Northern outdoors was a blast. The staff and guides were friendly and extremely helpful, and I was well fed the entire trip. A buffet breakfast with fresh fruit, hot pancakes and fresh bacon every morning in the woods of Maine? Yummy! And I'd recommend the Whitewater Wheat beer to anyone! The only bad thing about the beer was that I... more

Do NOT stay here. If you have already booked a reservation, cancel. Immediately. I have traveled all around the world and the Northern Outdoors Resort provided me with the second worst motel experience of my life: for some context, the worst was outside of Krakow, Poland when I was a poor college student backpacking around Eastern Europe and stayed in... more

I was sorry to read the report from Bigtravller33. It is highly unusual for us to have bands on a Sunday night - in fact this is one of just three nights during the season, and was timed to coincide with a Dead River Release date. The room in the lodge that the reviewer stayed in is definitely noisy when...

Well I really struggled with deciding to post on this. But it has been several days and no one has contacted me to follow up on the problem I reported--which to me is a serious thing to get on top of (if I ran a hotel or lodge). The lack of interest to know exactly where I slept etc to... more

I stayed the weekend at Northern Outdoors with my wife and four kids ages 11 to 15. We rented out one the large cabin further back in the property. The cabin was large and very clean. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We check in at 5pm on Friday, went kayaking in their pond and all ate in the... more

We went as a group of 6 (ages 24-35) and camped 2 nights and also did the Dead River white water rafting. I was amazed how friendly the staff was. Every day a staff member would come around to our camp site and ask if we were ok, let us know what events are going on in the lodge (live... more

I took my husband here for his 40th birthday - just the two of us. We LOVED the rafting, and plan on returning summer 2009 to raft again - BUT, next time we will stay in a real cabin, not a cabin tent! The cabin tents are great if you plan on staying up drinking all night, as the folks... more

In past years we have vacationed in Myrtle Beach S.C..We had heard wonderful news about Northern Outdoors. My husband and I and our son and his family decided to do a quiet weekend getaway. What we found was EXTRAORDINARY !!! The staff greeted us with smiles and open arms. The accomodations were rustic and relaxing. Above all IMMACULATE. The food... more

We stayed in the room over the restaurant over Easter weekend and were snowmobiling. My belongings (jacket/digital camera, snowmobile key) were stolen from the bar/restaurant downstairs. The Lodge has offered no help and brushed it off as though it wasn't important. It was at least a $700 loss for me. After the amount of money spent at this lodge for... more

The Forks, Maine isn't that easy to get to (at least from CT). It's about 8 hours of driving. And it's a world away from suburbia. There are moose, the Kennebec and Dead Rivers with white water rapids, the Appalachian Trail, and loons. And then there's Northern Outdoors resort. We visited because of the great activities they offer (we did... more
