Lakeside Pines Campground

My family is heading to Lakeside Pines tomorrow for our 52nd year. Started going there at 14. What I love is pulling in every year to the same place like a time warp. It's comforting. Have brought 3 generations up there. Since 1972. Holds so much memories of great people great staff and an amazing 2 weeks every August. ❤️❤️❤️

Rustic simple haven amongst massive pines. But, even with 70 degree nights, it was so still and thick below the dense trees that we sweated like pigs. It rained two of those 70 degree nights, and we were dripping. The lovely breeze at the shoreline stopped there and at dusk. Our site 23 was listed as 20 amp, with a 15 amp outlet. But it had a 30 amp glass fuse in the disconnect above the plug. Most of the full timers around us had their own meters, and we got to listen to their A/C units run all night. This campground obviously doesn't want outsiders. They just want to fill every resulting vacant spot to their advantage. No refunds within 14 days, and penalties before then. Dismissive and indifferent office staff. Oh yes, pay mildewed showers as well. Don't buy into this. Keep driving, and just enjoy the public beach on your way to some other deserving and practical campground.

We should have driven around first, before we were given a tent site. We were not given a choice. At first we paid for a cabin, but I couldn’t get myself to stay there, just in bad shape and I felt our tent was probably more sanitary. Most sites were for long time residents, most had left for the season so although it looked full, it was mostly empty. Road noise was an issue. Bathroom was clean, well supplied. Didn’t use showers. The best thing was the view.

The weather was incredible. It was like summer in Maine started last week. Booked a cabin for the week and thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Lots of swimming, played some darts, took pictures of the scenary.

Not what I call camping Expensive SO many rules plus they. Have a store, which closes at 3pm and closed two days a week??? Why. Don't recommend this place.....

Really nice campground. We enjoyed staying here.

We have been coming to Lakeside Pines Campground since 1981, we missed 2 years in all of the 42 years. It's a family run campground right on Long Lake in Bridgton Maine. Our son grew up on this campground, we were living in New Jersey and after he grew up, married and lives in another state, we moved to FL and we are still coming here from FL.

If you have time to go camping I would suggest camping at lakeside pines campground

The campground is beautiful, quiet and well taken care of. A little slow for the middle of June but the staff were amazing and very helpful. The views and the experiences were great. All of the facilities were very clean, a little older and much more rustic than some other campgrounds. Every bit of our week stay was well worth it. We were even able to bring our boat over and dock it for the week. Pretty amazing place. What a great location as well only a short distance, 5 minutes to downtown Harrison, and 10 minutes to bridgton and the great old school drive-in. Thank you so much Brenda!!!

management very helpful, clean site ,well managed,,,

We used to camp at Lakeside Pines in the 1990s when our children were young. I was happy to see that it's still the clean peaceful place that I recall from those days.
