Staff was friendly, pizza was awesome. Only negative was the grass needed mowed but at least there was grass unlike some other campgrounds.

From the moment that we drove up and saw a sign welcoming us by our family name, we knew that we found a great place!

Beautiful, clean campground. Very friendly and helpful staff. Sites are spaced well.Great amenities. Gardens were beautiful. Got the impression that they wanted you to have the best time possible. Always checking the grounds to see where they could help.

Beautiful facilities!

When we arrived we were told we couldn’t hook up our 59 amp camper to the 30 amp site we booked on line. My fault I didn’t read the last sentence. They were great to find us another accommodations. So thankful they did. Site we had for the night was nice.

We stayed at the KOA for a weeklong stretch between house closings. It couldn't have been a better stay. The cabin had everything we needed and the staff were incredibly accommodating and helpful. The kids had a great time riding around, making friends, exploring the trails, eating ice cream and riding in the fire truck. We only wish we could have snagged the cabin for longer!

We had a great time there. The Camp host/owner Seen me setting up my camper and ask me if I needed a hand. Later I needed propane went up to the office and asked how do I get propane he said jump in a golf cart we'll go get it. Not only did we go get it but he filled it up and then took me back to my camper. I'll be staying there again if I come through.

At this KOA, it is on iois who the owners are as they are always present and are very friendly. Chris enjoys talking to his guests and getting you anything you need. Bathrooms and showers are clean, though occasionally you will get an ice cold shower. The campground itself is not the prettiest, and the pool needs work. The ice cream place next door is awesome as well.

Exceptionally friendly and accommodating staff at desk. We liked the walking trails behind the KOA. Great if you have kids. We don't. We liked the different levels of camping. We took a deluxe site and liked the fire pit, glider, grill, and table/chairs on the block patio. I recommend a lending library.

The owners were friendly and well informed of the area. If a problem arose they were quick to fix it. Camp and bathrooms were clean. Loved bingo night and the huge bonfire after, including marshmallows and sticks. Don’t forget to order a NY style pizza they make themselves. Delicious!! Well done Chris and Lauren

Service was good but site was very unlevel and the campground was not esthetically appealing. The homemade pizza was also good

Do yourself a favor and find another campground. While this KOA may have several favorable reviews, read the negative reviews and the response. I will not be the first person to call this owner a Hot HEAD or the first person to say I had an ELECTRICAL ISSUE. When I complained about the electrical issue the second time, his response was to start yelling & Kick us out with a 2 hour notice.

I had a wonderful time and thought the place was great!
Jul 26, 2021
Tent sites were a little close to eachother but it was all fun and had a great time

We enjoyed our time at Bangor/Holden KOA. When heavy rain changed our plans and we requested a 2-day extension Chris shifted sites around to accommodate us during a very busy time. Chris and Lauren are an excellent example of what KOA campground owners and host should be. I will definitely stay there again if in the area. Thanx Chris and Lauren.

The owners of the Bangor/Holden KOA go more than the "extra mile". They go however far it takes to make sure their guests have an enjoyable stay. They work hard and are a pleasure to do business with. The showers nice and the grounds are kept spotlessly clean. Bangor/Holden KOA easily earned their way into our list of places we would return to.

Spacious, pull thru site for our 45' toy hauler...there was actually 3 toy haulers this size and we all had great sites next to each other. Friendly, family atmosphere, great store and the owner and staff were very kind & helpful. Easy 45 minute ride to Bar Harbor.

We were very impressed with the Bangor KOA staff. We arrived during a rain storm which caused it to be somewhat dark in the camper. Being only 5'3" I was unable to find the light selwitches on the ceiling lanps. When I called the office to ask where to find the switches, the lady I talked to did not know where they were, but personally came to the camper to help me to search for them.

The manager was awesome - friendly, professional. The campsite was perfect, the restrooms and laundry rooms were clean and well kept. I couldn’t ask for a better camping experience.
Jul 21, 2021
Very friendly Owner. Helpful too. Nice clean campground that was in a great location for us. Only 25 minutes to get to the lake. Will definitely stay here in the future.
Jul 21, 2021
Nice campsite and plenty of activity for the kids. Close to the town of Bangor. Perfect location to site see Maine. Employees was friendly and helpful. Great general store and pizza was convenient and great. Bathroom were clean regularly. Hot showers. I can't find a complaint about the place.

This park is not up to the standard that we have experienced under the KOA name elsewhere. Run down, crowded and cluttered. Spaces pictured on the booking page in no way accurately describes what you arrive to. Our RV was very close to touching the neighbors RV when our slides were out. Owner is portrayed as domineering and the police were there when we arrived. KOA, this shouldn’t bear your nam

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

The reason the police were here is that we have 4 police officers as seasonals. Some take their cars home with them. We like them here! As for cluttered, as we are running at 95% capacity, the park is busy not cluttered. Unlike other parks we allow our campers to have more than 1 car, like you had.

We loved all that this KOA had to offer, especially the pool, the ice cream shop, the cafe (lobster rolls), the clean bathrooms, and most of all the amazing owner/hosts. Chris and his wife went out of their way to make sure everyone had a fun time while there. Saturdays were full of activities for folks of all ages. This KOA store has the best inventory of any RV place we have stayed.

I loved the people at this KOA, the campers and the staff were very nice, and enjoyable. The pool could use some updating and the sites are a little close, but we still had a very nice stay and did not want to leave.

The fire ring should be the standard metal ring instead of having a collection of broken bricks and blocks stacked in a circle. It would look neater and be easier to maintain. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Jul 19, 2021
The campgrounds was clean and neat and the rest rooms were spotless. They were cleaned at least 3 to 4 times a day.The staff was friendly and helpful.
Jul 19, 2021
Our only request was to be with our family who were also camping, and we were put on the other side of the campground in a wet lot where the camper couldn’t be leveled. Asked to be moved to the empty lot beside our family (same type of lot we reserved) and were denied.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I am sorry that we were not able to accommodate you request to be next to your family. As everyone knows this is an extremely busy season and there were no sites left next to your family. When it rains over two inches over the weekend there is not much we can do. Also that site is level.
Jul 18, 2021
Staff were very friendly and gave us one of the last two spots they had left. Problem was with electric pole. Turned on microwave and blew power. They sent two young men with volt meter. Read 104 and I was told that was within tolerance. I was able to use my long 30 amp extension cord to plug into next campsite. Power was a little better. My neighbor next door had elect problems also.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

You had tenters on one side of you so I am not sure how they would have electric problems! When you took off your surge protector and plugged into the site next to you had no problems. We suggested you could plug into your site with the same results. The surge protector was the problem.

Even though the staff was wonderful and the campground very well-kept, I do not think that we would camp here again. 80% of the people there are either full timers or seasonal, and it was uncomfortable for me. Very few actual campsites. I just felt like I was intruding, rather than having a fun family camp time. Also, the sites were very small and cramped.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Out of 120 sites 45 are seasonal sites. The site you were on accommodates a 36' trailer, and the site is 50 long, and yours is 30'.There is also 12' wide of grass until the next campsite. You are from Ohio and most likely will not be camping her again. Are you sure you have the right campground?

Love this campground. Cabin was perfect and easy to maintain a comfortable temp. Lots of stuff to do at campground as well as in local area
Jul 15, 2021
Overpriced and hard to get in and out with camper.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Amazing, you booked on line and you knew what the price was. The site you had was a 75 foot pull thru site, which is angled to make it easier to pull into. Not sure you have the right campground.

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.
