Timberland Campground

Stayed for a quick overnight. The electric and water sites we stayed at was just dirt, no grass anywhere. The full hookups looked better from what I saw. They were very gracious on a late check out for us so we could go explore before leaving which was great.

This was our first time camping in NH, and I'm so glad we visited the best campground. The new owners are so kind, as well as their two golden retrievers!!! The campground facilities were clean, the neighbors were great, the pool area was also very clean and the water was so warm. Highly recommend this place to anyone! We will be back for sure.

Great camp site ! The pool is small and heated, very comfortable ! River on backside of campsite is amazing ! Bathrooms were super clean !

Notes - bring cash for hot showers , $0.50 for almost 8 mins (cold water free)

Not allowed to bring your own wood for fire, they have enough onsite and it’s priced fairly.

First time staying here! Nice campground. Close to the main road but not too noisy. There are train tracks on the property but no trains went thru this weekend. Beautiful walking path right by the river!

We stopped here quickly on a road trip... good thing we didn’t need to stay. Campground is sandwiched between a railroad track and highway. Don’t expect a nice quiet nights sleep! Train came trough twice through the night.

Bathrooms weren’t really clean but usable. Had a pool to cool off in. I think it’s used by hikers for quick pop up sites to sleep since most were gone before 7am. The trailer campers seem to enjoy themselves. To each their own I guess!

I recently stayed at the Timberland campground, and while the campground itself is amazing, there are several MAJOR issues that makes me suggest looking into near by campgrounds such as the National Park Service campgrounds in the area(of which there are several amazing ones) 

1) Power- The power at this place is clearly overloaded. On the weekend I was getting warnings that the voltage was in the 95v range(120v) The National Electric Code states that the lowest permissible voltage is 114 to national code at the furthest part of the line. Below 100v you can start to see damage to electronics and motors as this is a brownout.

2)No tent stakes- The campground didnt burry their water and power lines appropriately, so rather than fix it. They just ban the use of tent stakes. The owners also run the place so one night that a storm came through they even went around telling people they couldnt stake down their awnings or canopies.

3. Train Tracks- There are active tracks literally on the other side of the line of sites(lower sites are even worse as they arent at least elevated) and there are freight trains that come through regularly including all hours of the nights. The tracks are close enough that you can actually feel the rumble as it passes on top of the whistle, engine noise and wheel squealing. 

4. Water Damage to Rental Unit- When I stayed I had family staying so I rented one of their rental trailers. The bedroom wall was leaking at the headboard when it rained and there was even a hole in the wall from the water damage and warping. When I let the owner know this they said they didnt think it was leaking anymore. 

5. Guest policies- This was really just an insult on top of everything else mentioned. I had rented an electric site AND one of their travel trailers for a mini-family reunion. We had a total of 5 adults across the 2 units and they still charged a guest fee for the stay because ONLY 2 adults per site are allowed. I have yet to come across any other campground with such a restrictive and enforce policy. 

Its quite sad, like I said, its a charming campground, but between the being woken up jarringly at 3am by a train whistle or worrying that the constant brownout condition is going to damage your equipment, I just cant recommend staying here.

The campground is alright. The tenting sites are small and have very little privacy. The campground is next to a highways and train tracks. The only upside is they do have showers that are 50 cents for 8 minutes. There was a river walk, I did not walk down. There is also a store in the front.

We went back to the campsite over Memorial Day weekend and had the same great experience as before!! They had a potluck dinner on Sunday, so nice to sit and talk with other campers as well as the owners!

We were here back in September of 2018 and have a trip already planned for the end of May 2019! We fell in love with the family feel, nice campsites, location and the owners are just fantastic! Love the picnic they had for Labor Day!

This is a cute little campground that is great for people who are coming up to go ATVing or hike the mountains. It is a little far from civilization ( it took about 30 minutes to get everywhere). There were a few activities while we were there. They had a cute little store, a nice pool, free range chickens and a great playground. The only downside was the mosquitos. They were so bad all week!

If you love the White Mountains but Dolly Copp is a little too rustic, Timberland has amenities to make your camping trip a bit more manageable.

This campground has a great store and a heated swimming pool up front, coin-op showers, as well as a pinball/game room and laundry. There is also a great playground and a beautiful nature trail along the Androscoggin River.

The campground tends to have a mix of tents and RV folks. Some of the sites are a bit small/close together, so look elsewhere if you are going for seclusion. But if you like to have all the amenities, this is a great campground in a good location, close to supplies, groceries and restaurants in Gorham, bike and boat rentals are available in town as well. Just outside the presidential range of the White Mountains, you can find many many hiking trails ranging in difficulty from a 1-hour easy walk to a waterfall to the summit of the big one, Mt. Washington.
