Mascoma Lake Campground, Lebanon

We stayed at Mascoma lake Campground for 6 weeks this summer. We love going there. This was our 5th summer visiting. We stayed in a camper and LOVED it. It was clean the water was very hot. Paul & Jane made our stay special. For our daughters 10 birthday they let us use the rec hall fora small party. She felt very special when Paul and Jane brought up a present for her. Our site was very clean the surrounding campers were quiet. Paul did come up one night and asked some campers to quiet down and when they did not he asked them to leave. The beach is very clean. The boating was spectacular and we can't wait to go back next summer! I was very impressed that while I the few times I was in the office/store Paul and Jane booked sites to soliders for free. A few of my friends coming home from Iraq have called and stayed. DMB

I noticed that some one wrote a few bad reviews about Mascoma Lake Campground. I find them to be untrue. The campground is in very clean condition.They offer more for campers than most campgrounds. Free boating, free weekends for Iraq and Afcanistan troops etc. I feel sorry for the campground, there is no need to be hurt by these folks who are says lies. I have been there many times and I'll be there many more. Rick & Sue and the kids

The campground was very clean and the folks there were friendly There is no alcohol allowed whitch made it a very quiet at night. We enjoyed it there.

Okay...so something's happened to this place. The reviews that I've read are very positive. The location is excellent. The activites are fantastic. This is by far the worst campground that my family and I have stayed at. The brochure and website advertise 600 ft of beachfront; in reality it's about 50 feet of beach and 550 ft of boat slips for seasonal campers. On the weekend, the crowds were extraordinarily rowdy. I mean beyond the normal fun camping crowd. Loud music, profanity, drinking games, sex in the bathrooms. And this wasn't just one unruly camping party. It was many of the campers in the tenting area. The owner came through the area once each evening. He warned the crowd that quiet hours commenced at 11PM and then moved on. Kids were playing in the empty site next to us...they were throwing water at each other using one of the PVC septic system covers...I explained to the boys that it probably wasn't a good idea. Where were the parents? I think were playing a drinking game! The brochure advertises that the sites support 40ft rigs. Hmmm. I wonder where those were. We're in a 30ft Class-C and we got in okay. But at least 4 other trailers had to leave because they couldn't get into their spot. Like the ads say, the park is terraced. This means that you a 10ft wide road running along a fairly steep drop-off. The sites are MAYBE 30 feet deep. It just don't add up! Several of the trailers were, by necessity, reaching into the road. You'd think the owners would cut out just ONE of the very close sites so he could angle the sites making it easier for the larger rigs to get in to place. Alas, such design and customer considerations appear to be beyond the pale of the owners. I am writing this on our last night in this campground. We paid for one more day but my vacation time is WAY to precious to be dealing with this. We're going to find another campground in the morning. Some good will come of this however. The camper next to us brought 3 vehicles with them. Now they'll be able to get two of their vehicles off the road and use our space to park them. If you're 18 years old. If you like loud rap music and drinking games. If you don't care much about swimming or playgrounds or a peaceful camping experience...then this place is for you!

First of all it seemed like no one worked there, we checked multiple times for a few days and no one was ever in the office. We stayed in one of the campers. The heat did not work, there was no hot water and there was a drainage problem with the bath. We were informed after our trip was over that the dishes were washed by the last people (with cold water) and not run through the dishwasher. Who knows it they used soap or not. Also don’t ever give them a security deposit because you’ll never get it back. When checking out no one was around either. It was a big disapointment. This was definitely not worth the money and I would never go back.
