Gray Ghost Camps

"Gray Ghost Camps is a nice cottage experience. It spans a few hundred feet of waterfront, a couple of boat launches, plenty of slips on several docks. The swimming is great. However, the river current can be a bit overwhelming if you leave the shore and swim for the swimming raft (with slide and diving board). We were there in late July, and the fishing was disappointing. My son probably spent 20+ hours fishing from shore and only caught a few chub and one smallmouth bass (decent, 2-3 lb). Free to use are a variety of decent kayaks, some canoes and a couple of stand up paddle boards, which are in rough shape (one missing fins, both taking on water). Plenty of life jackets of all sizes. Firepits riverside. Nice hardwood mill scrap firewood for sale for reasonable fee. Steve and Amy were always available by text to answer questions. Overall, a great experience."

"The cabin was fine for the price which was low compared to other lodgings in the area. No air conditioning but that is not unusual for Maine, although with climate change they may want to rethink that. Ceiling fan made the temperature bearable. If you like seclusion, this is definitely not the place for you, as other cabins are about an arm's length away and there are people everywhere. Room for 4, but only two adults because the queen bed is in a kind of large closet and the bunk beds are only suitable for children. The owners were civil, which seems to be what passes for friendly and/or welcoming in this part of the state."

"I have been coming with my mom and kids for 10 years now and we absolutely love this place. The owners are incredibly friendly (including entertaining my daughter with their chickens), the housekeeping services are awesome (and the woman who cleans is fantastic)! The location is perfect and the amenities they have for the kids are top notch. We love the paddleboards, kayaks, canoes, tunes, and life jackets available for use. 10/10. I would highly recommend."

"This is a great place to stay right on the Moosehead River! Beautiful docks to keep your boat, if you one, or decide to rent one. This place is "As Advertised", book your cabin now! Amy & Steve are wonderful people, we loved Joe's Smelt cabin."

"So I was prompted by google to leave a review regarding “Gray Ghost Camps” this morning… I could probably write 10,000 words or more to express my full enjoyment of this place, but, I will try to refine that to a few sentences that will convey a reasonable, impression and expectation for you. If I HAD to pick “one word?” It would be: “YES,” lol.. If I was to add to that “yes…” I would add, “this is the place you’ve been looking for…” A family owned and operated business that is packed with thoughtful extras. Set on the beautiful Moose River, they offer an old fashioned escape from the stresses of our modern cities and towns. Quiet, relaxing and peaceful. That river flows 24 hours a day and is the “sentinel of serenity.” Lots of wildlife around to stumble upon. Steve and Amy (and family) have put a lot into considering the experience of their guests. Very generous people. I always shop for “value” when looking for a place to stay in Maine. I always leave Gray Ghost Camps thinking: what a great deal! You might find another cabin elsewhere that has a cheaper number on it. But, I doubt you can find any as nicely maintained as these are! Certainly the best overall value I could recommend! Great experience, and great memories to take home with you…"
