Tent Camping near Lakeville, Maine

Wild Fox Cabins & Campground

6 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 4 Tent Sites

Wild Fox Cabins and Campground in Lakeville, Maine, offers six RV sites, eight cabins, and four tent sites across 155 secluded acres on Junior Lake, with 30-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 35 feet, open all year. A single power-and-water category joins a boat ramp, boat docks, kayak and boat rentals, and 3,600 feet of shoreline. Six back-in sites carry water and electric on 30-amp, sized to 35 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two things to plan around: the sites carry water and electric rather than sewer, and the 35-foot cap rules out larger coaches — this suits vans, small trailers, and truck campers. Eight cabins and four tent sites make this substantially a cabin property. A general store, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The park points guests to Maine's online license portal, GPS Trailmasters for ATV routes, and the ITS system for snowmobile trails. A boat ramp, boat docks, boat rentals, and kayak rentals open the lake for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, with walking trails, hiking, horseshoes, corn hole, a pond, and exceptional birding filling the rest. Offroading is nearby. One hundred fifty-five acres and 3,600 feet of shoreline for six RV sites is extraordinary. Lakeville sits an 80-mile drive northeast of Bangor into genuinely undeveloped northern Maine forest — this is remote country, with the Grand Lake chain, moose, and dark skies, and the ATV and snowmobile networks running for hundreds of miles. Summer and the fall foliage window drive demand, with snowmobile season following. Reserve well ahead.

Moosehead Family Campground

24 RV Sites, 8 Tent Sites

Moosehead Family Campground in Greenville, ME, offers 24 RV sites and 8 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in two categories, back-in 20/30-amp and back-in 20/30/50-amp, each carrying water and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. A bathhouse with showers, a general store, a library, on-site dining, and a playground cover the essentials. Pets are welcome. The water access is what sets the place apart: a marina, boat docks, fishing guides working from the property, plus a pond, creek frontage, walking trails, sport courts, tennis, and basketball, with boating, kayaking, fishing, hiking, biking, and birding. Golf is nearby. The campground sits at 312 Moosehead Lake Road on Route 15, one mile south of Moosehead Lake and the town of Greenville — Maine's largest lake, the largest moose population in the lower 48, and the wilderness canoe routes of the Katahdin-Moosehead region. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Maine's short summer means July and August book far ahead.

Jericho Gateway Family Campground

4 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites

Jericho Gateway Family Campground in Berlin, New Hampshire, offers four back-in RV sites without hookups and seven tent sites across 300 family-operated acres in the White Mountains, with a big-rig-friendly layout taking rigs up to 100 feet and a dump station on site. This is genuine dry camping at the northern gateway to the White Mountain National Forest. Four back-in sites operate without hookups, and the big-rig-friendly layout accommodates rigs to 100 feet — an unusual combination that suits large self-contained coaches. Seven tent sites cover simpler camping. A dump station serves RV guests, and firewood is available on site. Guests should arrive fully self-contained and plan water and power accordingly. The 300 acres are the amenity. Walking trails run the wooded property for hiking and biking, and the family operation means guests deal directly with the owners. The scale gives a real sense of remove that smaller White Mountain campgrounds cannot match. Pets are welcome. Berlin sits in Coos County on NH-16 at the confluence of the Dead and Androscoggin Rivers, 20 miles south of the Canadian border. The Androscoggin carries fishing and whitewater, the Mahoosuc Range offers some of the most demanding hiking in New England, and Dixville Notch's mountain pass is within reach. This is the edge of the Great North Woods, the largest unbroken forest in the northeastern United States. The campground serves the northern New Hampshire season. Summer hiking and fall foliage are the two peak windows, with foliage in late September and early October drawing heavily across the White Mountains. With four RV sites, reserve as far ahead as you can.
