Perfect location to explore Maine. The cabin was very clean and cozy, our kids loved the loft bedroom and the playground at the camp. Thank you for a great stay!

We were there for a week. The campground was clean and well maintained. Was a little further from Bar Harbor then we expected but we had a nice time.

Clean throughout the campground. Store had everything and the food was delicious. Oh ya, the dome we stayed in was comfortable and really cool. �

Just a place to sleep as hotels were all full but was fun. Would like to take advantage of amenities if we stay again. Nice place

Most wonderful!

Good folks who run this. You have to try the New York Pizza. Plenty for the kids to do.

We loved staying here and would definitely come again.The owners were very helpful and caring. The park model we stayed in was very clean and comfortable.. We would highly recommend this KOA. Thanks for having us.

Our stay on site 70 was wonderful. We were able to have a full 50 amp full hook up site without any power shortages. The best part of this stay was meeting a wonderful couple that we will remain friends with. I would have given it a 10 except you share a power pedestal with the rv next to you which means you are close. Tight getting in to sites and campground.

We had a wonderful time and Chris and Lauren are so friendly!!!! I feel like we made new friends.

Site 122 we were not able to get enough power to run rv. After local electrician checked our pedestal he said there was not enough power to run our rig. Owner gave us permission to run generator all night. The KOA was able to get us in for the unscheduled night, but had I known we would have stayed where we were with 30 amp service.

Staff were great. Our sure was very small with no privacy, did not feel like a comfortable place to hang out. The lumber yard right next to the site was loud early in the morning. Had bad neighbors twice. Kia stuff kicked one couple out because of fighting, profanity, drug mention, etc. not a great experience for my kids, but I greatly appreciated the boldness of the staff to stand up for us.

We loved our stay. The staff is amazing.

Chris was great and helped me with my sewer hook up by driving me from the office to my site and hooked up the sewer line himself.

Awesome owners and a great place to stay

Our stay at this KOA was very nice for what we wanted (a place to use as a staging point for days in the park). However, our site was small and crowded. The motorhome next to me and I were ducking around slideouts to get to our hookups. Otherwise there were sites that were much bigger. As a stop with a pull through it works but it could be better. For a longer stay I would call ahead.

Sites are too close to each other. Some sites not level. Best is the free ice cream.

Stayed for week with our grandsons. The staff was awesome. Bathrooms and showers were very clean.

The deluxe cabin was perfect for our family of 5. Chris the owner and his team were fantastic. Everything was clean and we had no issues with the cabin. We would stay again.

The staff are friendly, very customer focused and helpful. the campground is clean and well maintained. Our campsite was clean but difficult to back into and find a level area for our 24 foot travel trailer. We discovered that the sewer hose would not drain as it had to go uphill to the sewer. Even when we backed up to drain - it would not drain. Other than our site -all was great!

Had a great couple days stay in a camper, very relaxing. I have been going to see the great folks at the Holden KOA for a few years, Chris always makes me feel welcome and appreciated. I try to go at least two or three times a year, renting the on site campers and my try a cabin next.

Location was prefect , especially if you are going to Arcadia National Park. The staff was friendly and bathhouse showers were awesome, the best I have ever experienced.
Aug 11, 2021
The Bangor/Holden KOA campground was well kept and the bathrooms were clean and up to date. The staff were personable and helpful. It would be nice if the pool were heated but that was our only negative. Otherwise all positive. We will probably come here again since we enjoyed our stay.

Staff was very friendly and willing to give advice on surrounding attractions. Fun activities for the children such as firetruck rides on Saturday night s’more‘s and bingo for the adult and crafts during the day. Bathrooms were clean and our site was nice. Only 43 miles to Nar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Best place to eat for great lobster is the Union River lobster pot. We had a great ti

Everything is very clean, store is really clean, quiet also. Nice pool and great ice cream next door.

The camp worked out great for a our travel into Bar Harbor. The staff is excellent and friendly, and the grill turns out three meal types daily, including pizza delivered to your site. And, if you have room for desert, there is an ice cream shack next door serving up soft and hard serve ice cream. The only negative I can say is some camp sites are under pine trees that drip a little pitch.
Aug 10, 2021
The only reason for not giving top marks is that the sites are very close together. Within that constraint it was very good.

It was our first time staying at a KOA. Staff was very friendly and the site and facilities were clean. We had to leave before the office opened and were unsure about check out procedures, but we called the manager and they helped (sorry if I woke you up). I’ve already recommended the Holden KOA to our friends who saw our geodome pictures on Instagram. We’d stay at a KOA again for sure!

Accommodating staff!

We had an amazing time. The staff was polite and helpful. Our cabin was clean and had everything we needed. We will definitely return !! The staff of this campground really made it the best !! We were most grateful to have found them !! Thanks again !

We were disappointed in how freezing cold the pool was and it was pretty dirty . There is no basketball hoop which would be great for teen boys. Campsite this time was almost impossible to get out of with the size of our camper. Overall had a good time and we will be back but would like a clean warmer pool and basketball hoop. Girls enjoyed mining & fire truck ride. Friendly staff & cool store

Was very loud people up partying until 330 in the morning. Staff was friendly

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Are you sure you have the right campground. We run a very quite campground and strictly enforce the 10PM to 8AM quite time. Also when you check in we show you the phone number on the map and tell you if there is anything you need at any time, day or night to give us a call. You should have called us

This was our second stay here: friendly staff, outdoor ping pong, clean bathroom and showers, and a great ice cream place next door make it a place we are sure to return to.

We loved our stay at the Bangor/Holden KOA! The staff was friendly and helpful, giving us great suggestions on area restaurants and places of interest. We had breakfast from the store several times, and Jake (from KOA) delivered firewood to our sites and politely answered our group's various questions each day. We absolutely recommend a stay at the BH KOA!

Great KOA with all the normal amenities you would expect. The staff is super helpful, very friendly, and have great positive uplifting attitudes. When we first arrived, it rained pretty hard. We asked a neighbor if it had been raining a lot, and he said he had been here for 3 weeks and it hadn't stopped yet. We stayed for 2 weeks, and ended up with like 4 sunny days without rain. This meant that the entire campsite was pretty thoroughly flooded, and our entire yard had standing water with a nice big mud patch right at our front steps. It was so wet that the staff couldn't even mow until our second to last day, so the grass was getting pretty long and soggy. Despite all of the negative weather, the staff maintained their positive attitude, and did not cancel any of their fun events and activities. Even though the pool and bounce pad were out of commission, they more than made up for it with indoor crafts, events, and fun hangouts at the club house. The entrance is EXTREMELY tight. If you are towing a vehicle, I highly recommend you disconnect before pulling in. We did not, and we did not make it through the entrance either. Staff was once again super helpful in getting us unstuck, and gave us the time and space to maneuver safely, instead of rushing us out of the road like we have experienced at other camps, including some highly rated KOA's. The park store here is probably the biggest and most well stocked store we have seen in over a year, and the pizza, sandwiches, and ice cream are tasty and worth sampling. Jones Lobster Company right down the road really does have the BEST lobster rolls, and the best tasting lobster we had during our entire stay in Maine. We camped at Bangor / Holden KOA in a Motorhome. Detracting 1 star due to the water becoming non-potable during our stay due to their septic overflowing into their well contaminating it with e coli.

Stayed here for the Summer 23 Season. Lance and his crew really worked hard all season upgrading the place and if you ever needed anything they were great. Disregard the negative old reviews from prior ownership. Would of signed up for next season but work isn't gonna have me up there.
