Pitch your tent beneath ancient pines, park by the fire, and let the Maine woods become your backyard.
Shade & Privacy
Every site nestled among mature trees
Thornton Family Campground sits on a quiet stretch of McGinn Road in Orrington, Maine — far enough from the noise, close enough to everything that matters. We opened our gates for one reason: to give people a real outdoor experience without sacrificing comfort.
Whether you arrive with a backpack and a tent, a full-size RV, or a cozy cabin-ready couple, there's a corner of these woods waiting for you. Firewood's on hand. The trees are thick. And the silence? That's the best part.
