We spent a perfect weekend at Lakewwod Camps. Maureen and Whit are terrific hosts, the simple wood cabins haven't changed in 50 years but are perfectly comfortable. We fell asleep and wine up to the cry of loons. I swam four times a day; we kayaked, hiked, read books on our cabin porch... Perfect peace.

My family has been going to Middle Dam for over fifty years. Still the best place to fish, relax, play cribbage, take photos, or fall asleep for an hour or two. Food is great too!

I've stayed at Lakewood Camps twice (the date range field only allowed certain dates to be chosen - see Lakewood Camps website for dates of operation) & I'll be back next summer! The cabins are rustic yet comfortable with full bathrooms & a woodstove and three meals a day sounds light compared to the reality! They feed you VERY well... More

I stayed recently at Lakewood Camps and was overjoyed to see it was much the same as the last time I visited - around 1967. Beautiful wilderness, great folks, cozy rustic accomodations and terrific food. I don't fish but it looks to be an excellent place for that, and communing with other fisherpeople (there were plenty of women-fly fishers there).... More

Lakeside accommodations and delicious home cooked meals combine at Lakewood Camps for a relaxing retreat in the wilderness of Maine. I stayed in a rustic cabin right on Lower Richardson Lake and was serenaded by loons at night. I spent my days hiking around and fly-fishing in the amazing Rapid River. As a novice fly fisherman, I gained helpful advice... More

This was our second time staying at Lakewood Camp for our annual fishing excursion. Maureen & Whit run a great operation. Food is inn quality and the fishing is as good as it gets in for brookies up to 5lbs and wild salmon up to 22". For the non fisher, the loons will lull you to sleep in the evening... More
