Poor WIFI, dusty sites, no cable poor campfire wood. When I strongly suggested to the owner to…read moreupgrade his WIFI his reply was, "No one else complained "

This is a pretty standard, affordable campground. We stayed here three nights but only spent one…read moresolid day exploring the grounds and activities. We were at a water and electric site right on the pond, which was the best part about the spot. Otherwise, you are packed in like sardines. We did not find anyone at the campground to be very friendly, both neighbors/other patrons and the (limited) staff. The guy at the office on Friday and Monday was pretty surly. The weekend staff did not impress either. Unlike other campgrounds we have stayed at, there was really no one out patrolling the grounds during the day or at night. Which is both good and bad, I guess. Good because you can basically do what you want, and bad because of, well, the exact same thing. Our area of the campground was pretty quiet the days we were there, at night we were definitely the loudest people around...and aside from our 4-year-old sometimes talking loudly/excitedly, we weren't very loud. One thing I did not like about our stay was that the campground seems to encourage and not even attempt to stop kids catching and torturing the pond wildlife, like bullfrogs, tadpoles and fish. While we were there there was a gaggle of obnoxious kids catching and killing things, both accidentally and on purpose. Yet the camp store sells fish nets to help them do those things. As an avid animal lover, I found it disturbing that the campground did nothing to deter people from abusing the wildlife, and even seemed to encourage it by selling kid-size fishing nets. Let's see, what else? The bathrooms were "eh." The floor was constantly wet and muddy. The first 36 hours we were there I assumed it was because it was raining, but the following 36 hours was pretty dry and the floors were still like that for some reason. Showers were free and had hot water, but were pretty cramped. Be prepared for lots of bugs, mosquitoes and ants everywhere. We did not try the pool or the pancake breakfast. And there were no tractor rides to be found, even though it's mentioned on their website. The main attraction here is the price and the location to amenities in Bangor. It is right next to the airport, so planes can be very loud, but that did not bother us much. It was fine for what it was/what we needed but we feel no need to ever go back.

My friend and I tried the evening moose tour in which you are driven to a beautiful 'pond' as they…read morecall it and get into 3 person canoes (two paddling, one in the middle) hoping to see moose. Their venue is closer to Bangor than some of the other outfitters that do this, however, the ride to get to the pond is at least an hour. You ride in a van and some of the roads are bumpy. The guide narrates a little, but I feel he could have done more. The home base is nice and they sell souvenirs, coffee, and snacks. They have a bathroom building with changing areas. There was lots of water on the ground there, so I wonder why it wasn't moped. Once you get into the van, there is no bathroom area (unless there is a porta potty that I missed. The scenery by the water was very beautiful and peaceful and even though no moose were spotted, it was still a very nice experience. The price was fair and there was always someone that answered the phone when we called to ask questions. Overall a great experience.

The van was full and the people in the last two rows were bounced around uncomfortably and were…read moreunable to see anything for four hours. The two exceptions were when the van stopped and we all got out. The only good seat was in the front passenger spot. At one point two Jeeps were behind our tour van for a long time, the guide made a comment about how they were being impatient, needed to respect the tour bus, and didn't let them pass us by pulling over. She kept them behind us for quite about 1/2 hour. When we finally spotted a moose 2.5 hours in and she pulled over, the two vehicles revved their engines and sped past, scaring the one moose we saw the entire time back into the woods. So we saw a moose running into the woods. The people at the back of the van saw it's butt... As we headed back to the tour lodge, another moose crossed the road in front of us, it took about 4 strides across the street... so, did we see moose? Technically, yes... was it what we signed up for and paid $74, and a four hour ride for? No! So their 89% moose spotting rate includes this... if you're thinking you want to see moose in water, munching away and you have an almost 90% chance that's not really an accurate take on this. Also, our tour guide Natalie was very nice, however she did not know much more than the average Joe- me... she wasn't particularly engaging and didn't have information that didn't pop up on any Google search, as a matter of fact, she didn't necessarily know info that did pop up on a google search... she did give us tasty brownies and water. I was able to capture scenery photos, no moose photos though
