    The owners, Cindy and DJ, are working their butts off to keep this campground running and are the…read morefriendliest nicest folks around. Most sites are seasonal and folks have kept things clean and neat. We stayed 7 nights and were in site 2 (by the office) then in site 29 (in the fields). Going off season (late Sept - early Oct) is best as this campground is on a beautiful lake for swimming and kayaking (which we did and saw eagles and loons), but, could get pretty crazy busy in summertime. Bathrooms are in need of an upgrade but there was plenty of hot water! We would stay here again if passing through, lots to explore with Moosehorn Wildlife Refuge near by and St. Stephen New Brunswick, the chocolate capital of Canada !

    This is a beautiful campground on a swimming lake which our kids loved. We didn't have a view of…read morethe lake from our site, but it was not far to walk to it. The reason I give this 5 stars is the owners. They were exceptional! We came to this campground on our way to Canada because our Heartland RV frame fell apart on the highway. We limped into this campground since it was the closest one we could find. They put us in a spot that was easy to get into and let us stay as long as we needed while we sorted things out with the RV. It turned out the RV was totaled. We are full-timers and had to move out of it and leave it stored there. The owners were so kind and patient with us while it was stored there for months while we tried to get some resolution with Heartland (which never happened), and they did not even charge us to store it because they knew we had enough problems to deal with. I am so grateful to the owners of this campground. They were like angels to us in our time of need. Thank you Keene's Lake, you have no idea how much we appreciate your help. In my reviews I always mention how the cell coverage is since we work remotely. Verizon did not work well here at all because it is so close to Canada and our phone and hotspot kept roaming. Our T-Mobile phone and data worked better but it wasn't a very strong signal.

    Rob and Jared, Thank you!!! I had just a great experience canoeing the St Croix River with you…read more Our group was not the most experienced, but you were both so patient with us. You took all the time that was needed to make us feel comfortable. You didn't rush us through anything and were so helpful when we struggled to get the padding right. Your passion for guiding was clear in every interaction. We may have had a few spills, but it was a wonderful experience. The rapids were fun and your efforts to make sure we felt prepared to take them on each and every time we encountered them was so appreciated. If you are looking for a fun canoeing adventure with some incredible, patient, and professional guides, you will find it here. I hadn't spent much time in a canoe before this and, now, I can't wait to get back in one!

    Terrible customer service, unresponsive, and unprofessional. Don't waste your time. We reserved 2…read morekayaks to be delivered to our cabin. It was a hard process to get in contact with anyone. Once we finally did, they took our card and drop off information for the next day. Well, they never came. Tried multiple ways to get in contact, and once we finally did through Facebook, we were told that we weren't on the books and they were out of office. Later that evening we were contacted by a woman who was extremely apologetic and promised next day delivery.... Well that never happened and we have not heard from them since.

And "I don't think you can get there from here" was heard by another. There's no quick way to Leen's Lodge. Ok, there is a floatplane that gets you there quickly from Bangor. But you have to get yourself to Bangor, first. Driving it's two hours from the airport. But it is worth every bit of effort to get there. Leen's Lodge is a gem on the edge pristine clear waters of West Grand Lake in the heart of the northern Maine wilderness. The lodging is rustic - it is cabins on the lake. But they are clean, quaint, and comfortable. The service and food are top-notch. The proprietors, Scott and Kris Weeks, and family, along with a few extra staff provide an experience you won't ever forget. Dinner - 5 stars. The first night I had the most amazing, perfectly seasoned, tender lamb chops with freshly baked homemade bread, wild rice, asparagus, and dessert was local blueberry pie. Other entrees included maple glazed salmon, filet mignon, and fresh Maine lobster. Breakfast - You cannot beat it. Blueberry pancakes with local maple syrup and thickly sliced bacon. My morning order "Wendy, make whatever looks good today." I was never disappointed. But you are not just coming here for the food. It's an epic outdoor experience - the quality of hunting and fishing is among the best in the world. We fished and caught as many big perch as we wanted, plenty of smallmouth bass, and even some land-locked salmon. (I won't mention that my fishing buddy hooked an eel - that did not get in the boat.) All of this with epic views while bald eagles and osprey soar overhead. The fishing guides are amazing and make the experience suitable for anyone - whether you are an accomplished angler or you've never even baited a hook, you'll find what you're looking for here. I understand the hunting is even better. When you're there, don't forget to look up at the night sky. I don't think I have ever seen the stars so bright. I am counting the days until I can return to Leen's Lodge.

This campground is a little farther to the main Arcadia attractions (~30 min drive). Bring cash to buy firewood on the way to the campgrounds - sold by locals along the road. The rangers at the campground's entrance were super helpful. Bathrooms were super clean, and there was a faucet with potable water near our campsites. There are no showers if that's what you want but these were by far some of the cleanest bathrooms we've seen in a campsite near a national park. Our group campsite came with a few picnic tables and firepit grills. There was an apple tree in our site and a very cute porcupine eating the apples in the tree at night.

    Amazing. Granted, it did rain for the first 36 hours of our trip. But that isn't Acadia's fault…read more And once that let up-- WOW. The Seawall being right there (a few minutes bike or walk) is an incredible benefit of this site. My husband is an amateur astronomer and he set his telescope up at the Seawall. Even with just our eyes, we could see the Milky Way. I've never seen stars like that. Bathrooms are very very clean, which is impressive. There are no showers but there is electricity and running water. Up the road a mile there are paid showers, which my husband reports are also "clean enough" and had hot water.

We made sure that we got to the parking lot early (8 AM) on a weekday to ensure easy parking. During a past trip, we arrived in the parking lot at 11 AM and it was utter chaos. We did not want to make that mistake again. The early start meant that the trail was very quiet with low traffic when we visited in early June.

    We took an absolutely delightful, relaxing walk around Jordan Pond and is a must-do. This 3.3 mile…read morehike is relatively easy with only one small section where you have to walk/climb across some rocks (but still easily do-able). Saw plenty of kids doing this hike without any issues. It takes about an hour to do and is absolutely worth it. Beautiful views of the pond with so much surrounding greenery - it's amazing. We came when it was super foggy so couldn't see too much which was a shame, but I can only imagine how beautiful it would be in the sun. Jordan Pond House is just a very short walk away from here, and if you can make reservations to grab a bite (or a popover) to eat, you should do it. We came for a breakfast of popovers, and then did the hike. Super enjoyable experience, overall! Even if you don't eat there, they have bathrooms, a water bottle re-fill station, and a gift shop here so definitely stop by to refresh. Parking can definitely be rough here as they have smaller parking lots. So plan ahead and be prepared to have some patience looking for a spot. Overall, definitely recommend this trail as one of your hikes during your trip.
