Best Campgrounds near Raymond, NH

729 Reviews

Camping near Raymond, New Hampshire ranges from state parks to private campgrounds with different amenities. Pawtuckaway State Park Campground has both wooded and waterfront sites where you can easily launch kayaks and canoes. Bear Brook State Park Campground is close by with good hiking trails and a playground that kids like. Both state parks fill up fast in summer, so you'll want to reserve ahead of time. Sandy Pines Campground tends to be a bit more developed with clean bathrooms, playgrounds and swimming pools. Watch out for wildlife in all these areas - you'll need to store food properly. Weekends get crowded with both locals and out-of-towners taking up spots. Many campsites in this area don't have electricity, which is something to keep in mind when packing. If you can camp during fall, you'll see amazing color in the trees. Raymond's camping works well for both tent and RV setups depending on which campground you choose.
