    Baker Rocks

    Beautiful property, wonderful hosts, clean and private

    Our family of 4 visited Baker Rocks during a very rainy week and still had an amazing time. The campsites are private and spacious, the property is large and beautiful, close to the river. The owners are so kind and accommodating. We stayed 2 nights in the double bell tent with two clean full size beds and a 3rd night in the yurt both were spacious and wonderful, among tall trees and pines. Definitely will be back next summer! They even have animals to visit like bunnies and goats (far away from the campsites).Do bring bug spray, the mosquitoes at certain times of day were aggressive, as to be expected.

    Pawtuckaway State Park Campground

    Large and friendly park with plenty of water activity opportunities

    My first time experiencing a park in the New Hampshire Park system. We went down with a group. Pawtuckaway State Park offers a variety of landscapes, with something to do and see for everyone. The park includes a large family beach on the lake. There are many opportunities for hiking, with trails leading to many special points of interest, including a mountaintop fire tower; an extensive marsh where beavers, deer, and great blue herons may be seen.

    The park lines the shore of beautiful Pawtuckaway Lake.  The 192 sites are wooded and many provide views of the lake.  Each campsite has an open fire ring, picnic table, flat areas for a tent, and a parking space. The bathhouses are equipped with running water, flush toilets, and 24 hour showers.  There are no hook-ups at any of the campsites. The park also has a camp store where canoe and kayaks are available, as well as a plublic canoe and kayak launch. Five cabins are available; each sleeps six people, has electricity, and includes a fire ring and picnic table. Pets are not allowed in the campground or beach area of the park.

    Oxbow Campground

    Great campground!

    Wonderful sites that are spacious! Clean, WiFi available, a pond for swimming, playground, free paddle boats :), a recreational hall with a pool table & video games, laundromat. They have lots of fun family activities! We stayed with our parents in their camper for a couple nights and had such a positive experience there! They have 3 separate ponds-one for fishing, one for boating & the larger one is for swimming. Plenty of bathrooms throughout campground and sites are not expensive to reserve. Clean & up-to-date bathrooms with hot showers. Family-oriented with friendly staff. We will be returning, for sure!

    Quechee-Pine Valley KOA

    Typical KOA

    This KOA is what you expect from a KOA– lots of amenities, sites of all sizes and levels of cost, tons of activities, and in a vacation destination area. We spent five nights at the campground and found lots to do in the area and that we had an enjoyable and pleasant stay. 

    The park is a large park that is terraced since it is in a pretty hilly area. There is the range of sites from pull-thrus, pull-ins and back-in sites and can accommodate RVs of any size. Some sites are full hookup while others are not and that is reflected in the cost. We paid $57/nigh for our full hookup site which is pretty costly especially since we did not use any of the amenities. Most sites are gravel with gravel patios but there are deluxe sites with paved patios, patio furniture, umbrella, and gas bbq grill. There are also camping cabins, some of which have kitchenettes and bathrooms that sleep six people. 

    Our site, was located in the back of the park in a quieter section because it was away from most of the activities and park entrance. The site was a pull-in which was kind of nice because the view out of our front windshield was of a wooded area. Our fire pit was in the front of our site so there was a nice amount of privacy when we sat outside by a campfire and didn’t feel like we were on the side of the road. Despite the hilliness of the park and all the trees, we did not have any trouble navigating our 45’ RV to our site. The trees at our site would prevent satellite television reception but our site had cable and we got about 20 or so channels. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Like many KOAs there are tons of amenities and things for kids to do – swimming pool, fishing ponds, bike rental, scheduled activities, propane sales, camp store, fire wood delivery, and more. There is a fenced dog park which was a fairly good size and our lab was happy to chase a ball. 

    As a whole, the park was very clean and manicured. No trash laying around and the gravel roads were free of potholes. The campground is located near the Queechee Gorge, covered bridges, hiking trails (including sections of the Appalachian Trail), good dining, maple syrup/cheese farm, the Marsh Billings- Rockefeller National Historic Park.

    Autumn Hills Campground

    Family campground

    Pros- very clean, bathrooms kept up with regularly. Staff is very nice. They offer boat rentals, canoes, paddle boats and kayaks. Store on site and they do activities during the week. Definitely more kids friendly I think. They do have a pool, park, dog park, lake and food trucks visits at times. They have community fires and dances. Pet friendly. Wood available on site.

    Cons- loud cars going all night, some lights in your face. Some people tend to fly down the road on golf carts. You can also hear the main road from the open style campsite. No privacy. People will walk threw your tent site. They will talk during the night while doing this, smoking seems to be allowed at pool. No fires between 9am-5pm.

    Overall we had a good time.

Electric (30 and 50amp), water, satellite and cable hookups as well as tank dump hookups at each site. 6 months is only 2300$ + elec. 🤯 open in the winter for $400/mo. + elec.

