Part of an early 19th century farming community which faded into history well over a hundred years ago. Since then, it has been used exclusively for hunting, trapping and timber harvest. Other then a few scattered seasonal hunting camps, this is a privately owned uninhabited / undeveloped tract of land on the Eastern banks of the Seabasticook River watershed. Learn more about this land: Primitive Tent Camping within a mixed wood forest. Located ten miles East of Waterville, Maine or Six miles West of Unity, Maine. The Sebasticook Millennium Green is a terraced 207 acre forest with over 18 miles of trails. Vehicle access is via a seasonal town road with parking a short walk from campsites. There are four unimproved sites with picnic tables and fire rings that will only accommodate one tent. These sites are accessible with a regular vehicle and located a short distance from the marginally maintained (dirt) town road. We try to provide firewood for the sites when possible and campers are welcome to gather downed wood to use. There is a fifth site (ridge) that is a mile hike through the woods or accessible via 4wd vehicle, this site has room for four tents, has a large firepit, three picnic tables and an outhouse.Tent Camping within a mixed wood forest.Located ten miles East of Waterville, Me. or Six miles West of Unity, Me.

Great little wooded offroading trails if you have the vehicle for it (absolutely not required). I appreciated that it wasn't a big flat campsite with everything all prepped for you, my experience felt more like a true camping trip. Having the fire pit available on site was all I needed! Would definitely go back.

Just find something else

Tent

I'm sure Bruce is a good guy, and his communication was really good. However, the campsites leave a lot to be desired. Essentially they are just two spots in the woods, accessible by a dirt road and a short logging road. There's a stone fire ring and a picnic table. But there's really no reason to be here. It's a little odd. I feel like I could have pulled off the highway and found a dirt road into the woods and camped there... And it would be the same experience. There's no composting toilet, no drinking water, no view, nothing that makes this any different from any spot in any woods. The short logging road is only navigable by 4WD with good ground clearance. And I don't know how two cars, for the two campsites, would share that narrow road.

Sorry for the terrible review

Tent

Sorry to give the terrible review but the camp site really had no level ground to put up a tent. We arrived in the dark which we are use to doing when camping but this camp site was a bear to get to and then when we got back to the camp site there was no level/flat ground to put up a tent. We had to move brush and leaves to make a level site on the logging road to put up our tent which took hours to do. We did really appreciate all of the fire wood and nice fire ring to have a fire. That was great. Again the ground was not level and it was hard to put a chair by the fire pit but with some work on our part we did manage to sit and enjoy the fire pit. It was awesome to be away from other campers as it was very private. The cost was good but I don't think it would be too much to make the camp site more level/flat without ruts and small hills so a tent could be put up easily in the actual camp site area. Thank you for reading my review. Missie

Tent · With pets

On my travels north, I was looking for a quiet place to camp with my dog. The campsites are park and walk in, but they were close to where I parked. Clean and simple- was a perfect stay!
