Recommend Hemlock Grove Campground in Arundel, Me. It is a very short hop to Kenebunkport & Kennebunk. Well run cg with a top notch camp store and friendly mgmt. Very convenient to shopping or highways north or south. Maybe an hour to Bar Harbor. And of course there is the fantastic Kennebunkport village center with lots of shops and great food. Don't miss Walker's Point and St. Ann's Epscopal Church. A historic, working church with a magnificent outdoor sanctuary right on the ocean. Enjoy!

We have visited family at Baileys on a day-visit. It was early in the season, so don't know what it would be like at the height of summer. The sites were a bit close, but everything was very clean. They have a shuttle available. The bro-in law has also stayed at Hidden Pines, and said it was alright but preferred Baileys.

We've stayed at 2 of the 3 parks in the Old Orchard area. The first one was only a couple of blocks from the beach and pier, more in the village than not. Unfortunately I don't remember the name of the park (we weren't unpressed)
The other one was Hidinpines was just on the out skirts of town. The town shuttle stopped at the gate. It was a nice park. The third was farther out of town, but don't remember the name.
Very nice town, we enjoyed the area. water was surprising warm for what you would expect

I don't know much about Portland campgrounds, but I do know Bar Harbor Campground near Acadia National Park LINK

If you are this far north it is a very nice place to stay. Get yourself a Maine lobster after spending the day on the ocean at Sand Beach LINK

Enjoy Maine.
