Riverbend Retreat — Reviews

  • Rated5.0out of 5Fantastic!

    A very nice quiet location along the Saco River. Very joyful and helpful camp hosts. Fun things to do while visiting by playing games and petting animals. A very homey welcoming feeling as we arrived. Our host changed our site to a better site and for that change they even gave us free eggs from there hens! Then another host visited at our site with us and gave us really great information on how to go to Portland Head Lighthouse for the lobster roll food truck for our first experience of lobster in Maine! What an awesome lobster roll it was! Thank you for all your hospitality.

    Great campground, lovely staff, clean bathroom and laundry facilities, extra large lots. Very convenient pumping service twice a week. Enjoyed the goats and chickens!

    This place was so nice. I made last minute reservations and was pleasantly surprised at the campground. It’s right on Saco river and a great place to bring kayaks, and reasonably located between Portland and York! Plus you get fresh eggs from the chickens on property!

    The campground was just beautiful, full of trees and very quiet. My dog especially loved swimming in the river. The staff was super friendly and helpful.

    This was a like finding a secret paradise hidden away in the Forrest. Everything about it was magical. The staff were awesome. The kids made friends and kept busy at the park and game room!!

    The campgrounds are quiet, inviting, and scenic. We found the staff to be incredibly welcoming and helpful. Our family was only upset that we weren’t staying longer.

    Stay was great at the tent spots right on the river. Great location with a short drive to downtown areas, disc golf, breweries, and the beach.

    Small space, too close to neighbors, no gravel, just dirt. Showers not very clean without adequate shelf space to put anything. Overall site not very well maintained. Retreat? Just not my idea of one. Would not return.

    Loved the quiet, riverside campsite, and the lovely folks who own/run the camp! The bathrooms were clean, and everything operated well. The child with us loved the young goat, chickens, and guinea fowl, and enjoyed the playground. My friends and I plan to return!

    The woman that was tenting next to our spot seemed to be set up for the entire season. She was very loud and had a TV in her tent that she kept on all night. Was not a quiet spot to be in to relax.

    Riverbend Campground is a hidden gem that offers a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. The serene atmosphere makes it an ideal place to unwind and relax. The campground is well-maintained, and the facilities are clean and comfortable. One of the best features is its convenient location, making it easy to explore the beautiful coast of Maine. Whether you head north to Freeport for shopping and dining or south to Kennebunkport for charming seaside views, there's plenty to see and do. If you're looking for a quiet campground with easy access to coastal adventures, Riverbend is the perfect choice! We will be returning.
