Stayed 2 nights. On day 2 I was bitten by a dog. After reporting it to the owners of the…read morecampground, I was assured the owner of the dog was kicked out for violating the dog policy. After getting medical attention and reporting it to animal control, I find out that the person and the dog never left. Found out they were seasonal campers. So money is more important than the safety of people and children that stay there. They also didn't have any vaccination records or rabies shots. I am now on a regimen of rabies vaccination because of that. The campground also told me they would email me the dogs vaccination records to bring to my doctor. Never got a hold of me at all. Found out everything from animal control. 0 stars! Don't need to be lied to just to benefit yourself.

From my original review: "'You know what I love about this place? It's low risk, high reward.'" We…read moreoverheard an older woman tell her husband this as they approached the summit.

A decade later this is still true. If you're looking for an easygoing, very accessible way to go hiking and get some fresh air while wandering Maine's woods, take in the changing leaves of autumn or the abundance of blossoms and wildflowers in the spring, Bradbury - located just thirty minutes from Portland - is hard to beat. According to their website, Bradbury Mountain State Park was one of the original five state parks in the state of Maine, acquired by the Federal government in 1939. The mountain is open year round from 9am until sunset and offers a variety of hiking trails that range from very, very easy ("wide gradual ascents", "well packed and fairly flat") to slightly more challenging ("steepest ascent, but not difficult to hike", "areas with sharp turns"), from .2 miles to 1.5 miles (or more if you want to build your own adventure here - which is very easy to do because this state park's trails are now abundantly well marked; expect lots of maps throughout to let you know where you are AND lots of wooden signs pointing you in the right direction). You could easily do it all in one half day or break up your walk and come back another time, especially considering it's an easy, convenient mountain with an elevation of just 485 feet. Dogs are allowed on leashes, horses are allowed on certain trails. There are bathrooms. You can check out an old cattle pound. Explore for geocaches. It's a cute little mountain, and I'm so happy it's right in (proverbial) our backyard.

I grew up in Lewiston so this park is close by. I will have to take John next time we're in Maine. Lots of other trails to explore.

I had a great time staying here at my bachelorette weekend!…read more The staff members were so kind even before we arrived. They are communicative over text and phone and are very quick to answer questions about how to best use the yurt and surrounding setup. The yurt and campsite provide a super fun glamping-style experience. You get all of the benefits of camping along with some added weather protection, electricity, gravity shower, etc. There is plenty of firewood and a set of high-quality chairs around the fire pit. I would highly recommend Maine Forest Yurts to anyone looking to get away from it all for a few days - or longer!

MFY is a treasure find for those who appreciate nature. I have visited them for 5+ years annually,…read moreusually twice a year. Away from busy streets there is a lake, forest, hiking paths and of course a yurt(cabin like structure) where you can sit by the fire and enjoy reading a book or playing a game with your kids. Owners are nice and will help out with anything you need. Because it is a form of camping, call and ask what to bring, to ensure you have best chance to fully enjoy the stay. I find bedsheets and food to cook on the stove are some of the more useful and unusual items. What you can do varies by season so that is the reason i provide their contact info. Call and plan out what to bring and what to do there. Contact them to book a yurt. It is a great value and a unique experience.

Very convenient to the areas of Freeport, Portland, Harpswell, Bailey Island, Boothbay and Pemaquid. The owner is so friendly and helpful. The campground, pool area (closed for the season while we were here), and bathrooms were immaculate. There are quite a few seasonal units here but all are well maintained. Roads are gravel and in pretty good condition and wide enough to easily back in any big rig. All the sites looked to us to be wide and afforded more privacy than most campgrounds we've been in. All looked pretty level and most of the transient sites seemed to be gravel and grass. There is no on site wifi (I do not penalize a campground for not having certain amenities as wifi or cable unless it is advertised and subpar). There is also no cable but we received a strong signal with about 10 channels and no interference even in stormy weather. I would gladly stay here again and recommend it highly.

Pros: Very near Freeport (5 mins from restaurants, stores, etc.) Very, very nice staff Easy access to firewood, ice Cute amenities for kids (playground, boats for the pond, etc.) Well-maintained camp sites Lean-to options are fun Cons: Very small campground Sites are not exceptionally private; not problematic, but not private Campground is in a residential neighborhood (houses on either side of property) Reservation site is a little out of date (we reserved a site w/ water & power; had neither) Office closed on Saturdays If you're looking for an overnight place in order to spend some time in Freeport, I'd say this is perfect. If you're looking to "go camping," then there are a number of places that would be more well-suited for the camping experience. I could do a weekend, comfortably, at Cedar Haven...but any more than that would be a little much for me.

We were disappointed immediately to find that staff had left for the night at 8pm, right when we…read morearrived. The staff (possibly owner) who took my credit card and reservation info failed to inform me of a required arrival time and didn't leave any info at the gate for me. We ended up just driving in and picking a site, planning on straightening payment out in the morning. When we had our tents most of the way up, my friend noticed two syringes in the fire pit. They appeared to be insulin syringes. We also noticed the strong scent of marijuana wafting to our area several times during the night. Noise in the area escalated until well past midnight, including someone calling their dog and a couple having a nasty fight. No one enforced this. We happened to find the same staff who took my info driving around in a minivan and got her attention. She took my payment and waived my deposit since we were tenting and in so late. She pointed us to the restroom which was fairly unclean. The showers appeared to be coin-op (though they're actually not), and one was broken. I would recommend avoiding this campground in lieu of any other in the area. (If you're a touring cyclist, it is inexpensive. This is probably it's only plus.)

The tent & cabin were both very clean & comfortable. The campground community bath house (when staying in a tent or cabin w/out bathroom) was also kept clean. The cabins could use a bit more privacy - all the huge, gorgeous, picturesque windows are problematic as (particularly in the winter) there's several other cabins w/full view into your windows. It would be nice if it was more of a private / woods view than looking into other cabins. That said, my daughter & I enjoyed our time and have been repeat customers. Would give it 4.5 stars (Yelp doesn't give half star option, but I needed to account for the lack of privacy in several of the cabins in the area we were in.). Overall a great option & we'll likely be back!

What to do in Freeport? VISIT THE DESERT!…read more This has been on my list for years and it did not disappoint. I kinda found it odd to pay $21 to explore the dunes but here's what we got for the price: - unlimited train rides - Ability to wander the desert - Executed their scavenger hunt - the kids rode a massive slide (unlimited) - we explored a fair/troll maze - dug for fossils - visited an old gas station - walked through an old home - unique playground This place isn't just the desert (and I don't mean the mini golf.) It's a little hidden wonder that offer families things to do. My kids (4 and 13) were fully immersed in the experience. The oldest was keeping the youngest involved in the scavenger hunt which he loved looking for the 'red' guy. The hands on portions fully captivated them. I was worried the walking might be a lot for the little guy but he didn't complain not once. It was explorative and interesting. Keep in mind, on hot days I bet you feel it! Bring sunblock, wear hats, closed toed shoes are best and water. Also, the big blue slide in the rear of the desert shoots little ones out like a cannon! I thought he broke his arm but he was ok! You've been warned.
