Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Already Seasonal?

What do I need to do if I am completing site modifications (e.g., deck, shed, pavers, etc.)?

Great question! We ask our seasonal campers to complete a Site Modification and Construction Approval Form prior to any work. This would include building and/or adding a deck, shed, three-season room, pavers, a platform, amongst other modifications. Please see Section 10. Construction within our Seasonal Handbook for more information.

This form will be sent to our office team, and our management members will look it over for approval. We will reach out with any questions and with an answer on your request as soon as possible.

All construction must be completed in the off season, not including Memorial Day weekend. Please see these posted dates per each season.

I’m looking to sell my unit on site – what’s next?

We understand plans can change, that’s why we’re here for you!

First, we ask that you fill out a For Sale on Site Approval Form, so our team knows to access your site. Please see Section 12. Selling Your Trailer within our Seasonal Handbook for more information.

Once our team receives a completed For Sale on Site Approval Form, we will access your unit and site as soon as possible. This will include checking the year of your unit, the current status of your seasonal reservation, and site.

After review, our team will reach out with any further questions and an approval or denial. We will help walk you through the steps if approved to finalize selling on site.

Click this link to fill out the For Sale on Site Approval Form. We thank you for staying with Powder Horn!

Can I request site maintenance?

Absolutely! We allow certain requests to be made when it comes to site maintenance.

Allowed requests are as follows: property damage, safety issues, and PHFCR infrastructure that has fallen into disrepair. We no longer take requests for loam, seed, or other general site maintenance. Work orders are only accepted prior to June 1st or after Labor Day of each season.

Please see Section 8.11 Work Orders within our Seasonal Handbook for more information.

Once our team has reviewed your Work Order Request, we will reach out with any questions and an approval or denial with reasoning.

Click this link to fill out the Work Order Request Form.

Can I get a new unit on my current seasonal site?

We love to see our current seasonal campers upgrade to a new unit! Before anything is official, we ask that you complete a New Unit Request Form. This is to help our team ensure your new unit will be able to fit comfortably on your current site.

After our team receives the request form, we will review the new unit information and your current site. If you aren’t sure what unit you will be purchasing, simply put “NA” in the spots you aren’t sure of and our team will still go out and measure your site to see the maximum unit length you would be able to fit.

Once our team has reviewed your New Unit Request Form, we will reach out with any questions and an approval or denial with reasoning.

Click this link to fill out the New Unit Request Form.

How do we make a change to our seasonal reservation?

Things change, so we’ve made it easy for you to let us know! We have created a Seasonal Reservation Adjustment Form to inform us of any changes you have to your seasonal site agreement.

These changes would be the following: Change of address; contact information (email and/or phone number); vehicle; emergency contact; adding or removing an additional seasonal occupant (adult or child); and adding or removing a pet. We do not allow removal of a current primary occupant via this form.

You can check all that applies when submitting the form.

Click this link to fill out the Seasonal Reservation Adjustment Form.

Our plans for next season have changed, what’s next?

We were happy to have you while we did! We understand plans change, so let’s work through this together.

If you’re sure you won’t be returning for next season, please fill out the Non-Returning Form. This lets our team know to expect the site to be cleared come closing day.

Please note that all property must be removed from site on or before closing day of the season. Please see Section 4. Late Fees within our Seasonal Handbook for more information.

Looking to Become Seasonal?

How do I become a seasonal?

If you’re looking for your next home away from home, you’ve found it! Powder Horn has been a home to many families for over 50 years. Here’s some more information on how you can join the Powder Horn Family!

The first step is to fill out our Seasonal Application, which is good for one season at a time. Our team will process the application as soon as possible once received. A key to a fast-processing time is making sure your references are expecting a call from our office.

Our team will reach out once your application has processed. After approval, the next step is seeing whether or not you’re looking to purchase a unit on site or wait for an open site to become available. See the below “What is the difference between For-Sale-on-Site and Sites Available?” for more information.

What are the benefits of becoming seasonal?

Becoming a seasonal camper at Powder Horn is more than just camping… it’s a second home. Here at Powder Horn, our team strives to create a friendly, safe, and clean environment for all guests.

Outside the park, we have the famous 7-mile long Old Orchard Beach just under a mile away! You can find many unique shops and restaurants to enjoy in your down time. Plus, about a 20-minute drive will get you to Portland, Maine – one of the finest places for lobster and seafood.

Inside the park, we have many amenities to enjoy! These include but are not limited to an 18-hole minigolf course, 4 swimming pools, 2 hot-tubs, and daily activities. Take advantage of our campground store which hosts great food, Powder Horn gear, and any last-minute items.

Have a family member or friend who would like to join you one day? Good news – anyone can visit you at half price our visitor fees any day or time of the week! Enjoy all the same amenities with who is close to you.

These are just a few of the benefits of becoming seasonal here at Powder Horn – family owned and operated since 1970!

What is included in a seasonal site?

Each seasonal site comes with a picnic table and a fire ring. The size of the site will be dependent on where the site is located and the actual site itself.

The seasonal rate includes two adults, two vehicles, and access to either 50 or 30AMP full hookup. ‘Full hookup’ is defined as sewer, water, and electric. Electricity is an additional cost billed at the end of each season – cost will be based upon usage within the season.

You can add additional adults or children to your reservation for an additional rate for the season.

For more information, please reference our Seasonal Information and Rates Handbook.

What is the difference between For-Sale-on-Site and Sites Available?

Great question!

For-Sale-on-Site is a term we use when current seasonal campers are selling their personal unit on site. The unit is a private sale between the current and future seasonal campers. The site itself would be processed through the Powder Horn Office after approval to become a seasonal.

Sites Available is a term we use when we have a current site ready for a future seasonal camper to bring their unit onto! This means there is nothing on the site except for a picnic table and fire pit.

For more information, give our office a call at (207) 934-4733 to discuss your options!

How do I purchase a unit on site?

Looking to purchase a unit on site? We’re here to help!

The first step in purchasing a unit on site is to become an approved seasonal camper. Please see the above “How do I become a seasonal?” for more information.

Once you have been approved, the next step is to start talking with the seasonal who’s unit you would like to purchase. The purchasing process is a private transaction between the current and future seasonal guests.

Next step is to click this link to fill out a Seasonal Site Agreement for the current season.

After we have received the new Seasonal Site Agreement from the future seasonal guests and the Seller’s Fee from the current seasonal, the final reservation transfer will go through.

We ask all new seasonal campers to review our Seasonal Information and Rates Handbook prior to becoming seasonal as to be familiar with all our terms and conditions.

We hope to welcome you to the Powder Horn family soon!

When does seasonal availability change?

Seasonal availability is based on multiple factors. Most commonly, we will have sites open for new seasonal campers beginning after October 1st of each season.

Each site will be available based upon when our office is notified and how long it takes our team to clean the site for a new unit. Once the site is available, our team will post it under the “Sites Available” portion of our seasonal page. Each site is a first-come, first-serve basis.

Feel free to give our office a call at (207) 934-4733 for more information!
