Camping On The Battenkill is a quiet nature orientated campground on 35acres of land that offers large spacious private sites in 30 Acres of forest, 2 rivers and a large open field area for group bookings. The beauty of The Battenkill and Roaring Branch rivers can be experienced throughout the varied terrain of the campground. We have RV Sites and Raw Camping sites that are situated on the Battenkill River the other sites are located in the forest or open field. Life does not get better than this! A natural swimming hole with a sandy beach lies in the midst of the campground with all campers having access to it for long cool summer’s day experiences. Campers also enjoy tubing and canoeing on the river as well as basking in the sun, or taking their pets for long cool walks through the forest. The Battenkill is noted as an exceptional trout stream for fishing and we even offer guided fishing tours right from the campground. On rainy days campers can enjoy the games room or take a covered bridge tour nearby the campground. We offer a mobile honey wagon service for campers who require longer stays.

First time camping in Vermont and this place exceeded our expectations. We heard a nice stream all night long that surrounds the campground with many people fly fishing. The owners were so friendly and accommodating. The sites were pretty spread out, everyone was quiet but it is early in the season. We have been to a lot of campgrounds, and this bathroom was so clean and smelled wonderful! We look forward to coming back and staying here again!
First, I have to say the campground is great and I am sad to have to give it a bad review. Here is my experience.
The office staff messed up the dates for a reservation I made for 2 sites. I was disappointed but mistakes happen.
They charged my card and have been unresponsive to my requests for a refund. I called twice, emailed twice, texted, and even drove 7 hours for an in-person visit to request they do the right thing and reimburse me for the $. I was assured at the in-person visit they would "make it right"... but they kept my money.
What a terrible way to treat your customers. I won't be back.
From the young ladies in the office, the well maintained rest rooms, activities and surrounding nature this was one of my favorite campsites I've been to. A combination of my family, friends and I have gone camping every summer since I was 5. This campground is tip notch, highly recommended!! There are also several places you a enjoy the water, it was a fast moving current while we were there but we walked in the shallow areas. Very refreshing.
