  The Birches Resort

  The Birches Resort

  My husband and I camped at one of three tent sites that are located right on the lake. There is a new (or at least very clean) Porta-Potty for these three sites to share. There was also a VERY outdated/pieced together shower house near the office--something is better than nothing, I suppose. Back to the campsites: private, good amount of space, a picnic table, a firepit, and a trash can provided at each site. We did have some cleaning up to do when we arrived--bottle caps and even some Mich Ultra bottles littered the ground. But overall we had a pleasant stay--being on the lake was enough for us to overlook the litter we had to pick up when settling in.

  Moosehead Family Campground

  Absolutely Wonderful

  My large family and I spent a week here. First, the campground is easy to find and making reservations is a snap! The owners are two of the greatest people I’ve met. They are more than friendly and accommodating. They work hard keeping the entire property neat including the bathhouse. Honestly, it’s the cleanest bathroom/shower house I’ve seen. There is a playground for kids and plenty of room at each site for them to play. My family and I agree, this place is incredible and you would be foolish to go elsewhere.

  Mollidgewock State Park Campground

  A Hidden Gem with hidden spots

  Here I am, going to ruin it... no, really pretend you didn't read this... The main campground is nice, it has some great group spots, and some close sites, even a few semiprivate ones. After all it is a campground build on an old section on RTE 16.  The campground as others have mentioned is right on the river, and a wonderful river it is.

  This is primitive camping, no water, no electrical, but it does have pit toilets and boat rentals and a day use area.

  The hidden spots though are totally private and not at the main site but else ware on rte. 16, the ranger told me about them.  They are amazing (I didn't say that)

  Access is easy for any vehicle, minimal cell coverage.

  They are currently doing a dig and finding some amazing artifacts!

  Lake Francis State Park Campground

  Quiet, clean, and pretty

  There are a number of nice campsites right on the lake, but even if you don’t have a waterfront site, there is a public boat launch. There is a dishwashing station, laundry facilities, showers, and bathrooms, all very clean. Perfect for fishing, hiking, and kayaking.

  Cathedral Pines Campground

  Pine Paradise

  We have stayed here several times and love it here!

  The sites are beautiful, well spaced and well taken care of. The only "downside" is if you have a longer camper there are tight corners you need to be aware of in the camp roads. If you're good at maneuvering you're good to go. 

  On our last trip we rented double kayaks and paddled over to Brickyard Hollow for pizza and beers.

  Mollidgewock State Park Campground

  Can't Beat It

  While this is close to the road, there is a good buffer of vegetation between the road and the campsites. I've camped here multiple times and never hear the road. Most sites are right on the Androscoggin River and the serenity is priceless. There are many grassy tent sites that can also accommodate small campers, like pop ups. There are a few lean-tos (2) and a few sites with wooden platforms. 

  The gentleman working the office was super kind and helpful. There was good signage indicating how to proceed for various needs in his absence, including how to purchase firewood and checking in/out. There is recycling available near most sites next to the various pit toilets. At this time, there are no showers or flush toilets but according to park staff, a facility for these items will be built in the near future.

  Most sites are grassy but a few are hard packed dirt and a few had newly dispersed wood chips. Bathrooms were clean, water spigots are readily available as well. Sites are well maintained and some are closer together than others. Many have direct access to the river. There's really not a bad site.

  Aziscoos Valley Camping Area

  Serene riverside beauty

  We booked a no-hookup site by the river for a week long stay with our travel trailer. The grounds were extremely well kept and the showers and main restrooms were the cleanest I have seen. Our site was in an open grassy area that was visible from the road with great views of the river. Though the site was open, the camp sites are spaced far enough apart that we still felt that we were camping privately. The river is clean with a solid though slightly rocky bottom and a moderate current that is suited for wading if that is your thing and excellent for tubing. Fly fishing only is permitted is you obtain the permit. ATT and Verizon both provided cell phone service at our site but data service was not useful on either. The campground does have drinking water and a dump station on site as well as sites with power hookups. Firewood was available for the going rate and each site had a firepit and grate which we found to be very clean and well kept. The host was very friendly and accommodating to us and was able to drop us off upriver so we could drift downstream to our campsite on our tubes. Overall this campground provided an amazing experience that we would not hesitate to repeat.

