    Beautiful location and friendly staff

    This is a rustic campground in a beautiful setting. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They kept everything clean. The campground is really a base of operations for NEOC’s whitewater rafting, so in the morning and afternoon, you have groups of rafters come in getting ready for or returning from their trip. You can book rafting trips with them, and the guides who worked there were awesome.

    The campground is on a small lake, and they have a bunch of kayaks and canoes kept at the side with oars and PFDs. Sign a waiver, and you can take them out, no hassle. From the lake, there is a great view of Mt. Katahdin.

    There is a pavilion with pool tables and indoor fire pit that you can go hang out at night as well as tables where you can sit out back overlooking the lake. There’s even a pub area indoors. No camp store so make sure to get what you need in town.

    Only one issue that prevented me from giving them five stars: they advertise that there are flush toilets and showers but no hot water when the generator isn’t running. It runs for a few hours in the morning and then from about 3-9 pm. The problem is that the restroom doors are locked when the generators are off, so there are no flush toilets or potable water when the generator is off. There are outhouses throughout the campground, but that wasn’t what we were expecting. They could also use a couple of speed limit signs on the main road bc cars go pretty fast in that area.

    Overall, a great campground for any hiking or rafting in the area!

    Jo-Mary Campground

    Yea, beautiful location, but overpriced & lacking

    They charged us almost $400 for two tent sites, for two nights.  They are clearly resting on their laurels, need to hire more help for peak periods, be in the office when they need to be available and answer their phones and return phone calls, and also need to check for garbage left by previous campers and have their port-a-potties emptied way more often (gross!)

    If you can get past the price gouging and lack of attention to detail, the place IS beautiful and enjoyable.

    Nesowadnehunk Field Campground — Baxter State Park

    Great weekend camping

    Had a great weekend camping here! Camp ground is clean, pretty spread out and beautiful! No cell service, bring everything you need as the nearest store is over an hour away. If you’re looking for a nice weekend getaway, or a prefect hiking spot, this is it! Will come back again.

    Omaha Beach

    Sandy beach

    BAD road - high clearance 4WD needed. Worth the drive!! Didn’t see another person besides maintenance. 10 sites - 5 here, 2 at little Omaha and 3 beyond boat landing. Outhouse on site.

    Doraemon X

    I really enjoyed playing Doraemon X! The gameplay is super fun and full of surprises. The colorful graphics and engaging challenges make it a great experience!

    Lunksoos Campground — Katahdin Woods And Waters National Monument

    Nice location, still has the feel of being newly constructed

    Checked out these sites for an upcoming visit. Stayed down the road at Sandbank this time. If you are tenting this is preferable as Sandbank is open to RV's and is noisier.

    Some changes to regulations since Jean's review in 2021.

    No fire permit is needed if you use the fire ring provided

    First-come-first-served only for a single night. Reservations from recreation.gov are recommended for longer stays or on weekends. $8 reservation fee, free camping up to 14 days, no refunds.

    Her photo of the campground map is still accurate.
