Very nice park with shaded sites on tidal basin. Low tide becomes mostly mud. Very friendly people. Shuttle to nearby Booth Bay Harbor handy since parking in town is limited. Does have many mosquitoes. But not really a problem if prepared for it. We would definitely return. Convenient location for traveling coastline along ME 1. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a pretty campground set in the woods, with many sites being along the edge of the tidal inlet. While you can canoe etc. on the water during high tide, I really wouldn't want to swim. Our kids (boys 11 and 14) found a lot of things to keep them busy. Sites were not huge, but large enough for our 27 ft trailer with one slide and awning. Ground cover was gravel and sand - since it rained most of the time we were there it was extremely muddy. Had three washers/dryers - clean but rather old. Very quiet campground. Bring your bug spray - there were an awful lot of bugs. We were in a full hook-up site on the water. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice campground, close to many attractions. Wooded sites, many are along the tide water, but full hookup sites are not by the water. Mosquitos are rampant, but that's the state bird of Maine afterall :) Friendly, comfortable, clean campground that we would return to. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A nice resort close to Booth Bay, but it did have some down sides. Many of the sites were extremely tight for big rigs. Neighbor spent 45 minutes trying to wedge his fifth-wheel into site. Also, we paid extra for a site on the water, and were disappointed to find our site was at the end of a tidal area. It certainly was no stream and during low tide, the area turned into a smelly, mucky mess. The children's area/miniature golf area was overrun with mosquitoes. My husband was out there for a total of 10 minutes and had to return to the site because he was eaten alive. They have poor mosquito control. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice campgrounds, sites are in pine woods and very comfortable. People were nice and very helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.

My husband, dog, and I had a wonderful time at this campground (except for problems with our motorhome, but that wasn't the campground's fault). To specify the above, the campground is on an ocean inlet, I wouldn't really call it the ocean or a river. They have good mosquito control with two Mosquito Magnets in use. The "beach" is dependent upon the tides. The people who manage this campground and the staff are very friendly and cooperative. Water pressure could be a bit better. Everything was very clean and well taken care of. While this could be considered a family campground, it's also excellent for those without kids who don't care that it doesn't have a pool. Little Ponderosa is within a very easy drive to Boothbay Harbor itself and Wiscasset. While there, be sure to also go to Ocean Point and walk the rocks. If the water pressure had been better, the sites a tad wider, and if they had had a pool/hot tub I would have given it a rating of 10. Consider this a very high 8 rating. We'll definitely be going back to Little Ponderosa. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Outstanding campground - it is the way all others should be. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Loved the park, can't wait to go back We camped here in a camper.

Wonderful park in a beautiful setting. Very easy to maneuver for big rigs. Loved the wooden decks at several of the sites. Trash cans at site and paper delivered to your site everyday is a very nice touch. Personnel was very friendly and helpful. Would be a great place for a small rally. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We really liked this park. We camped in the field area near the pond and were able to good cell phone reception and great Wi-Fi. I'm not sure we would have gotten clear satellite in the lovely wooded area but it worked beautifully where we were. The complimentary newspaper delivered to the site was a nice touch. From the desk staff to those who filled the propane tanks, everyone was friendly and helpful. We'd stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground is as charming as it gets with woods and waterfront sites. The staff was friendly. Don't forget to walk out to their private fishing area. We stayed an extra day. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground offers both sunny sites and shady sites. It was well kept up and the people were very friendly. It has both pull thru and back in sites for larger rigs. There are some sites that back up to a river although the river was almost nonexistent while we were there and there were some odors. The site we stayed in was away from the river and we had no smell. We stayed in the sunny large rig section. The shady sites were nice without being too cozy. They have plenty to offer. A paper every morning was an enjoyable touch. It is just a few miles to Boothbay. We would enjoy staying here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

