    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Sebago Lake State Park Campground allows dogs in designated areas of this 1,400-acre park bordering Maine's deepest lake. Campers with pets have access to spacious, level sites that can accommodate tents, RVs, and camping vehicles with electric and water hookups available. Naples Campground, Naples KOA, and Loon's Haven Family Campground provide additional pet-friendly options with specific pet policies in place. Campground rules typically require pets to remain leashed at all times, with some locations enforcing breed restrictions. The campgrounds maintain clean facilities and designated pet areas, though guests should bring waste bags and portable water dishes. Trickey Pond at Loon's Haven is notably crystal clear and dog-friendly for swimming.

    The network of trails surrounding these campgrounds offers excellent walking opportunities for dogs and their owners, particularly in the less crowded seasons. Many campsites feature picnic tables and fire rings where pets can relax with their families during quieter evening hours. Staff at Naples KOA are particularly accommodating to campers with pets, providing assistance with site selection for dog owners. Seasonal considerations affect pet comfort, with early summer and fall offering more moderate temperatures for dog activities. Wildlife encounters are possible in this region, so keeping dogs leashed protects both local fauna and pets. Most campgrounds enforce quiet hours starting at 10pm, which helps minimize disturbances from barking. The area's veterinary services are primarily located in Naples and surrounding towns should emergency care be needed.

      Chocorua KOA

      Beautiful campground in the mountains of NH

      The grounds are well maintained with flowers planted everywhere. Staff is extra friendly. Bathrooms and showers could use updating but were spotless. Very pet friendly with dog park, agility equipment, dog pond and dog wash.

      Thousand Trails Moody Beach

      Consider Thousand Trails Membership for Better Value

      Consider the Thousand Trails membership when booking this site. Our annual membership fees basically covered what it would cost to camp here for two weeks.

      The campground has good proximity to Orchard Beach and Portland. However, the spots are pretty tight, and the WiFi is awful away from the registration office. We were in the wooded area, but those camping on the outskirts seemed able to utilize their Starlink.

      The dog park and pool were small but nice. The bathroom facilities were pretty good, though they weren't cleaned as often as they should be.

      Chocorua KOA

      Small, quiet family campground

      The Chocorua KOA is a great campground with super friendly staff, a variety of sites and lots of activities and things to do for everyone in the family.

      We stayed with two other families on pull-through full hook-up sites 43, 45, and 47. Although we were on the main road, we really enjoyed these sites. They were wooded and in a central location close to the playgrounds, pavilion, beach and nature trails. Site 45 was pretty narrow but the other two sites had a bit more space so we mostly used 43 and 47 to hang out. We especially loved that the pull-through road behind our sites was not a main access road so we had a nice long stretch of road that was just for us. We played games and the kids road bikes without having to worry about cars driving through.

      There are also a lot of really nice tent sites along the water, cabins, teepees, lodges and great areas for groups to camp. They are fairly strict with quiet hours so it is a very quiet campground at night.

      The facilities are nice and clean. The pavilion and fire pit area are a nice place to gather with games and a mining station to enjoy. There are two playgrounds for little and big kids. The bathrooms are quite dated but clean. The pool is freezing cold so the kids didn’t swim much. The beach area is small and not deep enough to swim but the kids enjoyed playing in the sand and water. There are a lot of options for boat rentals- paddle boats, kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, and row boats. There is a beautiful board walk that leads through the marsh to a system of short nature trails. We really enjoyed walking the trails though some need a lot of work due to fallen trees and overgrowth. There were also a lot of free activities for the kids like crafts, wagon rides and games with a full schedule of events. You really never have to leave this campground!

      This is also an incredibly dog-friendly campground with a fun dog park, a special swimming pond just for dogs and doggie day care available. This is one of the most pet loving campgrounds we’ve ever camped in and our pup loved it!!

      We had a great trip and will definitely be back!

      Sun Outdoors Old Orchard Beach Downtown

      Great Campsite

      Reservations online was super easy, and the hosts are great. They allowed me to drive around and look at the other campsites as I was needing a site with limited/no tree coverage. Plus I’m still learning how to handle my van, so was looking for a very flat spot. Bathrooms are nice and clean, the grounds are nice and clean, and the dog park is a great bonus.

      Terrace Pines Camping Area

      Beautiful camp site

      Upon arrival staff was nice. They did ask for $10 cash gate card fee. At the time of rival I did not have cash on me. They did allow me to pay it later on during our visit. As we traveled the road to our camp site I was disappointed in the condition of the roads and how tight everything is. Again, the campsite was beautiful with access and frontage on the pond. I was also not impressed with the dog park it was quite a hike from our campsite and near the office. It would have been nicer to have the dog park in the camping area. The day we were leaving we made a special trip to the atm, to get the required $10 cash fee. As we departed I went into the office to check out, return the gate card, and pay the fee. At that time, I handed the clerk the $10 and explained that I owed it. She in turn explained that I did not owe them any money as the $10 was a deposit in case you did not return the card. I was less than impressed with how that was explained at the beginning and the additional trip we had to make.

