Lone Mountain River Front Campground

This is my 2nd year returning to lone mountain river front camping in Andover Maine. The peace and tranquility here is tough to beat. We reserved a river front site which are primitive, meaning no hook ups of any kind. Also reserved a water/electric site. Best of all wide open field with incredible dark sky seeing. Full moon this year. Oh well. Owners here are super friendly and keep the property in terrific shape. Bathrooms / showers very well maintained . The location gives you mountain weather which can be changeable, be prepared & check forecast. Great WiFi in RV sites. Not so much on river. Site has a small store. Ice, wood ect. There is a general store in Andover called Mills general store. All in one stop. Food beverage gas fish stuff. You name it it there. The web site is well put together and easy to navigate. Prices are comparable to going rates.

Stayed 5 nights mid August 23.

stayed on primitive sites along Ellis river. very quiet and peaceful.

As most campers know last summer was about as wet as it gets so

mosquito population was a little bothersome. Camp fire wood was also 

very damp. On the one night we saw clear sky I was amazed how a dark sky

looks being from Boston area. we got chased out by rain a day early.

Fast forward to 2024 with reservations for the same site for a week in mid July

 taking advantage of free day offer for 7 night stay. Bring my 8" HD celestron this time.

 Hoping for some clear night sky for some awesome seeing.

oh ya Verizon worked well for me and they do have WIFI although weak in this area.

This location has stunning landscape, but getting there is somewhat difficult. I used a Google map to find the path, but it didn't take me to the exact address I was looking for. But that's alright, I was able to locate doodle cricket where I needed to through
