Poland Spring Campground

47 RV Sites, 8 Tent Sites

On the wooded shores of Lower Range Pond in the Oxford Hills of western Maine, Poland Spring Campground offers a lakefront camping experience rooted in classic New England simplicity. Located near the historic town of Poland—famous as the birthplace of Poland Spring water, one of America's earliest commercially bottled mineral springs—the campground pairs a beautiful natural setting with enough on-site recreation to keep the whole family busy for a long weekend or well beyond. The surrounding forests, clear lake water, and unhurried pace set the tone from the first morning. Wooded RV sites come equipped with picnic tables, fire pits, and free WiFi, providing a comfortable base that balances connectivity with the camping experience. A swimming pool offers an alternative to the lake when the afternoon sun peaks, and a well-stocked snack shack handles the inevitable post-swim hunger. Boat rentals—kayaks, canoes, and paddle boats—make Lower Range Pond immediately accessible even for guests who didn't bring their own watercraft, and the boat launch is a convenient put-in for those who did. A recreation hall stocked with board games provides a social gathering spot on rainy days, while an arcade keeps younger guests occupied when outdoor options are limited. Planned activities run through the season to round out the schedule. Lower Range Pond is the quiet star of the property. The lake supports a healthy population of loons—their haunting calls a reliable part of the morning soundtrack—and bald eagles nest within viewing distance of the boat launch area, making early paddles a genuine wildlife event. Great blue herons work the shallows with characteristic patience, and the forested shoreline adds a wildness to the water that contrasts pleasantly with the campground's well-maintained amenities. Morning mist settling across the pond surface while the forest drips with dew is a particular Poland Spring phenomenon worth waking up early to experience. The surrounding region adds substantial depth to any stay. The Poland Spring Preservation Park interprets the fascinating history of the famous mineral water operation and provides scenic grounds for a short walk. Poland Mining Camp offers guided excursions to three working mineral mines—guests keep whatever specimens they find—making it a popular detour for rock hounds of all ages. Oxford Casino and Oxford Plains Speedway provide entertainment options for those inclined toward gaming or motorsports. The greater Oxford Hills area connects to a broader network of lakes and outdoor recreation, and Portland—Maine's vibrant coastal city—is within forty minutes for a day trip. Poland Spring Campground is a warm-weather operation that books up quickly for summer weekends, particularly for lakefront sites and the cabins closest to the water. The combination of a beautiful Maine lake, reliable wildlife encounters, and enough on-site activity to fill several days makes this a strong choice for families and outdoor-minded campers who want real substance behind the scenery. Reservations well in advance are worthwhile for peak season dates. Book early, arrive at the lake's edge, and let western Maine do what it does best.

Two Lakes Camping Area

43 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 2 Tent Sites, 2 Onsite RV/Trailers

On the shores of Hogan Pond—177 acres of western Maine freshwater with direct access to 147-acre Whitney Pond—Two Lakes Camping Area in Oxford combines the specific appeal of a Maine lake campground with a programming calendar, fishing quality, and site range diverse enough to serve families who want organized entertainment alongside serious anglers who came specifically for the bass. The campground's themed weekend calendar, eleven fish species, beachfront sites, paddleboat rentals, and camp store make it one of the more comprehensively developed lake campgrounds in the Oxford Hills region, and the combination of Hogan and Whitney Ponds gives the fishing options more depth than a single-lake property can provide. Accommodation ranges from primitive tent sites through full hookup 50-amp RV sites, with some positions directly off the beach giving the most waterfront-oriented guests immediate access to the pond's edge. RV rentals and rustic cabin rentals provide alternatives for guests who travel without their own camping equipment, and all sites include a fire ring and picnic table. The camp store—stocked with ice, wood, snacks, and groceries—handles provisioning needs, and a snack bar provides quick-service food for guests who don't want to cook. A game room provides indoor entertainment, and full laundry facilities serve the extended-stay population that Maine lake campgrounds reliably attract from June through August. The property hosts themed weekends throughout the season with live music, carnivals, beach parties, and seasonal festivals that keep the social calendar varied and give repeat-visit families something new to anticipate each return. Hogan Pond's fishing is the campground's most significant draw for the subset of guests who measure a lake campground by its fishing quality. Eleven fish species populate the pond, including Large and Smallmouth Bass of exceptional size—bass exceeding seven pounds have been caught here consistently enough that the campground specifically references the numbers—alongside Pickerel and White Perch that round out the catch diversity. The free boat launches serve guests with their own boats, and paddleboat rentals provide families without watercraft immediate water access. Swimming in the lake from the campground beach, canoeing and kayaking in the pond's coves, and fishing from both the shore and the water constitute the complete aquatic activity calendar that a quality Maine lake campground should provide. The Oxford Hills region of western Maine provides the wooded, lake-dotted landscape that defines Maine's interior character—a landscape of working forest, granite hills, and the hundreds of lakes that Maine's glacial geology deposited across the western part of the state. Sebago Lake State Park, one of Maine's most popular natural areas, provides hiking, swimming, and the largest lake in western Maine for guests who want to supplement the Hogan Pond experience with a larger water body. Sunday River Ski Resort in Bethel, the White Mountain foothills, and the Poland Spring mineral water heritage of the surrounding Oxford County landscape provide the regional context for non-fishing day trips. Two Lakes Camping Area is open seasonally through the Maine lake camping season, with the busiest period from late June through Labor Day. Beachfront sites with full hookups fill earliest for summer holiday weekends and themed event weeks. Reserve early for the peak camping window, bring the fishing gear and a sense of the organized chaos that a well-programmed Maine lake campground delivers at its best.

