| We used to go to a family camp when I was growing up, and I'm after something with the same vibe but more luxurious. I prefer the coast (Down East beaches or Mid Coast). Looking for a place with lots of activities, good food, on/near a beach. We are a family of 5 looking to go for two weeks in August. What do you suggest? TIA! |

| Maine doesn't seem like a resort kind of place. |

| The Samoset is the only resort I know of in Maine. |

We love Kennebunk (where the beaches are) and Kennebunkport (where the restaurants are). You might try Hidden Pond for a tucked away upscale camp feel and then sign the kids up for "camp" at KBIA (Kennebunk Beach Improvement Association). My kids do a few weeks of "camp" at KBIA and have enjoyed learning to sail, as well as swimming, golf, tennis, etc.

| Migis Lodge! Lovely Dirty-Dancing style family resort with tons of activities and great family-style dining options right on Lake Sebago. |

I second Hidden Pond. So wonderful. And, the food was outstanding. |

Heard about this one on the mid coast but haven't been myself.

| Try Lodge on the Cove. Owned by same people as Hidden Pond but much cheaper. Also LOVED Spruce Point Inn in Boothbay Harbor |

This looks awesome, OP. I know someone who had been years ago, she said it looks updated, and you can't beat the kids' daily activities. Also, campfires, lake, dining, etc.:
