Best Campgrounds near Brookfield, NH

Brookfield, New Hampshire provides access to several established campgrounds within a 30-mile radius, catering to various camping styles and preferences. Gunstock Campground in Gilford offers 250 sites accommodating tents, RVs, and cabins with full hookup options. Other notable options include Lake Forest RV Resort in East Wakefield and Pine Ridge Campground in nearby Acton, Maine. The region includes both family-oriented destinations with activities and amenities as well as quieter, more rustic camping experiences. Most developed campgrounds in the area provide drinking water, toilets, and fire rings, with many also offering electrical and water hookups.

Camping season in the Lakes Region typically runs from May through mid-October, with some campgrounds like White Lake State Park operating specifically from May 26 to October 8. Winter weather conditions generally make camping impractical during colder months. Many campgrounds require advance reservations, especially during summer weekends and holidays when facilities reach capacity. Several campgrounds maintain gated access with key cards for security. Travelers should verify pet policies before arrival, as rules vary by location. As one camper noted about Wolfeboro Campground, "Sites are very spacious and surrounded by trees. Very quiet campground. Definitely not a 'resort' type campground but this is exactly what we like about it."

Waterfront access represents a significant draw for many campgrounds in the area, with several offering beach access, boat launches, or direct lake frontage. Campers report high satisfaction with sites that provide both natural settings and nearby recreational opportunities. The region includes a mix of campgrounds catering to different demographics, from family-oriented resorts with activities to adult-only facilities like Potters Place Adult Camping Area. Proximity to Lake Winnipesaukee and other bodies of water enables water recreation while still maintaining a woodland camping experience. Some campers specifically seek quieter, less developed options, as evidenced by a review of Wolfeboro Campground: "Close drive to the lake and beach passes are provided with the stay. Nice wooded spaces, perfect for hammocks. Quiet and pushed back into the woods."

    Spacious Skies French Pond

    Helpful staff

    The staff was friendly. Don't forget the flashlight. There is very little lighting to find your way around the winding roads of the campground which adds to the charm.

    Gunstock Campground

    Great Spot

    Fairly extensive camp ground associated with Gunstock ski area on central New Hampshire. We arrived without a reservation a bit after the office closed, but Elena, the manager came out to let us in and allowed us to check in. She was great. Dogs must have proof of rabies vaccine. Very nice showers. Beautiful fall colors.

     Libby's Oceanfront Campground York, Maine gives campers a mesmerizing coastline scene experience' you will experience stunning sunsets and sunrises over the horizon of the Atlantic Ocean' Sitting in your chair appreciating the tranquil and serene view. You are steps away from the beach from the time you arrive to the time you departed the staff is always available and always willing to help, answer any questions and give recommendations where to go eat and shop. Very clean restrooms, clean showers, clean laundry room. We enjoyed watching the surfers right from our campsite. Nubble Light house is minutes away from the campsites you can see the lighthouse from the campsite. 

    A great place to eat breakfast were the locals go is called Ricks Blue Jay Cafe minutes away on US1 fabulous food.  Go to Granite Whale Watching at Rye, Maine, visit Beach town village in York Maine great little shops and ice cream shops.

    We highly recommended this campground we will definitely return! :-)

    Jellystone Park™ Glen Ellis

    Read before booking

    PLEASE READ BEFORE GOING We went to Jellystone Park at in Glen NH. We originally booked from Sunday to thursday. We left on Tuesday due to several issues with the cabin that the office staff refused to fix. Issues we had was 1. Cabin was filthy and had bugs inside. 2. Stove top wasnt working. 3. Fridge smelled so bad I had to wash it with warm water and dish soap. 4. Our cabin reeked like cigarettes to the point I couldn't bath my kids because when the bathroom got steamy the smell got sooo bad. I tried to adress the issues and was told they had a no smoke policy so its not their issue if it smelled because they did their part in putting a policy down. For it being filthy I was told they trust their cleaner so it qas me that made it filthy..(attached is one picture that I have this is just the bathroom on our first day their. Everything was covered in dirt, sand and soo dusty and bugs everywhere). I first spoke to James who yelled and was saying ridiculous excuses as to why its ok. Then the manager(dont remember name but she was older and blonde hair) screamed at me while I had my 2 year old with me. I was telling her calmly and very nice my concerns to which she was yelling to get out of the office. Then I was threatened to have the cops called if I complained again. I lost alot of money I cant afford to loose. But most important I was want to make people aware. I told them the website should state these things to be fair cause if I knew this i wouldn't have paid since they said its normal for stoves not to work and its out of their controll if someone smokes in the cabin. They said no one would stay if they posted those things. I left litterally shaking and crying because I couldn't believe it. They are nice if you dont complain. Discusting customer service horrendous management. Will be reporting everywhere already let my friends know so they dont go next year.
