My husband and I had stayed at Northern Outdoors over two years ago to go snowmobiling (which was fabulous!) and wanted to see what it was like in the summer. We decided to book a tent cabin which was so much fun! Although it rained every night, we were completely...
Northern Outdoors is a great campground. I initially thought it would be more rugged before I got there but it definitely can accommodate pretty much any type of person with it's variety in lodging. The keystone to Northern Outdoors in my opinion is the main lodge. There are just so...
Didn't have the best weather but can't think of a prettier, more well equipped outpost to lay our gear and ATV up to Moosehead. Knowing that it was going to rain and it would be difficult to cook out, I looked for a campground that had easy access to a...
Had a great, great weekend with my old college buddies. We sandwiched two hysterical nights of camping around an outstanding day of rafting on the Penobscot. Perfect weather, great guide, gorgeous scenery (moose included)- it was an incredible trip. Next year's adventure is already in the works...

We had an amazing weekend fly-fishing with Mike Pilsbury (who was incredible!) and camping at Lot 21. We caught a couple nice fish and really enjoyed our day on the water. We relaxed in the evening with a few beers and watching the Bruins at the lodge. All-in-all, it was a...
