We have a campsite near Lake George in Skowhegan and we added a few sites to share with friends and family. This is a cozy cabin ideal for a family who want to get away and enjoy the outdoors. There’s a small fridge to keep your drinks cold and an air conditioner to keep you comfortable on warm days. There’s a fire pit with a grill for cooking. Onsite there is a communal bath house and a covered pavilion. This campsite is just a short trail walk from the Lake George regional Park. Which has a couple of beach areas as well as a boat launch for water sports. There’s a bathhouse to shower and clean up. We are working on getting the septic system installed and have a portable toilet to use until it’s completed. From the campsite you can take a 10 minute walk down to the lake or you can spend the day hiking. You can drive down to the boat landing and put your kayak in the water or continue up the road to enjoy a nice sandy beach.

About the host
Hosted by Rick pease
I built Stray Dog Properties out of a love for the outdoors and my dog, Stormy. We spend as much time outside as we can, and this place reflects that — simple, comfortable, and meant to be enjoyed.
I’m usually nearby if you need anything, but I try to give guests their space to relax and enjoy their stay. Whether you’re here for the lake, the trails, or just some quiet time, I hope you feel at home here.
Why they chose this property
I chose this area because of how close it is to Lake George and everything that comes with it — the beach, the boat launch, and the trails. It’s the kind of place where you can stay busy all day or do nothing at all.
It’s quiet, natural, and just far enough away to feel like you’ve unplugged, but still easy to get to.
What makes this property unique
What makes this place unique is that it’s not just one stay — it’s a small collection of different spaces, all designed to be enjoyed together. From a glamping tent to a cabin, A-frame, and tent sites, it gives people options while still feeling like one shared experience.
With the pavilion, games, bathhouse, and easy access to Lake George, it becomes more than a place to sleep — it’s a place to gather, relax, and spend time outside.
It’s simple, comfortable, and built for people who want to unplug without being uncomfortable.