      Foothills Family Campground

      ‘Foothills

      It was an easy campground to navigate. We were so fortunate, we stayed at another campground and check out was at noon. We were sitting on the side of the foothills entrance ( check in time was 2:00), the owner allowed us to enter early. I would like to thank him very much for that. The new owners are working diligently on updating the facilities and working very hard doing it. While we were there they were working on one of the roads that got a bit washed out, and also working on updating the dog park. Campground is very clean. Only draw back was it is very close to Route 16 and some places in campground were a bit noisy. We were so happy to have visited this site!


    Guide to Naples

    Camping near Naples, Maine offers access to several lakes, including Sebago Lake, Trickey Pond, and Long Lake. The region sits at approximately 400 feet above sea level with a humid continental climate characterized by warm summers and cold, snowy winters. Most campgrounds in the area operate from May through mid-October when temperatures range from 50°F at night to 80°F during peak summer days.

    What to do

    Swimming in crystal clear water: Trickey Pond at Loon's Haven Family Campground offers one of the cleanest swimming experiences in the area. "The pond is crystal clear and beautiful. We boated over to one of the small islands to find a rope swing which provided entertainment and memories for my children," notes Angela M. The campground maintains 154 sites with beach access.

    Kayaking on Long Lake: Lakeside Pines Campground provides direct access to Long Lake. "Loons loons everywhere. Lots of wildlife," reports Jeremy G. The lake connects to others in the region through the Songo River. Rental equipment is available at most waterfront campgrounds.

    River floating: The Saco River offers gentle currents perfect for tubing. "We took a shuttle up with some kayaks - reasonably priced - and drifted back down 10 miles right to our site," shares Kristy B. about her experience at On the Saco Family Campground. Most campgrounds along the river offer tube rentals for $10-15 per day and shuttle services.

    What campers like

    Spacious wooded sites: Many campers appreciate the privacy offered at certain campgrounds. At Papoose Pond Family Campground, "The campsite was large and private with good distance between the next sites. We were on the pool/rec hall side and it definitely seemed less condensed over there than the pond side," according to Kaileigh K.

    Clean facilities: Campground maintenance receives positive reviews throughout the region. At Colonial Mast Campground, "Debbie and the others are single most helpful and competent staff we have ever run into," shares John S. The campground features an indoor heated pool that remains open year-round.

    Family activities: Organized events keep younger campers entertained. "We've been camping as a large group here every year for 12 years. Perfect spot to relax and get away from everything. Great amount of amenities and privacy," notes Amy W. about Papoose Pond. Many campgrounds offer scheduled activities including arts and crafts, outdoor games, and evening entertainment.

    What you should know

    Seasonal differences: Most Naples area campgrounds operate from May through October, with limited options available year-round. Colonial Mast Campground offers winter camping with adjusted services. "We stayed at Colonial Mast Campground 10/31/2020 to 11/1/2020. The water was turned off at our site due to freezing temps. Sewer and electric were available," reports J B.

    Site selection matters: Many campgrounds have significant differences between sites. "Lots of nice spacious wooded sites. Located on 2 sides of a road, the side opposite the lake was much nicer and more spacious. Sites around the lake very crowded together," warns Jo-Ann N. about Papoose Pond.

    Reservation timing: At Sebago Lake State Park Campground, securing waterfront sites requires advance planning. "I was lucky to score a nice site mid week just before the 4th of July," mentions Rebecca L. Most campgrounds recommend booking 6-9 months ahead for summer weekends and holiday periods.

    Tips for camping with families

    Beach access considerations: When choosing dog friendly campgrounds near Naples for family stays, consider beach quality and access. "The selling point of this campground is the lake for sure. Sebago Lake is beautiful. Beach areas were very nice for relaxing," writes Rebecca L. about Sebago Lake State Park.

    Activity schedules: Family-oriented campgrounds offer structured entertainment. "This campground is amazing. It is perfect for family camping. There is so much to do for all ages. The staff are amazing and so friendly," shares Tiffany C. about Papoose Pond.

    Site proximity: At Acres of Wildlife Family Campground, families appreciate thoughtful site arrangements. "The site was easy to access and was roomy enough for our bikes and dogs outside. The space between us and our neighbors is significant," notes Ani G. Consider sites away from main roads for safety with young children.

    Tips from RVers

    Site leveling challenges: Many campgrounds in the Naples region have natural terrain variations. "Be sure to bring extensions for electrical and sewer as a lot of sites are set up with difficult connection spots. Relatively level sites, long dirt road to get to is a bit of a problem," advises Ed C. about Acres of Wildlife.

    Access road conditions: RVers should note entrance conditions at Naples area pet-friendly campgrounds. "The road is tight so be prepared to drive close to trees," cautions Katie B. about Lakeside Pines. Some campgrounds have weight or length restrictions for larger rigs.

    Hookup availability: Full hookup sites vary across campgrounds. "Half of area is set up with RV hookups, so it nicely separates the tents from the RVs," explains Jennifer F. about Sebago Lake State Park. When booking at pet-friendly campgrounds around Naples, confirm hookup types and amperage if required.
