Best RV Parks & Resorts near Cavendish, VT

Several RV parks near Cavendish provide full-service camping accommodations. Dorset RV Park offers level gravel sites with full hookups including 50-amp service, operating from May through October with spacious pull-through sites for larger motorhomes. Tree Farm Campground in Springfield features both water and electric hookups on well-maintained gravel pads that accommodate rigs up to 45 feet long. Mount Ascutney State Park Campground provides more basic amenities with no hookups but does offer a sanitary dump station and can handle big rigs on its drive-in sites. "The sites are large and fit my 24 ft RV plus 30 ft trailer. Most well spaced. Clean new bathrooms and good clean dump," noted one camper about Quechee State Park.

Navigating to some RV parks in the region requires careful attention to road conditions. Several campgrounds in the Green Mountains feature tight turns that may challenge larger motorhomes, particularly in the Killington area. Most parks maintain gravel interior roads that can become rutted during spring thaw or after heavy rain. Cell service varies considerably throughout the area, with stronger signals near Manchester and Springfield but potential dead zones in mountain valleys. Many parks close by mid-October before winter weather arrives. Pet policies generally permit leashed dogs with designated exercise areas available at Dorset RV Park and Quechee-Pine Valley KOA. Reservations are strongly recommended during peak fall foliage season from late September through mid-October.

    Abel Mountain Campground

    Great Mid Week Adventure

    My husband and I are seniors and spent 3 nights, Tuesday to Friday in June on site 51. Abel Mtn. Campground was easy enough to find. We have a 21' travel trailer and took advantage of the full hookups that most of the sites provide, including our first time using cable TV. As everyone else who reviews this place said, the owners are the first pleasure you find there. There's a heated pool, strong WiFi at your site, tons of clean river sites, immaculate rest rooms with an accessible ramp and lots of showers. For activities, you can hike on trails across the foot bridge and fish in many places along the river. They recycle everything possible and even provide composting of plant based waste. We have rarely found a returnable bottles and cans container so finding that and even composting is a notch well above the competition. Being the middle of June, there were no kids around but the photos and the two playgrounds tell us kids must love the place. Sites are back-in and very level on gravel pads. We highly recommend the place. Oh and a word to the wise, you will hear a train go by somewhere and the whistle will wake you up but no worries, it's all part of the ambiance.

    Lake Bomoseen KOA

    Fun, crowded, and running out of steam

    This is a solid, family-friendly campground. It has the standard amenities plus some fun extras (arcade, mini-golf, boat rentals, etc.). However, all amenities are in worn shape. The playground is approaching dangerous, for instance (metal pipe sticking out of sandbox?) and the arcade was largely broken (ate a lot of quarters). Granted we were there for the last weekend of the camping season, but these appear to be longer term issues.

    The camp store was great. Service was helpful and friendly.

    Odd $10 CASH deposit for gate key that no one asked for. No ATM on site to get cash…

    The sites are spacious enough, but are very close to each other. Zero buffer between neighboring sites means encroaching slide outs.

    Cell services on ATT and TMobile were nonexistent. Campground WiFi is a joke (less than 1mbps).

    Beautiful views of lake down by the dock, but campsites have no view.

    Easy access to several great hikes and local restaurants.

    Newfound RV Park

    Nice place to explore the lakes region

    We enjoyed our stay at Newfound RV Park thanks to their laundry facilities, rec room, and quirky owner. It was a great place to explore Newfound lake from, as well as the Mill Fudge Factory. Our site was full hookup and a pull through site. We used a Passport America discount here.

    Spacious Skies French Pond

    Comes with a surprise French Pond

    The campground has a gravel area at the sites where the fire ring and picnic tables are. Where we parked our trailer was some gravel sand and dirt. We were at the end of a lane, backing in was fine we are small, 21 feet including tongue, we fit fine. Great site across from a beach, on French Pond I’m guessing is at least 25 acres. Most of the sights are long term. Camp was pretty much full, even then it was quiet. Restroom closed to covid, some campgrounds kept them open and just cleaned more. Well no complaint here we’re self contained. Some areas could use some tidying up. Still I would gladly stay here again.

    Dorset RV Park

    Decent campground in a good location

    We thought this park was o.k.– nothing special but nothing bad but we really wanted to see the area since we were told the town of Dorset was so pretty. When we checked in, there was a sign that personnel were working in the park and there was a phone number for us to call. They responded right away and met us at the office and showed us where our site was. 

    The campground was clean and tidy with nice tall trees. The roads and campsites are gravel and a little tight to get around because of all the trees but we were able to manage in our 45’ motorhome. There were a scattering of amenities like a rec room with games, shuffleboard, playground, volleyball, horseshoes, laundry, and showers. There are community activities like bonfires, bingo, pot luck dinners, and complementary donuts& coffee every Sunday morning. 

    Our site was level but some definitely were not. We got twenty or so television channels with the cable hookup. The hookups were all well-placed and we didn’t have any issues with the electric and the wifi at our site worked well. We had a picnic table and fire pit. The sites next to us were not occupied which was nice because otherwise it would have felt a little tight. We did notice a bit of road noise when sitting outside. There are some really nice tent sites set away from the RV sites that sit under large trees and have nice space. The only drawback is they are farther away from the bathrooms. 

    Loved the area, the Green Mountains are beautiful so there is plenty of sightseeing to do. Dorset is a cute tiny town that is beautiful in the fall. The nearby town of Manchester is home to Orvis and there is an interesting fly fishing museum next door. Overall, the park was fine for us and we would stay again if we were in the area. We paid ($47/night) for our full hookup, 50-amp site.

    Forest Lake Campgrounds

    Weekend stay, lots of seasonal camping

    Site was clean, easy to get in/out with 21' travel trailer. Swimming at the beach wasn't inviting. Lots of seasonal campers with years of lawn ornaments. There was a sense of the campground being clicky place. Pet friendly. Mixed emotions....

    Lake Bomoseen KOA

    Many Features But Road Noise

    The Campground has a nice staff, a very well appointed general store, laundry, arcade, marina with boat rentals, mini theater, and indoor mini put. Most of the sites are wooded and nice. Somehow we managed to get the one pull through spot that was at the end and harder to get in. I was surprised how much road noise we heard inside of our trailer. The internet speed fluxuates and was slow to unusable our last day. I could not get the cable TV working. All in all it is a nice Campground and most of it (the back in spaces) look nice and wooded. I would stay here again despite the small inconveniences but I would definately pick a different camp site. Again, you will hear some road noise.
