Camping and Maine’s Best Beach – a winning combo

OLD ORCHARD BEACH, MAINE:  Old Orchard Beach is famous for its 7-mile stretch of beautiful sand beach, and for its hotel and motel beachfront lodging accommodations. But did you know that Old Orchard Beach has over 3,400 camping sites? The Old Orchard Beach area is host to eleven unique campgrounds which puts Maine’s best beach in reach for your family vacation and for every budget.

With a variety of camping options from tent sites to full service campgrounds and RV parks, vacationers can bring their family to Maine’s best beach and enjoy a fun and affordable vacation. No other town in Maine offers so many camping opportunities, and no one else has a seven-mile stretch of beach consistently ranked #1 in Maine! To add to that family vacation package, Old Orchard Beach is home to the last remaining beachfront amusement park. So obviously, Old Orchard Beach is the ultimate Family Camping Vacation place in New England.

Most of Old Orchard Beach's campgrounds are full-service resorts complete with swimming pools, outdoor hot tubs, entertainment and recreation buildings, playgrounds, ball fields, miniature golf courses, horseback riding, boating, movies, hayrides, fishing ponds, tennis courts and even waterslides. Laundry service, on-site stores and full service pumping stations are common amenities at these camping resorts. Many offer shuttle service to the nearby Beach during the peak summer season. Families find that the scheduled resort activities at the campground are so much fun - they usually take a day off from the beach and just enjoy the resorts facilities.

Campsites range from large modern sites perfect for recreational vehicles and travel with water/electric hook ups, and 50 amp service, to simple wooded sites perfect for pitching a tent or a pop-up trailer. Sites are available for nightly and weekly rentals. Several resorts offer their own on-site Travel Trailers or Cabins available for rent for the week, the month or the entire season.
