Stumbled upon this campground with no reservations set, hoping for any open tent spot at all, and received the best tent site on the grounds due to a cancellation that was made only 20 minutes prior. Site #55. You don’t feel like you’re at a campground here, and that’s what I love about this place. There’s a narrow trail to #55 that opens up to a gorgeous site right on the Saco river, views of the “Texaco Slab” directly across, and beautiful White Mountains to your left and right. The sun rises over the slab in the morning. The river is low in front of your site, however, not as low as it appears in my photos - you can actually tube down the river, and there’s a good spot for swimming just a little ways down. Ample hiking and activities to do outside of the camp! There are portable toilets off your trail near the parking area, and wagons for towing your goods to your site from your car. Real restrooms and showers are available near the entrance to the campground by the cabins if you prefer. There are “quiet hours” around 10 or 11. The general store and staff are great. There are a few wonderful riverfront sites other than 55, such as the site to the left so you have options. These sites book fast; make your reservations weeks or months in advance – unless you stumble upon great luck like I did when I first discovered Crawford Notch Campground. I’ve reserved every year since!