Point Sebago Resort

8 RV Sites

Sebago Lake is the largest lake in southern Maine — a 46-square-mile body of glacier-carved water that supplies Portland's drinking supply and draws summer visitors from across New England with its clarity, its sandy beaches, and the particular quality of Maine light on open water in July and August. Point Sebago Resort commands a full mile of sandy beachfront on the lake's north shore, combining that natural foundation with an 18-hole championship golf course, a full marina, and multi-generational family programming that brings guests back across many summers and makes it Maine's premier lakefront camping destination. Spacious RV sites with full hookups ring the property with ADA-accessible facilities and direct beach access alongside modern camping conveniences. The marina provides watercraft rentals for fishing, sailing, kayaking, and lake exploration, and nightly family entertainment, snack and tiki bars, adult happy hour, and live music through the season create a social calendar rarely short of activity. Vacation cottage rentals and glamping options make Point Sebago equally appealing for guests without their own RV, and the all-ages atmosphere — genuinely welcoming from toddlers through grandparents — reflects the multi-generational nature of the resort's repeat-visitor base. Pets are welcome. Sebago Lake's setting is undeniably beautiful in a way that photographs struggle to capture: clear, cold water that provides drinking-quality swimming conditions, surrounding pine forests and hardwood hills, and the distinctive quality of Maine's summer light that makes the lake feel like its own separate world from the rest of New England. The mile of sandy beach gives Point Sebago a resort character that goes well beyond typical campground expectations, and the 18-hole golf course on the property adds a dimension that lake campgrounds rarely provide. Sebago Lake State Park, just one mile away, extends the outdoor recreation beyond the resort's boundaries with hiking, picnicking, and additional swimming areas along the lake's eastern shore. Range Ponds State Park provides more sandy beach access and pristine picnic areas within easy driving distance. Portland, Maine — the culinary and cultural hub of northern New England — is less than an hour south, with the Old Port neighborhood's acclaimed restaurants, craft breweries, lobster shacks, and art galleries making it a highly recommended day trip during any Point Sebago stay. Point Sebago Resort operates from May through October, with July and August filling well in advance each year. Waterfront RV sites and cottage rentals are the first to book each season, so securing a reservation early is essential for any peak-season visit. A September stay at Point Sebago that combines clear-water lake swimming with a Portland lobster dinner and early fall foliage color on the surrounding Maine hillsides represents one of New England's most satisfying end-of-summer itineraries. The shoulder months of June and September offer the same beautiful lake and full amenity access with fewer crowds and more comfortable temperatures for golf, hiking, and paddling on the water — conditions that returning guests often rank as the most enjoyable of the entire season.

