Ames Brook Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Hikers, anglers, and paddlers heading into New Hampshire's Lakes Region will find Ames Brook Campground a practical base, with quick access to nearby lakes and trails off Route 93 in Ashland. Sites range from wooded to open, giving campers some choice in shade and exposure. Some sites sit along a brook that can rise noticeably after heavy rain, though reviewers note it has not intruded on campsites during past visits.

The grounds are consistently well-maintained. Reviewers across multiple visits highlight cleanliness as a standout feature, particularly the bathrooms and showers, which one visitor described as offering free hot water with good water pressure. The single bathhouse also includes a laundry room. Not all sites are spacious, and seasonal campers occupy a portion of the campground, so site density is worth factoring in when booking. Full hookups are available for RVs up to 50 feet, and the campground also provides WiFi, a pool, a playground, and a camp store stocked with basics.

"Dog friendly, clean, well kept," notes Camie S., who also mentions receiving a small welcome gift at check-in. Pets are allowed, reservations are accepted, and the season runs mid-May through mid-October, with nightly rates between $42 and $49. Campers who want a different setup nearby can look at Adventure Bound New Hampshire as an alternative, or browse campgrounds near Ashland for additional options in the area.

Campers regularly cited well-maintained grounds, exceptionally clean facilities, and friendly staff as standout features. Sites offer good variety though some are closer together, and pricing opinions were mixed.

Well maintained campground

Not all sites are overly spacious, some are in close proximity and there are many seasonal campers but the grounds are very well maintained and the bathrooms and showers are exceptionally clean (and free hot showers with good water pressure!). There is also a clean laundry room as well as a nicely kept playground and pool. Overall, a nice place but on the expensive side.

Friendly

Our site had stone, like some of the others, some small sites but nicely wooded for shade and a little bit of privacy. I think there is only one bath house/laundry area, didn't go in because we didn't need to. Pool looked nice, although it's right along the road. The camp store has all the right stuff in case you've forgot something. Got a nice little bag of chocolate and an Ames Brook sticker upon checking in. Dog friendly, clean, well kept, campground.

Quick 1 Night Camping

One night camping at Ames Brook on their opening weekend. Staff were very friendly, campground is clean, nice selection of wooded to open camp sites. Prices are very reasonable. Easy to get to off Rt. 93, in Ashland, quick ride to many area attractions like hiking, lakes, etc.

Site 27 is very large, near a cute babbling brook. Rained the majority of the evening, so the brook grew quite a bit but didn't intrude on the site. Great little 1 night trip to kick off our season.
