Chill spots with nearby creek and river

Highwater trail with bridge close by. Great stars. Creek runs through road near sites good for getting water to filter or washing. Trailhead at end of road.

Fabulous Front Backcountry Camping

8 huge, beautiful campsites in the heavily wooded Evans Notch section of The White Mountains National Forest. It's easy to forget there are other people camping on other sites because they're so far apart. It's wonderfully relaxing and quiet. The only thing I regret not bringing with me is a table to put my camp stove on.

Little larry!! Amazingly peaceful spot.

Have stayed at all upper sites. Beautiful serene and quiet. Site 4 and 5 get some cell service. Upper two top sites beware of bears especially the right side site. Game trail heaven. Amazing little larry brook. Great flat sites except top two. Highly recommend

Adorable private spots

We pulled in around 7:30 pm on a Sunday night and there were plenty of open spots. We took a huge one. Found a fairly flat area and stayed for the night.

Just enough t-mobile / starlink signal to watch streaming and message, but wouldn't be enough for remote work so we went to the White Mountain National Forest Picnic area off the main road about 5 minutes away and had great signal

Rustic and quiet, out of the way

These campsites are located on a dead end dirt road.  The campsites are spread out so you are not on top of each other (I think there are only 8 sites on the road.)  There is a fire pit but no other amenities.  The site at the very top of the road is huge and has a nice stream but if you are camping at any of the other sites, you don't have water flowing by.  The sites are a great size and are surrounded by trees.  The road is uphill.  It is very quiet except for the occasional loud motorcycle that you might hear down on the main road.  My husband and I love staying here. We have stayed here quite a few times and have always had a good time.  You can drive out to the main road and be right on the river.
