Ammonoosuc Campground

This is one of the rare New Hampshire campgrounds that is open year round. For years I drove by this campground deterred by the run-down, deserted red building next door that is NOT associated with the campground. On a last-minute whim I called and snagged one of the final two sites for the holiday weekend, spending 3 nights here. I wanted to be someplace where I could track the baseball playoffs, so finding a place with wifi (fair, better closer to the bath house) and 2-3 bar 3G/4G Verizon access was a plus. This campground has a large number of seasonal sites, but also has sites available for the occasional camper, with discounts available if you stay for a week. 

Sites are wooded, generally moderately sized, though the seasonal sites are much larger. Tent sites do not have hook-ups, but they have small shelters that provide additional protection fro the weather. Some of the tent sites are sloped. They also tend to be long and narrow, opening up to a wider area with the picnic table, fire pit and tent pad. Tent sites in the K row are near the road, so although you don't get much campground noise, you do hear road traffic.

The bathhouse is clean, well-lit, and heated (a treat on those cold autumn mornings). There's also a laundry room with 4 washers and dryers if you need to clean up or dry out after a rough day on the trails. Sites are close to each other. They've separated sites with fence panels in some places to provide some privacy. There's an inground pool, a large playground, and a horsehoe pit.

Activities in the area include very convenient access to hiking trails ranging from family friendly Surgarloafs to classic 4000-footers along Franconia Ridge, and peaks along the northern ridge of the Pemi Wilderness (Garfield, Galehead, Twins), trails to Mt Washington and the Presidentials, as well as numerous peaks and waterfalls in the Crawford Notch area. Cog railway is just a few miles down the road if you want to catch an early ride. Trails for ATVs and snowmobiles are also nearby.

Year-round camping convenient to Franconia and Crawford Notches 

Just a weekend stay up in Twin Mountains. Check in was fast and efficient. Site was clean, plenty big enough. We tented, but majority of sites were for RVs. Good mix of seasonal campers and daily. 

Pool was small but sized right for the size of the campground. 
Price is great. Even reasonable prices on wood. 

Nice little covered storage open style shed on the site... at first confused why it was there, but it makes for a handy little spot to store gear and keep everything dry. 

Perfect area for fishing on the river. Hiking Mount Hale or Zealand.... etc

Great campground, great location  

Staying for a long holiday weekend. Unfortunately because of the weather we are leaving early, and were unable to enjoy the campground fully. 

The site was nice, very close to the bathhouse, which was a good thing with young children. Bathrooms and showers were clean, and water was nice and hot. 

We would like to try again in better weather. 

Wish the weather was better 

Peaceful quiet during our weekday stay  lots of seasonals  large separated sites nece fire rings  very close to Mt Washington  

This beautiful campground is located near many popular sight seeing locations, is well maintained, sites level and dirt/pine needle covered, full hookups available, tent camping available, large tree hugged sights. Tons of shade!  Handles rain well. Bathrooms are immaculate!  Owner is super sweet and helpful. I would absolutely stay here again and again!
