Best Glamping near Colebrook, NH

Lake Francis State Park Campground and Coleman State Park Campground have introduced upscale glamping accommodations for travelers seeking wilderness experiences with modern comforts in northern New Hampshire. The glamping options at these parks include canvas safari tents and luxury yurts furnished with comfortable queen-size beds, quality linens, and private decks overlooking either Lake Francis or Little Diamond Pond. Both locations provide electricity for charging devices, solar-powered lighting, and climate control systems to ensure comfort in all seasons. The yurts at Coleman State Park feature wooden floors, rustic furnishings, and panoramic windows offering stunning views of the surrounding wilderness. One guest shared, "We stayed in one of the lakefront glamping tents and the view in the morning was quite satisfying, especially watching the sunrise over the water."

Situated in remote northern New Hampshire near the Canadian border, these glamping sites serve as ideal basebases for outdoor adventures. Guests can explore hiking trails within both parks, kayak on Lake Francis (rentals available seasonally), or fish for trout in Little Diamond Pond. Wildlife viewing opportunities abound with eagles, loons, and moose frequently spotted. Ladd Pond Cabins and Campground has recently added geodesic domes equipped with kitchenettes and private fire rings. According to a visitor, "This place is really a hidden gem. The glamping accommodations are beautiful, and you're only about 11 minutes to downtown Colebrook for supplies or dining." Winter glamping is available at select locations, with heated yurts providing a cozy base for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing adventures through the snow-covered landscape.

    Aziscoos Valley Camping Area

    Nice folks and super reasonable price

    This campground is just north of Errol, NH along the Magalloway River. The sites and facilities are well maintained and quite clean. The owners and staff are quite nice and really do a great job managing the campground. There are nice shaded sites along the river as well as a number of sites in a wide open field. Be sure to ask about the amount of shade (or lack there of) when you make your reservation. While being in the field in a climate controlled RV may not be a big deal, being in the sun from sunrise to sunset can be rough as a tent camper.

    Sites have picnic tables, fire rings and are nicely spaced from one another. There is a bath house that is clean and a nice amenity, especially for the reasonable rate of $15/night for tent campers (almost unheard of at many private campgrounds). 

    You can put your boat in upstream of the campground and paddle to the area or you can drive. We paddled from just upstream and continued on the following day. There are several grassy spots where you can slide your boat onto shore.

    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.

    Moose Brook State Park Campground

    Perfect campground for access to the White Mountains

    We have stayed at Moose Brook State Park a number of times over the years to gain easy access to the hiking trails in the White Mountains. The campground is well run, manned by easy going Rangers, and is hassle free. The sites are large, with a choice of wooded, partially wooded, or open. Sites are level, with the fire ring on the correct side for people with campers. The price is good and on a number of occasions we have seen moose or bear in the area.

    Prouty Beach Campground

    RV campground w some tent spots

    This is an RV campground w a handful of tent spots. We stayed at T4, a site w electric right on the lake. I was initially very excited to be so close to the lake but my enthusiasm waned a little after a swim- the lake bottom was murky sticky mud which is fine it’s just not my favorite. My fiancé went swimming and got a leech or leech-like thing on his foot so swimming for him was pretty much over. Being at the lake meant a lot of noise from others including the campers that use the facility, I mean like actual camp, like groups of kids and counselors. I don’t mind kids but others might. It was the usual kid squealing and stuff. When we arrived a counselor was using our site and picnic table, spilling cheese-it’s all over the place which made us popular with the many many seagulls. She left when she saw us pulling in but left the mess behind so the birds were an issue. They continued to be an issue the whole 3 days we were there- every day we’d come back to our tent to find our stuff scattered a bit- not a huge problem but a present nuisance nonetheless. We tried to keep our things contained but still they tried to carry some stuff away. On the lake shore was a lot of seagull feathers and goose presence, poop, it’s not my favorite way to swim. The bathrooms were ok, pretty basic, very much reminiscent of when you get sent to camp as a child, bare bones. The stalls in the bathroom are uncomfortably short so when you stand up your head is poking out over the door, you can make eye contact w everyone else in the room which is just weird! We went two days without paper towels being restocked to dry your hands, I finally had to call the office. (Everyone in the office was super awesomely nice, always!) Sunday morning there is a group that makes breakfast in the pavilion I guess for donations which they use to beautify the campground. This is a lovely gesture. However the pavilion is right next to the tent sites and the group started setting up about 6:30 AM, which included honking their car horn, and talking very loudly with complete disregard for quiet hours or the full row of tent sleepers. My fiancé finally approached them and told them they must be unaware of how much their voices are carrying but that everyone was still sleeping. They didn’t apologize or say anything and honestly I don’t think they cared or lowered their voices at all. Our site was comfortable, water and electric worked fine, clean fire ring, we didn’t use it. The group next to us talked late past quiet hours (I didn’t not approach the campground about it we just dealt w it), and used a drone which was extremely uncomfortable, loud, and disruptive. I did call the office about that the next day and asked if there was a drone policy, she said there was not but that she would address it if they used it again, they ended up leaving so it wasn’t a problem but there should definitely be a policy about it. All in all, people were nice but the lake location meant a LOT of additional noise from other users and there did not seem to be any reminders about quiet time. Don’t come here if you’re looking for solitude but do come here if you’re looking for a great location in northern Vermont close to a cute town and amenities. Just set your mindset that it’s not a secluded or quiet spot but a spot w stuff to do and lots of people to interact w. We did not use the boat rentals or tennis courts or other stuff.

