Tent Reviews

Sep 25, 2023
We checked-in on the day of arrival at KOA around 6:45 PM & Sara (Gen'l Manager) was most helpful in finding our tent site. The only downside of our stay at the Bangor/Holden KOA was the "boil water" restriction. It would have been an inconvenience if we had a big RV & had to boil water for washing & brushing teeth. When camping, the boil water is difficult. We will learn from the experience.

on a choisi pour la piscine et le jump pad mais aucun des deux n'était dispo. C'est inacceptable, ca devrait etre averti quand les installations sont fermées. Trop cher , c'est la derniere fois que l'on sejourne à ce koa. Le site de camping pas tres propre, la table pourrait etre nettoyée de temps à autre .

Simply wonderful. Wish we could have stayed longer ... next time we will! Thanks Bill for the wood delivery to our tent site. And a special thanks for having an off leash area for Dug the Dog.

Campground & bathrooms nice. Need a heads up that the business next door starts making loud trucking noises at 6:00am. Wish office/gift shop opened before 9:00am.

Our first tent site we had reserved was a little stinky - smelled like sewage. So we asked the front desk if we could move, and we did. Our 2nd tent site was backed up against a lumbar yard? Lots of noise in the morning. Anyway, the bathrooms were so clean and nice.

Everything was very good. Thank you for maintaining campsites so well

Would have liked paper towels available in the bathroom to wipe down the sink area before & after using; also, would have been nice to have a light in outside sink area as it makes it difficult to wash dishes when getting dark outside!!

Nice facility and very good staff. Good location for motorcycle touring in Maine.

1) 2 night minimum for events weekend ( every weekend is an event weekend in bangor). Couldn’t make it the first night and could not get a refund. 2) my son wanted to come but couldn’t put a small pop up tent on our site. We already paid for two nights and would have had to pay for 2 more nights in order for him to come. 3) our tent site was on a hill with 3/6 on level ground not being used.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

1) when you booked you were aware of a 2 night Min. with a 2 night min why would we give you a refund. 2) our rules clearly state no additional tents on a site, & again it was a 2 night min.3) your tent was not on a hill. Why lie becuase you did not get your way?

We had the most wonderful experience at this specific KOA site. Chris was extremely hospitable and gave amazing recommendations for things to do in the area during our short stay! The restrooms/showers were extremely clean. If we ever return to the area, we will for sure camp here again. Also, get the homemade NY style pizza if you're looking for great food!

Everyone was very friendly, the activities were numerous and kept an 8 year old busy and very excited to be there. She went trick and treating, road in a fire truck, had fun on the slip&slide, had s’mores and bonfire in the evening. She loved all the dogs. The pizza was excellent. The rest room was spotless. I would recommend this KOA for family fun.

Gracias a Lauren y Chris por su hospitalidad. todo parece agradable, seguro, cómodo. El sitio de mi tienda, T4a, está ubicado en una hermosa arboleda, y era muy tranquilo, pero no muy lejos de los baños/duchas.

I'm rating a 4, which is a low 4. We tented for 2 nights at an electric/water site. The site was nice and clean. It was unfortunate to look at a camper site next to us have all his junk cars and lawn mowers all over the place. Clearly those people have been there awhile. One of the bathrooms was being renovated, and two out of four dryers were not working. Bathrooms that worked were OK.

Only stayed 1 night, didn’t get the full experience, but staff were friendly and the site was very nice

bathrooms need help
Aug 04, 2022
Noise from road loud. Food amenities were excellent. A guy set up a tent next to mine after I was asleep at 10:30 pm and made very loud noises pounding his stakes for 30 minutes

We tent camped (near the Dome tents), and the spaces were very small. Tents would be too close to the fire-ring. The pool was nice. Electricity at our tent site was functional, but seemed weak (our small fan didn't spin very fast, and the hand-dryer in the shower-house also seemed weak). The water at our site was sometimes cloudy. Staff kept the bathrooms/showers very clean!

Only one bath house, 2 female showers for entire campground. Owners said they had issues getting supplies for building the 2nd one. Really felt like that was a poor excuse.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

If you looked at the front bath house you would clearly see it is under construction. Amazing when we chatted you told me you understood about supply issues because as a nurse you are having problems getting things & you are also understaffed. Just amazing when you are here you understand!!!

The campground was busy, but other guests were quiet and respectful. The bathrooms were very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful

Wonderful campground with big beautiful trees and very friendly staff! My kids had a blast and they can’t wait to go back! They were renovating one of the bathrooms so only one bathroom for the whole camp currently. Not the most secluded, right on the main hwy, could hear traffic noise but we were in the very back so it wasn’t too bad. But those are things that can’t be changed. Overall G

Fantastic! Wonderful employees. They have a restaurant and delivered our pizza to our tent. Exceptionally clean bathrooms. Best KOA we've stayed in.

Excellent in every way!

Great amenities like laundry and showers near tent site, restaurant on the back of main office. They also gave me a coupon for a free ice cream next door.

Hosts were very kind and welcoming. Facilities were in good condition. Overall a good place to stay. A couple points that kept it from being a 5 star site for me- It was a noisy area for sleeping in a tent with the roads running closely nearby. Wood available on site at the time was not usable as it was soggy from recent rains.

I called and reserved a spot for a tent for my wife and I. Whoever I talked to was very nice and told me where to find the map to get to our campsite (because we weren't arriving until late) When we arrived there was nothing left for us. That's fine, no problem. I called the KOA and explained the situation. Whoever I dealt with, was completely unpleasant. Very unprofessional. Unacceptable.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

You called after hours and said you could not find the night drop. Told you where the box was, you were upset, said there was no map. We came down opened the door and turned on lights and you refused to come in. We apologized that someone took your map gave you a new one. Not sure what more you want

Our family had a wonderful time at this KOA! The staff was very friendly and worked extremely hard to satisfy their guests. The camp store had everything we needed that we had forgot to bring. We highly recommend staying here. We will be back next season for sure!

A fun time for the whole family!

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

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.

Had a great time

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 10, 2021
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.

Hot water! Pickleball courts. Some traffic noise.

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.
