Shaded sites, an ice cream stand, and a full lineup of recreational amenities set the tone at Kampfires, a privately operated campground in Dummerston, Vermont, running from mid-April through mid-October. Sites are gravel-based and reportedly level, with full hookups available for RVs up to 50 feet. The campground sits close enough to Brattleboro North KOA that campers comparing options in the region have a nearby reference point, and the Inn At Kampfires is essentially on the same grounds for those who prefer a roof overhead.
Amenities here go well beyond the basics. Reviewers consistently mention mini golf, a pool, a store, a dog park, shuffleboard, basketball, and horseshoe pits. An amphitheater hosts concerts and other events through the summer, and the campground has also served as a venue for food festivals with live music. Wildlife is present, though. One camper discovered fresh bear scat near a water hookup, a reminder that the surrounding Vermont landscape is active regardless of season.
Cleanliness comes up repeatedly across reviews. "The cleanest and nicest shower you will find in a campground," notes Mike B. The laundry room, bathrooms with hot water, and general site upkeep all draw positive mention. Noise can be a factor depending on site placement, as at least one reviewer flagged a neighbor with loud music running most of the day. Requesting a site toward the back of the property is a practical way to reduce that risk when booking.
