One of my favorite locations to tent, the check in is fast and easy. The park ranger, and the maintenance team is on top of the game. The park is clean at all times. Outhouses are available at every camping site and always clean and stocked. There is also a comfort station where you can clean your dishes and take a shower, ea shower is accessable for wheelchair users. There are also two boat launching areas, a kids playground, volleyball, basketball area and a public small beach.

Lily Bay State Park has held a special place in our hearts for nearly 45 years. It’s where countless family memories have been made — from early morning swims and lazy afternoons by the lake, to quiet evenings under the stars. The lakefront campsites are absolutely beautiful, offering the perfect backdrop for peaceful, sun-filled days. The campground is always clean and well cared for. It’s more than just a campground — it’s part of our family story. See you next year, Lily Bay!

My wife and I drove from Brunswick to Lily Bay State Park on the strength of many positive reviews. We now realize that the bulk of the positive reviews are written by people who are fortunate enough to camp in this beautiful site. It is, unfortunately, less than ideal for day visitors. The public beach is small with a limited number of picnic tables and grills. On the day we visited (mid-July 2025), it was mild and clear, but so windy that a cookout was really out of the question. It was also abundantly clear that a lot of geese had spent time in and around the beach. It is unquestionably a beautiful location (although what's with the dog statue?), but best suited for people who have campers and other support equipment.

Absolutely stunning! My friends & I loved every minute of our trip. Definitely have to come back next year.

No matter what time of year our state Park is absolutely beautiful. I enjoy kayaking, hiking and cross country skiing here. The camping sites are spacious with views of Moosehead Lake. Everything is pristine and family friendly.

What a wonderful hiking trail through a state park. Trail was well marked and managed, it was clean and interesting as we were on a trail that connected one camp ground to another.

Nice walk thru the woods. Natural trail with inclines and declines, roots and rocks. Numerous spurs to beautiful outlooks onto Moosehead Lake. Several coves. This route is a loop back using the paved road from the end of the trail back to the trailhead at the recreational area/ beach.

Nice level camp site. A little tight with tree branches getting in, but no real issues. Water and dump station available plus nice updated bath house. Nice beach area for swimming with no lifeguard present. Area with dock for getting boat in and out. Nice playground near campsites. Junior ranger program the kids enjoyed with coloring/activity Book and junior ranger patch.

Loved it here! I was only planning one night but stayed 3, because it was so beautiful and perfect. Get a spot along the water if possible. The views are amazing. Wildlife everywhere and appear to be quite comfortable around humans. Outhouses are clean and located pretty close to all campsites. You’ll want to drive to the shower house though, it’s up the road a bit. Super clean and plenty of them available. There’s a hiking trail between this campground and the one next door. Walk it! It’s awesome.
