Campground was nice, well maintained. The front office was terrific, friendly and helpful. Chris was very nice and they made great pizzas. Would definitely stay again.

Arrived at the campground 2 hours before check in time. No problem for Chris and his staff. Pizza’s outstanding. Entire staff was excellent. This place does it right.

Staff is very nice and helpful. While my hookup was fine, there is a problem with the electrical box, no cover. This might have been an issue in bad weather, so I reported it. See you next year!

We’ve not enjoyed virtually any koa or other camp site as much as Holden! Every employee responds as if he/she were the owners and wanted/needed to make our visit the BEST! The food, from bagels, to pizza, to lobster rolls was superb. The gift shop.. amazing! Choices beyond belief of gifts, needs, wants, didn’t know I needed but wanted..etc fabulous! KOA corp should take lessons from these own

I wanted to like this KOA, but just can’t! Our site was so tight, I could reach out my living room window and touch the neighbors slide. Our site was so unlevel, I put two leveling blocks under both my front tires, yet our RV was still low on the front end. Employee at the front desk refused to honor my rewards points for a $50 credit. If all KOA’s were like this one, I would never stay again!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

You came in the day after check in on the way out & wanted to use your rewards then. I explained that we need to do it the same day. Because of that you want to lie about the site. You were on a 130' long site which is level and you didn't use leveling blocks. Not sure how a 130' long site is tight!

Convenient location. Nice site. Firewood was so wet, water squirted out when I was splitting it. No hope of starting a fire.

4 days in a Class A, in a pull through. CG was well kept and pool was clean. Dog runs small and needed maint. Our primary problem with this CG was power, but the voltage was unstable, ranging from 99-127V. Power dropped out one day and we could not use A/C that day. The high temps were in the mid 70s and the CG has a lot of trees. Due to little breeze, the CG got quite smoky at night.

The laundry facility was in poor shape with only two functional dryers making a huge racket. One bath house was unavailable and the other was clean, but pretty beat up. The (long term?) campsite behind ours was kinda trashy with a bunch of Trump paraphernalia on public display. There was only a 30A receptacle available on site, so I had to purchase an adapter to plug in my 15A extension cord.

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable time while staying at this campground! The owners and the staff were so friendly and attentive to our every need! Excellent food from their Pizza Cafe and yummy ice cream from Holden A Kone. We hope to get back this way again next summer!

Lovely spot, right off the hwy, very friendly staff. Lovely gift shop. They are upgrading laundry only one dryer working properly. There is a sm takeout which I thought was pretty neat even if we didn’t use it.overall a very clean quiet park with lots of activities for kids. Nice pool.

Was a short stay, friendly staff, clean washrooms. Only complaint, staff need to review the location of some rocks along roads towards pull through sites. We had to move a large rocks out of the way to navigate turn. Apparently several other campers voiced the concern while speaking with them, they had to move or haul the rock to avoid hitting it while trying to access their sites.

We LOVED our site, a premium patio which looked out onto a small field, not other campers. The rest of the campground looks cramped. The staff was always very friendly & seem to love what they do. Great store & ice cream parlor on site. We experienced persistent power fluctuations. Laundry facility is not in good working order. Great trails through the woods in the back of the campground :)

Great campground, friendly staff, ice cream and restaurant on site, Bonus. Would definitely stay at this campground again. Is it the Best, no, is it the worst? Not by a long shot. We’ve been to a lot of campgrounds in all the northeast and this one is well into the top half! Keep up the good work Chris!

Great staff. This was our second visit to this campground. Site was a little small for a Big Rig but we made it work.

Beautifully maintained campground. Gift shop and food service are above average.

Thank you for a great time at your campground! What a fun few days! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We wish that we could have stayed longer!

Great campground, spotless bathrooms/ showers. Laundromat sucked. 3 dryers out of 4 out of order, 4th sounded like a broken Sherman tank. Had to drive 8 miles to the nearest coin op laundromat.
Aug 22, 2022
Had a great visit as always! Can’t wait to go back!

The owners were friendly. Clean sites, bathroom, and rec hall. My kids love the pool and rec room. Lots of goodies to shop in the gift shop and many things in the kitchen to have made to eat.

we stayed 2 nites and were very pleased with the office/owners welcome. our site was a corner deluxe patio which was great and the patio furniture was lovely. the restaurant on premise was good n a lot of choices. also their ice cream stand Holden A Cone (luv that name) was delightful:) grounds are well kept as were all the facilities��� we would highly recommend this campground.

Chris the Owner was very accommodating and very friendly and kind to us . He recommended things for us to do in the area and took the time to let us know all about the koa and things happening there . He arranged for us to stay a extra night for us as we were from Canada and wanted to stay and see more things around . This was a clean and friendly place and I would go back for sure !

Lots of activities for kids. Bathrooms clean, but busy 8 - 9, with only two nearby stalls. They gave us the most expensive site (albeit, last site for a motorhome). But it was a 50 amp site where I spent an hour trying to get it to work. Their worker eventually spent another 1/2 hr before realizing it would only work as a 30 amp. No compensation and no apology.

Great KOA! Maybe the best one we’ve stayed at. The sights and the location were good, but the owners made this park a great place to stay! They were always around to give advice on where to go and eat. The store was incredible, best stocked KOA store ever. Super friendly and helpful staff.

Pool needs work and not much to do for the kids, but we enjoyed being close to Acadia, the surrounding area has a lot to offer, and the owners were very nice. Food delivered to your site and one of the best camp stores we've seen were also a plus. Having an ice cream stand on the campground was great too.
Aug 14, 2022
it was nice clean friendly staff they were helpful on every thing we will go back someday soon

Great staff!! Great location. Clean facilities and spacious lots. Stable power.
Aug 13, 2022
We were assigned site 71 but it had electrical issues so we were graciously & quickly moved to site 25, which turned out to be better because it offered more privacy and most importantly, afternoon shade. Tough getting in & out due to the crazy amount of traffic on 1A, but not the fault of the campground. My only complaint would be the noisy staff golf cart frequently passing by our site.
Aug 11, 2022
The koa is clean but most of the sites are taken up by seasonal campers. I paid 1600 hundred plus 75 dollars for electric for a month. We lost power at least 20 times and the owner claimed it was the electric company not giving them enough power. He even rented out the site next to me every day even though he new it had no power. So if you like over price campgrounds with no power this is for you
Aug 10, 2022
We enjoyed our visit. Sites were a little close. I would have given you a 5 but when we lost power one of the workers came by and I asked if it was back on. He said yes, we loose power when you big rigs are here. I looked around I was the only big rig in that loop, #73 the rest of them were trailers. So sure blame me. Perhaps update your power system.

Very nice hosts. Excellent pizza, yummy ice cream. Laundry facility was old and not working well. Washing machines didn’t spin all the water out of the clothes and the dryers barely dried in a reasonable time. Owner said they had a call into the laundry repair. The voltage power was under 104 volts during the days we were there. Just not enough to run our ac consistently when it was super hot.

We had such a great time staying at this campground! The owners and the staff were so gracious and helpful! We loved being able to order food from their Cafe and having it delivered, right to our site, was a great surprise! They have an amazing gift shop and a fun Ice Cream Kone, too! We hope to be able to get back again soon for another visit!

Very small campsite. Pool was not clean and the pool itself looked in disrepair

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.
