  Lake St. George State Park Campground

  Prett lake setting

  This campground is located on the northwest shore of Lake St. George which is a beautiful spring fed lake. The closest big town is Belfast which is just 16 miles west and Augusta is about 25 miles away. The park offers lots to do like boating, picnicking, volleyball, fishing, hiking, and swimming (which is in a designated area with lifeguards in the summer months). The park has rental canoes, paddle boats and kayaks for those that don’t have their own. We visited in the summer and the campground was pretty full but you didn’t feel like you were smothered. There are only 39 campsites, most of which are reservable online. The campground is also open in the winter and offers lots of winter outdoor activities. Campsites are a mix of gravel, grass, shady, and completely open sites. Be careful which site you book because some campsites are wide open with no shade so you may not want to book those in the summer. There is are newer restrooms with showers towards the front of the campground. The restrooms and showers are together in one room so you have lots of privacy. The shower had plenty of hot water. A dump station and potable water fill are located near the entrance. Sites along the water were nice and large enough for big-rigs but many were unlevel. We thought sites 21-23 and 30 were some of the nicest. Campsites in the middle section seemed more level than the ones along the lake or nearest the road in the woods. The sites in the middle also tend to be larger and you could use as a pull-thru. Our Verizon phone and hotspot worked well and we were able to pick up a few over-the-air antenna. One of the downsides is the noise from Route 3 which is a busy road. The other is that there are no hook-ups in the campground. Each site does have a firepit and picnic table. Nearby is the Lake St. George Brewing Company which has great beer and a dog-friendly patio. Check out the little town of Liberty nearby which has a restaurant, an interesting tool store and Liberty Graphics which has tons of cheap t-shirts with cool designs.

  Boothbay Craft Brewery & RV Resort

  Great place to camp near a fun Maine town

  This campground has expanded over the years from a handful of pull-thru sites(1-5) to now a larger camping section with back-in sites. Campsites are gravel with 30/50-amp full hook-ups. There is a no hook-up Harvest Host site, if you are a member and want to stay one night. There is a laundry and bathhouse that has private restrooms and showers. The high speed wifi worked great. Other amenities include a dump station, common picnic area, and propane fill-up. We find the campsites are pretty close with not a lot of privacy between them but the advantage of camping here is being at the brewery and close to downtown Boothbay Harbor. The brewery offers great food ranging from BBQ to wood fired pizza and has a good selection of beers and also offers wine. The outside patio is a fun place to hang out when the weather is nice but they also have an inside eating area that is super cozy. We love just having a short walk home after a pizza and couple of beers. Boothbay Harbor is a great coastal Maine town with lots of shopping and restaurants. We signed up for a boat tour that took us around the harbor and out to a lighthouse. The tour was narrated and a fun way to spend an afternoon. We love the local nature preserves for hiking and don’t miss the trools at the botanical garden. Bet’s Fish Fry is delicious for fish and chips, but beware the hours are very limited so check before you go.

  Sea-Vu West Premier RV Resort

  Pleasantly surprised.

  This campground is mostly seasonal, privately owned park models, but has 45 spaces for RV’s. I was a little skeptical about staying at this campground with so many park models and seasonals but was pleasantly surprised at how nice, clean, and tidy all the sites were. They obviously take pride in how things look because the grounds and campsites were very well-kept. 

  All campsites are 50/30-amp full hook-up with level gravel pads with grassy patios, a picnic table, and fire pit. We stayed in site#702 which was long enough for our 45’ motorhome and tow car. All the utilities were easy to reach and the electric worked well. The only problem was that we were parked under a large oak tree that was profusely shedding large acorns. There are some sites that are in the open which I would definitely choose, if I came back in the fall. The campground is gated which is a nice feature. It is located a mile or so off Route 1 which means you don’t get the road noise and traffic, but still conveniently located near shops and restaurants. 

  One nice feature are the shaded walking trails in the park. While they are not super long, it is a nice change from walking the roads (which are paved). Other amenities include a decent size swimming pool (closed while we were there), a basketball court, playground, laundry, and camp store.  I thought it was a little expensive at $75/night (for full hook-up) at the end of the season, especially since the pool was closed.