  Mollidgewock State Park Campground

  Pro: Stunning, Friendly People; Cons: Very Close to Road and Other Sites

  Spent three nights at Mollidgewock State Park recently. Absolutely beautiful positioning next to a river. Clean sites - many covered in grass with wildflowers which were stunning. Ours had gravel which I ended up being pleased about after finding a tick crawling on our tent. The owner/manager was extremely friendly and helpful. The pit toilet was very clean, well-ventilated, and stocked with toilet paper and hand sanitizer. The main bummer was the proximity to a road -- the road noise was pretty significant (you could also hear ATVs behind the road). I think it would have been less noisy further in the campground (higher-numbered sites) where the river noises were louder. I would definitely recommend a campsite further in (avoid sites #1-5 ish that are directly next to the road - car lights will shine in your tent at night as cars drive in). This wasn't a huge deal, but the sites further down were more private and further from the driveway. 

  Errol does not have much in the way of grocery stores and there are apparently two restaurants but we didn't check those out. Excellent outdoor gear/supply store! 

  They rent kayaks/canoes on the property which was fun (saw a bald eagle). Awesome hikes nearby - we did Dunn Falls in Maine. 

  Overall, great campground but would probably choose a different site next time as I prefer a more private set up.

  Cathedral Pines Campground

  B-E-A-Utiful

  Don’t peal the bark! The cathedral pines are stunning to behold and I appreciate that the campground staff discourage visitors from messing with the trees. For such a large campground it’s surprisingly peaceful, there is just enough space between sites but they are not private.

  The Birches Resort

  Great Camping Spot Near Historic Lodge

   There are a few times in your travels when you find someplace you never want to leave. It’s the kind of place where you pull in and it just feels right and we found ourselves at the registration desk extending your stay…and again…and again. The Birches Resort and Campground in Rockwood, Maine was that slice of paradise we absolutely loved. 

  The Birches is perched on Moosehead Lake about 30 minutes north of Greenville which is a pretty small town (we’re talking population 1,600) with a few restaurants, a fly fishing shop, a great grocery/outdoor/camping/clothing store and a scattering of interesting attractions like an old passenger ship offering lake excursions. There is a ferry over to Mt. Kineo which has spectacular hiking and definitely worth spending an afternoon. There is great fishing in the area in numerous rivers and lakes. 

  The Birches has a magnificent historic lodge dating back to the 1930’s that is warm and comforting and smells of wood burning fires, fresh coffee, and salty bacon. There are only a handful of campsites (for RV’s and tents) and a bunch of cabins all with great views. Don’t be expecting to have all your creature comforts of television, wifi, and phone service because they are nonexistent or sketchy at your site. However, the lodge provides all those services where you can enjoy them by the fire or at the bar. There is also a full-service restaurant serving three meals a day with delicious comfort food like Thanksgiving turkey dinner, slow roasted prime rib, and French onion soup. RV sites can be a little tight for larger RVs but we were able to manage. The best campsite (#5) backs up to the lake so your patio and fire pit are right there on the water and provide spectacular sunrises. Our site was 30-amp which was fine for us as we were there in October and didn’t need air conditioning. Since no one else was coming into the site next to us, we were allowed to pull in such that we took up two spots and overlooked the marina. There was water but no sewer however the dump station was easy to access and never very busy since the campground is so small. The tent sites are located farther away from the lodge and facilities but are spacious and private with great water views. The sites are surrounded by trees so you get some shade if you want or can be in the open sunny areas. Each tent site has its own garbage can so you don’t have to trek over to the dumpster. There are also picnic tables, rock-lined fire rings, low electric hook-up, and a water spigot. The restroom/showers were older but clean and we did not mind showering there which meant we didn’t have to pack up the RV and dump our tanks during our stay. They do have a hot tub for those who like to soak in steaming water. 

