South Arm Campground

After reading some crappy reviews about this campground, we decided to just go for it and see for ourselves Best decision ever!!!! I don’t know what those other folks who gave lousy reviews had expected, but this place is a slice of heaven! I have spent many years camping and have also worked in a few campgrounds, and never have I seen cleaner bathrooms, spotless at all hours, with floors bone dry! Staff is excellent, sites are beautiful and well maintained , and the lake speaks for itself If you are looking for beauty, serenity and a stunning setting, this is your place If you are looking for “glamping “, keep looking.. This is what real camping is about

Went there with my family camping over 25 years ago. To me it was the most beautiful place I ever went camping large sandy beach on the lake. Camping near the lake in a tent and mountain views. Canoeing out to Island's kayaking. At night you will be one with the universe, the stars were so bright & scary because you are at the outback in Oxford county the most beautiful county in Maine. You're from the city, you will hear and see the true call of the wild. Getting there driving no more than 30 mph so you can stop fast, faster and you have a good chance of getting hurt from hitting a big mouse or bear, dear. Have lots of fun, don't drink & drive,or anything else cause your a long way from help!

LOVED this camp ground, super friendly staff, flexible, and super clean. As a solo female traveler, I felt super safe, loved how the generator was cut to enjoy the night sky. Be aware that as of 2024 they don't accept credit cards, so bring cash. No cell service (which was just what I needed), but they have wifi for $1/day. Will come again!

I cannot believe I failed to leave a review when we visited, so I'm doing that now. My wife and I honeymooned here and it was everything we could ask for. I had spent a trip at South Arm decades prior and when I say the word timeless, that's what South Arm is. I'll never forget my time here and long to get back up and say hello (once our little one is a bit older). Dotty, Leon, Peter and Belinda (I know I'm forgetting some names after 6+ years) were absolutely wonderful and helpful in everything from finding the closest place for supplies to learning how to use an outboard motor for the first time. Peace and quiet. That's what you'll find here. An absolutely unforgettable experience.

Cash only. Beautiful views and minutes to off roading trails. They have canoe and kayak rentals. No cell service but they offer WiFi.
