Northern Hideaway Outfitters

Northern Hideaway Outfitters has been running fall bear hunts in Northern Maine for over 25 years. Their property sits 50 miles from the closest town, meaning zero tourist interference and minimal technology distractions—just you, the forest, and the bears.

Guided Hunts ($2,800) Paired with experienced Maine bear hunting guides who handle the heavy lifting. They scout baiting locations, transport you to tree stands, track wounded bears, and process your kill. You get lodging in cabins, three meals daily, river access for kayaking, and shower facilities throughout the week. Limited to 12 hunters per week.

DIY Hunts ($2,100) For hunters who want to manage their own bear tracking and stand placement. Cabins provided, full access to the 136,000 acres and Big Black River for fishing. Skinning and packaging available for an additional fee. Requires a minimum group of four. Maximum 4 hunters per week.

"Very nice bait sites, everything about the hunt was just as promised." — Curtis Yingling, MD
