Spacious Skies Balsam Woods Campground is a hidden paradise of a campground located right in the heart of Maine, just a half hour south of Moosehead Lake, the largest lake in Maine, and 60 miles as the crow flies from the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail, Mt. Katahdin, in Baxter State Park.
Great campground and sites. Clean bathrooms. Was there recently and while booking on the phone, we were asked if we wanted to "lock it in". I thought that was strange since I had just given them my credit card to reserve the site. OH NO, that credit card only means you can get a site but not that one, unless you "lock it in" for an additional $30.00 above the site fee. AM I GETTING HOSED HERE? I mentioned to the nice girl on the phone that, last year you didn't charge that fee. What a shame..... I will be looking at all my options next time, for a campground that really "wants my business" !
This campsite if very well maintained, well laid out and nice to visit. The sites are evenly spaced and ours was flat when we visited in September 2023 in a 30' motorhome. Only reason why only 3 stars: arrived late September 1 hour before check in, the park had to be 80% empty but they still insisted they had to charge us a $25 early admittance fee. The amenities were closed due to the time of year, so this was a surprise - but I think you get that with these 'chains' - all policy and no room for customer service.
We absolutely loved camping here!!! The sites were spacious, the staff very friendly and VERY clean bathrooms! Decent Rec room, pool table, air hockey. Lots of fun things for kids if you have them. We’ll definitely go back.
We love staying at Spacious Skies. It is conveniently located to just about everything. The campground is always well kept. The office staff goes above and beyond to ensure that your stay is what you had anticipated and wanted. They are so kind and gracious.👍👍
What can I say. This place is wonderful. Right from the first phone call. This is my first time at this campground but I will certainly come back. I was so thankful they were still open. The bathrooms are spotless and nicer than some hotels I have stayed at. The lots are very roomy and spaced very well. I played horseshoes and hung in the rec room some. They had a Halloween theme so we decorated our little campers. We even had trick or treaters! Planning to come back for a week. Thank you for caring about your campers!
