Just in case people are interested, we just came back from a fabulous
vacation in Oakland, Maine.  It is in the Belgrade Lakes region.  They have
cabins on a beautiful lake.  Dining is on the American Plan with a full
breakfast, lunch and dinner.  The website is www.aldencamps.com.  This is
our eigth summer going, but our first going with celiac.  

I emailed them before we went and they were very prepared for us.  They
totally understood the concepts of gluten free and cross contamination.  The
chef is a chef during the year at a boarding school where some of the
students have celiac.  The pastry chef made sure we had gluten free muffins
in the morning, gluten free cookies for lunch and gluten free bread and
desserts for dinner.  Not to mention all of the ice cream and chocolate
mousse that is naturally GF.  All the wait staff were educated on celiac so
it didn't matter who we got to serve us.  I would receive a typed dinner
menu everynight (the entrees were written on the chalkboard for everyone
else) with inappropriate selections crossed off.  For breakfast, we either
had GF pancakes (we brought the mix), eggs and bacon or GF cereal that I
brought.  For lunch there could be grilled cheese or other sandwiches on GF
bread or different types of salads.   

I was needlessly apprehensive.  They did a great job.
