You and your family are totally cared for in our deluxe wilderness camping getaway. Your kids will love camping; we guarantee it! Enjoy a relaxing day exploring the beauty, scenery and wildlife of Indian Pond, a 9-mile long wilderness lake rich in logging history. You’ll camp in comfortable platform tents along the lake’s shore and fall asleep to a star-filled sky and the sound of waves gently lapping at the shore. You’ll awake to the aroma of fresh coffee, a hearty breakfast, and loons crying in the distance. (We also offer an identical Adults-Only Wilderness Camp experience. It sells out because it’s so much fun. We do this so that you can enjoy your vacation with other families and adults of similar interests.)
| Itinerary | Description |
| Tuesday | On the first day, you will travel in comfort by motorized pontoon boat to our waterfront campsite on Indian Pond, complete with tents already set up on sturdy platforms and a central cooking and social area. Once at the campsite, you have the opportunity to use kayaks on the lake or explore a nearby inlet by pontoon boat to search for local wildlife. Moose, deer, osprey, and loons are often sighted. After a deluxe cold cut picnic lunch, we’ll grab inner tubes and motor up to Ledge Falls at the north end of the lake. Here we’ll spend a fun-filled afternoon tubing and body surfing in the pools and drops beneath the falls. Later in the afternoon, we’ll return to the campsite for hor d’oeuvres and beverages. A roaring campfire is built and the guides prepare a magnificent lobster feast complete with Maine mussels steamed in wine, fresh corn-on-the-cob and all the fixin’s. It’s a light-hearted evening of stories, jokes, our infamous wilderness sauna, and perhaps even a moonlit dip in the lake. |
| Wednesday | The next morning, after a hearty pancake and egg breakfast, we’ll motor 3 miles to the south end of the lake, where you’ll begin the exciting 12 mile descent of the Kennebec River Gorge. Enjoy a gourmet grilled riverside lunch on your full day of whitewater rafting on the Kennebec River. |
| Season | Tuesdays/Wednesdays June 19-August 28 |
| Meeting Location & Time | The Forks Resort Center 9:00am |
A fee of $4 per person to cover road access to the river and a levy paid to the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife will be added to each rafting guest.
