Nothing but great things to say about the lodging and staff. We stayed in a Cozy Cabin for 5 nights. It was very clean and even quieter. Looking forward to returning.

We recently stayed at Northern Outdoors during our snowmobiling trip, and it was a fantastic experience. The cabins were comfortable, cozy, and exactly what we needed after a day of riding. Each evening, it was great to come back to such welcoming accommodations.The restaurant at Northern Outdoors offered delicious meals, and the friendly staff made dining there even more enjoyable. Everyone we interacted with was helpful, welcoming, and genuinely made us feel at home.Overall, Northern Outdoors provided excellent accommodations, great food, and outstanding service. Highly recommended for anyone planning a trip in the area. We'll definitely be staying here again on our next visit!

Located in the heart of Maine, the dream place for peace of mind for river descent, snowmobiling and especially off-roading. Whirlpool bath to relax with everything within reach. The staff really deserves 5 stars for their good humor, their respect and their good manners. Thank you Northern Outdoors for welcoming your new and returning customers. 🙂

Great accommodations, fantastic staff, soaking in the hot tub while it's snowing, I mean come on. All around can't beat it. We've tried over the past 20 years and just keep coming back. Well done.

Love staying at Northern Outdoors in the Forks. All the staff is so friendly and on top of any problem. We got to our room and for some reason the heat wasn't working after I called the front desk with in 15min the maintenance guys came up and gave us 2 space heaters which was more than enough to keep the room at 70. Can't wait to stay there again in 26

We stayed for two nights . Rented snowmobiles and went to Greenville . Great time. Room was good, I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the needed hot shower wouldn’t drain so we ended up standing in still water. Hopefully it was fixed for the next guests! Other than that everyone is super friendly, good beer!

We flew up from TN to go snowmobiling and knew nothing about Maine. We lucked out with Northern Outdoors. The cozy cabin had all the necessities, very secluded, clean and well maintained. The lodge was a nice touch to get good food and local brewed beer. The gravel road is pretty steep to get to the back cabins but was not problem in a mitsubishi highlander. The staff was very friendly. Jack

We had a lovely stay. The cabin was clean and comfortable, the outdoor hottub very welcome after our hike, and the food and beer delicious, as always. We will try to go every autumn!

Stopped for lunch to and from Quebec. Pulled pork sandwich was excellent, fries were superior. Able to get GF bun for hamburger. Server coping cheerfully with large crowd. Will plan future trips to be sure we are here at mealtime!!!

Great three night staying in the tent/cabins by the river. Went rafting down the Kenny Beck River with our river guide Erik who did an exceptional job! The entire crew was amazing and lunch on the river was absolutely top-notch.I will definitely be coming back for rafting and other activities.

This really is the best spot in West Forks for an all around great family vacation!Northern Outdoors has it all, beautiful cabins, great food, hot tub, pool, onsite brewery, lakeside hangouts, and PLENTY of outdoor activities on the property for all ages - it truly is a well rounded outfitter and resort for the whole family.We took a crew rafting on the Kennebec with Northern Outdoor’s 2023 Rookie Guide of the Year, Matt Gambino, and it was phenomenal. Very professional and loads of fun!My favorite piece about this outfitter is that they offer whitewater rafting (for 3 different rivers) and powersport rentals with access to the trail system within walking distance of their cabins - it’s perfect.The facility is clean, the staff morale is high and the fun that can be had at Northern Outdoors is unlimited.

Beautiful resort with all the extras right on site. I highly recommend whitewater rafting. They have a very professional guide staff with tons of knowledge about the river. Matt Gambino was our guide and did a fantastic job. Everyone was welcoming, and the food was fantastic. They even have their own brewery.
