Dan's campsite offers a serene and well-maintained environment with easy access to beautiful walking trails and Lake Auburn, making it a favorite among campers. The site is praised for its privacy, cleanliness, and Dan's attentive hosting. However, some guests have noted occasional noise from neighboring sites and a nearby grow center, which can disrupt the tranquility. Overall, the lush surroundings and thoughtful amenities provide a restful retreat for nature enthusiasts.

Sophie’s site 30/20 amp power/water
The camp was very clean and stocked with fire wood. We thought they had a leash law. We found out maybe they do???? Sophies spot is not private at all. The tent site next to us had noisy kids and adults. We put up with screaming kids for two days.Had it not been a holiday weekend we would have moved to a KOA. They have rules to prevent others from poor behavior. Leashes are important to protect everyone.

The site is pristine. It is great for car camping, which I did, and I'm sure would be great for tent camping. There are two gravel-covered levels (small gravel) separated by an ~2 foot slope with medium-sized rocks (a 4WD could traverse the slope). Tent stakes for my privacy shelter were easy to tap in, held well during medium winds, and were also easily removed manually (there is dirt under the gravel, which is good for holding stakes). The site is surrounded on three sides by woods and the fourth by an old road, but it is literally at the end of the road (so you don't have to worry about vehicular traffic). It is quite lush in the Spring with dense foliage, very quiet and you can see just one other campsite through the dense trees, but just barely (it is hundreds of feet away). The site is very private and I slept like a baby. Dan was responsive in messaging and rode by on his mountain bike late in the morning (clearly going somewhere) and slowed down to say hello and confirm everything was good: "Perfect", I responded, which it was. I'll be back!

Awesome campground with gorgeous trails, convenient hook ups and an “off the beaten path” ambiance. The road is narrow and the gravel is soft in spaces, so if you’re a heavy 2 wheel drive vehicle be spatially aware! There are no toilets as advertised (perhaps it is seasonal?) but you can walk up the trail a ways to the community center and use their bathrooms if needed. The lake is beautiful! I saw deer, beavers and lots of incredible birds just minutes away from the site.

Auburn Lake access and trails

GRASS site 15amp/ water&grey water
I stayed at Sophia's Camp which was private, with water and electricity, and right next to trails around Lake Auburn and the surrounding fields. Water and electricity was readily available, my dogs and I enjoyed exploring the trails, Auburn Lake is beautiful, and the host, Dan, was helpful and accessible. I would definitely recommend staying at this campground and getting to know this wonderful area of Maine.

Sophie’s site 30/20 amp power/water
It is a GREAT location. I reserved Sophie’s site because it looked like the best true “ camping “ site for our needs. Apparently “upgraded “ to another site and was approached at 8 pm thinking they were in the wrong but it was me.. never realized we were “upgraded “. The incoming party was great about taking the “upgraded “ site. I would not have chosen the upgrade and wish there was a conversation regarding the change. There is a grow center abutting the property that has loud equipment that cycles off and on 24/7.. it tends to be annoying. The grounds are beautiful, lots of trails and exploring available. There is an extra fee for using electricity beyond what the owner feels is reasonable for the site fee, not disclosed when booking. Beautiful picnic table and fire pit. Can’t go wrong with Sophie’s site.💕

I had a great time staying here. The site is well put together, had plenty of space, and the surroundings are beautiful. I hiked some of the trails down by the lake and really enjoyed it. Would stay again if I'm back in the area!

Sophie’s site 30/20 amp power/water
We needed to have a stop between Acadia and NH for a day and Dan’s place was perfect for us. Very quiet and woodsy, we had a peaceful resting day. Dan was nice enough to place us at a full hookup site (1b) so we had more space. The walk down to the lake was also very nice (15 min walk down).

Great Spot! Easy to park. Good Clearing. Rode my bike down the trail to the lake. There was a small sandy beach.

If you like privacy this is the place, on a beautiful well maintained property, basically a short walk from a huge lake. Dan the host went above and beyond to make us comfortable and acquainted with the area. We will definitely be coming back!!

Awesome site, host is great. Campsite very clean well maintained. Area hiking is nice and you can start right from camp. Stores and reasturants are near by but far enough not to hinder the camping experience. I would stay here again when in area. Thank you for a peaceful weekend.

We loved camping at Sophie’s site. It’s a beautiful, peaceful spot. Wonderful proximity to walking trails, great for our dogs! Dan is friendly and super communicative with quick response time when we asked him questions. His entire property is well maintained, easy to access and very comfortable. This was our first hipcamp experience and we could not have been more pleased. Thanks, Dan!

Dan is a wonderful host and his sites have everything you could need and more. We feel at home here more than we ever have at any RV campground or site. Although the site is in his driveway, Dan and his family make our privacy a priority. I highly recommend taking on the invitation to his outdoor “lounge” for good company over a beverage. We couldn’t be happier, thanks for having us, Dan!

Site 1a & 1b 50/30/20 w/s PVT
When we first saw Dan's sites on Hipcamp, they looked too good to be true -- but holy moly they were even MORE AMAZING than the beautiful photos and shining reviews expressed! WE LOVED LOVED LOVED everything about our stay here at Dan's oasis on Lake Auburn! The sites are beautifully designed--incredibly private, easy to get in and out of and access hookups. Everything worked perfectly. And the walking trails right outside your door are fantastic -- our doggo will never forgive us for leaving.
Dan is the perfect host -- tremendously helpful, generous, kind, and welcoming, while simultaneously extremely respectful of our space. We enjoyed our conversations with him tremendously. He's a true gem.
The towns of Auburn and Lewiston are also fantastic -- full of beautiful parks and hikes, along with super convenient shopping.
We just love this stay so much -- can't recommend it enough <3

Dan is the best. Hands-down, the most helpful and communicative host. The sites are exactly how they are described. And it is overall very welcoming. I thoroughly enjoy our time here. We brought in an RV camper with a child and a dog and it was more than accommodating. If bringing a pet, please make sure that you’re safe and bring a lead.

This place exceeded my expectations! After a rough start because I arrived after dark in a torrential downpour and my camper got stuck, Dan the host went above and beyond to help me out. Not only did he take the time to help me get unstuck, he made sure I felt comfortable and happy with the accommodations. The site was perfect. Roomy with a level spot for my trailer and a separate spot for my car. There was also tons of room for my dogs to run around off leash. The location is close to Auburn so we took a walk along the river one of the days we were there. I would highly recommend staying here.

Sophie’s site 30/20 amp power/water
Dan's space was wonderfully private but yet accessible to other campers, the cabana space and pond was fun to check out during our stay. The site was very clean and well-maintained, we had no issues setting up a tent and using the water and electric hook ups. Dan was accessible via communication and attentive to our site, providing more firewood and working on improvements to the road in front of the site (a huge rainstorm and rains from the summer had started eroding the ditches). We recommend this great camping spot!

Lovely place to stay. Quiet and handy to the Auburn/Lewiston area. The facilities are well taken care of and we had two very quiet, peaceful nights. Dan was a great host.

I really liked the flat ground at the grassy camp (camp#2) and the amenities (water and electric). There were a lot of available walking trials which was nice and kept our toddler busy. I was initially taken aback by being able to see the renters house across what looked to be a lawn and was unexpected from the photos provided online and took a bit of the potential privacy away from the site. That said, the owner was extremely generous and very charming. Would definitely recommend saying hello and sharing a beer with him at his personal lounge nearby and visible to the grassy camp.
