"The staff was helpful, the site was pretty and there are so many places to hike and the best of the Berkshires so close by."
"However the site I had was steep grade from steps to picnic table. Flat ground area for camper was very narrow.Tricky footing for older folks like my wife and I."

"Sites 1-9 are located near Berry Pond and are serviced by a pit toilet. The rest are about 1.5 miles south on the loop road."
"Stayed in a campsite near the road and the brook. It was clean and quiet. The road was right next to the site, but most drivers were respectful and drove slow."

"I'm use to the rough and tough it of backpacking the AT Trail so this place had quite a few amenities I am not use to! Haha."
"It wasn't too busy when we went- we got there on a Friday night around 6pm and were able to get a spot. There are also some fun activities within the campground, and things nearby."
"Good local access to numerous hiking trails in the area. We’ll certainly go again the future."

"It's a compact,clean campground tucked at the end of a quiet neighborhood street, within walking distance to a lake. Many of the RV site are occupied by seasonal campers, and the sites are well-kept."
"It’s located off a dead end street . There is a lame right down the street. They have cabins, tent sites and everything sites. Have a small camp store. But downtown Pittsfield very close by."

"A pretty spot near the Berkshires. This spot has rustic hikes and good swimming, plus relatively secluded campsites."
$8 - $35 / night
"We arrived at the shelter and there were some campers we greeted and then we pitched a tent nearby (vincinity camping allowed)."
"The site was clean, dry, and a nice walk off the main trail. The staff was friendly as well. We hikes around during the days and saw some spectacular views."
$14 - $17 / night
"We love the loop of sites near the entrance near the water for views but close to the bathroom, ranger station, and trails. Farther from the beach so there is less impact from the day visitors."
"There are a number of “walk in” sites that are all lovely, I suggest the sites toward the back of the park.
Hot showers, bathrooms, and dishwashing stations are available."

ScoutWe love the VT state parks and try to camp there 3-4 times a summer. We unexpectedly had a free Saturday afternoon and night and 2 borrowed kayaks. This was our first visit to Woodford. Site 13 was the only one available. It’s on the corner of the first loop, but that wasn’t an issue to us at all! There were plenty of trees and brush and space so we didn’t feel we were in the road. We drove down to the second loop and parked on the side of the campground road and carried our kayaks down to the camper’s beach. Our dog loved getting a little swim! (No dogs allowed at the day use area). The reservoir is beautiful- plenty of space to spread out for paddling and swimming. We had no issues with noise from other campers. The bathroom in the first loop is fine (cold water sinks, hand soap, paper towels). Token operated showers that we didn’t use this time. We heard coyotes at night and loons in the morning. We’re going back later this summer for a longer stay.
TravelerI don't usually put much stock in reviews about other campers, as you never know who will be there, but as other reviews have mentioned there were a ton of happy noisy kids around, couple of unleashed dogs. It looks like there are 4-5 stunningly beautiful sites in each of the three loops and everything else is jammed in. We were at the end of the middle loop and could clearly see into four neighboring sites. Bathrooms were fine, nothing special but clean. Long waits in the morning- two shower stalls and lots of teenagers. The park has a nice grassy area on the water that's dog-friendly, and a separate little no-dog swimming and paddle boat area. Trails were pretty enough if basic, Park also provided a guide to nearby hiking. Overall a good stop near Bennington but I don't know that I'd make it a destination. This whole region appears to depend on MA and NY tourism, lots of expensive vehicles/campers and price inflation at surrounding stores. Firewood was 30% more per bundle than we're used to, though there were downed trees everywhere.
ScoutThe owners were very nice and accommodating. We had a late night arrival due to multiple delays during the day and they made it very easy to get in and set up. It is a really cute little campground with a pond and surrounded by small mountains/hills covered in trees. We had a full hookup site and everything worked well. Would definitely stay there again if I’m in the area.
ScoutGreat Campsite. Well maintained. Lots of pretty lots under the shade. Good for Families. Pool. Recreation Barn. Recycling. Some people stay here all summer. Close to FDR home and library...a must to see. Quaint towns nearby.
TravelerExtremely well kept, spacious sites grounds are for the nature lover. Trails, ponds, boating. From gorgeous tent sites to a class A pull-through, this place has it all. We stayed a week in July Sun- Friday. Only wish they had fish in the ponds.
TravelerThis campground is fairly small with a lot of diversity in campsite size, privacy, and levelness. Our site was right next to another with little in between and our neighbors had a big rig and ran the generator long chunks of the day. The day use area is very nice with grass, shade and beach and swim area though it is a bit too far to walk especially with littles so be ready to drive over there. Rangers provided programming for kids and families on the weekends. Great for kayaking or Stand up paddling.
TravelerGreat atmosphere, friendly owners, pond in the middle with fishing and a dock. We had an awning issue and the owner rounded up help and fixed it quick. Thanks
ScoutAbsolutely love this spot and highly recommend if you’re looking for a super private, true primitive camping experience. You have to park at the entrance and hike in about 1.5-2 miles with everything on your back to get to the spots. Once you get there, theres quite a few sites to choose from and each offer quite a bit or privacy. It’s completely free and it usually isn’t too busy since most people don’t like having to carry all their stuff in that far. You will be in the heart of the forest/woods so definitely make sure to be prepared. We had some scares with coyotes and bears in the past but never anything crazy. They give you a semi-flat area for a tent, a fire pit and grill rack, one picnic table, and a bear box you would be sharing with other campers nearby
