Currently this location has a lean-to being constructed. It also has a brand new fancy moldering privy and a bear box.

This particular campground is a little small, but I think it is nice and I like it nonetheless. It sits right off of Stratton Pond. As the sun sets, you'll hear some birds and the spring peppers start to peep to send you off to sleep. The location is incredibly quiet and the hike up to here is beautiful -- doesn't matter which direction you come from. Since this particular site is close to the Stratton Pond Shelter (located east of this side of the pond) it likely gets less use. Bonus points it is off the Appalachian Trail/Long Trail for it being used less. If you're looking to make a loop with Stratton Mountain, or a relatively easy out and back along trail 407 and 431, or up trail 441 and take a left -- this location and Bourn Pond are excellent choices.
