Best RV Parks & Resorts near Center Sandwich, NH

Several RV parks near Center Sandwich accommodate various motorhome sizes and preferences. Newfound RV Park in Bridgewater offers full hookup sites with 30-amp service, operating from May through October with good water pressure. Meredith Woods Four Season Camping provides year-round RV sites with electric, water, and sewer connections, while Danforth Bay Camping & RV Resort features over 300 sites across nearly 200 acres with both pull-through and back-in options. Turtle Kraal RV Park in Alton maintains 50-amp hookups on gravel sites with a gated entrance and operates May through November. "The pull through was very narrow, uphill and sandy with many tall mature trees on either side. Leveling was a challenge."

Access roads to some campgrounds require careful navigation, particularly for larger rigs. Many parks have gravel pads rather than concrete, with varying degrees of levelness—some visitors report needing blocks to level their units on sloped sites. Cell service varies significantly throughout the region, with Verizon generally providing 1-3 bars at most locations. Dump stations are available at most parks, though not all—Turtle Kraal and Newfound RV Park provide on-site dumping facilities. Seasonal availability differs substantially, with several parks closing after Columbus Day weekend while others like Meredith Woods remain open year-round. Most campgrounds require advance reservations during summer and fall foliage seasons, with holiday weekends typically booking months ahead.

    Scenic View Campground

    Great experience!

    For a smaller campground it was everything we wanted; it was quiet; and the sites were a good size for our pop up; we stayed at site 20; which was the biggest along the waterfront. There is a nice walking trail and peaceful water view sites. The staff was super friendly and made our stay very enjoyable! Sites of all sizes from tent sites to large pull through sites for the big rigs! We will deff be back! Smaller camp store but there is a hardware/general store right down the road. Close to ATV trails. Ports potties were exceptionally clean. Propane is also sold on site. Pet friendly with appropriate documentation. I look forward to our next trip!

    Ammonoosuc Campground

    Year-round camping convenient to Franconia and Crawford Notches

    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.

    Turtle Kraal RV Park

    5 star RV campground - all the amenities and well cared for!

    Turtle Kraal RV campground is a gated RV campground just outside Alton Bay NH.  Lots of great restaurants, ice cream shops and water activities are nearby!  

    The sign was easy to spot, right off the road, GPS leading us right to the entrance.  There is a long approach after you see the sign, and even a sharp turn before you see the gate.  We met the man at the gate (with his incredibly enormous husky) and provided us all the information we needed.  This campground has wifi, good cell signal (AT&T and Verizon), a great pool, is pet friendly and well maintained.  The bathhouse and pool were both very clean, and for as many RV's that were there - that was amazing!  Each site has a firepit and a picnic table - though many sites have additions and build for an extended stay!  

    This campground is huge - there is a lower loop and an upper loop with the bathhouse and pool right in the center.  Kids can ride their bikes around both loops, walk the dogs, play cornhole or horseshoes, etc.  Trash is well maintained, with enough dumpsters for the amount of campers they could hold at capacity.  They also have firewood for sale on your way in, so you don't have to chase a campground host or a little golf cart - you can buy what you need on your way back.  This is a very family friendly campground about an hour and a half north of Boston and about the same from the Whites.  A great base-camp for amazing days on Lake Winnipesauke!!

    Hancock Campground

    Year-round campground with riverfront tent sites & standard sites

    I haven't stayed here, but I checked it out on Columbus Day weekend because it's one of the few campgrounds open year-round (plowed, unlike Lafayette Place, which is walk-in) in the White Mountains. Most of the reviews talk about the walk-in tent sites, but there's more to this campground that is located along the Kancamagus Highway just before the Lincoln Woods Visitors' Center.

    If you're a tent camper and don't mind carrying your gear downhill to a site, drive straight ahead to a parking lot. A few of the sites (3 & 4) are accessible from the far end of the parking lot, but for most of them you'll head down the steps in the middle with sites in two levels branching out on each side. Sites are large, but close together and although you're in the woods, there's not much to separate you from your neighbors. Even sites 10-20 are directly on the water.

    Sites 22-55 are suitable for RVs and tents. Those on the back side of the loop are close enough that you can hear the Pemi River running below. A few of the sites are pull-through. There are no hook-ups, but water available via spigots and flush toilets are available - except in winter. I'd recommend sites on the back side of the loop to provide some more distance from traffic noise. I chatted briefly with a host who remarked that sites on the western end of the loop have some cell phone coverage, unlike the rest of the campground.

    If you stay here, you're only a few miles from Lincoln where you can pick up any necessary supplies. This end of the Kanc your nearest hiking options are Lincoln Woods and Greeley Pond for family friendly trails, or Lincoln Woods to head into the Pemi wilderness, including peaks in the Pemi loop and Owl's Head. The Hancocks are via a trail at the hairpin on the Kanc. Franconia Notch and its many hiking trails and the multi-use trail are a short drive away.