    Lake Francis State Park Campground

    Quiet, remote, serene and clean.

    Quiet, remote, serene and clean. I love this campground. It is a New Hampshire state campground so the prices are low and the place is very well-kept. They even have a sink with hot running water where you can wash your dishes at the main house. There is a boat launch to put in a small boat, kayak or canoe. It’s just overall a really nice place to go in the wilderness where it is quiet and no cell phone service at all for miles.

    Twin Mountain Campground

    Awesome family spot.

    Stayed the last weekend in June and I was able to book the site 3 days prior. I was shocked there was still availability. Self check-in, no alcohol allowed and quiet hours start at 10:00 p.m. and fires out by 11:00 p.m. Who I believe to be the owners working in the store at the entrance were super friendly and helpful. My site wasn't the greatest (#32) as it seemed to be one of the few that was sort of out in the open and within view of numerous other sites. Not much seclusion but almost every other site seem to be more secluded. The riverfront sights looked absolutely beautiful and some had better/ easier access to the water then others. We had our travel trailer and it was easy to get it in and out and the dump station was conveniently located on the way out as well as the dumpster for trash. There are quite a few tent sites and our site was right near the clean bathroom and showers. We didn't eat there but there's also a pizza place at the entrance too. Everything is within walking distance.

    Will go back again for sure but would look for a river front site next time!

    Zealand Campground

    Large grassy riverside sites but the traffic will keep you awake

    This is a roadside campground with several large, grassy sites that wasn’t my first choice, but it was late at night and my other option hadn’t panned out. It is located right beside US302 and you’ll hear vehicles and see their lights driving by all night. Zealand Rd, which takes you to the 2 Sugarloaf campgrounds as well as the Zealand Trailhead, cross the Ammonoosuc River here and there is a picnic area on the other side of Zealand. 

    When I pulled up at night, there were fireflies lighting up the grass and woods. There are water faucets and vault toilets. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. Some of the sites are more secluded, particularly 4-10. They’re all first-come, first-served, so you can choose your site upon arrival. Be prepared to carry your tent and other gear a short distance from your car for several of the sites. I was surprised to see how the sites with wooded parking areas opened up to the grassy expanse near the river. Access to the river isn’t great. It’s not a place where you’ll be swimming. 

    Stay here because you couldn’t get a site at one of the Sugarloafs and you want to hike in on the Zealand Trail or you want to head south into Crawford Notch explore there. The Cog Railway station isn’t far away. If you need any last minute items, stop by Foster’s Crossroads in Twin Mountain. For a quick hike with nice views, drive up Zealand Rd to the Sugarloaf trailhead. It will take you to a saddle between two peaks on the 52-with-a-view list.

    Littleton / Franconia Notch KOA Holiday

    Top Notch

    We just spent 5 days at this wonderful campground. They have paid attention to all of the finer details. Beautiful landscaping, well leveled sites, very clean and neat. The staff is wonderful. My only disappointment with the camp is that there are only a few sites with sewer hookup. However, the dumping station is conveniently located, so if you have a small tank, daily trips are not a problem. There is plenty to do in the area - Littleton is a beautiful little town. The old houses in are incredible. New Hampshire is not a dog friendly state, but a short Drive into Vermont gets you access to many fine restaurants where you can bring your dog. Be sure to visit Dog Mountain in Vermont- a truly touching memorial to departed pets.

    Moose Brook State Park Campground

    Small and Family friendly and has that 40s vibe that's very charming.

    We were welcomed by a lovely little house used as the Ranger station. A fire kept it warm and cozy. The ranger was very pleasant. We bought some fire wood for $6 a bundle… there was a private seller down the road selling it for $4.

    Easy check-in. We reserved the last available site and it was near the bathroom which I wasn't that excited about but it was actually quite nice.

