Customer Reviews
We have been coming here for about 17 years, although we usually don’t do repeat vacations!|This is a wonderful place to vacation if you like the outdoors and want to get away from it all! No cell service, no tv, but a daily weather report is available.|Many come here to fish in the beautiful and serene Munsungan Lake: mostly trout and salmon. You get get a guide for a day, that almost guarantees a catch. The staff will fry or smoke your catch, too.|This is a wonderful place for a family vacation; kids always seem to have a great time splashing and exploring.|Three meals a day are served, and there is always plenty of wood for the communal campfire. It’s fun to talk to the other guests around the campfire, with s’mores !|On caution: bring insect repellent!
Beautiful place that we have enjoyed for many years. Unfortunately, the place has lost its charm for us. The fishing is o.k. it was better the first three trips we made. The staff turnover has made it challenging for Igor and Karen, but with that the service has diminished. Our last trip in, we were unable to fly due to heavy rain so we got a motel that night in Millinockett and then drove in the next day. We no sooner got there and we were told our Guide was ready. We hadn't even unpacked. We definitely felt rushed. Balancing services with respect of people's trips into the camp should have been more thoughtful. The services in general have declined over the recent years as well. They are pricey, our last trip we were expected to pay for the guides lodging, on top of the daily rate, which
Visited Bradford Camp this past summer. Camp was outstanding! Great cabins, food, lake and a little fishing. They even have an ice house that they take frozen blocks of lake ice out and store for the summer. Really nothing bad to say except for inn keepers wife. Her name is Karen and she acts like a Karen. Friendly on the surface only. She gave the attitude that the guest were an annoyance in her day. Even when we asked for something it seemed like it was a burden. Better to ask one of the other staff. Husband and the rest of the staff were 5 stars. Really enjoyed our time there. Camp is worth visiting.
Right on the shores of Munsungan Lake, very nice setting. The drive up is fantastic. The lake is nice, however, we found that all the good fishing is done at the camp end of the lake (inlet), thus we did not find any "hot" fishing spots at other locations on the lake. If you're into fishing - its good, lots of salmon and trout and if you're into nature, its great as well. There is also an old growth forests in the area. Igor does a good job keeping the camps original and the grounds pristine. Costs were higher compared to similar camps in Maine.
Best vacation ever. Igor and Karen |Are the best!!!! You probably couldn’t find a more beautiful place than this. It is remote and relaxing but couldn’t be more pampered. All the meals were delicious and homemade. Went with my husband son and grandson who is 12 and he didn’t want to come home.
