Vacationing With Family At Maine Campgrounds

By Harold Ellis


Summertime is the time of year that many families take vacations. They spend months planning the perfect trip that will make everyone in their household happy. For some people, that translates into taking a cruise or traveling overseas to Europe and elsewhere. For others, it means packing up and heading to one of the Maine campgrounds located close to the state's beaches and forests. Many of the locations today have amenities and securities that people need and expect to stay entertained and relaxed during their time away from home.

When you make a reservation at a campground in locations like Old Orchard Beach, ME, you may be expected to indicate whether you want a site for a tent or an RV. Tent sites are set up so that you can pitch a tent big enough for you and your family to sleep in at night. These areas are typically cleared of grass and brush and also have a place to build a fire or light a barbecue.

However, some campers disdain the idea of sleeping on the ground, particularly if it is cold outside or they are afraid of bears and snakes. You could keep more comfortable and to some degree safer by sleeping in an RV. Recreational vehicles continue to be one of the more popular modes of transportation for campers who wish to experience the rugged outdoors without the risks associated with sleeping exposed to the elements.

This option also could appeal to individuals who want the convenience of electricity, indoor plumbing, and even TV and Internet services. The areas are set up so that you can connect your RV to any of these services that are available. Some of the services are included with the fee. Others cost extra. The entire site typically also will be big enough for you to place a picnic table and barbecue outside your vehicle.

Along with ensuring that your family has access to modern comforts, you also may be concerned about security and protection for your children during your stay. You particularly may want to keep your kids away from the waterfront on the beach or near an open creek. It could help you feel more comfortable if you know that the facility offers some sort of safeguard geared toward making the water inaccessible to small children.

Some locations provide lifeguards during the daytime for families wanting to swim at the beach or in the creek, for example. Other sites cordon off the area and provide visitors with a key to a gate or entrance to the waterfront. Some also provide around-the-clock security that monitors the area to keep visitors safe.

All of the amenities you expect and need can be researched and found on many of these resorts' websites. Privately owned campground businesses may have their own websites. Others that are managed by the state may be found through the state's wildlife and parks website. Some also make available online registration and payment services.

Camping in Maine can be the ideal vacation for you and your family. You can make a reservation now for the summertime if you know that you and your loved ones want to travel to this state. You can also check out what kinds of amenities and conveniences are available to you once you arrive.
