Patton Pond Campground

Finally - the long anticipated destination - Maine!.  67 days and we are here and in  our campground for the next week.

The ride here was very nice - basically US2 & 3. We still had a very "up and downs" 

We have crossed many bridges on this trip, but none like the Penobscot Narrows Bridge

 
Patton Pond Campground is part of the Encore Collection.  There is a 1/2 mile dirt road to get here and my car shows it it  What color is that car?

As always the same amenities. The best for me is free wifi (and very good signal) and for Big Bob,  lots of TV channels, although he still hooked up the satellite. This is an old park but has been well maintained.  One of the nice things is how they handle garbage.  No dumpster but many garbage cans through out the park that are emptied daily.  There is nothing worse than the overflowing dumpsters that are only emptied once or twice a week.

Store and Office - not to many supplies as the campground closes for the season on Columbus Day

Playground

 
 Rec room

Rental cabins

No pool, but a beautiful pond and a beach area

 

Bath house - this is a large and very clean, however it is the only one.  There are several port-a-pots through the campground, something I would not like to have to use but I think proximity to the water has something to do with it since all the sites down there are not full hook-ups.

Both kayaks and bikes to explore the park availalbe for rent


 

As you know, we have been on the Lobster Trail.  So far the best is from Gateway/Lunt's Lobster Pound in Trenton.

You order, they boil it up right outside

 And he ate it all, as always!

 
We have done lots of day trips to some wonderful little towns.   Hope you enjoy reading about them and seeing their beauty.
