For now, we’ll let them stay rent-free and enjoy their riverfront accommodations. We just ask that they keep the chirping down after quiet hours and clean up after themselves.

Stay tuned for future updates on our smallest guests of the season! 🐣

What a great Memorial Day weekend at The Bateman Camps! We officially kicked off the season and couldn't have asked for a better opening weekend. The camps are cleaned up, refreshed, and ready for our next guests.

We had the pleasure of meeting a wonderful couple who stayed with us and even spent some time gold panning along the river and exploring the area. One of those simple Maine experiences that makes this place special.

If you've been thinking about planning a getaway, we still have some availability in June and July. Whether you're looking to relax by the river, explore the mountains, hit the trails, or try your luck at gold panning, we'd love to host you.

Send us a message for availability and come experience Maine with us! 🏕️⛰️
