Radios, music, and other electronic devices must be kept at a low volume and not be audible from neighboring sites. Campfire conversations should be quiet and respectful. We also ask that bright or decorative lights be dimmed or turned off during quiet hours.Please remain mindful of your noise levels during the day as well to help maintain a pleasant environment for everyone.

  3. Noise Control: Excessive or disruptive barking is not permitted.
  4. Supervision: Pets may not be left unattended at campsites, RV sites, cabins, or anywhere on the property.
  5. Pet-Friendly Areas: Pets are allowed in all tent and RV sites and in pre-designated pet-friendly cabins (*additional fee applies to cabins).
  6. Dog Park: A dog park is available on-site for your convenience. Pets may be off-leash in this area only.  Please continue to supervise your pet while using this area.

Management reserves the right to require the removal of any pet that poses a disturbance or safety concern. Guests who fail to comply with pet policies may be asked to leave the property without a refund.
Although we do not require your pet's rabies papers, we ask that you be able to provide them in the event of an emergency.

Meet Your Hosts

Jeff & Melanie Peterson

Welcome to the Skowhegan / Kennebec Valley KOA! We hope you embrace the endless opportunities in Maine!

September 4, 2014 was a lucky and life-changing day for Jeff and Melanie Peterson. It marked their tenth wedding anniversary and the day they signed the final paperwork to purchase the Skowhegan / Kennebec Valley KOA.“We'd been dreaming of that day for five years,” Jeff says. “I've been an avid camper most of my life. My son and I are both Eagle Scouts, and Melanie and I have camped together since we were married.”
 Now, more than a decade later, that excitement has only grown. Twelve seasons have brought new friendships, returning families, improvements to the campground, and countless campfire memories. What began as a dream has become a way of life.Today, Jeff and Melanie remain just as passionate about camping and hospitality as they were on day one. They look forward each season to welcoming both new and returning campers who share a love of the outdoors and a desire to explore the spectacular places that make Maine's Kennebec Valley so special.
