Saco River Hideaway Campground 392 Main Street, Cornish, ME 04020

"We found this campground for my in-laws to spend the summers close by family especially their grandchildren. We knew from the beginning that it was a gay owned campground and had no issue with that, however when we were visiting one weekend there was apparently some gay men’s event going on. There wouldn’t have been an issue if my family wasn’t woken up in the middle of the night to drunken drag queens fighting. The Police had to called to handle the situation ( there is a record of the incident). The next day the owners didn’t even bother to go around and apologize to the people who pay to stay for the season. After that we never brought the kids back and we moved my in-laws to another campground after the season ended."

"This is one of the nicest campgrounds I’ve ever camped at. Clean, well kept, and growing with amazing new sites being made that give privacy in between. Vincent, the owner and operator of the establishment is super nice and wants to ensure every guest feels comfortable. I hugged him when I left because he’s that kind of person. He is the kind of human that sparkles and shines bright. So does this place. The Zen Garden and river walk, it’s all just a perfect Hideaway that I almost don’t want anyone else to know about. LGBTQ+ safe space."

"We recently stayed a couple nights at this campground, on a tent site. Our site was huge, quiet and included water. We highly recommend this campground. The bathrooms were very clean, our neighbors were quiet, the owners were friendly. There was a movie Saturday night that included free snacks. My son loves snacks! We were able to canoe for a short day trip and it was easy access from the campground. We bailed early Sunday am due to rain but can’t wait to see you all next summer! Thank you for a wonderful experience!"

"We stayed here for three nights and wish it had been longer! Our site was wooded and very private. The campground owners were sooo friendly and accommodating and the place was very clean and quiet. If you like to play on the river, it’s the perfect place. We took our paddleboards and went up the river, and kayaks would have been great. They have a nice dock to put in, and it’s a really quiet section of river. The weather didn’t cooperate with us, so hoping we can come back next summer!!"

"Such a great trip! We went in mid August and camped with a tent. Tent spaces were private and large. Bathrooms and hookups are all super new and clean. You can float down the river, fish, or just hike in the nearby preserve right from the campground."
