THOMAS POND Thomas Pond is a beautiful 533-acre freshwater pond with over 7.4 miles of shoreline. Thomas Pond’s maximum depth is 64 feet, and the mean depth is 22 feet. Our guests are welcome to kayak, canoe, swim, fish, and paddle board from the shores of The Queen’s Property, or one of 5 Right of Ways on Watkins Shores Road owned by our Association. Access to your private waterfront is a short stroll through our woods. As our guest staying at The Queen's Property, you will also have free access to the Watkins Shores Road Association's boat launch. The boat launch is just a two or three minute walk down the road from your site. Our new dock is available to dock your boat during the day.. However, there is a small fee to dock your boat overnight (see "Extras") at our site. Just make sure you check for Milfoil or any other invasive plants before launching. LOCAL ATTRACTIONS NEAR CAMP Within 5 minutes of camp, you will find all the essentials, including food items, ice, firewood, goodies, gas, and RV supplies. In fact, you can even order your groceries online for pickup, (free at Hannaford Brothers Grocery and Walmart) either on your way to your campsite or when you need to resupply your camp (we would be happy to give you the details). During your stay, you may also want to take a trip off-site to explore all that the Lakes Region offers. Explore the historic oceanfront City of Portland, or the local Towns of Windham, Naples, or Bridgton. Portland is a 35 minute drive from The Queen's Property. The coastline around Portland is rugged and attractive with world-famous lighthouses dotted along its shorelines. Numerous locally owned shops and nationally recognized restaurants can be found tucked into its many harbors and shorelines. Closer to camp, enjoy strolling through the Town of Naples. Naples sits smack-dab in the middle of the Sebago Lakes Region. Sebago Lake abuts its western border and Long Lake abuts its eastern border. A short 8-minute drive from your site, Naples spoils its visitors with boat rentals, waterfront shops, and awesome restaurants. Further north is the Town of Bridgton. Bridgton is a 20-minute drive from your campsite. It offers its visitors a quaint downtown filled with local retailers, pubs, and restaurants. Enjoy the beaches of Bridgton’s Crystal Lake which sits on the edge of its downtown borders. The towns of Raymond and Windham also offer our visitors numerous restaurants, grocery stores, hardware stores, and gas stations. Once again, all within a short drive from your campsite (3-4 minutes). NEARBY STATE PARKS AND OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES If your idea of exploring is centered around outdoor activities, then Sebago Lake State Park is a 1,342-acre park that abuts the shores of Sebago Lake. It's one of Maine’s most popular parks. Located in the towns of Casco and Naples, the park is open year-round and is less than a 10 minute drive from your campsite. Within the park, you will enjoy protected forests, bike paths, and Sebago Lake beaches. Sebago Lake is a deep glacial lake, and by itself is 44 square miles of clear waters that abut Sebago Lake State Park. The park and the lake host some of Maine's’ best sandy beaches, water sports, fishing, boating, boat rentals, camping, picnic areas, boat launches, extensive woodlands, a wide array of critters, hiking trails, and walking trails. Sebago Park hosts various play areas for children with slides and swings. The summer sun is warm and the autumn colors are always abundant and beautiful. The entrance and parking lot are wheelchair accessible.

