"Nice trail to the river next to our site. Dog friendly. Fun little scavenger hunt for kids of all ages. Short walk over to Coos Canyon rest area with great swim holes."

$20 - $30 / night
"Our camp sites were next to each other but also very private. No water or electricity except at the main bathrooms where there are showers, toilets and a dish wash station. Beautiful lake!"

$40 - $80 / night
"In addition, there are a few pit toilets scattered around.
Sites are generally small and wooded, but sites 1a-d and 3-4 are open/sunny and near the beach."
"This campground is right on the lake with access to boating and fishing. The bathrooms are clean and also nice showers. The overall layout of the sites is a little weird as you pull around."
"Very nice has a pool close to grafton state park"
"Sites are a little close to each other, but they're very long. Great pool, fun rec room area (we learned how to play shuffleboard!) We were the 2nd tiny house there!"
"This is my 2nd year returning to lone mountain river front camping in Andover Maine. The peace and tranquility here is tough to beat."
"This location has stunning landscape, but getting there is somewhat difficult. I used a Google map to find the path, but it didn't take me to the exact address I was looking for."
"We've been wilderness camping on Lake Richardson with South Arm Campground for many, many years. "

Have camped here in summer (be prepared for bugs) and winter (no services) and enjoyed every visit."

"Absolutely beautiful positioning next to a river. Clean sites - many covered in grass with wildflowers which were stunning."
"It is also near Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge where you can view moose and loons galore! I've enjoyed kayaking and photography there. "
"It is very close to the highway so there there is some traffic noise but not bad. Tents are in a different area."
"There was a very cool suspension bridge to take you to on a walk to a private island. I definitely plan on visiting again!"
TravelerWe stayed on site #5 because it was flat, sunny, grassy and had a little brook. Had some passing by traffic but each site is far apart from each other.
GuideThis a beautiful spot, right on the Lake, listened to the loons, watched Canadian Geese with their goslings and saw a bald eagle swoop down and try to get something. There is a Really nice grocery store near by. We went to Maine Cabin Masters Store, which if you’re a fan was fun.
GuideThis is a very nice campground. There are new owners, when we got there it was the beginning of the season.
TravelerNew shower and bathroom building was clean. Campsites were well spaced.
GuideMy family of 4 tent camped for 1 night as we were making our way from Maine back to Indiana as part of our summer ‘24 New England camping adventure road trip. Roads through the White Mountain National Forest were easy to navigate. The campground roads were paved.
Upon entering campground we saw many “beware of bear signs”. The campground ranger station confirmed that black bear are prominent and will venture across picnic tables and sites, so be certain to store food & toiletries safely per rules!
Our campground loop was “HAYE” and very quiet and clean. We tent camped at site 130. It was near restroom. The restroom was well lit and very clean. Lots of room inside to change clothes and freshen up at sink. We were sure to bring a flashlight to check surroundings to ensure no bear surprises at night! There were shower houses at other campground loops. Half of the showers didn’t work upon inserting coins, so that wasn’t ideal, but they were clean facilities, so my advice would be to check the shower is functioning before stripping down!
We didn’t get to explore the forest trails as this was more of a 1-night stop, but I will definitely come back. I was hoping to see moose! There are signs to watch for moose throughout the forest as they are definitely around.
We booked tickets to the Mount Washington Cog Train months in advance, so we got to explore the area & views via steam train - highly recommend!!!
TravelerWe were informed that this was a free (by donation) campground. We stayed one night, intending for two, and in the early afternoon we were greeted by the park manager.
He informed us that the park was not open, but because of the misunderstanding we were okay to stay the night. We decided to be polite and just pack up and find somewhere else.
For anyone curious they open 5/9/2025 for reservations and ACTUAL camping.

TravelerIt was a great place for Rainy Camping. We went during a pouring rain storm and our site remained relatively dry. We even enjoyed a small fire the next day.
TravelerLoved this place! Small store with local goods and basic needs, gated entry, wooded camping areas, small cabins, Camper Vans, you name it and it was there. I personally stayed at a tent site that was right next to the perfect view of the river with a beach area and fire ring. Potable water throughout. I'd absolutely return!
GuidePerfect for family camping! Fishing, swimming, river walks, biking and movie nights!
