Best RV Parks & Resorts near Henniker, NH

CAMPER SUMMARY PRESENTED BYFord

Sandy Beach Campground and Tuxbury Pond RV Campground provide full-hookup options for recreational vehicles near Henniker. Sandy Beach has water, electric, and sewer connections available from May through October, while Tuxbury Pond accommodates big rigs with similar amenities from late April to mid-October. Silver Lakes Park Campground offers thirty-amp electrical service with water and sewer hookups on gravel pads. Many sites throughout these parks feature level pull-through RV pads with picnic tables and fire rings. Pine Acres Resort stands out with fifty-amp hookups for larger motorhomes. "Site was clean, easy to get in/out with 21' travel trailer, though some seasonal campers take up significant space," noted one visitor.

Advance reservations are strongly recommended during New Hampshire's peak seasons, particularly during fall foliage viewing periods. Most parks in the region maintain dump stations, though Hidden Valley RV Park lacks this amenity according to visitor reports. Cell service varies significantly between campgrounds, with Turtle Kraal RV Park offering strong AT&T and Verizon coverage. Several parks close completely between late October and May, with no winter accommodations available. Access roads to certain campgrounds involve navigation challenges—one reviewer mentioned: "You have to go down a small hill and bottom out the front and then drag the backend out of the dirt. This campground is not big rig friendly." Pet policies differ between facilities, with most allowing dogs with certain restrictions.

    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!!

    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.

    Forest Lake Campgrounds

    Weekend stay, lots of seasonal camping

    Site was clean, easy to get in/out with 21' travel trailer. Swimming at the beach wasn't inviting. Lots of seasonal campers with years of lawn ornaments. There was a sense of the campground being clicky place. Pet friendly. Mixed emotions....

    Caton Place Campground

    No friendly service

    This past holiday weekend we went to the campground. Upon arrival the owner made me go with them to the site and leave the motorhome blocking the entrance into the campground. The roads aren’t wide enough to take a motorhome into. The pull through site is not level and is barely long enough to fit my 43’ rig (with my motorcycle lift). The owner was very unfriendly. Driving out of the site was just as bad. You have to go down a small hill and bottom out the front and then drag the backend out of the dirt. This campground is not big rig friendly.

    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.

    Swanzey Lake Camping Area

    Site 12 review (2 adults 1 child)

    Site 12 a little tight for 21 ft travel trailer. Large tree canopy. Lots if seasonal sites make up a majority of sites. No WiFi, AT&T is 2 bars without booster. Spectrum cable available at the site, but TV service is very poor. Nice beach, but need to cross public road to get there - short walk. Relaxing evenings along side fire pit.

    Forest Lake Campgrounds

    Lakefront camground with some nice short-term sites

    I stayed here in mid-July, a week after the holiday weekend. Although the majority of the sites are season, there are about 25 sites available for short-term campers, including a number that are within site of the water(although most of the waterfront in the area is occupied by boat slips, there is a walkway to the beach). Four sites are near the rec hall. Near the entrance are 10 sites(half of them pull-through) that are a combination of grass and shade, near the ballfield. My site was in this area. The sites were spacious and level. Sites T 1-10 tended to have sloped access and sometimes had trees to maneuver around, but I saw large trailers in some of these sites; most had tents. All sites offer water/electric. A dump station is available near the entrance. I had 3 bars of Verizon service.

    As a seasonal campground, there are a lot of weekends scheduled throughout the weekend. While I was there, there were organized cribbage& horseshoe tournaments, cornhole, and bingo as well as a potato roast. Most of the seasonal campers have golf carts, so you’ll see them buzzing around the campground and providing seats for tournament viewers. The playground with swings, slides, and a see saw saw a lot of kids action throughout the weekend, as did the tennis court and basketball court. The ballfield was the only area I didn’t see in use.

    The beach is sandy with a roped off swim area and raft; a boat ramp gives you a spot to launch. Fishing from the boat ramp area yielded bass and bluegill. Millfoil is a problem in the lake, particularly the southern end, and boats needs to be cleaned to prevent spread.

    I wasn’t given a map when I checked in, so I looked it up online to locate the bathroom. Initially I only saw the one nearer the beach, which was a bit of a hike from my campsite. It was also very tight with limited space between the sink vanity and the toilet stalls. There was 1 shower in this area. Closer inspection of the map revealed a second, larger bathroom, that had more space, toilets, and showers. That said, they need to do a better job lifting the mats and cleaning the shower drains so they’ll drain. I was grateful for shower shoes! To turn on the shower, you have to pull on a rope or bar hanging from just above the showerhead. As long as you are pulling the rope, the water is on. I’m not sure a child could reach it. It’s annoying, but it certainly enforces a ship-shower approach to water conservation. If you have a self-contained unit, I'd rate the campground a 4.