    Bring cash or a check to pay your camping fee in the iron ranger. Fees cover the first vehicle; a second vehicle is an additional $5.

    Chocorua KOA

    Small, quiet family campground

    The Chocorua KOA is a great campground with super friendly staff, a variety of sites and lots of activities and things to do for everyone in the family.

    We stayed with two other families on pull-through full hook-up sites 43, 45, and 47. Although we were on the main road, we really enjoyed these sites. They were wooded and in a central location close to the playgrounds, pavilion, beach and nature trails. Site 45 was pretty narrow but the other two sites had a bit more space so we mostly used 43 and 47 to hang out. We especially loved that the pull-through road behind our sites was not a main access road so we had a nice long stretch of road that was just for us. We played games and the kids road bikes without having to worry about cars driving through.

    There are also a lot of really nice tent sites along the water, cabins, teepees, lodges and great areas for groups to camp. They are fairly strict with quiet hours so it is a very quiet campground at night.

    The facilities are nice and clean. The pavilion and fire pit area are a nice place to gather with games and a mining station to enjoy. There are two playgrounds for little and big kids. The bathrooms are quite dated but clean. The pool is freezing cold so the kids didn’t swim much. The beach area is small and not deep enough to swim but the kids enjoyed playing in the sand and water. There are a lot of options for boat rentals- paddle boats, kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, and row boats. There is a beautiful board walk that leads through the marsh to a system of short nature trails. We really enjoyed walking the trails though some need a lot of work due to fallen trees and overgrowth. There were also a lot of free activities for the kids like crafts, wagon rides and games with a full schedule of events. You really never have to leave this campground!

    This is also an incredibly dog-friendly campground with a fun dog park, a special swimming pond just for dogs and doggie day care available. This is one of the most pet loving campgrounds we’ve ever camped in and our pup loved it!!

    We had a great trip and will definitely be back!

    Barnes Field Campground

    Large group sites in summer; first come sites for all in winter

    There aren't many campgrounds open in the winter in NH, but this campground just before the entrance to the larger Dolly Copp campground in Gorham is one of them. During the summer, it offers 11 sites for groups only with reservations required. 

    There's a blend of wooded/open sites located in a loop. So often it seems that group sites are wide open fields with minimal separation. Barnes Field provides clearly defined sites with picnic tables and fire pits. Water is supplied by a hand pump and toilets are vault. There are showers ($) nearby in Dolly Copp. 

    Rates in summer start at $40 for 10 campers and increase by $10 increments to $70 for 40. In winter you pay a per vehicle fee of $15.

    There were youth groups and adult AMC groups at the campground. 

    Site 8 is more secluded and up a small hill. Site 7 is in inside of the loop, wooded, and wet around the perimeter.

    It's located in close proximity to hiking trails in the northern Presidentials and Carter range. Wildcat ski is 6 miles south. There are numerous trails around for cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, and ATVs.

    Twin Mountain Campground

    Quiet riverside campground

    I've stayed here 3 times now, once for just a quick overnight and twice for full weekends. It tends to be quiet due to restrictions against playing music outside your tent/trailer. There are also few, if any, seasonal campers - I think those are probably in the field around the pool as the site numbers do not appear on the campground map. It is now open year round, but I don't know what the facilities are like in the off-season.

    Many of the sites offer water and electric, but a number of them do not. A few offer sewer. The campground is located along the river, but not all sites have easy access to the river, making it something pretty to look at, but harder to get to. Sites are generally level with easy access. You do need to call to make reservations, which in this day and age drives me crazy. If you have more than one vehicle, the second one needs to park in a separate lot and there is a daily fee.

    The pool and large playground offer entertainment options for the kids; there's also a volleyball net. There is cell phone coverage at the campground (Verizon), but if you are going very far afield, consider downloading necessary maps and information before you go. When you get into the Notches, cell phone coverage is poor to absent.

    The camp store has souvenirs, clothing, and a variety of food and camp supplies. There's a restaurant on site with picnic tables out front or you can get it to go and take it to your campsite. If you need something else, Fosters' Crossroads is just around the corner and offers an even greater variety as well as gas. Yayas Market and Deli is another option a short distance north on Rt 3. 

    Activities abound in the area, offering everything from hiking, biking, wildlife watching, or a cog railway trip up Mt Washington. Franconia Notch is 15 minutes south, where you can do a family friendly hike to Artists Bluff or Lonesome Lake or something more rigorous and classic (if well equipped) to Franconia or Kinsman Ridges. The Sugarloafs and hikes to Zealand Hut are also family friendly and just up the road. Pondicherry Wildlife Refuge offers access to the Presidential Rail Trail and wildlife watching. Catch a sunset or a brilliant night sky from the scenic view pull-off on 115 (near Sunset Paradise Rd), just a 10 minute drive from the campground.

