Penobscot Outdoor Center

Had a great time here. Beautiful campsite nicely nearby lake. Easy accessibility into Baxter State Park. staff is very accommodating. Wi-Fi service. Volleyball fire pit on site rafting with three rivers amazing on the Penobscot Rental of wetsuits very reasonable at five dollars per piece. Nice rafting guides with three rivers the River beautiful.

I’ve stayed at this campground several times now and both are significant positive memories that have stayed with me. It’s a great place to pop a tent or rent the “bunkhouse” and it’s in the most amazing location. You can walk down to the office area for beer, fire pit, piano, horseshoes, or to check in for rafting. There are canoes/kayaks/paddle boards available, and the staff are always friendly and helpful. More than anything you can’t beat the location! Recently added rafting the Penobscot to my list and our guide Ty was amazing! (Full review under Penobscot Adventures for that). I can’t wait to come again whether to camp or raft, or both!!

Beautiful location on a pond with views of katahdin. Friendly and informative man did our check in. Loved the free canoes and pool and ping pong for rain activities.

Went rafting with POC/NEOC and cannot say enough good about them. Our guide Ty was fabulous. There were a couple of first timers in our boat and I was obviously quite nervous so he took the time to explain things so we felt better and were prepared. We did both the upper and lower river. We absolutely loved the rapids. I hate to admit it but the falls that I was so nervous about may have been the best part (haha). Seriously tho, you just can’t beat the views on this river either. Lunch was super yummy- especially the brownie. I would recommend POC/NEOC, and especially Ty a million times over. Keep up the great work guys and gals!

Best camping experience! The location close to Baxter State Park can't be beat, and the view of Katahdin from across the pond is really amazing. The camp manager is the coolest chick you'll ever meet. Always smiling and friendly and very knowledgeable about everything in the area. The rest of the staff is just awesome too. I always come back here when I visit the area!

had a lovely two nights at the campgrounds here! beautiful views of katahdin over the pond, and some relaxing activities available in the lodge. Matt went above and beyond to accommodate our stay and help us feel welcomed! overall we were very pleased with our stay :)

We stayed here 3 nights while exploring Baxter. The campsites were wonderful, the staff was friendly, and having access to the pub building was a great plus. We also enjoyed visiting the main resort for dinner and kayaking. All in all a lovely place to call home for a few days.
