharing. Happy travels.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks for watching

[@nanlindstrom8352]

Love Acadia and Bar Harbor. I camped there for years as my daughter was growing up. Beautiful area.

[@tomballard4794]

Glad your Maine trip turned out ok. Our trip was fogged out. It was so thick you couldn't see across the parking lot. But we took a schooner ride which was great.

[@pamiejo7778]

I LOVE MAINE AND VERMONT BECAUSE OF YOU GUYS TYSM !

[@maryhight6030]

I loved going to Maine and all New England area. It's been years.❤️

[@GratefulGlamper]

It’s very beautiful there! Thanks for watching

[@farmgirl-nursedoc]

My home states! I grew up in NH and ME. I have never seen that many tourists there! Hope you loved the glimpse you caught!

[@GratefulGlamper]

It was beautiful but super busy. Thanks for watching

[@lisaawild]

Your kitty has such a great purr motor!

[@mikemanjo2458]

Great job! Thanks for bringing us along! Jane in SC ❤️ 🙏

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks for watching!

[@dalemarshall9736]

Ooh, love Lake Champagne campground. My son lives in Randolph and we have stayed there many times, usually in the same row as you although our favorite spot is about the 3rd on from the road

[@GratefulGlamper]

Such a beautiful campground

[@pamking8137]

Just came back from Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire last month! What a beautiful area. Stayed a week in each state and hiked and visited all we could! We also stayed at Harley’s Point but wasn’t too impressed with the cost of miniature golf! CRays was awesome for lobster!

[@1Suzeyq2]

Cadillac mountain at sunrise… amazing! There wasn’t timed entries when we went 😢. Stayed at Hadley Point also, didn’t have full hookups - hated those quarter showers. Was hoping they got rid of them by now! We’re due another trip up!

[@GratefulGlamper]

We totally want to go back at some point soon. But if we stay at Hadley’s we will definitely try for the full hook ups! Thanks for watching

[@Pandaman38363]

Maine looks like so much fun!

[@GratefulGlamper]

It really is! A must see place at some point in the journey. Thanks for watching

[@mylibertyvan5650]

Oh no! I just started following you and realized you are making the videos I plan to make - well maybe. You are doing such a great job I don't know if it's worth my effort. Thanks for showing us around Arcadia National Park. I will be visiting New England in two weeks and can’t wait. 😎🚐🥾

[@GratefulGlamper]

Safe travels

[@nedawilmhoff3599]

Brings back memories of our trip there. Stayed in Bar Harbor and the campground looks familiar and I wasn’t impressed but it was clean and local. Don’t remember there being other choices. We were there in the 90’s and no timed entry thank goodness. We had a beautiful clear day but the drive up was scary. Went from Maine to Coopers Town.

[@GratefulGlamper]

👍🏻

[@jamieandwesalexander277]

Another great video, guys, thank you! Misty rain is pretty typical for Maine, but it is a very beautiful state. Maine lobster is the best! How much Ben and Jerry's were you able to stuff in your freezer?

[@GratefulGlamper]

Unfortunately our RV freezer doesn’t keep ice cream frozen well. So, we had to just enjoy what we could eat while we were there

[@fvsmith]

Ohhhh I love lobster, crab and rainbow trout! Ohhhh that view is so beautiful!

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks for watching 💙 We LOVED the 🦞 too

[@fvsmith]

@@GratefulGlamper You’re video was greatness! I can’t wait to follow in y’all’s tire tracks! I’ve taken your advice and got some separate, breakdown containers and several other things. Prepping as I go.

[@AndrewLarrimoremassachusetts]

That's typical Maine Coastal weather - never know when you will be fogged in - I grew up on the Coast of Maine.

[@darrellmelton1215]

We went to Cadillac Mountain for the sunrise. It was indeed spectacular.

[@StamperWendy]

I thought of you, today, when I saw an RV pull into a long driveway, in my village, that leads to a courthouse parking lot, that has free parking. I thought, Now that's a smart RVer, and thought of your videos. (Cape Cod, Mass.) Our New England weather saying is: if you don't like the weather, just wait a minute, but, unfortunately, that literally just means that it absolutely does what it wants, at any time. I'm glad you got to see the mountain! Take care, gg fam!

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks! You take care too!

[@Indigowings2008]

Loved her reaction to “Sweady Balls”! My kids cracked up over that one too!!

[@GratefulGlamper]

It was a funny moment!

[@meridethhendry5733]

You guys are so fun!

[@planbrv]

We have so much respect for the Park Service, they do such a fantastic job. I just don’t know what they’re smoking with the whole “see Thunder Hole at high tide” advice. We tried about 10 times and found it better around low tide. The cave was usually underwater at high tide and made no noise at all. Again, the Park Service is fantastic! Not sure about this advice, though.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Good to know. Thanks for watching

[@jackfoster8319]

Thunderhole lived up to its promise.

