Put simply they put to many sites along the river. Way to close to your neighbor. Elderly drivers beware of kids literally everywhere on bikes. Which was fine by me and my two kids but others seemed a bit freaked out. Couldn't burn there store wood even after splitting very small. To green smokes like crazy. Dogs everywhere. Owner seemed...

I was a little worried about some of the reviews when we booked this campground but we had a great time. Grounds were clean everyone was friendly. It was quite at night. We stayed for 4 nights in August 2012. We stayed with our 3 young children and they had a blast. They loved renting the bikes and riding around... More

Very poor reception of the owner and employees, owner full of himself that has no concept of customer service. We brought with us the wood pallet because we have the right in the U.S., we even looked on the website of campground to see if there was a note about it and there was nothing either. The owner made ​​us... More

We camped for 5 days along the river. We had a great time canoeing down the Saco River. Our site was quite large. We did not find it noisy at all perhaps because we had one of the sites along the river. We will definitely be back. We have camped at this campground for the past 10 years and find... More

Camping site should not cost 40$ per night. It is too expansive period. If it does, it would expect it to be close to perfect, which "Saco River" is defiantly not. It was too noisy, and the staff could not force the sites rules, such as silent hours and bone fires off hours. As a result, I hardly slept and... More

We visit North Conway on a regular basis in the fall and have camped here the last couple of trips. It is a nice well kept campground and very close to Settler's Green (my wife doesn't have to go far for her shopping fix) Some of the sites are beside the Saco river but unfortunately are usually taken when we...

My husband and I stayed @ Saco River last October. Although it rained ALL weekend we enjoyed our stay. We had a corner site where the beach is located. Never had a problem with any flooding of the river, i enjoyed walking my dog down on the beach during our stay. The staff and people were very nice and sociable.... More

Tent camped at one of the (2) alpine huts Mid-aug '09. Had a great time. The huts are great, I think it would be beneficial if they added more covered areas at camping sites. Would definitely stay again. Gotta be careful of critters, squirrels, chipmunks, red squirrels, raccoons and ....skunks. We survived but the skunks did freak me out. You... More
