Welcome to Bowlin Camps Lodge

Remotely situated on the East Branch of the Penobscot River serving hunters and outdoors enthusiasts since 1895.

We are a full service sporting camp open year round located in Township 5, Range 8 Maine in the last piece of real wilderness left in the lower 48 states. Adjacent to thousands of acres of the Katahdin Woods & Water National Monument lands, we offer a true wilderness experience without sacrificing comfort. Our Registered Maine Guides and staff work hard to ensure you have an enjoyable, safe stay in the “Big Woods of Maine.”

After 3 years of not raising our prices, we are now forced to markup all of our rates by 10% to cover increasing costs/inflation. Our listed website prices do not show this additional 10% as we hope this measure is temporary. We appreciate your understanding and continued patronage.
