What you need to know with COVID-19 this winter

BSP is open for winter camping as of December 1, 2020

“During Winter 2020-21, Baxter State Park (BSP) is following public health guidance and making every reasonable effort to make your stay safe–and we cannot do it all. We need your help. Vigilance against virus transmission comes down to individual responsibility.”

Items of note:

• “Bunkhouses will be booked as single-party only, as opposed to booking by individual space. A single-party refers to a family, or a group of friends and/or family that know each other.”
• “If you or someone in your party is not a resident of Maine or an exempted state, you must complete a Certificate of Compliance form per the state’s Keep Maine Healthy Plan.”
