We took route 1 from Brunswick, ME all the way to Eastport and on through New Brunswick to Prince Edward Island in July. Didn't stop at Acadia as we have been there a number of times.
Camden has a beautiful harbor with many sailboats. We stayed at Magunticook Lake Campground for Camden. There is also Camden Hills State Park about 3 miles past Camden. The State park includes Mt. Battie, with great views of Camden and Penobscott Bay. Use the toad as it's a steep climb to the top. Parking in downtown Camden is a challenge, especially for RV's, but we found easy parking On Knowlton St. about 100 yds from the intersection with Mechanic St. Free lots on both sides with the one on the left dead level if you are in the RV. Our favorite place to eat in Camden is the Waterfront Restaurant. Great scallops and tables right next to the harbor to watch the boats coming and going.
