Spacious Skies Campgrounds - Walnut Grove

"I talked to someone who told me someone bought a camper in August at the campground and it was already paid for the season from the people she was buying it from. The campground made her pay September and October anyway. Would not give the money back to the people selling camper. Who charges twice for a site. On top of that they made all the seasonal campers take down there decks and screen houses. They are not allowed to have them now. So a whole bunch of them left the campground. I do not recommend going there. I have had other friends buy campers in middle of season and not had to pay. You are the first campground I ever saw do this."

"Spacious skies - walnut Grove is a hidden gem in Alfred Maine! Nice welcoming small campground with all the amenities of actives of the big campgrounds. Very clean and well maintained. The young couple that runs this campground are welcoming, accommodating, and very friendly! They run all the planned activities as well as maintain the bathrooms and grounds. The camp sites are very spacious and there are nice aged trees throughout that provide plenty of shade on those hot summer days. The price for a full hook site is priced fairly which is what continues to bring us back here. We stayed Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends 2023 and both stays were excellent! Thank you for the opportunity to stay at a beautifully maintained campground! The young couple that runs and maintains everything here are lovely and very hard workers!! Thank you again and we hope to see you again next summer!! Sincerely, The O’Reilly (Rhyan and Sean ) and the Mueller (Kellie and Dave) family"

"Update #1: after the entire campground emptied on Monday, the voltage issue recovered a bit (as expected) and we were able to proceed with a bit more normalcy, but we still lost power a few times. Original: Our first visit here, on Labor Day weekend: nice enough campground, most sites are quite large. If you have kids (which we do not), this place is great with the jump pad, nice pool, playground, etc. It was very busy for the holiday weekend but never felt cramped. We unfortunately seem to have gotten the worst luck site on the entire property. We chose a full hookup 30A site that was at the end of a row and seemingly would be quiet and private (site #60) as we were going to be doing some computer work. Driving in, we drove by some very nicely upgraded sites: new gravel, nicely mowed, etc. once we got to the end of the row to our site, it had clearly recently been left by a seasonal camper. No new gravel, some trash (including construction debris), and a sad, unkept flower garden. There was power issues from the beginning. Thank goodness for our Progressive Industries EMS-PT30X or who knows how much more damage could’ve been done to our camper. The site had very low voltage and would keep tripping the power off. We were never able to run the AC even once. And on Sunday night (when the campground was at its busiest), we couldn’t even run a fan and one set of lights. In fact, it got to the point we just turned the breaker off completely. Earlier in the day, the manager had offered that we could move but it was only a 50A site in an undesirable location and moving was just incredibly inconvenient when we were more than halfway through our stay already. He then offered a small discount for the troubles only after I had asked for it. If we wanted to boondock, we would’ve prepared much better for it and would’ve went somewhere we didn’t have to pay. Very very unhappy, certainly ruined our weekend. The outdated electrical infrastructure at this campground (or at least that site) very clearly and desperately needs to be upgraded—I just hope there is no permanent damage to our 2 year old camper."

"Perfect campground and NOT overcrowded!! Booked a family camping vacation Saturday to a Thursday! Our kids had a blast between the pool, Jump pad, Recreation room, basketball hoop and park! They always had something to do! Sites are spacious, staff is friendly. We will definitely be back the next time we camp in Maine!"

"Beautiful campground nestled amongst the beautiful Maine scenery. Lots of seasonal campers; we chose this campground because we were able to book a single night stay on a weekend. That turned out to be just a bonus, what a family friendly getaway! Great pool with diving board, huge jump pad for many kids to enjoy at once, lots of open space, kan jam and horseshoes, basketball, arcade, so many fun activities included! Staff was friendly, bathrooms are updated and clean (FREE showers!), laundry on site, even the seasonal campers were friendly and kind. Nice size sites, we were tucked into the trees which was a reasonable walk to all the activities, and overall, the campground is quiet and peaceful. Really enjoyed our stay here, offers a great experience at a reasonable rate!"
