My son and I were travelling through Houlton and got a tent site here. Highway was a bit noisey however I always figure for that with ear plugs. The host (owner) was very nice and helped us with a late check in. Then was super nice and helpful when we had trouble with the washer when trying to get a quick load of laundry done next morning before we had to checkout. Thank you so much ! You all are awesome ! If in the area again, I will definitely stay at this campground.

We dropped in last minute in hopes they had vacancy for the night before we crossed back into Canada the next day. Sites are large and well maintained and the campground is well laid out. We were greeted by a smile and after check-in we were escorted right to our campsite. Will definitely stay here again in the future!

We had to unexpectedly rearrange travel plans and ended up at the Houlton KOA for just one night passing through. Michelle, the owner, was super friendly and very accommodating with our last minute reservation and late arrival. The place was really nice and we enjoyed walking around the nature trails. The bathrooms were immaculate. Highly recommend this KOA and would definitely stop again in the future.

Michelle, the owner, could not have been more friendly or helpful. She welcomed us warmly, made check-in quick and easy, and brought us to our site. This is a beautiful property, and the landscaping and upkeep is top-notch. Most of the rigs here are very large. There is PLENTY of space at sites (when have you seen that in a review?) Nice playground, bouncy pad, dog park and nature trails. All picnic tables are brand new and easy to clean. Beautiful, large Rec Room with all sorts of games. The pool was not open, as Michelle explained that the company which installed the pool did not do so according to Maine requirements. This is in the process of being resolved. The updated bathrooms were clean. The WIFI was STRONG! We were sorry to leave, and very much enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended! Thank you!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Houlton KOA! From the moment we arrived, the owners made us feel right at home — they are incredibly friendly, helpful, and go above and beyond to ensure every guest has a great experience. Their warm hospitality truly sets this campground apart. The location is phenomenal — nestled in a peaceful, scenic area that offers a perfect mix of nature and convenience. The grounds are beautifully maintained, with lush greenery, clean sites, and plenty of space to relax and unwind. And here's the cherry on top: the WiFi is stellar! Fast, reliable, and perfect for working remotely or streaming after a day of outdoor fun — a rarity for campgrounds. Highly recommend this KOA to anyone passing through or looking for a peaceful getaway. We’ll definitely be back!

This is a great little campground with very friendly staff, large camping lots, and great walking paths through beautiful woods. We stayed here when traveling across the border in both directions, as it is very close to the I95 and the border crossing. The new patio sites are really well done! One of our more enjoyable stays this year.

The owners were very kind and friendly and some of the property was nice. When we booked the reservation, it was known that we had a 36' Class A. We were book on a sloping site that was somewhat soft/muddy, which created a problem with the stabilizers and we were booked at a buddy site without any disclosure of the same. We avoided spending time at the KOA and used it as storage until we needed to move to our new temporary home at Moosehead Lake. We did receive lots of text messages about power outages, water outages, etc, among other issues. Unfortunately, we will not be returning. Following up: My husband and I happened to visit the KOA on a whim and well after we booked a reservation. We did not visit the site prior to booking. When we did visit the site, we went to the main office to disclose our concern of facing another RV (buddy site) and the slope. We were told that we could not relocate to another site because they were either booked or the deluxe sites were not for long term stays. We were stuck as we had no where else to go with the RV. Therefore, we did not know about the issues at the time of booking. It would have been nice to have full disclosure at the time of booking that we were being assigned to a buddy site. Unfortunately, the response from the KOA does not acknowledge the issues. The KOA simply justified their position.

I had a great time here. The sites are spacious and comfortable. And checking in was straightforward. Their camp store is well stocked with the essentials. And the staff and other campers were all very friendly! People would wave hello and say good morning as they walked by my site.They have wifi available too. Seemed very family-friendly. The only slight issue is I found the campsite numbers were not easy to read. I arrived at night, which definitely contributed. But I think they could benefit from bigger signs. Wasn't a huge deal though.

This is a super nice KOA. The owners are awesome. It’s one of the nicest KOAs I’ve ever been to. We got the premier spot with a patio and nice sized bbq grill. We showed up at the spot and had an empty propane bottle which was quickly remedied by a nice man who gave us his personal propane y tilt he office came by to replace it. That was so nice of him. The dog park is a nice size and our two dogs played there every day. One of the owners came by our spot to deliver the firewood we purchased and was playing with our dog. When in the area you must stay here. 5 stars all the way.

Stayed in one of the glamping tents. It was almost akin to staying at a tiny hotel room. It was cozy and welcoming and had basically everything we needed for the weekend. It even came with towels, a few pots n pans, and dining plates/utensils. It has a sink; however, it was not yet hooked up when we stayed (still a bit early for tourist season). The attendants there were actively engaged and obviously take pride in this kampground. Lots of activities available for kids. I'll definitely be returning here when I decide to go exploring The County again.

This campground has the most lush, large, clean, level sites. We enjoyed having a pull through "buddy" site, which extended our combined outdoor space. The dog park was very clean. The owners gave personal service. It is a wonderful place and I hope to return.

We stayed at the KOA in Houlton,MAINE, we loved the spacious RV sites. We had a picnic table and fire pit that came in handy. The owners of this KOA are fairly new owners and are doing a fabulous job at maintaining the RV park, they are so nice and considerate, very friendly. We sat at a campfire with them one night and really enjoyed our time with them. We plan on coming back every year to stay at this KOA while we visit our family. Thank you Dave and Michelle

Great KOA Super nice couple owns and runs this park. From the time we arrived through our entire visit here we where impressed. Clean park with sites that vary from seasonal, RV spots, tent camping and they even have a Yurt for nightly rental. Playground and rec center was always clean and kept nice. I would say this park would be great for families as well as retirees.

This is by far one of the best campsites we have stayed at and we KOA ALOT! The grounds are so well maintained, it looks more like a golf course. Beautiful ponds. The owners Dave & Michelle are extremely friendly, hardworking and helpful. Definitely stay here if you are in the area. Thanks Dave & Michelle for making our stay so memorable