Standish, ME

Family and Friends Campground

34 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 1 Park Model

In Standish, Maine—in the southwestern corner of Cumberland County where the forested hills of the Sebago Lake watershed create the freshwater recreation landscape that has made this part of Southern Maine a summer destination since the 19th century—Family and Friends Campground provides a wooded, community-centered retreat with a swimming pool, hot tub and sauna, recreation center, game room, bar, laundry, and a full spectrum of site and cabin accommodations including large cabins, park models, standard cabins, and RV and tent sites, within reach of Sebago Lake's exceptional fishing, boating, and the outdoor recreation inventory of one of Maine's most productive and beautiful freshwater systems. The campground's name reflects its operating philosophy—a gathering place where repeat guests become genuine community members over multiple seasons. The campground's accommodation range extends from primitive tent sites to park model cabins with the full residential amenities, creating flexibility for the variety of travelers that a Southern Maine campground near Sebago Lake attracts. A swimming pool and hot tub and sauna provide the essential warm-water recreation alongside the natural water access at nearby Sebago Lake, and the recreation center, game room, arcade, and organized activities maintain the entertainment variety that keeps families engaged between lake excursions. Horseshoes, ping pong, and billiards fill the casual social hours; planned activities through the season create the communal programming that turns a campground stay into a genuine vacation. A general store with propane fills, a bar, and laundry handle daily supply and practical needs. Standish occupies the western shore of the Sebago Lake watershed in Cumberland County, in the Maine interior landscape of mixed hardwood and conifer forest that separates the Portland coastal metropolitan area from the White Mountains' New Hampshire approaches. The Saco River watershed and the Sebago Lake basin together create the hydrological character of the area—a network of lakes, ponds, and rivers that drains the southern White Mountains' precipitation through Maine's western lake district toward the Atlantic. The forest cover of northern hardwoods, white pine, and hemlock creates the classic Maine woodland character that campers come from the urban Northeast specifically to inhabit. Sebago Lake, Maine's second largest lake at nearly 12,000 acres, provides the primary outdoor recreation anchor for the Standish area—a deep, clean lake (one of the purest large lakes in the eastern United States) with a landlocked salmon and lake trout fishery that has been famous among New England anglers since the early 20th century. Sebago Lake State Park on the lake's north shore provides the swim beach, boat launch, and camping infrastructure of a full state park within the same lake system. The White Mountain National Forest begins roughly 30 miles northwest in New Hampshire, providing the hiking trails, waterfall access, and the Presidential Range scenery that makes the western Maine-northern New Hampshire border one of New England's finest outdoor recreation corridors. Family and Friends Campground operates seasonally from Memorial Day through Labor Day in Maine's summer camping window, with August the peak month for lake-based recreation in Sebago's warm-water season and July Fourth the most heavily booked single weekend. The campground's mix of accommodation types makes it a flexible choice for extended family groups that include both RV travelers and guests who prefer cabin accommodation, and the pool and recreation center ensure that rainy Maine days don't derail the vacation experience. Reserve your site, standard cabin, or park model at Family and Friends Campground and let Southern Maine's lake country and the Sebago watershed deliver the quintessential Maine summer.

Jellystone Park at Androscoggin Lake in Leeds, Maine, offers 105 RV sites, eight cabins, and five tent sites across 150 acres with half a mile of private lakefront, carrying 30 and 50-amp full hookups and rigs accepted to 60 feet.

One hundred five sites span standard, standard RV/tent, standard lakefront, deluxe back-in, and premium pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The lakefront category is worth requesting. Eight cabins and five tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with a gated entrance controlling access. The lake carries the recreation. A boat ramp, boat docks, and beach give direct access for boating, fishing, canoeing, and kayaking, with a water park, outdoor pool, and inflatable water toys besides. Mini-golf, a disc golf course, jumping pillow, gaga ball, gem mining, arcade, craft room, recreation center, sports courts, volleyball, and basketball fill the grounds, with golf cart rentals, on-site dining, food trucks, and live music through the season. Pets are welcome. Androscoggin Lake sits in central Maine's western lake district — clear glacial water, loon-haunted shorelines, and mixed boreal forest. Spring and fall bring reduced rates, though attractions run weekends only. Summer is the peak — reserve well ahead.

