The Best Camping Near West Poland, Maine

We stayed for July 4th week and had a blast! Daily activities for adults &amp; kids. The pool is nice and has a great little playground next to it. It has a very rustic feel but the facilities are clean, updated and inviting. In their rec Hall they have pictures of activities over the years! Lots of repeat families that come back year after year. Also, the campground is on a Pond so you can go swimming or rent a water toy!

Great place to stay with a family 

We had a great time at Poland Spring, the campground was nice, our site was reasonably spacious and very well located. The staff were great and there were awesome programs and activities for kids every day. The campground had a nice, very clean pool and playground area, as well as a rec hall outfitted with board games etc for the rainy days. Location is great, in easy driving distance of Freeport and other attractions in the area. Bathroom facilities were clean and well maintained. We'll definitely stay again. 

Great rustic campground

This campground has numerous activities to keep the whole family occupied (pool, rec hall, volleyball, baketball, and bocce ball). The waterfront offers a beach and a place to put in your boat (paddle or &lt;10hp). A friend and I camped here not for the family fun, but because we wanted to be able to slip into our kayaks for an early paddle with the loons, bald eagles, and herons. Had an amazing experience when loons took off from the far end of the lake and came in right beside and over us for a landing. We visited in late August and enjoyed seeing mature and immature bald eagles, too. In addition to kayaking in the morning, we also took a drive to Weld to hike Tumbledown Mountain.

We tent camped in a loop where the sites were wooded and close together, but others are well suited to larger rigs and offer full hookups. The noise you hear will largely be the sound of kids and families having fun. Generators are not permitted. Bathrooms are clean The gate is is secured; plan to arrive by 9pm for check-in. If you're tenting and don't need electric, sites 101-106 offer slightly more seclusion and are close to the water.

Family friendly campground on Maine pond with eagles, loons and herons

The family and I stayed at Poland Spring Campground for 8 days this August. It’s a family campground with activities for kids but make siblings share arts and crafts materials if the activities director doesn’t plan ahead. (Lots of crying from my youngest because she wanted to make one herself and showed up to the activity 15 minutes early, yet, got her materials yanked out of her hands when another child showed up 15 minutes late). 
Very strict 4 adult, 4 child per site rule so forget about having even paying visitors. Quiet time is 11 (even talking!) they will force you to go to sleep by 11 if you’re not COMPLETELY silent! Practically destroyed my camper getting in and out of the campground thanks to the way they tell you to get to your site (unnecessarily making me loop through the whole damn place instead of taking the straight shot in) Trees and roots everywhere making it impossible to take turns and forget about kids on bikes! I cleaned so many wounds during our stay from my kids falling off their bikes thanks to the landscape. Really weird dirt there also, it’s like a clay of some sort and caked to the bottom of your shoes and made a mess all through the camper no matter what I did. A couple of us went barefoot a lot and they are still treating a weird rash that developed on the bottom of their feet. 
We will not be going back. The only reason I gave them a star at all is because of Riley in the front office. Long walk to the “beach” no matter which campsite you book. No place to lay out so leave your beach chair at home. Bathroom on my side of the campground was disgusting! So many bugs and spiders and the clay dirt was all over the floors even right after they cleaned. 

Less than average 

This campground had friendly staff. The Arcade was dated and empty. No activities when we were there. 

The play ground was a little tikes plastic play structure. The Beack looked more like a boat launch and was similar in size. The swimming area was raked and the bottom was sandy. The " dog beach" was not big enough for 2 people. 

The site was average size and sandy, lots of recent water damage to the campground was evident. The sites are backed by wire chicken fencing so my daughter could not play with neighbor children. 

My husband said the bathrooms were clean. The pool liner was worn out. 

We left for most of the time, 110.00 for two nights was affordable.  

I will not return.

Affordable, Website has dated pictures. 

Very affordable prices! A big pool and also a lake to swim or rent a boat! Very family friendly (including dogs!) there is a store and playground and plenty of area to explore!

Family woodsy getaway

Very clean, lots of daily activities for the kids. Nice lake and dock space available, super friendly and helpful staff! Definitely will return!
