Toad Hall is a heated, one room, 8x8 cabin in Harrison, Maine, with access to the Bear River for wading and swimming (depending on the river height.) There is a firepit at the cabin, along with one down by the river. Firewood is provided. The lower area by the river is a beautiful place to hang out, pitch hammocks etc... The cabin is near the road, which is great for loading in and loading out, but you will hear/see cars drive by. (Read our reviews, we stand by them!)
There is no running water or bathroom on the property so we ask you bring a camping potty and do not bury human waste. The Bear River, which is a beautiful spot to swim and wade in, runs right through the property- but it's also drinking water and a protected watershed. Again, please make sure you have a camping potty plan.
Cabin Features: There are 2 cots inside, but also feel free to bring your own pads/bedding... Heat is provided via a propane Buddy Heater as needed (smoke/carbon dioxide detector is in the cabin.) There are solar lights inside, along with a USB plug to charge small devices. It is a clean, warm, dry room, with beautiful light and good ventilation with the windows cracked.
Nearby places you will like: We are within walking distance to downtown restaurants and public swimming area on Long Lake. There's also porto potties next to the walkable country store, which has everything you forgot to bring. Also a great ice cream shack, and an above-average watering hole, The Olde Mill Tavern.
This is a self check-in/out, so expect an easy arrival process (and we'll ask you to please leave the property prepared for the next guest to arrive.)

As a new addition to the New Hampshire State Park system, count your miles on whatever mode of transport you’re feelin’ that day.

But if your loved one is an ATV nut, you can’t miss the Jericho ATV Festival in late summer. Muddy, family fun for all is hard to beat.

Talk about a diamond in the rough. New Hampshire’s aptly named Little Diamond Pond, tucked away in the remote north country, boasts some of the best trout fishing in the state. While this is the heart and soul of Coleman State Park—drawing fishermen young and old from across the region—many more flock here for excellent hunting and ATVing. And with a handful of new ATV-accessible campsites, why wouldn’t they? From here, riders have access to more than 1,000 miles of off-road-vehicle trails in Coos County, plus additional trails reserved for non-motorized pursuits such as hiking, biking, and cross-country skiing. Even if you weren’t aware that Coleman State Park lies just 15 miles from the Canadian border, you’d be silly to think you were anywhere else.

Talk about a diamond in the rough. New Hampshire’s aptly named Little Diamond Pond, tucked away in the remote north country, boasts some of the best trout fishing in the state. While this is the heart and soul of Coleman State Park—drawing fishermen young and old from across the region—many more flock here for excellent hunting and ATVing. And with a handful of new ATV-accessible campsites, why wouldn’t they? From here, riders have access to more than 1,000 miles of off-road-vehicle trails in Coos County, plus additional trails reserved for non-motorized pursuits such as hiking, biking, and cross-country skiing. Even if you weren’t aware that Coleman State Park lies just 15 miles from the Canadian border, you’d be silly to think you were anywhere else.

Toad Hall was great! Amazing place to stay in the fall/winter. Cozy for 2 people with provided cots & camping chairs! The heater and shelter from the rain was great. Hearing the creek water at night was relaxing. Mike was so nice and communicative! Would definitely stay here again!

Had a fantastic time! Kevin was very responsive to questions ahead of time, well maintained site and easy directions for locating it. Only flaw was the amount of noise coming from the motor speedway nearby. The location and views outweighed this minor annoyance since we just opted to put on a playlist to drown it out. The evenings around the campfire were filled with nature sounds and the babbling water. We’d stay here again! Kevin as a great host!

Wow, what a magical little Maine site! It rained while I was here, but that only made the fall colors pop even more. It is such a treat having lake access just steps away. I thoroughly enjoyed my night by the fire and exploring the Hallmark worthy towns on the way from Portland. Don't miss this spot or the gorgeous flower arrangements at the flower stand!

Amazing campsite! Wish I could’ve stayed longer. Beautiful meadow on one site and cool creek on the other. Great tent platform and plenty of room for our 23’ trailer. Gorgeous sunsets on the field! Kevin was responsive and helpful. I’d love to come back next time I’m in the area.

We had the best camping weekend at Horseshoe Bend! We walked the river, watched a bald eagle, did some local hikes, and got ice cream at the goat barn just down the road. Kids, adults, and dogs were very happy! The only knock on this site is that there is a racetrack of some kind across the road, so on the weekend it was quite loud for most of the day. Other than that, the site was perfect and Kevin was a great host!

Peace on Earth! What a relaxing, peaceful, quiet, regenertive spot. And Dan was the best host one could hope for. Our two furry family members had a great time too. The pond is clean, clear and inviting, even in the cool days of September. We highly recommend this Hipcamp! One of the best we've ever had the good fortune to visit.

This was my second time at Horseshoe Bend with my dogs and first time at Site 1. It was a very short walk to the tent platform right on the river. There was a campfire ring by the tent and picnic table and another right on the riverbank. Site 1 is very private and very serene, especially when falling asleep to the sound of the river. We even had a very large Blue Heron right across the river join us for an entire morning too! As always, Kevin is super responsive and both times I’ve been here, the sites are very clean and well maintained.
