"We tent camped at Saco/Old Orchard Beach KOA. The staff was very friendly and when I called to book the site, they assisted in helping us pick out the nicest campsite."
"Saco is a town that has seen recent revitalization where old buildings are transformed to bustling breweries and storefronts are filled with galleries and boutiques. "
"Beautiful setting, lots of trees, bordering on beautiful marsh area. Many different types of campsites: rent, RV, seasonal RV, cottages, glamping tents and cabins etc."
"Sandy Pines is located a very short bike ride from Cape Porpoise, home of Nunann's Restaurant , Mussette, Lost Fire and Pier 77."
"Right next to the road. So yes lots of family glamping fun. But not for those looking for a more visceral Maine camping experience."
"The campsites are on top of each other all the way around. Of course, as we always find in the RV community, everyone was very nice."
"Spent three nights in a nice sized, quiet spot, on the camps’ outside loop. The park is well located, near the beach, shopping, and with access to Portland."
"This adult only campground is peaceful and quiet, with the sounds of birds and the trees being the main thing you hear - it is quite relaxing. "
$100 - $145 / night

"Extremely crowded, close sites, and heavy car traffic in walking and bike areas. Sun night was way quieter than Fri and Sat night."
"Good first: it’s the closes campground to the beach around. Quick walk to the sand and just a little further to the pier. Clean and neat facilities. Great activities for the kids."
"Nice pool; playground for kids, can walk to old orchard; or they have a bus also!"
"Our campsite was close to bathrooms, pool and playground. Staff was so kind. Kids loved it.."
"Great huge campground only a walk to the beach from one entrance. Train goes by close to sites near beach access! Most sites are gravel.. clean clean clean"
"And of course the beach was walking distance which was the biggest draw for us. If you have little ones, time your beach trips with low tide. The waves crash pretty hard at high tide."
"Best camp resort ever, clean showers, tons of area to choose where to camp, play area for kids, horseshoes for adults, store on location, best of all the most amazing staff if I could I give it ***"
TravelerEveryone was friendly. The kitchen/dish washing lean-to was a wonderful addition!! Loved that it had a coffee maker
LegendDanforth Bay has been the staple campground for my family through the years. Its rare to find a campground with so many spacious wooded sites overlooking the water. They seem to always have events & family friendly activities to keep kids entertained. I always appreceiate the onsite kayak rentals for exploring the river that runs along the campground. Mary’s mountain is a nice hike accessible from the RV/Boat storage area.
GuideVery friendly. Good size lots. A lot of seasonal campers there give this place a neighborhood atmosphere. 10 to 15 minutes to stores and other needs. 30 minutes to coast. Portsmouth harbor cruise and many small coastal pubs and restaurants. Here is the “BUT”. Wi-Fi is barely usable after 8am. And phone signal is spotty at best. Had to walk around to find signal for phone call.
GuideUsed this spot for two day stop-over to visit family nearby. Friendly and accommodating. Terrain is a little hilly and tight for large vehicles. Sights are comfortable size. We were there mid-week before school let out. Very quiet.
ScoutWe stayed here right after Memorial Day weekend, so the campground was mostly cleared out and quiet. The bathhouse was very clean (coin-operated showers), and the sites were spacious. However, with more people there, it seemed like it would feel a little crowded, with the tent sites being so close together.
This campground is also very close to a public beach and a very short drive to Darmascota, so overall, I am very happy with the location and experience!
ScoutRangers are friendly and very helpful. This is right on the ocean with the beach just over the sand dunes. The cost is $70 a night. A little high, but we'll worth the cost to be right on Hampton Beach. There is a yearly limit of 14 days. I highly recommend this park if you can get a spot in summertime. Reservations are usually made a year in advance.
RangerThe sites on the water book up quickly but they’re perfect for fishing and boating. Also, the view!
TravelerSmall beautiful campground right on the water. Away from the busy stuff but close enough to visit it if you want.
ScoutTried to ask about winter camping and the lady was wicked rude