  Sun Outdoors Wells Beach

  Tight sites and expensive, busy area along the Maine coast

  We stopped here in the summer to check out the coastal towns in southern Maine. There are many campgrounds in the area and we chose this one because they had a 25% off coupon (on a 7-night stay) which gave us the best nightly price in the area. However, the nightly rate was still$74/night, one reason being they charge a “resort fee” of$15/day which is ridiculous. This is a typical resort-style campground with lots of amenities (most of which we never use). But, for some people, this is a destination campground because of all the amenities- a large heated swimming pool, basketball courts, sand volleyball, bocce, fitness center, two playgrounds, 18-hole minigolf (that you pay extra for), and more. 

  The campsites in the front of the park are sandwiched between the swimming pool and Route 1 which is very busy and noisy. Campsites in the far back portion of the campground are shaded and a much quieter section. Camping pads and patios are a mix of gravel and sand. Many sites have shade and some have an astroturf patio (I think those are “premium” sites). Our campsite was in the middle section which was fairly quiet but the sites are close together with no privacy. The site was a long and level pull thru with a gravel pad and gravel/sand patio. All sites have a picnic table and fire pit. 

  There is a tent-only section and they have renal cabins. There is lots to do for families in the area including the beach and amusement and water parks. Restaurants of all sorts are nearby. You can easily walk to Congdon’s Donuts which is a Maine classic.

  Shore Hills Campground & RV Park

  Been coming here for years and always enjoy it.

  We’ve camped here for over fifteen years and always have a great experience. The campground has nice sites, water access, nature preserves and hiking within a short distance and is close to Boothbay Harbor and many other beautiful coastal Maine Towns. Since we have a big-rig, we choose to stay in the full hook-up section in the front (sites 100-149) that has long level pull thru and back-in sites. The only downside of this section is that the sites are in the open with few trees for shade and no privacy between sites. Some sites have a wooden deck on the patio with a railing around it and others have a grassy/gravel patio. RV’s 36’ or less have more choice for sites whether you want shade in the woods or waterfront. Hookups are variable (regarding electric) so be sure to check the map before picking a campsite. A dump station is located in the front of the campground. There are two bathhouses (each with laundry) that are at both ends of the park. Waterfront sites are beautiful with a view of the marsh and tidal river. Just be aware that the tides are 10-12 feet and when the tide is out, you are looking at a mudflat. There are also tent sites that are nicely wooded. Access to the park is easy off the main road and the roads within the campground are easy to navigate. The campground accepts cash or check only. There is no online booking, you either call them directly or fill out a form and mail it to them. There is a kayak launch and the campground does have boats for rent. A great amenity is the shuttle that takes you to downtown Boothbay Harbor since the parking downtown is expensive.

  Schoodic Woods Campground — Acadia National Park

  Quiet Side of Acadia National Park

  Acadia National Park is definitely one of our favorite National Parks and Schoodic Woods Campground adds to the awesome experience. This is the “Quiet Side” of Acadia which means way less crowds. The campground is divided into two loops A and B with campsites able to fit big-rigs to tents. Loop B has large pull-thru sites adequate to fit any size RV and has water and electric with sites being more open than Loop A. Loop A has a little more privacy between sites and does offer 30/50-amp electric but no water at the site. Many sites in Loop B are not level and we had a difficult time getting level in our site (B24). All the roads are paved and campsites are gravel with a large patio and fire pit and picnic table. Each loop has two bath houses, but be forewarned, there are NO showers in the campground (you have to drive to another campground nearby and pay for showers), nor is there a laundry facility. There are dish washing stations at the bathhouses with hot water. Park staff does a great job of keeping the bathrooms clean and camp hosts regularly clean campsites and fire pits. There is a hike-in tent section but, oddly, campfires (wood and charcoal) are not allowed but you can use butane. There is Wifi at bathrooms and Ranger Station. All sites have to be booked online and they will not make reservations at the ranger station. 

  We love this section of Acadia because there are far less crowds but you still have the beautiful coastline and plenty of hiking and biking opportunities. Hiking trails and the carriage roads are accessible right from the campground so you don’t have to drive anywhere. Frazier Point is a great place to launch a canoe or kayak, just be aware of the 10–12-foot tides and plan accordingly. The Musquito Harbor Brewery is a great place to go for pizza and beer after a morning exploring the park.

