Campground Reviews

Jul 26, 2022
This campground is beautiful and offers so much to do. The weekend activities were a lot of fun and we loved being able to enjoy the walking trails behind the campground. Everyone was super nice and friendly and having free food delivery, from their cafe right to our site, was terrific. Their gift shop always is fun and great ice cream at Holden A Kone. We look forward to our next visit!

Nice enough grounds, but bath hoses really need work. Would not recommend staying here until remodel is complete. Pool coping is loose and hazardous. Toilets plugged in bathhouse prevented use of any toilet until cleared. Had to wait an hour.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

You called at 7:45 AM and I was at the bathroom at 7:50 and unplugged it. I am sorry that I can not control people clogging the toilets. If we could get the materials when promised the bathroom remodel would have been finished before we opened for the season. Not sure how you waited a hour

From the minute we arrived we had NO power. Went to the office. Next day we couldn’t get the power to stay on. I must of gone down or called 6 times. I understand that it was the hottest weekend but No power at all. So bad I had to sit in the truck with the A/C going to cool down I will NOT stay here again!

You were on a 50/30/20 amp site. I'm sorry that the 30 amp site breaker went bad. We leant you a 50 amp to 30 amp converter & you refused to us it & decided to plug into the 20 amp. You had power but refused to use the 50 amp.

We stayed in a dome while we were in town for the state Little League tournament (we won!), and it was perfect. There was plenty of space for two adults and two kids, and the beds were plenty comfortable for a good night’s rest. The pool was a good daytime activity for the kids to avoid the intense heat of the week.

Congrats on the winning the State Little League Tournament!!!!!

Another great time at this KOA! Our cabin was clean and comfortable and we just loved it! It was so hot while we were there, so the pool was wonderful! It was great to be able to order food from the Pizza Cafe and have them deliver it right to us at the pool. Ice cream at the Kone was very refreshing in this heat. The staff here are always so friendly and helpful… they make us feel like family.

400 characters is not enough to explain how I was treated by the owner. Let's just say Chris lived up to his reputation as a "hot head". I guess he's friendly until a customer has a question about how they operate. To bad because the campground was clean and well maintained. A little tight but not to bad. I wouldn't go back just based on the customer service.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

No question how we operate. You were upset we charged more for a pull thru then a back in. You called & want to be near your friends. We did this and emailed the changes with new prices. Next day you were furious with a $4.21/day increase & demanded we give you your money back or get a bad review.

We have been to a lot of KOAs but I have to say we have never been to one with such wonderful owners and such helpful owners. Even if you encounter a problem you will have it fixed immediately. And Cone King Ice Cream is a must do while staying there.

Wonderful people all around the resort. Helpful and friendly. Can’t say enough - it was a great stay.

Chris and co are great hosts! Campground very clean and noise free..... well we had a set of 30 month old twins that got a little loud. This is the 2nd year in a row coming to your Holden KOA. We will be back for a 3rd !

I had a great time at this KOA. My camper was so comfortable and very clean and well maintained. The staff were all friendly and helpful and I loved the availability of their outdoor games area. Being able to order delicious food, from Red Barn Cafe, and even having it delivered to my site was such a treat. I look forward to my next trip back to this campground. Thank you for everything!

We were there on July 4th weekend. We have a Class A Motorhome and are towing a trailer. The owner came out, parked our car trailer for us, making our set up completely stressfree. This campground had a number of fun activities for the entire family the entire weekend. We have dogs and this campground had a fenced in area, that allowed us to let our pets run freely. The pool area was well kept.

We had a wonderful time at this campground and the staff was so friendly and helpful. The activities were great and we enjoyed the outside game area by the pavilion. We loved that there was a cafe right on the property and they even delivered our food to our site for free. Holden A Kone was a great treat for all of us also. We can’t wait to go back again!

Beautiful sites and very nice and courteous peoples ��

Mixed bag. Had site in rear area, but not level. Difficult to hookup. Did not have arrival packet ready upon arrival. At first, they didn't know we were coming. Pool seemed to have shade of green. Exiting park, turning left across traffic lane, can be Very Difficult at high traffic times. Go there and you'll quickly understand comment. We were on hill in rear of park, less traffic and quieter.

Park model we rented not clean. Outdoor deck not cleaned off. Water smelled terrible. TV remote back missing. Couch had a tear. Shades very difficult to maneuver up and down. Bed so high up it was difficult to get in and out. Bathroom register vent on floor full of hair. Shower dirty. Not many channels on TV would come in. This is our 2nd rental stay and we probably will not try again.

I saw reviews stating owner was a bit of a hot head; nothing could be further from the truth. I hit a wooden box they had around returnable container when pulling into my site. Went and told Chris what had happened, and he couldn't have been more pleasant about it. Campground is extremely clean, and they offered many activities for the campers. I would highly recommend.

On the 4th of July there was a worker sanding the bathroom building trim for several hours. We could not sit outside due to this loud noise. Pool needs to be redone as it is falling apart and looks green.

The owners were very nice & personable. The campground was clean & offered a variety of lodging options, a restaurant with delivery option to your campsite & cute ice cream shop. We stayed in a dome which was enjoyable & unique. There was a large variety of outdoor activities available on the property. As avid campers, we have stayed in many KOA campgrounds and this one did not disappoint!

We had planned to go to a KOA closer to Acadia, Bangor/Holden KOA turned out to be centrally located for our day trips all around the Downeast. Chris, Lauren and Kayla were incredible hosts! They were extremely accommodating when my wife and I had vehicle and medical issues, recommending an excellent truck service and having a friend occupy another site while I recuperated in his.

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.
