“Fantastic park. We only stayed here one night but regret not spending more time at the park and the area. Primarily a seasonal resort, but plenty of sites for short term stays. Our site was a large pull through with plenty of room between each site. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The amenities were outstanding and the price reasonable with a Good Sams discount. In addition, a shuttle that will take you to/from the beach literally stops at the park. Upon arrival, we took the shuttle to the beach, which is spacious and very nice. We loved every aspect of our stay in Old Orchard Beach and this park. Will definitely return.” -The Shaffers, Good Sams Review