  We absolutely loved our stay at the Birches. Having the lodge for warm fires, cold beer, and hot meals was a definite plus. There are so many outdoor activities between hiking, fishing, paddling, and just enjoying the natural beauty. There are boat rentals and seaplane flights you can book for sightseeing and a launch for boats/paddle craft. We will definitely be back.

  Great camping in the great north woods

  This campground was small and quiet with majority of sites for tents only. The river was super calm so we were able to take our paddle board out and explore the waters. They have a small camp store and vault toilets but they were pretty clean. Overall a great campground in the northern area of NH! We stayed at site 18 which was next to a large field with tent sites on the river. Luckily no one was camping around us this weekend and it felt like we had the place to ourselves

  Northeast Whitewater Lodge

  Yurts and Tent Camping

  Northeast Whitewater is a mix of guide service, moose viewing tours, whitewater rafting, and camping. The camping options are yurts and primitive tent camping. There are no RV/Van camping facilities. All camping is walk-in as you can’t drive to your site but most campsites and yurts are not too far away. There are six yurts all with varying configurations, sleeping anywhere from 1-2 people (with king sized bed) up to up to six people (with bunk beds). All yurts have electricity and come equipped with heaters and fans; in addition, pillows, bedding and linens are supplied. Depending on the particular yurt you choose, some have small refrigerators, table and chairs, and nightstands. 

  Tent sites are primitive with fire pits and picnic tables. The ground is level and cleared so there is no problem finding a place to put your tent. The sites are fairly close together so you will definitely hear and see your neighbor. There is no water or port-a-potties at camping sites. One bathhouse is located adjacent to the main building and there is a dish washing station located there as well. The bathhouse was clean when we visited (but we were not there during the busy summer season as there are many rafting trips and those customers share the same bathroom). The bathhouse is pretty far away from the camping area which is inconvenient when you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. All yurts and campsite have trash cans located at the site. Each site has a large fire pit and removable cooking grates are available. There are rustic log benches around the fire pits. 

  Yurts and campsites are located behind the main building/office but you still get some road noise as Route 6 is a heavily traveled road. As far as amenities, there is a volleyball net and corn holes. A covered pavilion is located between the campsites and the main building and has a few picnic tables underneath. The main building has a gift shop stocked with moose gifts, apparel, snacks, drinks, and an assortment of “camp stuff.” This is also where you can book a moose tour, rafting trip, or inflatable kayaks if you are feeling adventurous. 

  The campground is located between the towns of Monson and Greenville. The Monson General Store is a great little store with an assortment of grocery items and makes really good sandwiches and the nearby Lakeshore House Lodge and Pub has the most wonderful pot roast. Greenville has a larger grocery/trading post which has pretty much everything you need from shoes to lettuce. Hiking in the area is great! You can pick up the Appalachian Trail or head to Little Wilson Falls for a nice, wooded walk along a stream to a pretty waterfall. Borestone Mountain is nearby and provides amazing views.

  Lake Francis State Park Campground

  Remote, scenic, quiet park

  I tent camped at site 6 for two nights in early September for a trail volunteer event for the Cohos Trail I and had an awesome stay.

  For facilities, there is a camp office (though hours were not consistent), basic camp store, coin op showers, coin op laundry, a big dish cleaning station, and clean bathrooms.

  For activities, this site is awesome for fly fishing folks since it’s a short walk from one of the best spots in NH.

  I saw lots of folks kayaking and canoeing and there’s a public boat ramp a short walk from the campground. There was a sign for rentals but I didn’t see any available. This may be for earlier in the season.

