We went Saco river tubing here with a bunch of other families. The employees were friendly and accommodating. The experience was great, everyone had a great time. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a good tubing spot.

Had an absolutely wonderful experience at this campground today. We were there for a 17 mile adventure down the Saco and it was a splendid time! Campground was well maintained, Porto potties along the river were some of the cleanest I have seen and well maintained. Jason, One of the camp owners, was incredibly friendly, funny, helpful, and gave great advice. Definitely a family friendly atmosphere and a wonderful time! Would go back in a heartbeat.

Hands down the best campground experience I have had in years. The hosts and their staff are incredibly helpful, warm and kind. They treat you like old friends from the moment you set foot in the office. The campground is well appointed with a store, game room, laundry, flush toilets, porta potties that are cleaned/sanitized multiple times a day, huge field with play sets and shade trees, is dog friendly and of course, has river access. I think the real secret to their success though is the staff. Jason, Tori and the staff were amazing, and you can tell just from the way they talk, that they love what they do. Their enthusiasm and warmth is catching and you start forming ties to folks at the campground immediately. It's no wonder people stay here seasonally, I surely wanted to! Truly this gem sitting on the banks of the Saco is worth visiting for as long as you can manage. Thank you much to everyone for the amazing experience!

Amazing little campground! Definitely a hidden gem. The owners and staff are super friendly and they make you feel like part of the family. There are lots of activities for the whole family or you can just chill on your private site. Great for RV's and tents campers alike and it's located right on the Saco River! The pricing is extremely reasonable too!! We already have plans to go back there again!!

The water looks murky. Is it okay to swim in ? Other parts of the Saco are crystal clear. Just curious what this part is like. Is it squishy like a lake at the bottom ?

Hi Amy! Great question- Our river is for the most part sandy! There are a few spots that are either deeper or have plants/trees, but for our part of the river, it is sandy and we have guests walk right out across at some points during the summer when it's low. The river is a constant change in depth so there are certainly times it will be murky (mostly spring or if we get a substantial amount of rain). The tubing run is also mostly sand. Hopefully this "clears" things up!

What's the river depth now?

Depending on where you go in. The deepest I've felt was just under my neck and I'm 5'4.
