Family and Friends Campground

34 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 1 Park Model

Family and Friends Campground in Standish, Maine, offers 34 RV sites and four cabin and park model units in the Sebago Lake watershed, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 42 feet behind a gated entrance. Full-hookup categories at both amperages join transient water-and-electric tiers, with an outdoor pool, hot tub, beach, and bar. Thirty-four back-in sites span 30-amp full hookup, 50-amp full hookup, transient water-and-electric, and transient water-and-electric 50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 42 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the transient categories do not carry sewer at the site. Four cabins and park models round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, recycling, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor the summer, with a lake, pond, and beach supporting fishing and swimming. A recreation center, game room, arcade, billiards, ping pong, horseshoes, hiking, a playground, community fire pit, and bar fill the rest, with planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. Cumberland County's Sebago Lake watershed has been a southern Maine summer destination since the 19th century — Sebago is the state's deepest lake and Portland's water supply, with genuinely clear water, and Sebago Lake State Park is close. Portland and the coast are a short drive southeast. Summer is the season. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

14 RV Sites, 3 RV Rental + Campsite Packages

Seventeen sites run in 30/50-amp pull-through full hookup and 30-amp back-in full hookup categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two straightforward categories keep booking simple; note the 40-foot cap before bringing a larger rig. RV rentals round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a recreation center, game room, playground, walking trails, biking, swimming, and picnicking filling the rest. The dark Lakes Region sky makes for genuinely good stargazing. Pets are welcome. The setting is the appeal. The campground is surrounded by a state-managed forest and wildlife preserve, with a nature trail meandering through the pine woods down to Braun Bay on Lake Winnipesaukee — New Hampshire's largest lake at 72 square miles, with 250 islands and a shoreline that has drawn summer visitors for well over a century. Castle in the Clouds, the Loon Center, and Wolfeboro are close, with the White Mountains and the Kancamagus a short drive north. Summer is the season in the Lakes Region, with foliage drawing a strong late September and early October. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

The Arrival Bed & Breakfast

The Arrival Bed and Breakfast in Harwich, Massachusetts, offers boutique suites in a nineteenth-century sea captain's residence on Cape Cod, with on-site dining, a library, and WiFi, minutes from Nantucket Sound beaches and the Cape Cod Rail Trail. The property is pet friendly — uncommon among Cape Cod inns of this character. Elegantly appointed suites blend period architectural detail with modern comfort in a house built during the era when Harwich men sailed to the Grand Banks and the Pacific on the merchant routes that built coastal New England's nineteenth-century economy. On-site dining covers meals, a library serves quieter hours, and a general store is close at hand. WiFi reaches the property. The setting does most of the work. The Cape Cod Rail Trail runs nearby for cycling, Nantucket Sound beaches are minutes away for swimming, and a creek and the working harbor and cranberry bog landscape of Harwich's agricultural interior sit just inland. Harwich Port's village center concentrates the area's social and culinary life within easy reach, and a state park is nearby. Harwich sits on the elbow of the Cape, which puts both the Sound beaches to the south and the Atlantic side within short driving distance — a position that suits guests wanting to sample the whole Cape rather than commit to one shore. Directions: the inn is on Route 28, running through West Harwich. Arriving from off-Cape, GPS will typically route you off Highway 6 at Exit 78A (formerly Exit 9). A half mile after the exit, turn left onto Upper County Road, which merges into Route 28 at Dennis Port, then continue along Route 28. Summer is peak on the Cape by a wide margin. Reserve well ahead for July and August, and expect strong shoulder-season demand in September.
