If you don't have your own gear, they offer rentals at the main camp store, but I think they have to be returned by 5pm.
Ride 10 minutes in the opposite direction and you arrive at Goose Rocks Beach , the best shoreline beach on southern Maine.
$48 - $97 / night
We stayed At Wakeda Campground overnight during a trip from Maine back to Long Island, NY.
It seems that most of them on the coast of Maine are.
We love visiting the Kittery Trading Post (in Maine) which is a good outdoor outfitter and eating at Bob’s Clam Hut.
IT is 9 miles from Wells Maine which is on the ocean.
$29 - $55 / night
Camped here two nights in 2015 en route to Maine.
Extremely EXTREMELY well run, very clean and you will be spoiled rotten by glamping here. As such the prices are higher than other places.
$100 - $145 / night
The campground is just one mile from Old Orchard Beach and close to Route 1 which is the main corridor leading up and down the Maine coast.
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
GuideEven with our three preteens with us, this campground has an air of romance. Happy sounds of children riding bikes, peaceful kayaking, spotless bath house... nearby EcoAdventures made this Glamping trip memorable.
ScoutMore of a compound than a campground. It’s a tourist event park but great if you have kids… my particular site was for a tent and it was up against the fence where the maintenance garage was hidden. Right next to the road. So yes lots of family glamping fun. But not for those looking for a more visceral Maine camping experience.
ScoutOf the camping we did this summer, this one is the only one on my list of must return. If you want Glamping, this is the place to be. Nice wooded lots. Close to the beach. The pool is very nice. Great place to bring a family. I can’t think of anything they could improve.
GuideThis is high end camping! Cleanest nicest bathrooms and showers I’ve ever seen camping. Also fun game areas and a beautiful store which has good food too! The sites are very nice and not too close together. We tent camp but they also offer small cabins which looked adorable and glamping tents. Easy access to local trails and tourist spots. A fantastic campground I hope to return to
TravelerWe absolutely love sandy pines!! All of the staff are so friendly and helpful! I had to leave my wife and kids for a few days and they checked in on them to make sure they were ok. They went above and beyond as far as I’m concerned. There are planned upgrades over the off season that should put this place as the number one campground in Maine! We have seen the glamping sites and each is unique and special. Highly recommend at least a long weekend here. You won’t regret it!
RangerAwesome campground. 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. We stayed at site 4 in Beach Rose area. Loved it. Super well maintained, owners invested a ton in upgrades. Cleanest bathrooms and showers (individual stalls) we’ve ever seen. Great location - can walk to beach on dyke road, good hiking nearby at Steele Nature Preserve. Good road biking with shoulders on many roads. Awesome place, we would return. Note that it used to be called Salty Acres but was renamed Sandy Pines.
GuideI tent camped here with my two kids (age 6 and 4) in 2018. I think they have gotten a bit fancier since, with more glamping options (there were some gorgeous ones then too!) but tent camping there was amazing. We were deep in on a loop against the marsh, we had tree cover and it felt quiet and secluded, even with neighbors and booking relatively late so not getting first choice. Out of the craziness of town and SO close to a great locals beach. Wonderful store and facilities, beautiful pool with very natural landscaping, playground and even some simple fun activities for the kids. The very best.
GuideThis is our first visit to Sandy Pines and we are so impressed with how well groomed this property is. We stayed in the Beach Rose section and we have full hookups. We took a mid- September vacation and love how nice it is with fellow campers spread out. We are not resort campers, but this is very nice now that children are back in school. The pool is heated and very inviting. There is a playground. So many choices of cabins or glamping tents to rent. Dogs are welcome. Big rig friendly. Very close to attractions and restaurants and stores. We will be back next year with friends. We camped in our Minnie Winnie travel trailer. The Wi-Fi is hit and miss unsecured. Mostly miss.
RangerAfter paying 240 bucks for two nights and then driving on a bumpy gravel road and into a small and not very flat gravel site with closer neighbors than most state parks, I was thinking that this place was going to be my first 3 star review. Buuuuuuttttt...... then we drove 1.5 miles to Goose Rocks Beach and my kids and I enjoyed one of the best beaches I have ever experienced. Absolutely perfect beach. Then we drove past the Bush Compound and downtown into Kennebunkport. Absolutely gorgeous. Then we got back to the campground and my kids and I took our paddleboards into the salt marsh directly from the campground. Stunningly clear salt water and breathtaking scenery. This campground is all about its location, and it's location is off the charts. Don't get me wrong, the campground is nice, but just not $120/night nice. There are two playgrounds, a pool, bocce court, smashball, The restrooms are clean and plentiful. The sites are closer together and less private than I would have hoped for (though ours was better than most), and I would definitely expect paved roads for the price. That being said, this was one of our favorite places ever. Would definitely come back. After touring the campground, the salt marsh loop is by far the best and most scenic. It is mostly glamping tents down there, but there were several open sites with water and electric right on the marsh, and i wondered why those weren't an option when I booked. The seasonal sites were well kept and the clientele here overall were classy.