There really is nothing wrong with this park, but it wasn't one of our favorites. The park definitely caters to the big rigs. There were very few showers for this size park and they were older and cost money, although they were clean. The laundry was sufficient but a little expensive. A free newspaper is delivered to each site each weekday which is nice. The staff was ok. It was a good location from which to explore the surrounding areas. We would probably stay here again just because there is not much else in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I agree with previous reviews. This campground offers something for everyone; shaded woods or large open pull throughs. Some nice touches-each site has a trash can, daily newspaper delivered every morning, and hookups in good working order. The shuttle is $1, sure beats the $15 parking fee in town. Great service for the campers, way to go Shore Hills. To nit-pick a bit, it'll cost you to shower. It seems to me with the rate they charge, a shower should be included. There is no pool, but there is beach access-watch the tides. There is a playground for the kids, and a dog play area. Not sure about wi-fi (don't think it was offered)-we used our Verizon aircard, good signal. We stayed one week, GS discount. We would come back again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Loved this campground! There's tons to do in Boothbay and the campground runs shuttles into town 4 times a day for your convenience. There's many shaded sites and then some out in the open if you need satellite clearance. The staff is all very friendly and accommodating...we'll definitely return next time we're in this area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We frequent this campground every year in late June and early July. The owners continue to make upgrades to the facilities every year. They are currently installing 16' porches on the 50 amp big-rig sites up the hill. Wireless internet is available at the office and up in the big rig area. A video review of the park is available on Youtube and captures only the big rig area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We had a wonderful experience at this campground. We were late to arrive due to heavy traffic in Massachusetts, but we called ahead and the office left our site information out for us. We had an open pull thru site since we were camping with friends who had a very large Class A. The site was not very private, but it was very clean and large with plenty of space between campers. We had friends that stayed in a back in wooded site and they also had plenty of room on their site. The campground was a short ride into Boothbay Harbor, which is a great place to visit. There were plenty of markets along the way to pick up groceries. We did not make it into the camp store, so I'm not sure how the amenities were, but we did receive a morning paper left on our steps and I thought that was a real nice touch. The staff was very friendly. I would return to this campground. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Excellent campground for exploring the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Excellent well-shaded large private sites for motor homes. Nice shore-front sites for tents, pop ups, and RV's on Pine Point (W & E only). Secluded sites for tents and pop ups (W only & E-W only) in wooded section. Staff was friendly and helpful. There is a shuttle several times daily to Boothbay Harbor. We camped here in a Motorhome.

My lot was large, shaded, private, nice view of the tidal pond and level. The whole CG shows owner's attempt to make it top notch and keep it that way. Not mentioned in other reviews is the fact that they run a scheduled shuttle to the harbor for $1.00. Lots of activities available. Store is well stocked. Owners are friendly. Can't really come up with a negative. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Concur with he other posters...very nice CG. Lots of shaded sites for smaller units but 30' plus shade is limited. There are quite a few "big rig" sites in a field but very comfortable. Only drawback for us was just one shower in the bath house. Timing your shower is all important or you may wait half hour or more. Check to make sure your site has full hookups especially if you are on the river or in the wooded sites. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very comfortable park with sites that can satisfy a variety of preferences. Some very wooded, shady sites for tents and smaller RV's, some that will accommodate groups, and a large relatively open area with large level back-in and pull-through, FHU sites that are comfortable for big rigs. Most of the pull through sites are quite long, about 100 feet, and a few have wooden decks. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Good choice for visiting the Boothbay Harbor Region. The rate reflects a Good Sam Discount of 10%. I liked that the rate was the same for a family of four. It gets expensive when you have to start paying an extra $10/day per child. We were in the wooded section where the sites were very large. The WiFi didn't work at our site but it did work intermittently at the one site closer to the office than ours (#20). The sites are gravel and the roads are paved. The sites overlooking the Cross River have great views but have only water and electric service. The daily newspaper delivered to the site and daily garbage service picked up from your own garbage can were nice perks. Nice walk to Lundy Island and the Fishing Rocks. My son the fisherman didn't catch anything at the campground but did catch 20+ mackerel fishing from a dock in Boothbay Harbor. Bring a Kayak if you have one since it is one of the nicest ways to enjoy the local bays and harbors. We will go back! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This place is one of the nicest places we have stayed all year. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. We hadn’t realized that the CG didn’t accept credit cards and we were short on cash when we arrived but they allowed us to “come on in” and pay them “whenever we got the chance before we left”. The sites were level, gravel sites and they were very well maintained. There were trash barrels at each site that were emptied daily. The bathrooms were not new however they were very clean and well lit. We had a beautiful “waterfront” view site with tidal views. It was somewhat cold when we went so we didn’t take advantage of what appears to be a perfect spot for canoeing. One minor negative thought-As odd as it sounds we found that the picnic table seemed exceptionally narrow. My mother in law came to visit and she had difficulty sitting at the table because the seat (and the distance between the seat and table were very narrow) The rate was $40 per night plus