My personal pick - Glen Ellis campground, where the Ellis and Saco rivers meet. More of a resort with ballfields, pool, tennis courts, etc, but still pretty spread out and comfortable. They even have remote tenting where you leave your car behind. http://www.glenelliscampground.com/

Enjoy.

We have stayed at Glen Ellis twice. Once 9 years ago, and once last month. They have tons of stuff to do, and the staff there is very nice. We enjoyed both of our stays very much, and I would highly recommend it.

Another "resort" type campground would be Moose Hillock campground, over in Warren. They have a great swimming pool, with a good sized waterslide for the kids. Their campsites are HUGE, and most of them have what I like to call "built-in" firepits. They are built with the existing boulders/rocks. We love that place as well, but it is definately geared more towards families with kids.