There are over 25 hiking trails within 10 miles of The Queen's Property and over 115 trails within 20 miles. Oh, and if you love winter sports you will love the Lakes Region. Numerous ski resorts, along with hundreds of miles of cross-country ski and snowmobile trails can be found throughout the area.The Queen's Property (TheQueensProperty.com) sits in a 15-acre forest with over 600 feet of private shoreline on Thomas Pond. The site includes a sandy bottom swimming and boating cove with a 20' dock on Thomas Pond. We are not part of an institutional campground or RV Park. The Queen's Property is privately owned by a local resident. As such, it is located in a secluded neighborhood of family homes on the shores of Thomas Pond. You will have exclusive use of the entire 15-acre site to yourself. Enjoy your private sandy bottomed cove nestled in the waters of Thomas Pond. Bring your swimwear, beach towels and watercraft to swim and water sport off your own new private 20' dock. At your campsite you will have your choice of; 50-amp, 30-amp and two 20-amp hookups. Enjoy fresh and cold potable water from our new 520 foot artesian well, and rinse off in your outdoor shower. Your stay also includes quick and easy access to our new on-site black water hookup. All of these features are within just a few feet from your RV. The 25’x45’ and 20'X20' crushed gravel parking pads are flat and secluded. Both pads are setback over 250' from the entrance on Watkins Shores Road. The Queen's Property is carefully laid out to give you and your family privacy from every direction. Your entire campsite is less than 130 feet from your private shoreline on Thomas Pond. Your only neighbors will be our resident loons, beavers, herons, eagles, hawks, and deer. Most nights, the only noise you will hear other than the popping sparks from your 4'x4' on-site fire pit, will be the beautiful and haunting sounds of the loons and frogs who make Thomas Pond their home. Just bring your locally sourced firewood (or purchase ours) and enjoy the star-studded evenings with family or friends.

Host of the year
To stay at the Queen's Property ended up being so much more than a private full hookups campsite on Thomas Pond. Our host Daniel was the star. He was so welcoming, friendly and generous to us from the get go. His care for the land and openness about the area and the improvements made really could be felt. And then there were the loons eagles ducks turtles frogs and fish, the pond that supports all this wildlife, so welcoming too. So cool on the hot days here and kayaking in the quiet morning time with the pond fog not quite lifted was magical and will not be forgotten. We hiked nearby and had such a lovely and peaceful retreat at the end of each outing. The site was super clean we had zero issues and will be back again next year for sure.

Splendid, peaceful perfection
My husband, our four-legged children and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Queen’s Property. The site is tucked away in a secluded and gorgeous nook of the woods not far from Thomas Pond. It is completely private, away from everything except nature’s innate beauty. The amenities are top-notch, the fire pit is nicely positioned and the surroundings are beyond comparison. We were there nine nights and it just wasn’t long enough. Our first night we were so excited to be greeted by a pair of owls hooting. Every evening thereafter, the loons were singing their hauntingly beautiful wail. Our dogs, too, were overjoyed with the location. There were plenty of trails to hike and at the dock the water was shallow enough, they could jump in without worry. There were an abundance of new scents and squirrels to distract them (we did not let them chase or harm any of the wildlife). With all the perfection the site itself had to offer, our stay was made even more wonderful by the host. Dan was amazing. He met us about a mile from the campsite and gave us a quick tour. The wood we requested was next to the fire pit and the kayaks were at the dock ready for us to explore the pristine and expansive pond. He checked on us a couple times but was not intrusive. We cannot give The Queen’s Property a higher rating. It is the absolute best and we hope to visit year after year.

Perfect private, spacious site
Dan’s spot was perfect! Private, spacious, well-equipped. The site is surrounded by trees with a glimpse of the water through the forest. Our dogs loved having free run of the site and surrounding woods. The pond was beautiful, and we loved hanging out on the dock. The waterfront area is nice and clean with a sandy bottom, but note there’s no beach— woods goes right up to the water. It’s shallow, clear, and has a sandy bottom though for wading. It was loved by both humans and dogs. Our favorite hipcamp yet! We will be back.

The site was incredibly private and well maintained. Lovely views and access to the water. Daniel, the host, was super communicative and so nice and met us to show us around. We had a great stay and would highly recommend this wonderful spot.

The privacy was amazing. Down a driveway, walk to the swim area is private. The woods are easily traveled. The swimming is sandy bottom for a decent ways, and there is enough shallow water for kids or lounging. The lot itself is great, and you can tell a lot of care has been taken to bring out the best. Dan was a wonderful host, and we will be back!
