Great tent camping. The view from the property is really great, was able to get some Verizon service, and the location is really easy to find. Dan is also super communicative and answered any questions we had really quickly!

Great spot to camp before hiking Saddleback! Dan was friendly & helpful, and the area was lovely & dog friendly. Would stay here again!

Gem of a spot
Tent
This is really a gem of a spot near Rangeley and Saddleback. We happened to be here with no other campers so our experience was very private. The views are amazing. We stayed in a tent site and had enough space to drive in and set up, and the fee is a good value. Would return here to camp in the area any time.

Girls camping trip

We had an amazing time! The walk on site is the most private, the views are spectacular!
Stores are close enough to stock up on everything, and it’s the perfect location for all your hiking needs! Can’t wait to go back! 🩵

Great back country campsite
Tent
Very good place to camp and it has easy access to a lake and the Appalachian trail. There is no shower, and I would recommend bringing a water filter, but the outhouse is very nice and the campsites a great. Also keep in mind that there are three campsites here so you may not be all by yourself.

Simple but great spot
Tent
Nice spot - “Saddleback Base” is a good description since you can hike it from down the road of the property.
We had one of the tent sites, not the cabin.
You drive down this semi private gravel road with about a dozen cabins, across that pond in the pictures, and about a mile further is the property. Dan happened to be there with his family and was very nice dude and accommodating, the tent site we had was far enough away to have our own privacy. A lovely pine / boreal feel. Would absolutely book again if back in the area!