  The sites vary in terms of privacy. The lakefront sites were spectacular but you are close to your neighbors. I was in site 6, in one of the small loops off the waterfront drive. These spots were close together but were separated by some brush to make them feel more secluded. The tent sites in the outer loops looked to offer more privacy.

  This campsite was full the weekend I was there and very lively during the day but very quiet and peaceful in the evening.

  Lake Francis is way up in NH so this does feel remote. The main activities are hiking, fishing (both fly and from the boat), and I saw a host of folks ATVing.

  I would definitely come back on account of the great fishing and peacefulness at night.

  Family time

  Nice campground. Super friendly people. Very busy campground, but everyone is very respectful. Great place for kids and families. Our site was right on the lake. Places to grill and dock your boat. Bathrooms and showers very clean. There’s also a very nice pavilion if it’s rainy. Only thing was a tad frustrating was the amount of dogs who barked all day at everything. Overall a great place to camp with the family

  Lake Francis State Park Campground

  Remote and crowded

  Everyone is looking for something different when they camp. But I still don't understand the love for this place. The campsites are on top of each other. I am listening to the teens swear at each other on one side and the people on the other side are watching a show that I can follow along with them. This is a one night stop over for me, thank goodness. The lake is a nice lake. There are lots of nice lakes to camp around that don't require driving to the border of Canada. If you require 30 amp service for your "CAMPING" while you leave your outdoor lights on so the rest of us can "appreciate" not being able to see the sky, well, I am super sorry that the hookups are not to your liking. As my husband says, 'why would you drive hours to sit closer to strangers than you do at home?' I think I have a pair of earplugs in my bag, thankfully. If you like to fish or ATV, I guess this it the spot. Facilities are very nice. I guess people like to do laundry while they camp? For a week? Who does laundry more than once a week?

  Breathtaking scenery but very rudimentary amenities

  We stayed at Mollidgewock State Park in June 2022 at site 023. Pros: The views of the Androscoggin River are breathtaking from this site and most riverfront sites in the park. We kayaked on the river, made friends with our campsite neighbors, and explored the town of Errol and beyond. It was very affordable and private. Cons: The pit toilets were very full (too full), it was very buggy, and there were no showers. We also did not have cell reception on Sprint network.

  Lake Francis State Park Campground

  Beautiful spot and Friendly Staff

  This is a gem! Off the beaten path way up north in Coos country and absolutely stunning. The only downside to our experience was that our site was directly in front of another site, which required driving through our site to get to the one behind us. Poor design for sure.

  That being said, the park staff were incredibly kind and did their best to address the annoyance. The lake was incredibly low so it was a good thing we weren't trying to launch a boat. The bathrooms were clean but beware, the shower has so much water pressure it might take your skin off! But the water was super hot which I appreciated. 

  The sites were well manicured and clean. The dogs really enjoyed the lush green grass! While it didn't rain during our stay, this site would have been decent if it had. It was late in the fall season so it wasn't super crowded but there was a bit of noise (fireworks and gunshots) in the vicinity. There are a few trails you can hike but the park is mostly centered on lake-based activities.

  Moosehead Family Campground

  Tight for big rigs, great location

  Small campground with 36 RV and tent sites located just a couple of miles from downtown Greenville. The owners are very nice and helpful and are always busy working in the campground. The campground has lots of large trees and narrow roads which make it very difficult for big rigs. In fact, there was only one of two sites in the front section that would fit our 45’ motorhome. The back section of the park was way too tight for us to navigate. 

