Naples KOA

The Naples Campground is now under new ownership and has changed to KOA Campground. However, the exceptional staff is still exceptional. There are activities and events almost daily at this lovely campground and the kids are sure to enjoy it. It’s still owned by a family and they’re putting their all into the place to make it great. Be sure to try the homemade food inside the main office. Lovely people!

Love this place so much. Great place for the family. And it’s family owned. The staff is so nice and friendly. Strongly suggest this instead of loon haven

I started camping at Naples Campground Labor Day weekend of 2009 along with their end of season multi-​week special rate (a real value and great way to get your feet wet if you are considering becoming a «Seasonal» camper). I had bought this tiny camper that was intended for traveling, was paying for storage and hated towing. I have friends with vacation homes in the area and figured it would be worth trying it out for a few weeks. I never left, my tiny travel trailer has been there ever since.
I thought it would be awkward to be the single girl with a dog at a «Family Campground», but that wasn’t the case. Everyone took me in to their families, so I’m never alone unless I want to be. Since that first 2009 season, I’ve made great friends, had great times and have come to consider Naples Campground my second «home». There is something to do every weekend! Although not a parent, I even enjoy helping out with the kids activities. The wet hayrides are a blast. There’s always a themed event going on like Luaus, Pirates Weekend, you name it! Saturday nights are especially fun for the adults (although the kids are welcome too) there is always something going on at the Rec. Hall from dances, to karaōke and live bands.
When I want to peace out on my own, I head to Sebago Lake State Park and hang out with my dog (you can pick up a free day pass at the campground store). There are lots of things to do in the immediate area of camp – The Lakes-​Long Lake and Sebago and countless others for boating, canoeing, swimming, etc. Shops, Bars and Restaurants and the Causeway are about a mile away from Camp. There is a Drive In movie theater nearby also. The Fryeburg Fair and White Mountains are a short drive as well.
I can’t say enough about this campground in the limited number of words allowed for this review! The campground owners are really special people who treat their customers like family and provide personalized customer service! Happily anticipating another season…

First you need to know i don’t like camping. I want to be on a beach with frozen drink with little umbrellas in them.
My husband really wanted to do the whole camping thing and my Mom had a camper she was glad to see used. First we looked at Loon’s Haven next door. They are on the lake but the place was a terrible mess. At this point i started telling my husband how much i really didn’t want to camp. He insisted i look at one more place. So he drove me through Naples Campground.
My very first impression was that it seemed quiet (big plus), it was very very clean (huge deal for me) we have 2 daughters and the 2 play grounds with kids there playing was very appealing and my girls prefer a pool over a lake. So i gave in.
The next year we brought everything up and set up our site. I kept telling my husband «i’m not paying for rocks to make it look better i’m only here one year» or «i’m not adding to the fireplace we are only here one year».
I am now happily on my second year here as a seasonal and are quite sure we will be here for a third year.
The owners, Pam and Conrad, couldn’t be nicer people. The camp store is amazing with fantastic pizza and BBQ that could give any restaurant a run for it’s money (people from the campground next door come over here). It doesn’t have access to the lake but the pool is pristine and we are not fans of swimming in the lake anyway. They offer kids activities on Saturday and movies on Friday night. Plenty to do for adults too, from BINGO to dancing to a live band. Rarely do they ask for any money for any of the activities offered. (when they do ask for money it is to buy a tshirt for tie dying if you don’t have your own or to buy a pumpkin if you need one for pumpkin carving)
The other campers are very friendly. The age ranges are all over from the retired couples to the families with small kids. There are a few families where you can easily find 3 generations camping here. It is a place i feel comfortable sending my kids out on their own.
So I am not a convert to camping, I am currently looking at airline prices for a trip to Costa Rica but i am happy here. I spend most of my summers here splashing in the pool, hiking, walking into town for lunch on a porch overlooking Long Lake. We even just invested in 2 kayaks. I expect we will be looking to buy a larger camper in the next few years.
I would recommend this to anyone!
As an update… we have bought a larger camper, i never got my trip to Costa Rica. 2 more months before camping starts again!
