Moosehead Family Campground

24 RV Sites, 8 Tent Sites

Moosehead Family Campground in Greenville, ME, offers 24 RV sites and 8 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in two categories, back-in 20/30-amp and back-in 20/30/50-amp, each carrying water and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. A bathhouse with showers, a general store, a library, on-site dining, and a playground cover the essentials. Pets are welcome. The water access is what sets the place apart: a marina, boat docks, fishing guides working from the property, plus a pond, creek frontage, walking trails, sport courts, tennis, and basketball, with boating, kayaking, fishing, hiking, biking, and birding. Golf is nearby. The campground sits at 312 Moosehead Lake Road on Route 15, one mile south of Moosehead Lake and the town of Greenville — Maine's largest lake, the largest moose population in the lower 48, and the wilderness canoe routes of the Katahdin-Moosehead region. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Maine's short summer means July and August book far ahead.

Spacious Skies Balsam Woods in Abbot, Maine, offers 115 RV sites, six cabins, and two tent sites in the Maine Highlands, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet.

One hundred fifteen sites span back-in 30-amp, back-in 30/50-amp, back-in water-and-electric 30-amp, pull-thru 30-amp, and pull-thru 30/50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 75 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. Seventy-five feet is generous for northern Maine. Six cabins and two tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a snack bar handle the practical side. All guests check in at the main office and sign the terms — e-signature in advance is encouraged. An outdoor pool and beach anchor the summer, with a boat ramp, pond, and river supporting fishing, swimming, and whitewater rafting. A jumping pillow, recreation center, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, gem mining, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the rest. Stargazing and birding are exceptional this far north. Piscataquis County is the heart of Maine's wildest country — Moosehead Lake, Katahdin in Baxter State Park, and the Appalachian Trail's northern terminus are all within range. The season is short. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Big Moose Inn Cabins and Campground

8 RV Sites, 15 Cabins, 27 Tent Sites, 14 Hotel Rooms

Big Moose Inn Cabins and Campground in Millinocket, ME, offers 8 RV sites, 29 cabin and hotel rooms, and 27 tent sites, with room for rigs up to 35 feet. RV sites are back-ins carrying water and electric with a fire pit — there's no sewer at the site, so plan on dumping elsewhere, and confirm your site's amp rating when you book, since service here is lighter than a modern coach typically expects. The 35-foot maximum keeps this to smaller rigs. A bathhouse with showers, firewood, WiFi, and on-site dining are available, and pets are welcome. With 29 rooms and 27 tent sites alongside just 8 RV sites, this is a lodge and campground first. Boat and kayak rentals put guests on Millinocket Lake for paddling, boating, paddle boats, fishing, and hiking. Millinocket is the gateway to Maine's most remote country — Big Moose is the closest full-service lodging to Baxter State Park, Katahdin, and the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail. Rates for sites, cabins, rooms, and tent spots are on the booking page. Eight RV sites at the Baxter gateway means summer books months out.

Stetson Shores Campground

6 RV Sites, 11 Tent Sites

Stetson Shores Campground in Stetson, ME, offers 6 RV sites and 11 tent sites, with 30-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 35 feet. Sites come in three categories — full-hookup, beach full-hookup, and beach water-and-electric — with full-hookup sites carrying water, sewer, and electric plus a fire pit and picnic table. Note the electrical: service is 30-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management, and the 35-foot maximum keeps this to smaller rigs. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, and a dump station cover the essentials, with cabins for guests without a rig. Pets are welcome. A beach, a boat ramp, boat docks, kayak rentals, a pond, walking trails, sport courts, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, and a playground fill the grounds, with swimming, boating, paddling, fishing, hiking, birding, and planned activities. Stetson sits on 29 wooded acres on the shore of Pleasant Lake in Penobscot County, in the central Maine lake belt where glacially carved basins hold cold, clear, undeveloped water. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Beach full-hookup sites book first.