    Newfound RV Park

    Nice place to explore the lakes region

    We enjoyed our stay at Newfound RV Park thanks to their laundry facilities, rec room, and quirky owner. It was a great place to explore Newfound lake from, as well as the Mill Fudge Factory. Our site was full hookup and a pull through site. We used a Passport America discount here.

    Spacious Skies French Pond

    Comes with a surprise French Pond

    The campground has a gravel area at the sites where the fire ring and picnic tables are. Where we parked our trailer was some gravel sand and dirt. We were at the end of a lane, backing in was fine we are small, 21 feet including tongue, we fit fine. Great site across from a beach, on French Pond I’m guessing is at least 25 acres. Most of the sights are long term. Camp was pretty much full, even then it was quiet. Restroom closed to covid, some campgrounds kept them open and just cleaned more. Well no complaint here we’re self contained. Some areas could use some tidying up. Still I would gladly stay here again.


Guide to Center Sandwich

RV parks around Center Sandwich, New Hampshire sit within the Lakes Region, just 20 miles from Lake Winnipesaukee at an elevation of approximately 650 feet. Winter camping options are limited with several facilities closing between November and May, though Meredith Woods maintains year-round operations. Most campgrounds feature gravel or dirt sites rather than paved pads.

What to do

Hiking nearby: At Cannon Mountain RV Park, campers can access multiple trail options. "The short but rewarding hike up Artists Bluff, giving you a view into Franconia Notch; continue along the ridge and you'll enjoy the western views from Bald Mountain," notes one visitor who explored the area.

Winter activities: Cannon Mountain RV Park accommodates cold-weather enthusiasts. "Perfect for ski bums. Access to xcs, downhill, and snow machine trails," mentions a camper who visited during winter months.

Lake recreation: Danforth Bay Camping & RV Resort offers water activities during summer months. "I have wonderful memories of kayaking (their courses are great and included), watching the stars in the field near the BMX bike area, tie dye, campfires, the list just goes on and on," shares a frequent visitor.

What campers like

Small, private settings: Cannon Mountain RV Park offers intimacy with limited sites. "This is one of our favorite trips every year! The campground is small, only 7 sites, but located at the base of Cannon mountain nestled next to Echo lake it's simply breathtaking!" reports a return visitor.

Clean facilities: Meredith Woods Four Season Camping maintains high standards even in challenging weather. "Squeaky clean - and that's not always easy especially in the winter when everyone drags snow, slush and mud into the bathroom. Thank you for sticking to such high standards," writes a winter camper.

Spacious wooded sites: The camping areas provide room between neighbors. "Danforth Bay has been the staple campground for my family through the years. Its rare to find a campground with so many spacious wooded sites overlooking the water," explains a long-time visitor.

What you should know

Security policies: Some campgrounds enforce rules strictly. At Danforth Bay, "The campground has a rule that fires have to be out at 11:30. We are quiet and no one is around us because we all rent the sites around us. The security people have been extremely aggressive to us," reports one group camper.

Site limitations: At Turtle Kraal RV Park, "This campground is huge - there is a lower loop and an upper loop with the bathhouse and pool right in the center. Kids can ride their bikes around both loops, walk the dogs, play cornhole or horseshoes, etc."

Off-season operations: During colder months, facilities change. At Cannon Mountain RV Park, "The rates drop after Columbus Day and the water is turned off," warns a reviewer who stayed late in the season.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Silver Lake Park Campground offers recreational options for children. "This is a very clean, quiet, gated campground, with easy beach access for the kids (and launching space for pontoon or bass boats). There is a playground, rentable kayaks and canoes, a basketball goal, frisbee golf, corn hole, horseshoes, yard darts etc."

Swimming areas: Several rv parks near Center Sandwich have pool facilities. "Great little campground in Meredith NH... They have a hot tube and indoor pool. They also have a nice game room for them kids or grown ups that struggle to leave technology behind," mentions a visitor to Meredith Woods.

Rental options: For families without equipment, some campgrounds provide alternatives. "Danforth Bay has 2 big beautiful pools and a smaller one with a kids slide. Large campsites and well maintained. Camp store has everything you need. The golf cart rentals are great and in great condition."

Tips from RVers

Access considerations: Some Center Sandwich area RV parks have challenging approaches. At Cannon Mountain RV Park, "The sites are narrow, a little bigger than a parking space, especially because of the trees in between the sites. We stayed at site four. Site seven looks to be the best because no trees on one side let's you have some room."

Long-term options: Riverbrook RV & Camping Resort accommodates extended stays. "My wife and I spent the month of July at Riverbrook and we couldn't have been happier. The owners are super friendly and accommodating; the park is clean, comfortable, and convenient to adventures in the White Mountains; and the wifi worked great."

Winter hookups: For cold-weather camping in RVs, Meredith Woods provides services year-round. "We stayed for a winter weekend, they have a few transient sites that can accommodate RV's year round. There are a ton of full time seasonal RV's as many people use this campground as a base for snow machining."
