Best Campgrounds near Williamstown, MA

I want to start out by saying I've been coming to Country Aire Campground for over 15 years. I truly love this place for many reasons. However, I recently camped there and that was the last time for me. Not only was the campground a complete mess, the employees were pissy about it. Like damn, it's not the campers fault. Don't take it out on us. We are your paying customers. Drop the attitude.Thankfully I brought a rake, and took care of the site.(You guys are welcome by the way.. gez!) I also believe that Lisa(office manager- she usually answers phones) needs to retire. She's getting worse and worse every year. She snaps at everyone for the littlest question or comment. Her customer service SUCKS! Country Aire supports Trump and tried to hide it. Upon my arrival on Thursday there was a Trump lawn sign on the property. Absolutely heartbreaking to see that, I disregarded it as I don't like to bring politics into everything. However, They literally moved the sign the next day. What the hell? Don't pretend. It makes you look even shittier than supporting that POS! There was an RV group there this weekend and several of them were also Trump supporters and were not shy about it at all.(Maybe that's why country aire left their Trump sign up to begin with?) The group was rude as hell. Just because you have a MAGA hat and a million dollar motor home does NOT make you better than the rest. As with any business, keep politics and religion out of it. You dont know WHO is camping at your campground. Nor do you know who you're offending. I'd love to continue coming to Country Aire but morally I just can't support this business any longer. It's a damn shame because I recommended this campground all the time. Tooooo many things went wrong this weekend and after 15 years I will no longer be camping at country aire.

This trailhead provides access to bicycle-friendly nature trails. I explored both directions on my bike, riding approximately half a mile down each side. The terrain eventually transitions into a low-lying, swampy area, likely due to recent rainfall over the past week.

About 500 feet down the right-hand trail, there is a smaller path branching off to the left. This leads to a previously used campsite, approximately 200 feet from the main trail. The site includes a stone fire ring, indicating prior use.

Given that camping is permitted anywhere in the woods as long as it’s at least 150 feet off the trail, the surrounding area offers an abundance of potential camping spots.

I stayed at Alpine Lake RV Resort for three nights and had an absolutely fantastic experience. The entire resort is beautiful and well-maintained, with peaceful surroundings and stunning natural scenery. The lake views are especially breathtaking — perfect for early morning coffee or a sunset stroll.

The RV sites were spacious and clean, with full hookups and easy access. Everything was well organized, and I appreciated the quiet atmosphere and friendly neighbors. The staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming from the moment I arrived, making check-in a breeze and offering tips on things to do in the area.

There were plenty of activities to keep me entertained — from relaxing by the lake and enjoying the hiking trails to spending time at the recreation areas. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful retreat or an active getaway, this place has something for everyone.

I’ll definitely be returning and would recommend Alpine Lake RV Resort to anyone looking for a memorable outdoor escape.

Camping on the Battenkill is truly a gem in the Green Mountains. Excellent location and quiet campground with Battenkill swimming and world-class trout fishing. It features, wooded, sunny and on the river sites. W/E/S is available at some sites and W/E at others(nearest the river) as well as tent sites. All these sites are very roomy/private, with pull-thrus available and back-ins. There are two newly renovated,immaculate bathrooms. A lovely well-maintained grassy play area and great dog area for play/exercising. The camp office/store has also been all redone and has a great mix of items/supplies. There are washers/dryers on the grounds as well as firewood and ice available to purchase. We are very happy seasonal campers. It is under new ownership and the new manager is just spectacular,Janet will go out of her way to be extra helpful and accommodating and friendly as well as hands on. Our site has S/W/E with cable and wifi, and is nicely shaded-25b. We are here May 1-Oct12, and sad to leave every year and anxious to return every spring! This is truly a lovely and pretty park. We camped at Camping on the Battenkill in a Fifth Wheel.