    You’ll need to call to make a reservation and plan to pay by cash or check; no credit cards allowed. My site was assigned upon arrival; I was able to call just a few days earlier to obtain a site, but the weather was bad leading into the weekend, so that may have affected it.

    Seasonal site setups vary from spotless and landscaped to ones that have seen a better day, but as a short-term camper, you really only need to pass by them en route to the rest rooms or the beach. 

    There are a couple of restaurants nearby if you want take-out: Rustic Table and A1 Pizza are just around the corner. Pisgah State Park is nearby with miles of hiking trails and ponds.


Guide to Henniker

Campers exploring RV sites near Henniker, New Hampshire can find diverse options across Merrimack County and neighboring regions. Located in the Contoocook River Valley at 500 feet elevation, Henniker experiences warm summers with temperatures averaging 80°F during peak camping months. Winter camping is limited as most facilities close between late October and May due to temperatures that regularly drop below freezing.

What to do

Waterfall hiking: 3 miles from Jamaica State Park Campground, hikers can access Hamilton Falls via the West River Trail. "There is a plethora of things to do in the park itself and in the local community. We hiked the west river trail (which leads right out of the campground) to Hamilton falls which is a gravel closed road that follows the west river upstream 2 miles to Hamilton falls trail which then leads up hill for another mile to the falls," explains one visitor to Jamaica State Park Campground.

Swimming in Newfound Lake: 10-minute drive from Newfound RV Park offers relief during summer months. "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," shares a camper who stayed at Newfound RV Park.

Golfing: 18-hole course available at Hidden Valley RV Park. "The main attraction of this campground is the golf course of 9 or 18 holes. There is a pro shop, golf cart rentals, etc," notes a visitor about their experience.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Regularly maintained restrooms are a highlight at multiple campgrounds. "The bathhouse and pool were both very clean, and for as many RV's that were there - that was amazing," writes one visitor about Turtle Kraal RV Park.

Friendly staff: Personal assistance frequently mentioned by visitors. "We had interactions with both Drew & Lauri Simonsen (brother & Sister) during our 2 night stay. Our generator was down and we needed to pick up our friend at the airport. Lauri loaned us her minivan to go to the airport and Drew loaned us some tools to work on the RV," recounts a camper at Hidden Valley RV and Golf Park.

Reliable Wi-Fi and cell coverage: Essential for remote workers staying at campgrounds. "I work remotely, so having internet access is mandatory, we were able to use our AT&T hotspot with decent service. That worked well enough for my needs, so I didn't test the onsite WiFi," reports a camper who stayed at Newfound RV Park in October.

What you should know

Seasonal closures: Most Henniker-area campgrounds operate between May and October. "The campground is very friendly... a lot of seasonal folks. We had a nice corner site which fit our 34' rig just fine," notes a visitor to Sandy Beach Campground.

Reservation requirements: Peak foliage season creates high demand across all campgrounds. "Jamaica State Park. The park rangers were tremendous in ensuring we had a great visit. They worked with us to get the right site," explains a camper about reservation assistance.

Pest considerations: Seasonal insects can impact camping experiences. "Our biggest issue though was the over-abundance of gypsy moth worms. Crawling over everything and the concern of bringing them home with us to infest our trees," reports a Sandy Beach Campground visitor.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Multiple age-appropriate options available for children. "Clean well kept level areas! Staff was friendly! Great hiking or biking along the West River!" reports a visitor to Jamaica State Park Campground.

Swimming options: Beach areas vary in quality between campgrounds. "The sandy beach is nice but the swimming area is quite weedy," notes one camper about Sandy Beach Campground.

Activities for rainy days: Indoor recreation spaces provide alternatives to outdoor plans. "There is a playground, rentable kayaks and canoes, a basketball goal, frisbee golf, corn hole, horseshoes, yard darts etc," describes a visitor to Silver Lakes Park Campground.

Tips from RVers

Big rig access limitations: Some roads and sites present challenges for larger vehicles. "Unfortunately, I can't give high marks to our campsite. The water and electric were between our site and the next on one side and sewer between our site and the one on the other side. This made it difficult to place our trailer on the slanted site and reach all services," reports a Hidden Valley RV and Golf Park visitor.

Full hookup availability: Many campgrounds near Henniker offer comprehensive services. "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," explains a visitor to Riverbrook RV & Camping Resort.

Site leveling considerations: Topography varies significantly between campgrounds. "The site had very long grass, bare rock and mud. It was not a site we would have wanted to stay on any longer than the one night," notes an RVer who stayed at Hidden Valley.

Campground security: Gated access provides peace of mind at select locations. "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," reports a camper.
