Forty five years ago, our family started assembling 400 acres of woods and fields on the banks of the beautiful Androscoggin River. We enjoy actively managing the property for wildlife habitat and tree growth. The diverse landscape includes over 1/2 a mile of river frontage, a 10 acre wildlife pond, rolling hills in the meadows and steep forested terrain with more than 10 miles of multi-use trails running throughout. Our lands have long been open to local hikers, bikers and cross country skiers, we are excited to share this beautiful property with a larger community. Scout for wildlife and birds, on our private 400 acres of forests and fields. Tire yourself by hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing, or cross country skiing the 10 miles of private trails. Located across the river from Riverlands State Park, just minutes from Lewiston-Auburn, Bates College, local breweries and just 2 1/2 hours from Boston. Wildlife abounds both on the property and across the river at Androscoggin Riverlands State Park. Quite often, a gentle breeze off the water will offer relief from black flies and mosquitoes, but the right bug repellent is recommended especially to fend off those pesky ticks that are so common in Maine.

Site 1 - Slippery Rock Riverbank Tent Sites

Fireflies were a surprise!

We went on a rainy day but it was still amazing! We did not expect the fireflies at night so that was a sweet surprise. The tent site is very private and quiet. Hosts were very welcoming and nice. Many different birds were heard and seen during our stay. Lake view was awesome. We were trying to canoe and fish but the weather messed it up a bit. Will definitely come back on a better day!

Canvas Tent @ Slippery Rock Trail

We love this peaceful spot on the river! A beautiful secluded spot to sit back and relax. Or take a nice hike through their trails. Can't wait to return!

Canvas Tent @ Slippery Rock Trail

Secluded Getaway

This was exactly what my husband and I were looking for a getaway to celebrate our anniversary. The site was beautiful with everything you might need including a grate for the fire pit, propane stove, lanterns, picnic table, Adirondack chairs, outhouse, trashcan, firewood (small additional cost), kindling, canoe (additional cost), and even a hammock. The canvas tent was perfect with a very comfortable queen size bed and mattress, just need to bring your own bedding. The location was perfect as well! Very nice secluded spot on a mini peninsula right along the Androscoggin River. It even had the perfect sandy swimming spot that was easily accessible. You get the whole traditional camping experience with a bit more comfort for sleeping. They even have nice wooded trails to walk on the property. John, Pat, and Karen were wonderful, friendly hosts who always responded to messages promptly. The only downside was the constant sound of cars carried over the water from the major roadways on either side of the river. But it didn’t bother my husband and I only heard it when I listened for it :). Just be aware it not so secluded that all you hear is nature.
