Paradise Park Resout is friendly, clean, and close to the beach.

This was my first time camping and I loved it. This campground was just down the street from Old Orchard Beach and the center of town. It’s off the beaten path which was nice. The resort has friendly and helpful workers, and it is very clean.

We pitched a tent but there were many trailers and RV’s at this campground. I highly recommend Paradise Park Resort!

Palmyra Golf and RV Resort is a quiet comfortable campground located in central Maine. It’s located about 4 miles from I-95, exit 157. As the name implies, the campground caters to golfers with an 18-hole course on the grounds.

Although I’m not a golfer, we found the campground to be very quiet and pleasant, with a small pool and walking trails. Our site was open, but backed up to a tree line, while many other sites are shaded and quite roomy. This is a great campground for us seniors (especially golfers), but lacks activities and facilities for the kids.

The camp store was somewhat limited, but there is shopping close by.

This is a really nice campground! The owners are very friendly and helpful.

Skowhegan/Canaan KOA is one of the cleanest campgrounds we have ever been to. Ice and wood are delivered right to your campsite. Since the new owners took over the campground a few years back, there have been many improvements made to the park. This is a great place for kids and adults a lot of fun planned activities! They have organized games in the pool, scavenger hunts; an arcade room, crafts, contests, ice cream socials, hay, trolley and fire truck rides, and mini golf.

We loved this place when we camped there this past fall. We plan on returning next summer!

The Saco/Old Orchard Beach KOA is a neat, clean and well cared for campground.

The interior roads at this campground were freshly graded when we were there. We camped here in May 2010 before the official season, so the pool was closed. The campground staff was very friendly and helpful. We had full hookups.

Will return to this park again.

We camped overnight at Cedar Haven in Freeport Maine in August 2009. This is a nice, clean, campground with very nice people running the place.

Cedar Haven is a relatively small campground with 58 mostly wooded sites. Each site has a fireplace and picnic table. 4 sites are full hookup (wse) with cable TV. 44 have water and electric hookups.10 are large, secluded tenting areas. The property has extra wide roads and oversized sites that can accommodate even the largest RV’s.

Wood, ice, snacks, toys, groceries and basic camping supplies are available at our store, located on the premises. Our facilities include:

Amenities include: rest rooms with hot showers, an on-site dumping service, dumping station, laundry, recreation hall, playground and a propane station. They also have one rental cabin and some RV rentals. There is a small, spring fed swimming pond with five hundred feet of sandy beach, and a float too. facilities are clean and well maintained.

We would definitely stay there again.

We stayed at Naples Campground for the first time this past August and can’t wait to go back. It is a small campground but very clean and close to everything.

The folks who own and the ones that work there made us feel like we were part of the family. It’s located in the Sebago Lake Region of Maine. The campground is fairly new… it opened in 2004.  The facilities and grounds were clean and well maintained.  They have some long sites to accommodate large RVs, and have added free WIFI, and a “Bob’s Kitchen” with a nice selection of “good food at reasonable prices”. They also have entertainment and activities, including a hayride trailer.

You are within 45 minutes to Conway, New Hampshire or Portland, Maine. It’s seconds to Sebago Lake and there is a pond behind the campground called Trickey Pond.

What a lovely place to canoe or kayak! We will be returning next year for sure!

We stayed at Lake Pemaquid in August 2009. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. They have really nice facilities and great playgrounds for the kids.

The campground has an excellent waterfront. They also have Wi Fi… but only at the Saw Mill Rec Hall. There is a large general store that carries groceries, gifts, ice, firewood, and LP Gas. Also a snack bar with a menu that includes Maine lobster and clams, sandwiches, pizza, ice cream, an outside deck and inside tables.

I do have two negative comments… First, the hot tubs always seemed to be occupied by kids and teenagers — even the tubs for adults only. Secondly, the weekend entertainment consisted of very loud music.

Despite the negatives, we would still go again.

Paradise Park Resort Campground is an older campground located within walking distance of Old Orchard Beach, a summer resort area on the southern coast of Maine. We stayed here for a few days in Mid August.

Our check in only took a few minutes. The office attendant was very nice, welcomed us on our first visit to the campground and assured us of a great stay. We were escorted to our site and were helpfully directed as we backed our 38′ Class A into our space.

As I mentioned, this is an older campground. Most of the sites here were comfortably large in their day, but couldn’t accommodate many of today’s RV’s. Not to fret, they have recently added new section in the rear of the property with larger sites to accommodate bigger rigs.

The centerpiece of this campground is “Milliken Pond”, a scenic little body of water complete with fountain where you can fish, paddleboat ($) or just sit and relax. There are several nice bench spots located around the pond.

Most interior roads are paved and in excellent condition, however there are some tight spots to navigate if you have a larger rig. The office building also houses a small store with limited grocery and camping items. Prices are a little high, but not unreasonable. A small arcade, bathhouse and laundry are also attached to the office building.

Close by is a pool with spa, a playground, shuffleboard, basketball and volleyball courts. While some of these amenities are a little on the old side, they are clean and very well maintained.

A new section of the campground, located at the rear of the property can accommodate larger RVs and has it’s own pool, bathhouse and laundry.

Every site has a picnic table and a “fire ring”. I’ve seen fire rings made out of many recycled  items… truck wheels, oil drums, but never like these. They appear to old washing machine tubs (check out the photo below). Actually, they work quite well… they just look a little weird.

This majority of this campground consists of permanent and seasonal and sites, and some look like they date back to the 60′s. For the most part they are neat and clean, but some are not and detract the the others. If you are the kind of camper that feels  seasonal sites detract from the camping experience, steer clear of Paradise Park.

Paradise Park Resort has free wi-fi. From our site in the new section, the signal was nice and strong. However, bandwidth was extremely limited and internet access was frustrating because it would come and go often. Forget typical high demand times. If you really want a stable connection, you’ll have to do it at odd hours when you’re not sharing the connection if everyone else.

Our site include cable tv but the selection was limited to about 15 channels and the signal quality was extremely poor and some channels were unwatchable.

Typically, there are always campers who can’t follow basic camping etiquette, and this campground had it’s fair share while we were there. Barking dogs, loud motorcycles and parked vehicles in the roadway to name a few.

There was one thing about this campground that really impressed us… watching the ground crew do their thing. Several of our neighboring campers check out and it wasn’t more than 5 minutes later when a crew of 4 swarmed the sites to manicure (and I do mean manicure!) every square foot. They went way beyond the call of duty here. Hat’s off to these guys!

Paradise Park is the closest campground to Old Orchard Beach. A 10 minute walk will take you to all the action. You can easily spend several days visiting all the beach attractions.

All in all, we had a pleasant stay despite few negatives.  If we ever consider another trip to Old Orchard Beach, this would be our first choice.

We visited Point Sebago Resort this past July after viewing their video brochure. The campground is located on the shores of Sebago Lake, Southern Maine’s largest lake. The property is huge… 775 acres. It’s a great setting and they have lots of amenities, activities and entertainment options.

Campsites were a little on the small side and our site was in need of some “housekeeping” once we arrived. There seemed to be a large number of seasonal campers and time share types, which takes away from our vacation experience. Oh well, we may be seasonal campers some day so I shouldn’t complain.

During our visit the office staff was courteous, but not overly friendly. The activity staff were friendly but they spent most of their time interacting with their friends rather than concentrating on activity supervision.

We plan on heading up to Maine again this fall but we don’t plan on returning to Point Sebago.
