There are 3 campsites (which house upto 32 people each), 1 lean to site and 2 cabins all within a quarter mile of eachother and the main ball field.

Depending on your preference, all three options are close by in vicinity. There are also "backcountry" campsites, so if you don't want to listen to other geocachers snore you can head off into the hills and find a spot to camp backpacking style. Link to comment

+Jerseytrex Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 Will they provide firewood or do we need to bring it? Can we bring beer? Alot of camp grounds don't allow alcohol which is understandable after cleaning up Sebago Beach last Spring. <----This is my new favorite. Link to comment

+Packanack Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I know we scrounged from site each time we were there, except when we used main fire ring. Then I think we bought from them. But memory is unclear Link to comment

+MREAGLEWO1 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 nice plan. I would suggest if possible, have dinner in dining hall so there will be no food in the campsites. They are bears in the camp, I have seen them there. Just as precautionary measure since there will be kids attending. Also, do you have any fliers made up yet. I can try to get peple from my Boy Scout troop that is involved with the sport. Link to comment

avroair Posted July 23, 2005 Author Share Posted July 23, 2005 We have 3 tent sites, a lean-to site and a cabin reserved for the weekend. A group can go ahead and rent any of the other cabins. If you plan on attending (even if it is just for the Sunday) please post a note on the website so we can figure out food and numbers. Also, please register a reservation for a tentsite or lean-to in advance. GONE Caching!!! Link to comment
