Scout7/24/25 I just called the number listed through this site and talked to a guy who said it is closed. I have a feeling I reached his personal line.
ScoutEven had a cell signal that gave data with a weboost.
ScoutAVOID MAIDSTONE STATE PARK
Being thrown out of Maidstone because Tom thinks he can make up the ADA, threatened to call the police over nothing and threw us out.
We have been in the state parks this summer since the 9th of may missed 7 days and us and our dogs have had zero issues until Maidstone
Great a transphobic park manager targeted us over service dogs and harassed a teenager who has major medical issues, purposely not going to the sight leader and harassing a disabled teenager when isolated from the rest of our site.
Maybe I’ll post the videos here, it’s unhinged.
Our lives are worth so much more then some unhinged manager trying to make up his own version of the ADA
Throw on transphobia was the motivation, awards Maidstone as the worst state park in the system so far.
My ex wife’s 3 sisters all worked for him at basin harbor club in there younger years and he was unhinged and problematic then, I remember how elated they were to see him move on to the state parks and out of the community.
Maidstone state park horrific transphobic and disability based discrimination was the most surprising, according to Maidstone one of our service dogs is not allowed in the state parks system. Yet Kathy up in the Ilands who runs that campground with an iron fist didn’t have any problems in the 46 days I spent there to open the season………
The documentation I have is shocking, way yo cut our time short by 2 weeks and have to panic pack and flee

0 stars
It’s also alarming how the manager and the staff are excited attendance it’s down 30%, 3 of the 5 employees stating they don’t want it busy and the collective goal of the campground was low attendance for less work.
What a disgusting audited to have. I’m way over qualified to run Maidstone state park, 1/3 of side A is closed, soon side B as soon as that bath house gives out.
It’s a small place, it should be packed with Vermonters, as a businesswoman it would be ridiculously easy to pack that campground week in and week out, quickly justifying new facilities and oping back up the loop
2 years at the helm, I’d be planing a summer of renovations at Maidstone
Instead it’s going to fizzle and fail under its current management.
RangerManagement is very nice and handles problems well. Love the dog beach. I wish they had a change machine in the laundry room.
GuideNice campground, we enjoyed our site next to the cabin that our friends stayed in. One thing to note, lots of returning seasonal campers.
The campground offers lots of fun activities, such as bingo, karaoke, and live music. The new owners plan on new upgrades as time goes on.
GuideThis is a wonderful little campground. The sites are very well spaced out with plenty of privacy. Pit toilets and showers are clean. There’s even a kitchen area for dishes and a microwave for heating your meals. Firewood is available and they also deliver, although they forgot ours and we spent our overnight without a campfire. No worries, they refunded us with apologies.
ScoutJust stayed this weekend and Oh. My. God. We will 100% be back!
GuidePerfect stay if you have kiddos and dogs! There’s a playground, arcade, and beach. They offer kayak and canoe rentals. We grabbed a tent site for 3 days and it had water and electric! You get a picnic table and fire ring
GuideIt is beautifully quiet here! We are at site 2 and it’s right on the water! Good space in between sites. Lots of privacy! The light breeze coming off the mountains is absolutely perfect! Will definitely be coming back!