  Our site (#25) was a long pull thru that sloped down in the front and took a bit for us to get level and our front steps were pretty high off the ground. We had 50-amp electric which worked fine and a water hookup. Since we had a clear view to the sky, we were able to use our satellite television. Due to the campground’s location in a remote part of Maine, I’m sure our over-the-air antenna would not have worked. They did have wifi which worked great at out site. The tent sites are located off to themselves in a wooded area not too far from the bathrooms. The back section of the campground is heavily treed with nice amounts of shade. Most of the sites have good separation from the neighboring site and privacy. The fire pits have grates next to them so you can cook over the fire. There are garbage cans scattered about the campground which makes it easy to dump your trash. No sewer at any sites but there is a dump station and they offer a pump out service for$20. We contemplated using the dump station but the roads were so tight that it would have been difficult for us to pull into it and our RV would have scrapped lots of trees. There are apple trees everywhere in the campground. The owner said he does rake them but so apparently it was a banner year, so there were tons of apples which meant that you did get a smell from the rotting ones. The bathrooms were old and pretty nasty and we didn’t want to use the toilet, much less shower there. Despite having a pull thru site, we had to back out because we would have had to go thru the back part of the park and because of the low hanging trees without scraping our RV. Also, the turn into the campground from the main road (Route 6) is very tight and we ended up having to go into the other lane and take up the whole road in order to make the turn in. 

  We did like the proximity of this campground to downtown Greenville. The area is beautiful with great hiking, boating, and fishing. Just a short drive away is the east outlet of the Kennebec River which is renowned for its fly fishing. Some touristy things to do are a boat ride on the Katahdin (an old steam ship), ferry ride over to Mt. Kineo for hiking with a great view, and a drive out to the B-52 crash site.

  Spectacular campsite and great facilities

  I stopped here along a Cohos Trail thru-hike with a reservation. I had pre-booked campsite 41 and it did not disappoint, with a tent platform right off the water with great views, and a short walk up to the facilities. The campground was busy but things were quiet early.

  Facilities in the main office were clean. Amazing fishing was also a short hike away up the Connecticut River up to the River Road covered bridge.

  Great, tight car camping right off the river

  I stopped here during a quick NH weekend with the goal of a quick overnight and some fishing, and Mollidgewock was great for that use.

  The sites were all parking next to your site. Some were in loops with a bunch of sites a bit close together, so they were not very private. Some were a bit more spread out. A few actually have tent platforms and are right on the water, like sites 34 and 36.

  Despite the sites being closer together, this campsite was quiet in the evening and morning. I got up early and was able to just walk along the river to some great fishing spots. 

  Bathroom pit toilets were really spaced out and close to each campsite location.

  Excellent if you like primitive camping by the river

  I spent three days camped by the river with my little 12 ft pack boat. Caught about a dozen small rainbows anchored at the head of the rapids. No showers or flush toilets which is how I like it. Lake Umagog is a short hop away. Good sized sporting goods shop nearby. No t-mobile reception in the campground but a short drive will get you to a signal.

  Coleman State Park Campground

  Very nice remote Campground

  One of the furthest north campgrounds in New Hampshire is a great place to stay.  If you don't mind the sound of ATVs this place is great.  I stayed here on Sept 11th and we had a nice quiet stay.

  As others have mentioned you need to check in at the cabins a little down the road but sites can be reserved online easily.  Most of the sites are nice, there are a few near the road that I would not recommend on high traffic weekends, due to the fact that they are right on the road.

  The mix of site types is one of a kind for the area, Lodges, Cabins, Lean-to and tent sites.  There is one main facility building with laundry and bathrooms and then a remote outhouse as well.   There are also some recreational buildings that look like they can be rented for events.

  The pond is wonderful, the sounds of loons - Magical.

  We stayed at site 17 and it was nicely tucked into the trees. I was amazed to see the cabins that were in the woods behind us, they were very cute and I might consider those for another weekend.

  If you enjoy exploring the woods, fishing and being in the wild this is a good clean option.

  Cathedral Pines Campground

  Excellent campground

  We stayed only one night, but wouldn’t mind at all if we stayed longer. The site was level and quite private. We weren’t able to stay in a lake front sit, but ours was very close to the lake that came with a slight view of the water. There’s a gate that locks between 8 pm and 8 am. You can get a key card with a $10 deposit. The lake is beautiful and the campground was very quiet. It was also very easy to find.