    Nice bathrooms. Nice Shower building. Good wash-sinks.

    Our site appeared to be the only one with 2 fire pits. One of them was a nice cooking/barrel type of set-up that all the other sites had. The second was an older stone and cement pit with a back wall that was perfect for sitting in front of on a chilly October evening.


Guide to Colebrook

Camping options near Colebrook, New Hampshire range from primitive tent sites to upscale outdoor accommodations in New Hampshire's northernmost region. Located in Coos County at approximately 1,050 feet elevation, this area experiences cooler temperatures than southern parts of the state, with summer highs typically in the 70s. Most campgrounds open from Memorial Day through early October, with some sites remaining accessible for winter camping near ATV and snowmobile trails.

What to do

Fishing for brook trout: Little Diamond Pond at Coleman State Park Campground offers dedicated fishing areas. "Great pond for fly fishing, eagle watching, etc. ATV traffic can be a little annoying, but otherwise quiet. Not close to shopping," notes Josh F.

River paddling: Explore the Androscoggin River from Mollidgewock State Park Campground. "The river was super calm so we were able to take our paddle board out and explore the waters," writes Katy Z. Another visitor mentioned, "They rent kayaks/canoes on the property which was fun (saw a bald eagle)."

Hiking at East Inlet: Located 30 minutes east of Lake Francis, this trail system offers less crowded options. "We didn't spend any time on Lake Francis, but I highly recommend paddling at East Inlet," suggests Jillian from a Lake Francis review.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Lake Francis State Park Campground receives consistent praise for maintenance. "There is a dishwashing station, laundry facilities, showers, and bathrooms, all very clean. Perfect for fishing, hiking, and kayaking," reports Carolyn M. Another camper added, "The amenities here are great and extremely clean. We are on a 2 week road trip so it is very nice to do some laundry!!"

Remote setting without cell service: Many campers value the disconnected environment. "It's just overall a really nice place to go in the wilderness where it is quiet and no cell phone service at all for miles," writes Lisa P. about Lake Francis. For those needing connectivity, some sites have limited service: "There IS cell service, at least with Verizon."

Wildlife viewing: Maidstone State Park offers excellent opportunities to spot loons. "The lake is clear and beautiful. The loons are amazing," writes Emma B. Another camper notes, "The loons are all night singing as well."

What you should know

Tent site selection: At Mollidgewock State Park, location matters. "I would definitely recommend a campsite further in (avoid sites #1-5 ish that are directly next to the road - car lights will shine in your tent at night as cars drive in)," advises Ellie L.

Limited supplies nearby: Aziscoos Valley Camping Area has few nearby services. "Make sure you are well provisioned before arriving, there are no supplies nearby," warns Kevin W. Similarly, Maidstone State Park is "remote and it's about 45 min. to the nearest town. There is no cell service, even with a booster."

Variable shower conditions: Shower facilities range from free to coin-operated. At Lake Francis, Jim O. warns, "I must say that I've never had a shower that felt like I was being power washed ;-) Great water pressure!" At other parks, remember quarters: "The laundry and showers are coin-op, which I was unaware of prior to my arrival. Make sure to bring quarters!"

Tips for camping with families

Alternatives to traditional glamping: For families seeking glamping close to Colebrook, New Hampshire without premium prices, consider Ladd Pond Cabins And Campground. "They have a beautiful pond in the back they have showers or a shower and toilet for those that need it a common room for those that want to cook food play games watch movies," notes Jonathan M.

Lean-to options: Shelters provide protection during inclement weather. "We stayed in site 21 which is a nice wooden lean to. We decided to stay in the site for two reasons. First of all, it is one of the closest sites to Little Diamond Pond and you can see the pond from the site. Secondly, it was forecasted to rain over half the time we were there," explains Sarah C. about Coleman State Park.

Trivia opportunities: Lake Francis offers family engagement activities. "My daughter had gotten more candy out of them then she know what to do with answering the daily trivia question right," shares Jessica C. These daily questions provide educational entertainment for children during longer stays.

Tips from RVers

Site selection for larger rigs: At Percy Lodge and Campground, space is limited but manageable. "Plenty of room for outside activities," notes Jeff J., though it's not considered big-rig friendly.

Consider river sites for cooling: At Aziscoos Valley, "Our site was in an open grassy area that was visible from the road with great views of the river. Though the site was open, the camp sites are spaced far enough apart that we still felt that we were camping privately," reports Ernie Y.

Limited hookups: Most campgrounds offer electric but not full hookups. "There are RV compatible sites but there are no hookups and all the camping areas are grass. There is a small 'dumping station' within the campground," explains Sarah C. about Coleman State Park.
