List of parks located in Maine, an important part of America's Parks

A great place to hike - Great diversity on the two main trails. One issue is the standing water on the Pond Trail prior to exiting. Need to work on drainage. Hearing the sound of the water on the hiking trail is excellent. Since the trail finally got marked it is so much more pleasant. Great place to enjoy what Downeast Maine offers.

A romantic view - There is nothing i love more than to look over the harbor. Camden offers a wonderful dining experience and quaint harbor viewing. Mount Battie has spectacular views, great shopping, wonderful art museums and the air or romance all around.

7/20/2011 Reid State Park by Allison Lee Stanley

Heaven on Earth - Reid State Park has a little of everything. They offer 3 miles of hiking trails, ledges to climb and explore, 2 very beautiful beachs with surf, a lagoon area, which is great for the kiddos and a wonderful park manager, Samantha Wilkinson! Growing up in Arrowsic (sister island), I visited Reid often! Being at the park has helped me in many ways. Relaxation is top priority. It has a very clean and comforting atmosphere and the staff is great!

a deeply cared for jewel - We live in Belfast and have visited the park for 40 years. The park is always improving, always cared for beautifully, and never over used. Thank you to the staff who truly care for this park much much better than other places I have seen. The love of the staff and their hard work shows in every inch of the park. Thanks to you all!

9/23/2010 Moose Point State Park by Ralph & Christine (from UK)

A great place for a break - A wonderful place to relax. Very tranquil and a great place to break a journey for a while. Great views, very peaceful and enjoyable walking trails with lots of wildlife.

8/18/2010 Quoddy Head State Park

How far can you go - Lighthouse is interesting and being furthest east spot in USA is novel. Very nice place to visit if you like remote areas. Lots of walking and beautiful scenery. Hit or miss for fog which cuts down on viewing but is an amazing experience when it rolls in so quickly. Know where you are before it rolls in. While walking to the shore a huge porcupine decided to walk in front of me. Bring a camera!

8/8/2010 Moose Point State Park

Best of Maine - We stopped at this park on our way to Bar Harbor, and what a great place it was. So quiet, clean, wonderful playground for my children, it just smelt like Maine (pine trees). I will remember it always!

7/16/2010 Peaks-Kenny State Park by Ton

25 years going here - Since my children were very young we have gone to this park, first to visit the beach (which is a nice combination of sand and grass with a playground and plenty of picnic tables) and then to camp. Nothing beats this park for youngsters and adults who want to camp--no frills, no video arcades, no pool--just camping-with-the-family fun! Rent canoes, hike (nice but not challenging trails, explore the woods.

7/7/2010 Lake Saint George State Park by Maine Lover

Refreshing! - We happened upon this lake just by chance as we were traveling back roads. The grounds were clean except for some smelly goose poop. The bath house was clean and spacious. The lake itself was most refreshing! Great place for kids and adults alike. Lots of shade and plenty of picnic areas for those wanting to spend the day.

7/18/2008 Lake Saint George State Park by mom in Maine!

Perfect for kids - This park is wonderful for each one of my 5 children. There is a playground for the younger ones with sand to play in, there is a choice of the shaded water area or the more open beach feeling spots. both are equally beautiful. The Bathrooms can be seen by any spot on shore wich is another plus if travelling as a family. My only warning would be to know that untill your in deeper water the bottom is very rocky,I would bring water shoes!!
