Absolute disappointment this year (2025). Did our yearly camping, and this year, the beach was covered in Dog poop. I watched in horror as children were playing in the sand. Was unable to enjoy beach because of this. The lawn at the beach was the same way, dog poop every where. Swimming was not enjoyable either. To many floating devices with adults drinking and floating around kids and beach goers. Lots of inappropriate behaviors and language. It was an everyday accurate during our stay. The campsite was nice and could have been enjoyed except for the constant loud parties and more inappropriate actions and words, until 12 and 1 o'clock. It was bad enough we packed up early and left before our vacation was over. Also had issue trying to rent a boat for evening fishing. Couldn't rent past 3:30 in the afternoon cause they were not gonna be there after 4. Seriously it was a Tuesday. Webb lake has great fishing, always enjoyed that, but not this time. I used to love and cherish our yearly camping trip to Mt. Blue, but I can not see us returning. From a great family orientated State Park, to a local backwoods dumping ground, I DO NOT RECOMMEND MT.BLUE STATE PARK ESPECIALLY...
Read moreI was born and raised in maine, both the paternal and maternal sides of my family going back 3 or more generations, I live in ma now, for a multitude of reasons, and partly because I couldn’t stand mainer ignorance regarding my Deaf parents and our language and culture…..I’ve been going up to maine to camp summers for a long time different places for the past couple years I’ve gone to mt blue because my mother is from carthage and wanted to re-connect with relatives however this past time I encountered the rudest treatment from park rangers…one in particular who seemed to have a very personal problem with everything I said or did…..and was excruciatingly rude and racist toward my bi-racial children he even had the balls to bring up darwynism in reference to my bi-racial kids…. I won’t be staying there again and If you are of color or maybe white with children of color I wouldn’t stay there If I was you believe me you’re not welcome there…the racism and bigotry was unparalleled to anywhere else I’ve experienced so far...
Read moreWell kept and nice place.... Pros: -well kept with sites a “decent” distance apart so you have some feeling of being in the woods. access to many great hiking/ trail areas great flat open space for kids/ people to bike. My son loves that. -facilities are nice.. -playground open... rental of Kayaks and canoes are convenient and nice with great swimming area
CON: -if you are in favor or are more into isolated campsites that are common in Maine you will find this busy -sites are close enough I could hear the guy in the next site snoring away. people running generators/ seemed 50% of people had dogs who barked early in the am. so not quiet to say the least.
In short, nice but in my view for the type of camper who does not like isolation and feels more comfortable with people and amenities. I won’t return because I love isolated camping where I “rough it” more, but for beginner campers or those who do not want to “rough it” to much a nice blend of nature and convenience!
Great friendly staff...
