Adventurous Maine Vacations Ideal for Groups

Maine, typically known for its natural beauty and its incomparable serenity, is also home to one of the most adventure-filled, romantic, and fun resorts in the northeast United States. This makes it an ideal destination for thrill-seeking friends looking for excitement and wonder. Whether you’re just interested in a weekend away with the girls, planning a unique family reunion, or a couple of days away with a close friend, Northern Outdoors will shatter your preconceptions, and show you that Maine is at the forefront of incredible getaways. 

Upon arrival, it’s easy to be overwhelmed by the plethora of activities available to you. Not to worry; the passionately hospitable staff will check you in and make recommendations as to where best to start. The onsite restaurant offers fresh, local foods in hearty breakfast, lunch, and dinner dishes. The menu is diverse, but make sure you check out the signature made to order burgers, delicious wings, and scrumptious salads. Try a hand crafted beer from the Kennebec River Brewery which is located at Northern Outdoors. You can sample their assortment of amazing craft beers, all of which contain two-row malted barleys, premium imported and domestic hops, superior yeasts, and pure Kennebec Valley water. 

For groups that are looking for something more active there’s plenty to choose from, but the undeniable, inarguable of adventurous activities is Northern Outdoors’ famous river rafting. Few things compare to being with your best friends as you hurtle down raging rapids, as excitement, terror, and laughter grip you all at once. There are three incredible rivers to choose from, each offering its own difficulty and recommended level of expertise, but all skill levels are welcome. The expert Maine Registered Guides will make sure that you’re safe during your exciting adventure as well. 

“Once a year my girlfriends and I get together to go rafting,” said a previous guest, Monique R. “When we go with Northern Outdoors we are never disappointed. The afternoon slideshow and video after lunch is almost as much fun as the rafting itself! We love staying overnight in the cabin tents and hanging out at the lodge. The whole experience is fantastic from start to finish.”

Of course, there is a “resort” part of this resort, and Northern Outdoors doesn’t disappoint in that department either. You and your friends will fall in love with the wide range of accommodations, from cozy single rooms to deluxe cabins perfect for extended families and large groups. Each is stocked with the the modern amenities and comforts you’d expect from a luxury retreat. And we haven’t even touched on the ATV trails, swimming pool, fishing…the list goes on and on. Just know this: a stay at Northern Outdoors is one you’ll never forget!
