Positioned along the Grafton Loop Trail roughly 13 miles from Puzzle Mountain parking area, this backcountry campsite requires hikers to access it on foot. The site spreads across multiple flat tent spots scattered through the forest, allowing groups to maintain some separation from each other.
A river runs within a minute's walk of the camping area, featuring several waterfalls and serving as the primary water source for campers. The site includes a vault toilet with trail maintenance tools stored behind it. Parking fees apply at trailhead lots, though no camping fees are charged at the site itself. Backpackers tackling the loop trail often use this as a staging point for multi-day trips, with sites outside Willimantic providing car camping alternatives for those preferring road access.
Description
Accommodations: 3 raised earth tent pads, designated kitchen area, composting outhouse.
