This camp lodge is absolutely beautiful and feels like stepping back into a simpler time. It has a charming, nostalgic atmosphere that reminds me of a classic 1950s getaway. The grounds were incredibly clean, and it was clear that the staff put a lot of thought and care into every detail. The welcoming camping atmosphere made our stay truly special. We loved our experience and can’t wait to come back again!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Camp Deforest was such a wonderful stay! The cabins are beautifully maintained with so much attention to detail, making everything feel cozy, clean, and welcoming. The staff was absolutely awesome, friendly, helpful, and truly made the experience even better. Plus, it’s so close to beautiful Camden, one of the prettiest towns in Maine. While you’re there, Fanny’s Bistro, Fresh and Co is a must-visits for amazing food, and don’t leave without stopping by River Ducks Ice Cream for the perfect sweet treat. Definitely a place worth experiencing!

This was one of the best stays and experiences we’ve had. The property was very clean, well maintained, and exactly as shown in the pictures. The room was comfortable, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the overall experience felt welcoming and peaceful. The staff was friendly, responsive, and very helpful throughout our stay. The only feedback I have is about the café. The coffee and food quality could be improved. We preferred exploring nearby local coffee shops and cafés instead.
