Macedonia Brook State Park

Where can I begin the place is great it's perfect for teaching scouts of all ages how to take and prepare for the wilderness survival badges place is clean it has running water has a porta potty and festival you don't have to worry because the state of Connecticut d e e p it's just a phone call away it does have some cell service but you got a gift towards the building I believe there's a repeater or a satellite relay in the building I'm not sure. all in all: 10 out of 10

No cell service.

Loved the drive to the camp and following the winding brook. The camp sites were laid out kind of odd, making some of them right up on a neighbor spot even when they didn't need to be, but the campground was only about 10% full when we were there, so it didn't affect us.

Well spaced sites. No bathhouse, just portable toilets and a few water pumps. And a night sky as dark as you can find in CT

Nice campsites with little traffic.  The brook was great for the kids to explore

Delighted to find this facility on our return trip from Maine to NC. We camped next to the brook and one couldn't have had a much better experience! Had supper in nearby Kent which is a fantastic small village.

Macedonia State Park is a lovely little spot to camp. I stayed there for a night and it was very quiet and very safe. Our camp spot was right above the river the flows behind this spot. You can go sit down by the water. But be careful! As we were walking back up to our tent there was a small bear within feet from us that we almost didn't see! Also Kent is nearby and it is a beautiful town!

While I would probably skip Macedonia on the weekends in summer since it looks like it could get packed, a little more off season and during the week it was great. Hardly anyone around, we had a site right next to the stream. The loop hike over the mountains was good, at times more intermediate than beginner and I wouldn't try to go it with younger kids. We did the east side one afternoon and the west the next. The west side the trails aren't marked as well and the map at the ranger's station is off a bit (they don't give out maps, take a picture with your phone). Overall a good trip.
