This is a great little campground with very friendly staff, large camping lots, and great walking paths through beautiful woods. We stayed here when traveling across the border in both directions, as it is very close to the I95 and the border crossing. The new patio sites are really well done! One of our more enjoyable stays this year.
I had a great time here. The sites are spacious and comfortable. And checking in was straightforward. Their camp store is well stocked with the essentials. And the staff and other campers were all very friendly! People would wave hello and say good morning as they walked by my site.They have wifi available too. Seemed very family-friendly.
The only slight issue is I found the campsite numbers were not easy to read. I arrived at night, which definitely contributed. But I think they could benefit from bigger signs. Wasn’t a huge deal though.
Immaculate grounds and trails. Quiet peaceful sites. Very friendly and helpful owners. They go out of their way to help and accommodate you.
Beautiful camp grounds, kind campers with helpful teenagers there is plenty to do to stay busy and close to the small interstate and Walmart.
We absolutely loved our stay at the Houlton KOA! From the moment we arrived, the owners made us feel right at home — they are incredibly friendly, helpful, and go above and beyond to ensure every guest has a great experience. Their warm hospitality truly sets this campground apart.
The location is phenomenal — nestled in a peaceful, scenic area that offers a perfect mix of nature and convenience. The grounds are beautifully maintained, with lush greenery, clean sites, and plenty of space to relax and unwind.
And here’s the cherry on top: the WiFi is stellar! Fast, reliable, and perfect for working remotely or streaming after a day of outdoor fun — a rarity for campgrounds.
Highly recommend this KOA to anyone passing through or looking for a peaceful getaway. We’ll definitely be back!