24 RV Sites, 2 Tent Sites

Riverbend Campground in Leeds, ME, offers 23 RV sites and 2 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 40 feet. The four categories are clear about both service and position: 30-amp water-and-electric transient sites, 30/50-amp water-and-electric transient sites, and waterfront versions of each. All carry water and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, propane fills and exchange, and a pavilion cover the essentials. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, boat docks, a boat ramp, and boat and kayak rentals support swimming, boating, paddling, paddle boats, paddle boarding, and fishing, with sport courts, basketball, horseshoes, walking trails, live music, and planned activities. Leeds sits at 1540 Route 106 in Androscoggin County, twenty miles west of Augusta, where the Dead River borders the campground before flowing into Androscoggin Lake — a river-to-lake connection that makes the water frontage unusually useful. A state park and golf are nearby. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Waterfront sites book first.

Jericho Gateway Family Campground

4 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites

Jericho Gateway Family Campground in Berlin, New Hampshire, offers four back-in RV sites without hookups and seven tent sites across 300 family-operated acres in the White Mountains, with a big-rig-friendly layout taking rigs up to 100 feet and a dump station on site. This is genuine dry camping at the northern gateway to the White Mountain National Forest. Four back-in sites operate without hookups, and the big-rig-friendly layout accommodates rigs to 100 feet — an unusual combination that suits large self-contained coaches. Seven tent sites cover simpler camping. A dump station serves RV guests, and firewood is available on site. Guests should arrive fully self-contained and plan water and power accordingly. The 300 acres are the amenity. Walking trails run the wooded property for hiking and biking, and the family operation means guests deal directly with the owners. The scale gives a real sense of remove that smaller White Mountain campgrounds cannot match. Pets are welcome. Berlin sits in Coos County on NH-16 at the confluence of the Dead and Androscoggin Rivers, 20 miles south of the Canadian border. The Androscoggin carries fishing and whitewater, the Mahoosuc Range offers some of the most demanding hiking in New England, and Dixville Notch's mountain pass is within reach. This is the edge of the Great North Woods, the largest unbroken forest in the northeastern United States. The campground serves the northern New Hampshire season. Summer hiking and fall foliage are the two peak windows, with foliage in late September and early October drawing heavily across the White Mountains. With four RV sites, reserve as far ahead as you can.

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.

47 RV Sites, 8 Tent Sites

Poland Spring Campground in Maine offers 47 RV sites and eight tent sites on the wooded shores of Lower Range Pond, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet behind a gated entrance.

The Maine season is short and concentrated. Summer is peak. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Wild Fox Cabins & Campground

6 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 4 Tent Sites

Wild Fox Cabins and Campground in Lakeville, Maine, offers six RV sites, eight cabins, and four tent sites across 155 secluded acres on Junior Lake, with 30-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 35 feet, open all year. A single power-and-water category joins a boat ramp, boat docks, kayak and boat rentals, and 3,600 feet of shoreline. Six back-in sites carry water and electric on 30-amp, sized to 35 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two things to plan around: the sites carry water and electric rather than sewer, and the 35-foot cap rules out larger coaches — this suits vans, small trailers, and truck campers. Eight cabins and four tent sites make this substantially a cabin property. A general store, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The park points guests to Maine's online license portal, GPS Trailmasters for ATV routes, and the ITS system for snowmobile trails. A boat ramp, boat docks, boat rentals, and kayak rentals open the lake for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, with walking trails, hiking, horseshoes, corn hole, a pond, and exceptional birding filling the rest. Offroading is nearby. One hundred fifty-five acres and 3,600 feet of shoreline for six RV sites is extraordinary. Lakeville sits an 80-mile drive northeast of Bangor into genuinely undeveloped northern Maine forest — this is remote country, with the Grand Lake chain, moose, and dark skies, and the ATV and snowmobile networks running for hundreds of miles. Summer and the fall foliage window drive demand, with snowmobile season following. Reserve well ahead.