  Rangeley Lake State Park Campground

  Fall camping at its best!

  This campground is located in one of the prettiest places in Maine during the fall. The expansive views are magnificent! Rangely State Park is fairly small with just over 800 acres but has lots to do other than camping like hiking, wildlife watching, photography, fishing, hunting, and lots of winter sports. 

  The campground at Rangeley Lake State Park has 50 sites which are well-spaced and most are close to the lakeshore. There is not much in the way of amenities except a picnic area, playground, and a boat launch with docks(in fact, there are canoes for rent on-site). A“beach” area has picnic tables with grill and stairs leading down to the swimming area. Make sure you wear shoes because the beach is more rocky than sandy. A short-forested hiking trail (slightly less than a mile) runs from the park entrance to the contact station. There are bathrooms, showers, water fill-up, dish washing station. Two dump stations are located near the entrance and are level and easily accessible. There is also a potable water fill-up near the dump stations. There are very few sites that will accommodate big-rigs as many are short. The website and reservation system has a map which identifies what size RV fits in each site. The larger and more private sites are 23 through 48. Some sites have electric and water and some are primitive. Many sites can be reserved in advance on-line (with a two-night minimum and max stay of two weeks). The campground does have quiet hours between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m which all campers abided by. By in large, this was a pretty quiet campground with most people keeping to themselves and void of loud music and parties. A couple of things to beware of are bugs and booze. Be prepared for black flies and mosquitoes, particularly in the spring and summer. Plus, ticks can be really bad so make sure you do tick checks regularly. And, park rules prohibit use of intoxicating beverages in public areas. We did all our drinking discretely at our site and didn’t have any problems.   

  Nearby is the Height of Lands which provides amazing expansive views, especially in the summer. The town of Rangely has the largest grocery store in the area, restaurants, and some shops and a theater. The nearby town of Oquossoc has a great brewpub(the Portage Tab House) and a great little historical outdoor-themed museum which is very interesting.

  Matagamon Wilderness

  Great location Near Baxter State Park

  The location of this campground is great! It is situated on the East Branch of the Penobscot River and just one and a half miles from the north entrance to Baxter State Park and very close to Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument. If you are looking for a great place to stay in the northern Maine wilderness with great access to amazing hiking, fishing, canoeing, and hunting, this is the place for you. Matagamon Wilderness is a mix of campsites and cabins with a general store, restaurant, gas station and guide service. The staff are very friendly and extremely helpful and gave us lots of tips on fishing and places to hike. The campground is small at just over 30+ Sites which are a mix of sizes from small ones suitable for vans or tent to those that can handle bigger RVs. Sites are spread throughout the property and very rustic in their feel. Campsites along the water are the best with great views and easy water access right out your door. Other are set back and have a great sense of privacy. Campsites have picnic tables and fire pits. The tent sites have lean-to’s to protect you from the weather. Toilets are vault toilets. If you are looking for “RV Resort” type amenities, you won’t find many as this is a basic campground. There are cabins on the property for those that don’t have an RV or tent. The cabins were recently renovated with equipped kitchens, showers, gas lights, gas heat, wood stoves, and screened porches. The shower facilities had great water pressure with lots of hot water and there is a dump station for RVers. Daily camping rates are affordable at $35/night. Inside the “store” is a restaurant with delicious food and reasonable prices. They have a variety of food items for sale and delicious home-baked bread and cookies. They are famous for their Mount Katahdin Burger– which is three 8-oz angus beef patties, American cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, and mayo, on a homemade bear bun and served with chips and a pickle. The store also has a great selection of beer, including many from Maine. Another eatery is at Shin Pond Campground which is just a short drive away. 

  A couple things to note. Cell service is very poor in this area. Our Verizon phone popped in and out of service but mostly it did not pick up a signal so no phone or mobile data. If you are going to Baxter State Park be aware that there are restrictions on vehicles(“no vehicle over nine feet high, seven feet wide, or 22 feet long for a single vehicle or 44 feet long for combined units”) and dogs are strictly prohibited.