[@mikemanjo2458]

Great idea! I love building teamwork! (Jane in SC)❤️🙏🏻

[@musikbuf42]

Give the kiddo some LOBSTER 🦞!! She says in a small voice, “can I try? . . . um, can I have some?” Or was it soup she wanted? 😉Anyway, so cute…. Thanks for the great content. Really enjoying it. 🚐 💜

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks for watching! And yes, the kids all tried some lobster 🦞

[@TrimansWife]

We are starting to plan our summer 2023 trip up the east coast from Florida up into Deep River, Ontario. Arcadia is definitely on our bucket list. And Maine, for lobsters and Oysters! Vermont looks beautiful so adding that state as well. Anywhere else we should see? First camping trip up the east coast.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Our route took us from FL to Maine as well. Check out the past 5 weeks of videos where we share some must see places along the way

[@TrimansWife]

@@GratefulGlamper I have saved several and will start writing things out soon! Thanks!

Sooo awesome.... TFS Shelly from Colorado 😉❤️

[@dalemarshall9736]

My son and daugher-in-law were up at Acadia camping last week and they took a plane tour over Acadia and they said they could not believe how many islands there are out there!

[@craftytraveler9238]

Thanks for the video. I want to go to Acadia Park next May. Where did you camp? How long was the shuttle ride? I travel with a dog too. I heard there are a couple of trails where a dog can go.

[@GratefulGlamper]

We show where we camped in this video and there is a link for the campground in the description. Thanks for watching

You were so close to New Brunswick, next time come on over.

So how many more states do y’all have left to see. I’m so jealous

Just 3!

When were you guys there? My brother and his wife and kids(PlanB RV) just left there.

[@GratefulGlamper]

We were there in July (last month)

Penn State University does a 2 week in person course on ice cream making. If you can the Creamery on the PSU campus sells the dairy products including cheese and, most importantly, ice cream.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Very cool!

[@ocny4468]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the campground! We'll be headed that way next year and appreciate the honest opinion. Another great video!

[@GratefulGlamper]

Happy to help share info about where we’ve been. Thanks for watching and happy camping.

[@ocny4468]

@@GratefulGlamper ---you've become my favorite YT channel. We are in the Hudson Valley, NY, and love that you've come to the Northeast. So many channels focus on the Western, Southwest, and Southern states. We do realize that travel can be a little bit more complicated in the Northeast but so worth it. Thanks again for doing what you do. ❤

[@matildamatilda7458]

Soooo…did I miss something or are you still working your way through NH and MA?

[@teressarenslow5992]

I am wondering if the shuttles are wheelchair and handicapped accessable?

[@GratefulGlamper]

Yes, they were!

[@pattievans7342]

Wish they had a foldable mattress!

[@deborahmower8539]

It didn't look as though Thunder Hole was at it's best that day, but it's always a beautiful place.

[@GratefulGlamper]

We walked away calling it “plunger” hole because it sounded more like a plunger vs thunder 😂

[@janespanoramicrvadventures652]

Maine soup! All that fog is kinda normal and it will burn off typically. I live 25 miles East across the bay.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Good to know!

[@C3Voyage]

One big trip for a few months or full-timers with kids OTR for the unknown future?

[@GratefulGlamper]

While we don’t always know what the future will hold, we do try to plan. We live RV life very much the same way as Marc & Trish from KYD where we have a vacation rental/home base and also our RV to live in.

[@janespanoramicrvadventures652]

Ten years ago a friend’s daughter fell in and he jumped in for her at Thunder Hole and they both died.

So sad 😭

Hey y’all

FOG!🌫😔

[@johnsondrapery]

Just a thought and a touch of constructive criticism, I really like your videos and your content. You are part of a great community, and you DO add so much to,it. However your thumb nail pics make me think of fish bate. Thy are always so dramatic and full of “Oh my God, what do we do now?” type of content. You really have a great channel, and I truly mean no harm in this post.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@kristibunny1620]

We skipped Ben and Jerry’s when we were in the area because they don’t support police.

[@esthermcgough3995]

Ben & Jerrys needs to come out with tru KETO ice creams

[@GratefulGlamper]

Yes!

[@unpackonceanddone]

I wouldn't step foot in a Ben and Jerrys or buy their ice cream anywhere. They are too political and one sided!

[@Thatcntrygirl1]

Me Either for that same reason !!

[@donnabaardsen5372]

Well that's ridiculous, considering how many business owner's have all kinds of beliefs, political and otherwise. Keep going down those rabbit holes, and you'll have to live like hermit's. I had a friend like that, and she's now not only miserable, but no longer enjoys much of anything.

[@vince8705]

Let’s hear it for Ben and Jerry’s!! Best stop in America! Thanks guys now I can’t get Lobster out of my head…🦞🦞🦞🦞🦞🦞

Mmmmmm, 🦞🦞🦞
