THE IDEAL GETAWAY: Charlie Brown Campground is located in the peaceful, pre-revolutionary town of Eastford, Connecticut. It is nestled among rolling hills, sleepy rivers and 12,000 plus acres of state park and forests. With miles of nature trails for horseback riding, biking, walking and some of the best fishing in the state, Charlie Brown Campground offers families an ideal getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
GREAT LOCATION: Less than 40 miles from Hartford or Providence, Charlie Brown Campground is far enough to get away from it all but still right in your own back yard. This seasonal campground is well revered for its more than 30 landscaped and manicured acres and especially for its 85 grassy, over sized campsites that are perfect for family gatherings and can easily accommodate the largest RV or camper.
FUNCTION HALL RENTAL: Our awesome Recreation Hall with its stone fireplace, new heating system and full kitchen facilities is now available to rent for various functions. Affordable, convenient, and a great place for your special event, the hall might be just right for you.
CONVENIENCES: This picturesque campground may be full of country charm but it is still savvy enough to provide guests with wireless, high-speed internet, 16 channels of Direct TV cable and 30 or 50 AMP electrical service, arcade style video games and a large screen TV with full surround sound for watching movies or the big game or race.
UNIQUELY SCENIC: With a leisurely drive from Charlie Brown Campground, over scenic byways and through quaint towns formed when the country was still young, you will soon find yourself amongst country fairs, rustic farms, historic landmarks and friendly locals.
The swimming hole at CBC marks the head of the Natchaug River. This class IV drop pool river is just as thrilling for kayakers during the spring thaw as it is for the anglers, both young and old, when it slows down during warmer months becoming the second most heavily stocked Trophy Rivers in the state.
LOCAL CHARM: Time seems to slow down as you stroll through the areas famous antiques district, visit museums or treat yourself and the kids to a farm fresh ice cream cone at one of the many roadside dairy stands.
Just a little further off the beaten path you and your family can experience the New England tradition of crafting maple syrup. At a local sugar house, you can see and taste how sap is collected and then boiled down to make maple syrup and sugar.
For another local treat, stop off at one of the areas' many apple orchards. Here you and your children can pick crisp juicy apples right off the trees, pick out a carving pumpkin and even go for a tractor or horse drawn hay ride as you sip on fresh-pressed apple cider.
FUN or JUST RELAXING: Whatever your inclination might be, Charlie Brown Campground has many wonderful activities and special events to offer throughout the season.
Great care is taken to ensure that there is an abundance of camping activities such as themed weekends, barbecues, moon bounces, pony rides, horseshoe tournaments, entertainment, etc. to choose from so that your stay will not only be fun and memorable, but will keep you coming back again and again.

We love it here! One of our favorite campgrounds. And the staff is amazing!
Thank you for making our stay memorable, the Pope's.
Nice place to camp. Clean, well maintained. Great job with activities for people of all ages.
This is a family campground. Not alone for kids to do. Staff drives by and harasses u about one car on the sites continuously. Mostly seasonal campers and they are set in there ways. Not too friendly. Been to quite a few campgrounds in CT and this is my least favorite. Won't be going back here.
We enjoy going to this campground very much, it's quiet but they do have activities like a wagon ride, bingo and a Saturday night band. We normally come for Memorial day but came for a random weekend as well this year. Memorial day weekend they have a duck race that's always a lot of fun.
we stayed at the Charlie Brown campground on our way to Lake Compounce amusement park. I had foolishly forgotten to book a campsite at the amusement park, so I was frantically calling campgrounds on the way there Charlie Brown campground happen to be the first one, and even though it was only a few hours, before arrival, and we would arrive after close. The owner was very accommodating and open the gate for us after hours because we were only camping in our car. The facilities were very clean and peaceful and the river is a great spot to swim. It’s a nice spot if you’re just looking to have somewhere to spend the night. very kind owner highly recommend.
