"Large sites River front Well worth the drive"
GuideThis was among the mist beautiful campsites I have ever stayed at. Large sites with space between neighbors. We had enough privacy to open the shade on our big picture window on our tiny teardrop and fall asleep looking at the stars. Download an area map before you arrive, we lost cell service on the way here and couldn’t rely on navigation. Friday and Saturday nights were fully booked. On Sunday, people could drive in and pick a spot. You need cash if you pay at the entrance. Lots of license plates from NH, MA, ME. On Sugarloaf trail, we encountered lots of first-timers and lots of repeat customers.
ScoutI stayed here with my boyfriend on a weekend in June 2024. We came on a Friday night and there were no available sites so we slept elsewhere, got up early on Saturday and claimed an available site, pitched a tent and went about the day.
As we were leaving after having pitched our tent, we saw a guy walking the road who instantly I had a bad intuitive feeling about and my boyfriend told me not to worry about it.
After hiking for the day we came back to the site to make food and a fire, etc. After cozying up my boyfriend told me he was going to walk to the stream near by to get some water to put the fire out before bed later…
NO less than 2 minutes after my boyfriend disappeared into the woods, who do you think just so happen to come creeping up to the site while I was left alone? Ah yes, gross homeless guy that I had a bad feeling about that same morning. He started approaching me telling me there was a bear near by and to watch out as if I wasn’t aware there was wild life in the area. I told him to go away and he proceeded to walk to the opposite direction of which he came.
Most people would probably brush this off but I’m certain this man was stalking. For creepy men to have nothing better to do than stalk and bother innocent people just trying to enjoy life is infuriating. Of course this area was beautiful but sadly can’t say I’ll be coming back here and I definitely wouldn’t recommend it for solo female adventurers… Not trying to scare. Just wanted to share my honest experience here to spread awareness.
LegendDanforth 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. They seem to always have events & family friendly activities to keep kids entertained. I always appreceiate the onsite kayak rentals for exploring the river that runs along the campground. Mary’s mountain is a nice hike accessible from the RV/Boat storage area.
GuideVery friendly. Good size lots. A lot of seasonal campers there give this place a neighborhood atmosphere. 10 to 15 minutes to stores and other needs. 30 minutes to coast. Portsmouth harbor cruise and many small coastal pubs and restaurants. Here is the “BUT”. Wi-Fi is barely usable after 8am. And phone signal is spotty at best. Had to walk around to find signal for phone call.
GuideUsed this spot for two day stop-over to visit family nearby. Friendly and accommodating. Terrain is a little hilly and tight for large vehicles. Sights are comfortable size. We were there mid-week before school let out. Very quiet.
TravelerWe stayed on site #5 because it was flat, sunny, grassy and had a little brook. Had some passing by traffic but each site is far apart from each other.
TravelerNew shower and bathroom building was clean. Campsites were well spaced.
GuideMy family of 4 tent camped for 1 night as we were making our way from Maine back to Indiana as part of our summer ‘24 New England camping adventure road trip. Roads through the White Mountain National Forest were easy to navigate. The campground roads were paved.
Upon entering campground we saw many “beware of bear signs”. The campground ranger station confirmed that black bear are prominent and will venture across picnic tables and sites, so be certain to store food & toiletries safely per rules!
Our campground loop was “HAYE” and very quiet and clean. We tent camped at site 130. It was near restroom. The restroom was well lit and very clean. Lots of room inside to change clothes and freshen up at sink. We were sure to bring a flashlight to check surroundings to ensure no bear surprises at night! There were shower houses at other campground loops. Half of the showers didn’t work upon inserting coins, so that wasn’t ideal, but they were clean facilities, so my advice would be to check the shower is functioning before stripping down!
We didn’t get to explore the forest trails as this was more of a 1-night stop, but I will definitely come back. I was hoping to see moose! There are signs to watch for moose throughout the forest as they are definitely around.
We booked tickets to the Mount Washington Cog Train months in advance, so we got to explore the area & views via steam train - highly recommend!!!
TravelerWe were informed that this was a free (by donation) campground. We stayed one night, intending for two, and in the early afternoon we were greeted by the park manager.
He informed us that the park was not open, but because of the misunderstanding we were okay to stay the night. We decided to be polite and just pack up and find somewhere else.
For anyone curious they open 5/9/2025 for reservations and ACTUAL camping.
