Convenient spot
This campground has a lot of amenities like showers and washer/dryers (all coin operated). It’s right off the road, which makes it a convenient jumping off point for various trails and Mount Washington.
The sites themselves are hit or miss. Some of the sites have a view of the road, which isn’t too pleasant.
The bathroom and dumpster is not centrally located, so you have to go all the way to the entrance of the campground.
Not sure if this is normally how it is but it seems the river is quite high/flooded onto one of the sites. Now that we live in the age of climate change flash flooding, I would be watching the weather closely before staying here again.
What’s tiresome about the reservation system is that on the one hand, if you’re driving from far away you know you’re getting the site you want. But on the other, the nicest sites were reserved the entire time we were there and they were total no-shows. NH isn’t different from other state parks in this respect, but it’s definitely annoying.