    Ashuelot River Campground

    Nice ‘n Easy campground

    We stayed for 3 days off season so not busy. Sites located along the river are wooded, field sites are very open great for seeing the stars at night. Sites have fire rings with excellent airflow for good burning with low smoke. Hook ups are in great condition for power, water, sewer. Showers and bath house on site. Laundry and game room at office area. Office staff was very helpful and they’re open later into the day til 7 PM. Good firewood and large bundle delivered for $15 to your site. We passed over this site on our first trip to the area but are glad we came here and we’re planning to return. Follow the website directions to get here as there are covered bridges in the area with low Clearance and low weight limits.

    Quechee State Park Campground

    Great kid friendly campground near it all

    Clean and quiet, good for kids and pets are welcome. There are 2 bathrooms with coin operated showers. There are sites for campers, tents, and a handful of lean tos. It’s a short hike down to Quechee Gorge, where you can cool off in the shallow water.

    It’s very close to Quechee village and Woodstock so there are plenty of other activities, shopping, and dining options near by.

    Rangers also run fun programs for children- my children churned butter and made popcorn over the campfire one night, and made tie dyed T-shirts the next (for no fee.)

    Pets are welcome.


Guide to Bradford

Bradford, New Hampshire sits at 660 feet above sea level within the rolling hills of central New Hampshire, approximately 30 miles northwest of Concord. The region experiences all four seasons distinctly, with humid summers averaging 80°F and winter temperatures frequently dipping below freezing. Several rivers and ponds dot the landscape, creating opportunities for waterfront camping without the crowds found at larger New Hampshire lakes.

What to Do

Kayaking on Baker River: Sandy Beach Campground provides convenient water access with a designated launching area for paddle craft. "The sandy beach by the water has plenty of room to relax out in the sun as well as launch areas to set out in a paddle boat, canoe or row boat, all available on site," notes Robert M.

Mountain biking on dedicated trails: Bear Brook State Park Campground offers extensive trail systems built specifically for mountain bikers. "We camped here to check out the mountain bike trails in the park and we're not disappointed on either count. The biking trails were a blast," shares Eammon C.

Fishing in stocked ponds: Several campgrounds maintain fishing ponds suitable for all ages. At Oxbow Campground, visitors appreciate the dedicated fishing areas. Kelly W. mentions, "The fishing pond was perfect. I will be returning soon. I highly recommend this place if you have a family or simply need a place to clear your mind."

What Campers Like

Private waterfront sites: Camping options along rivers and ponds provide both recreation and tranquility. At Crows Nest Campground, campers appreciate the waterside accommodations. Michele S. reports, "There are some nice spots by the river. Most sites do not have much privacy, but the campground itself is very quiet and clean."

Clean facilities: Maintained bathrooms and showers rank high on campers' priority lists. Brenda H. from Crows Nest notes, "This campground has nice, quiet, shaded riverside sites and other site options as well. Showers are $0.25 for 8 minutes."

Multiple swimming options: For glamping near Bradford, New Hampshire, having various water recreation choices matters. Cold Springs Camp Resort stands out with "7 pools which include 2 hot tubs, a small 2x2 pool for kiddos, 1 adult only pool and 3 family pools," according to Kara C.

What You Should Know

Site privacy varies significantly: While luxury camping options exist near Bradford, not all sites offer seclusion. Brandon C. observed at Crow's Nest: "The river sites are pretty close together with little privacy."

Weekend crowds affect experience: Expect busier facilities during peak periods. At Keyser Pond Campground, Kathleen B. noted, "It seems like the majority of the full hook up sites were seasonal and some looked to have been there for quite awhile and they appear to have squeezed in as many sites as possible."

Campground cultures differ: Some locations cater to partying while others focus on family experiences. Regarding Friendly Beaver Campground, Steve E. commented, "All everyone does here is ride around in Golf carts with cases of beer and get drunk. Not my scene!"

Tips for Camping with Families

Dedicated children's activities: When planning luxury glamping trips near Bradford, look for organized programming. Sara D. shares about Cold Springs: "So many amenities, you just couldn't get bored if you tried to. Beautiful, extremely clean bathrooms, reasonably priced little cafe, big camp store, very friendly staff."

Playground proximity considerations: Choose sites based on noise preferences. At Autumn Hills Campground, Rebecca N. reports, "Lake access, inground pool, ball field, and lots of activities for the kids makes this a great place to relax with the family."

Water recreation options: For families seeking glamping experiences, water features provide entertainment. "They have 3 separate ponds-one for fishing, one for boating & the larger one is for swimming," Sara D. mentioned about Oxbow Campground.

Tips from RVers

Site selection for large rigs: Many campgrounds accommodate large RVs but require careful navigation. At Sandy Beach Campground, Robert M. advises, "Mostly a 5th wheelers park but you can see a 34 foot class A here and there so don't fret, there is room."

Seasonal site considerations: Long-term campers dominate some locations. Patrick K. from Sandy Beach Campground shared, "What a wonderful time at sandys, would definitely stay again," after spending an entire season there.

Camp store conveniences: On-site shopping saves travel time. Stacy T. appreciated Sandy Beach's amenities: "Really loved the weekend we spent there lots to do clean bathrooms and the store on site was so convenient definitely would go back."