a 10 percent AAA discount. I love the free daily newspaper. We cannot wait to go back next year We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Owner has a lot to learn about how to deal with the public. Her customer skills are poor to say the least. Have stayed here previously to this owners purchase, and the park is going down hill fast. Upkeep,and maintenance of park facilities is poor. An example is the provided patio platforms on some of the sites are unlevel, and have more waves in the surface boards than the ocean. Poorly placed hookups, unlevel sites leave a lot to be desired, along with all the other short comings for the price paid. We will not return here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Rate was $40/night less a 10% AAA discount. We stayed all the way down the hill, right by the tidal basin, in spot 82. The the campground is maintained extremely well. Everything was very clean. Each site has a barrel for trash which is picked up daily. The sites by the tidal basin don't have sewer connections and only have 30 amps. The view is beautiful and there is a nice hiking trail close to this site, that goes around an island just offshore. Larger sites are up the hill on a flat treeless area and full hookups but no view. We will be staying there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The RV park is quite and overall well maintained. However, when we arrived we were told our site was serviced and ready. We were somewhat dismayed to find cigarette butts littering the ground and cigarette butts and wrappers inside the fire ring. These had to be picked up off the ground and out of the fire ring by us after we occupied the site. The campground is divided into 2 distinct areas. The top area by the lake is an open grassy area featuring 50 amp full hookups. It has both pull throughs and back ins with graded gravel roads and is used primarily for big rigs. The lower sites are down the hill towards the ocean tidal coves and features both full hookups and water/electric sites for smaller Travel Trailers, 5th Wheels and Motorhomes. The lower sites are used more for water oriented camping activities such as kayaking, canoeing and salt water fishing. A wifi system is available although not advertized, but can only be accessed close to the check in office. The $30/night rate was obtained by paying a monthly fee of $930 divided by 31 days. The normal fee for 30 amp service is $38/night. The park staff were friendly and helpful. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Well kept, tidy park. We have a dually/36' high-profile fifth wheel. Our pull-through site was open, large and easily accessed. Other areas were deep in woods, shady and less accessible. Staff very helpful. Old restrooms but in spotless condition. Shuttle bus from park to Bar Harbor cheap and easy. Free WiFi at trailer despite being told it was available only near office area. Good cable TV. Trash collected at site - nice touch. Free daily newspaper - even nicer touch. Would use again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The park was well marked and easy to find coming from both directions, well marked parking areas for new arrivals to check in. Nice wooded, un-paved sites with easy utility hookups. Over 34' RV sites are out in a field with pull thru sites available. Campground was quiet with access to a tidal area for canoeing at all but low tide. A nice Rec Hall was on site, but without a pool, this is not a great kid campground. There was a bit of a drive to get to area attractions. NO CREDIT CARDS ACCEPTED. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We have stayed here several times and always enjoyed it. The campground is generally quiet. Most of the roads are paved. Many of the sites are located under the trees, but the pull through site are in open space. The campground has a moto, "No rig is too big." and they mean it. I once spoke with the owner of an RV and trailer combination that is a total of 80 feet long. He was parked in one of the pull through sites and there was still a little room left. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice and quiet campground. The people running this place were extremely nice and accommodating. Several sites are near the tidal pool, not really ocean front but nonetheless nice. Dump station has two lanes. Only a few miles from Boothbay Harbor, CG has shuttle service to the harbor where there are quaint shops, fishing trips and harbor cruises. Already made reservations to return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I loved this campground. It was quiet and clean. We had a "waterfront" site with tidal views. We also were able to get Wi-Fi at our site...it is not available at the park but somehow we were able to connect. We would go back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Stayed here for the Columbus Day weekend in 04. A clean, well run and excellently maintained family CG. The pull throughs and big rig spots are at the higher end of the CG. There are numerous tenting sites and sites for smaller rigs running down the hill to the bay. We stayed right on the bay. Absolutely beautiful views of a salt water marsh. Great spot for canoeing. Most interior roads paved. Clean bathrooms. CG staff all exceptionaly friendly and helpful. We had a party of two 5th wheels and we'll definitely be back here in 05. Does not accept credit cards. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This was a nice campground, much better than a lot of parks in the Northeast. Roads were paved/gravel. Sites were gravel and level. There were two different areas of the park, one wooded and one open. We stayed in the open area in a large pull thru. The wooded area would probably be a challenge for a big rig, but the open area was no problem. Electricity was good. This was a good place to stay and we would return. Dont miss the lobster rolls at Reds Eats in Wiscasset. We camped here in a Motorhome.
