  My family and I camped at Lobster Buoy when I was 13. So many years ago....and so many memories.We were visiting my son, Matt, last May and got lost. I noticed a sign by the road and rememberred the turn. It was as beautiful and for a short while I was young again. Says Andrea

I have been going to Lobster Buoy in South Thomaston, ME almost every summer for the past 20 years. It's my family's favorite campsite. Small, family friendly but not with the luxuries you find at other campgrounds - which is the whole point of camping! There's beaches to explore,
    boats to rent, the Lobster Festival in Rockland, several lighthouses nearby like Owlhead just up the road and Marshall Point in Port Clyde - which, by the way, is the lighthouse that Forrest Gump runs up on his cross-country run! So many fun things to do, and lots of peace and
quiet with a huge beach make for a great campsite for those who want to get away and spend time outdoors.
Says Rachel

You're sure to come across some friendly folks from South Thomaston here, and there's whitewater on Ducktrap River for all you thrill seekers. A visit to Lucia Beach in the vicinity of Lobster Buoy Campsite is always a pleasant idea, and there are some brilliant whitewater spots on St. George River. Lakes are such calm sites, why not explore Chickawaukie Pond close to Lobster Buoy Campsite, and get yourself into a kayak and hit
 
Oyster River.
