Choosing a camp in Maine
Summer camps in Maine are the classic American sleepaway article: residential camps on the lakes around Belgrade, Bridgton and Fryeburg, where cabins, waterfronts and multi-week sessions follow a formula polished over a century.
Families choose Maine for exactly that tradition — pine woods, cold clear lakes and a camp culture that treats independence, not entertainment, as the point of the summer.
