The Saco is famous for canoe camping. Miles of white sandy beaches make for natural campsites, a privilege found on no other river. For information on day trips, CLICK HERE.

Overnight Trips Leaving From Saco Bound:
A 2-day trip from Saco Bound usually brings you to Lovewell Pond (22 miles). 3 to 4 days takes you to Hiram, Maine (43 miles).

Saco Bound Landing Base at Canal Bridge:
Our wilderness campsite facility, 11 miles downstream from our headquarters, has picnic tables, fire rings, toilets, and evening supervision for those preferring not to camp on the river. Setting camp at the Landing before departure from Saco Bound allows you to paddle without carrying camping gear. The take-out for this trip is usually Lovewell Pond. A great spot for youth groups landing! Camp Youth group prices are available.

Canoe rentals and shuttles are available from the Landing. This is a great spot to start a trip, making a less crowded stretch of the river available. Trips to Brownfield and Lovewell’s Pond are also available.