Riverbend Campground

23 RV Sites, 2 Tent Sites

On 1540 Route 106 in Leeds, Maine—twenty miles west of Augusta in Androscoggin County where the Dead River borders the campground's west and south perimeters before flowing to Androscoggin Lake, creating the river-to-lake waterway connection that makes Riverbend's water frontage the most practical multi-water-body recreational access on the inland Maine camping circuit between Portland and the Kennebec—Riverbend Campground by Modern America Campgrounds provides water and electric RV sites with 50, 30, and 20-amp service, tent sites, waterfront positions, a swimming pool, free kayak rentals, and the Dead River access for fishing, kayaking, and canoeing that the campground's river-bordering configuration makes immediate and unhurried. The free kayak rentals and the river's direct access from the campground's perimeter are the two details that define what the Riverbend waterfront position actually means for daily recreation without leaving the property. Water and electric hook-up RV sites with 50, 30, and 20-amp electric options, tent sites, and specifically designated waterfront sites provide the accommodation range from full-hookup convenience to the direct-river proximity that the campground's Dead River frontage makes its most sought-after positions. Each site includes a fire ring and picnic table. A swimming pool offers the controlled aquatic recreation option when the Dead River's current or temperature makes pool swimming more practical than river swimming. A handicapped-accessible bathhouse with free hot showers, on-site laundromat, camp store, playground, sports equipment, game room, and a 30-by-60-foot covered pavilion available for group events and entertainment provide the resort infrastructure. Horseshoe pits and a basketball court extend the organized outdoor recreation options. Complimentary WiFi is available throughout. Free kayak rentals—the specific amenity that most genuinely distinguishes the campground's value proposition from a comparable non-waterfront Maine campground—make daily river paddling available to every guest at no incremental cost. The Dead River bordering the campground is the specific Maine inland waterway that the Leeds area's geography creates at the confluence of the glacially carved landscape's drainage patterns. Wide and deep relative to the shallow tributary streams more common in central Maine's rural interior, the Dead River provides the flat-water kayaking and canoeing that Maine's moving-water canoe culture values in a river whose pace allows leisurely observation rather than the technical demands of Maine's whitewater-active rivers. The river leads to Androscoggin Lake one mile east, where guests can access the lake's boat launch for dock rentals, paddleboarding, and the open-water experience that the enclosed river channel doesn't provide. The central Maine countryside surrounding Leeds provides the four-wheeling trails and golf courses that the campground's proximity makes available as half-day supplementary activities from the river recreation base. Augusta—the state capital and the most compact state capital city in the United States by area—is 20 miles east, providing the Maine State Museum's natural and cultural history programming, the Maine State Library, and the Blaine House executive mansion's architectural character as a half-day cultural excursion. Riverbend Campground is open seasonally through Maine's camping season. The spring fishing season, summer kayaking and swimming calendar, and fall foliage color that transforms the Dead River's wooded banks with the northern hardwood color that central Maine's maple and birch forest produces in October represent the three demand peaks. Reserve the waterfront site earliest, claim the free kayaks on arrival morning, and let the Dead River's unhurried flat-water character earn what Leeds, Maine, looks like for campers who found it.

Sun Retreats Old Orchard Beach

12 RV Sites, 3 Cottages

At 3 Old Orchard Road in Old Orchard Beach, Maine—in York County where the seven-mile arc of beach sand backed by the historic wooden pier, the arcade strip, and the seasonal resort community that made Old Orchard Beach the most popular beach destination on the Maine coast since the late 19th century have sustained the boardwalk-resort character that Gulf Coast beach towns with more recent development haven't preserved—Sun Retreats Old Orchard Beach, formerly Wagon Wheel RV Resort, provides RV sites, vacation cottages, a heated outdoor pool and hot tub, a splash pad, an arcade, go-kart rentals, golf cart rentals, themed weekends, and the organized family programming calendar that positions the resort two miles from Old Orchard Beach Pier's sandy beach and carnival atmosphere. The two-mile beach proximity, the go-karts, and the heated pool create the on-property recreation alternative to the Pier's commercial strip that keeps guests on-site when the beach crowds build at midday. RV sites with full hookup connections, vacation cottages, and homes for sale serve the full spectrum from nightly resort guests to permanent residents in the Sun Retreats mixed-use community format. A heated outdoor pool and hot tub provide the aquatic recreation across Maine's variable summer temperature range, where an unheated pool would be uncomfortably cold on the overcast and cooler days that even July in Maine produces with regularity. A splash pad extends the water recreation to the youngest guests without the depth concerns that the pool raises for toddlers. An arcade and go-kart rentals fill the rainy-day and evening entertainment calendar that a Maine beach resort needs for the inevitable afternoon storms and the post-beach hours when families want continued activity without driving to Old Orchard Beach's Pier. Themed weekends with organized activities and golf cart rentals for navigating the resort property complete the summer programming infrastructure. Basketball and volleyball courts serve the active recreation need. Old Orchard Beach Pier—two miles from the campground—constitutes one of the most intact boardwalk pier resort environments surviving on the New England coast: the 475-foot wooden pier extending over the surf line with souvenir shops, fried dough and lobster roll vendors, and the specific carnival-resort character that the late Victorian coastal resort industry built at the southern Maine beaches before air conditioning and interstate highways redistributed the New England summer vacation geography. Palace Playland's historic seaside amusement park at the beach's northern end, with rides dating from the early 20th century operating on the same oceanfront lot they've occupied since the amusement park era's peak, provides the most complete surviving example of the New England coastal resort entertainment tradition. Portland—20 miles south—provides the cultural and culinary programming that makes Maine's largest city a complementary day trip from the Old Orchard Beach base: the Old Port District's brick-lined restaurant and bar streets, the Portland Museum of Art, the Eastern Promenade's harbor views, and the Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth. Sun Retreats Old Orchard Beach is open seasonally through Maine's beach camping calendar from spring through fall. July and August represent the Old Orchard Beach peak when the Pier, the beach, and the resort fill simultaneously. Reserve early for the summer peak, plan the Pier visit for a morning before the crowds build, and let southern Maine's most intact boardwalk resort town earn the beach vacation character that the wooden pier and the arcade strip have been delivering since the summer trains first brought Boston families to Old Orchard Beach in the 1870s.

