With its tree-shaded, level, and grassy sites, this secluded campground is an extraordinary base for exploring the White Mountains of New Hampshire and Vermont's Green Mountains.
From jct I-93 (exit 42) & US 302: Go 5-1/2 mi W on US 302.
Nice little campground. Very helpful and friendly office and maintenance staff. Decent rv amenities worked well (W/S/E/C). Extreamly clean.
Riverside sites are serene and really add character to this campground.
About 30 mins from all the tourist sites and most trailheads in Franconia, which is good for a full hookup campground.
It is right on the rt 302 highway which can be loud/annoying at times.
Book early and get a riverside site because you wont hear the vehicles as much.
Some tent sites on the south side (furthest downstream) looked unflat and you will be sleeping on an incline. Choose toward the grassy beach if in a tent.
Cell service is non-existent 95% of the time due to the mountains.
Wifi is terrible. Even sitting right outside the office it didnt work at times. The owners need to update their wifi system and also invest in more bandwidth. It magically works great at 2am when everyone is asleep and doesn't work for more then 10 mins during peak hours, if at all.
That is a usage issue.
Other then that I enjoyed my stay.
Lovely campground in the beautiful Franconia area. Family friendly, with a pool, weekly activities and fairly clean bathrooms (some unhygienic campers can ruin their upkeep). Nice views, along side the river. Polly's Pancake house, 12 miles away. Loved it.
Just got back from a week long stay. We live about an hour south so are familiar with the White Mountains and like to check out different campgrounds. This campground is convenient to Littleton and Franconia.
The people here are the nicest we've met. Everyone who we encountered working at this campground as well as our ever changing neighbors were very friendly. Sits right on the river and would've been great for tubing! Bath house we visited at the office was exceptionally clean. Cute playground, sites were spacious and level.
Our pull though site was subjected to constant 50+ mph traffic feet away on Rt 302. It was loud and non stop- even when inside our RV. There's little privacy with sites back to back. This was definitely a deal breaker for us- one and done. Not a bad campground AT ALL just not our style.
Happy camping!