Spacious Skies Walnut Grove

90 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

On 599 Gore Road in Alfred, a small York County community in the interior behind Maine's Kennebunk and Ogunquit coastline, Spacious Skies Walnut Grove delivers a family-friendly seasonal campground with easy access to Southern Maine's most beloved coastal and cultural destinations—from Kennebunkport's lobster boats and summer resort atmosphere to Old Orchard Beach's boardwalk and the Portland arts and food scene 45 minutes north. The campground's full-hookup sites, seasonal options, cabin rentals, retro RV rentals, pool, jump pad, and free Wi-Fi serve the regional camping community from its May opening through Columbus Day in the accessible interior of one of New England's most visitor-rich states. Full-hookup sites with water, electric, and sewer service plus water-and-electric-only sites accommodate RVs up to 60 feet, and each site includes a picnic table and fire ring. Sites with cable TV and 50-amp service serve larger motorhomes, and rustic cabins and retro RV rentals provide roofed accommodation for guests without their own units. A swimming pool, jump pad, playground, and recreation hall provide the family entertainment infrastructure that makes Walnut Grove a destination rather than simply a transit point for Southern Maine coastal travelers, and clean restrooms, showers, a dump station, and free Wi-Fi complete the practical support list. Alfred's geographic position in the York County hills—inland from the Atlantic coast but accessible to both the Kennebunk River estuary's lobster boat harbors and the Saco River's freshwater recreation—gives the campground access to the full range of Southern Maine's outdoor experience within 30 minutes of the site. Shaker Pond, nearby, provides kayaking, paddleboating, and the still-water fishing environment that gives campground guests an on-area aquatic option without the traffic and parking competition of Maine's beach town recreational infrastructure. ATV trail access in the Alfred area extends the recreation menu into the off-road vehicle community that southern Maine's quiet interior hills serve particularly well. Kennebunkport, about 20 miles southeast, provides one of the most appealing small New England coastal towns in the region—Dock Square's galleries, boutiques, and seafood restaurants alongside the Kennebunk River's lobster boat harbor and the scenic Walker's Point address that has made Kennebunkport one of the most recognizable place names in American political history. Ogunquit, famous for Perkins Cove's seafood restaurants and the Marginal Way's dramatic cliff walk, and Wells Beach, with its expansive sand beach and Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge's salt marsh ecology, complete the southern Maine coastal circuit accessible from Alfred's campground base. Spacious Skies Walnut Grove operates seasonally from May through Columbus Day, with the summer months from late June through Labor Day representing the peak demand period when Southern Maine's coastal campgrounds fill to capacity and inland alternatives like Alfred become valuable in their availability. The fall foliage season in September and October provides the most visually spectacular conditions for Maine camping, with the mixed hardwood and pine forests of York County turning red, orange, and gold in a leaf display that the campground's wooded lots frame beautifully. Maine's spring season offers the Atlantic coast's best whale watching and the least-crowded conditions for exploring the lobster boat harbors and lighthouses that define the Maine coastal identity.
