1 campground with availability this weekend
Cabin accommodations near Huntington include rustic options at Little River State Park and more modern facilities at Smugglers Notch State Park. Little River cabins provide basic shelter with electricity but no running water, while Smugglers Notch offers cabins with more amenities including heating for cooler months. Most cabins include picnic tables, fire rings, and access to nearby bathroom facilities with showers. Sleeping arrangements typically feature bunk beds or platform beds that accommodate 4-6 people. "The cabins look nice but a little close together. They don't pick up the phone right away so call a few times to get ahold of someone," notes one visitor about cabin proximity at certain locations.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Camels Hump State Park features more primitive cabin options for those seeking a true wilderness experience, while Lake Placid/Whiteface Mountain KOA Holiday provides furnished cabin rentals with additional amenities. Reservations for cabin sites fill quickly, especially for waterfront locations at parks like Button Bay State Park. Most state park cabins allow pets with appropriate documentation, though private campgrounds may have stricter policies. A review mentioned, "I've been visiting Ricker Pond for nearly 20 years. My favorite cabin site is set back from the water, is private, and also fills fast for the season."
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Basic cabins typically have electricity but limited furnishings beyond beds and tables. Kitchen facilities vary widely—some cabins offer only outdoor fire rings with cooking grates while others provide small refrigerators and microwaves. Shelburne Camping Area and North Beach Campground maintain on-site stores selling firewood, ice, and basic provisions. Visitors staying at more remote cabin locations should bring all necessary supplies, as the nearest grocery stores may be 15-30 minutes away by car. Drinking water is available at central spigots throughout most campgrounds, though not directly at cabin sites.
"The site was freshly raked when we got there, and the leftover wood was stacked next to the fire pit. Picnic table easily seats 8. Lots of bathrooms around the park, each with showers."
"Little River State Park is located just outside of Waterbury Vermont so it’s an ideal location for jumping off on other adventures!"
from $19 - $28 / night
"Spaced out under trees. Sites 1 to 16 are close to each other.
Sites 113 to 119 are bad. Very close to each other. No redeeming qualities."
"This was their closing weekend and lots of spaces were available. Stayed in tent circle loop and it was almost empty. Great access to lake shore and bike path."
from $37 - $100 / night
"We didn't advance book, so we were in one of the last available spots. Site 2 is a flat, gravel back in, 30 amp, full hookup."
"Very nice place, easy to book reasonable price because of winter season they close the bathroom, but there is a jiffy John waste, dump station have water and laundry, if needed "
"The Park, located along scenic Rte108, has about 20 tent sites and 14 lean-to’s well dispersed throughout the grounds."
"Close to tons of beautiful hikes. As for the campground. It was quiet, comfortable, and kid, as well as pet friendly. Would definitely camp here again."
from $20 / night
"Great tent site, site 1 can have 3 platform and fire pit"
"This is a short and sweet hike to one of the higher points in Vermont. It is a beautiful scenic (somewhat strenuous) hike to the summit. The views are pretty epic though."
from $10 / night
"The first is where you'll find the lean-tos and the dog trail/beach. This area is super quiet, offers a bit of shade, and plenty of privacy."
"We selected it because it was nearby for our second outing with our new (used) R-Pod camper. Turns out it's a wonderful park."
"Really shady and the campsites are private enough. They do really enforce those quiet hours. Also the WiFi only really works near the office and is very spotty so I wouldn’t rely on it."
"We stayed at a leanto, which have the better views of the lake! These sites are the same price, so it is worth it. The campground has a trail to the shore line, which is nice!"
from $6 - $28 / night
"The front sections of the campground are where most of the transient RVs parked(and have the views of the lake) whereas the back section of the campground has a mix of transient RV sites and seasonal park"
"Visit this campground in the fall and experience quintessential Vermont in all its glory. The campground is nice. The people are friendly."
from $55 - $105 / night
"Sites were a medium distance apart but still spacious enough to not be close to neighbors."
"3 night stay, tent camping on a site with water and electric. The site we had was quite large, I had booked an end site (#73) hoping it would be big!"
"It’s a beautiful and quiet campground with limited spots that you have to reserve before going (they don’t do walk in’s). The woman in the office is so sweet and helpful."
"Been coming here for a few years now and it’s my favorite place to go in Vermont so far."
from $45 - $70 / night
GuideCar camped on Sunday of Columbus Day weekend in October. This was their closing weekend and lots of spaces were available. Stayed in tent circle loop and it was almost empty. Great access to lake shore and bike path. Walked back toward marina and town in the evening and ran in the morning the other direction going out to Rock Point. Didn’t use the shower facilities. The bathroom near our loop only had sinks and toilets and was fine.
GuideNice campground near Killington, VT. Water and dump station. Not for big rigs we have a 21 ft TT. Things were tight but doable. One of the few Vermont state campgrounds that is still open. Most close from second Monday in October until Memorial Day.
GuideStayed here to be able to do the bike trail. Was warned to keep the bikes locked up. The sites are very close together. The picnic tables and fire pits(tire rims) are moveable. Our picnic table was in rough shape and broken.
The bathrooms have keypads on them but on our last morning there was a guy in the bathroom with his pants on the floor sitting in a shower chair for a couple of hours. The bathrooms also have spiders all throughout them. The water pressure was high and the showers were hot.
ScoutVery nice campground with great modern facilities. Many of the RV lots have nice views of Lake Champlain.
ScoutPeaceful, quiet, relaxing space. Super friendly staff.
ScoutThis was our first trip away from home. The campgrounds are clean with beautiful views.
GuideOriginally we reserved mountain view. It waa getting ready to rain...alot for 1 - 1/2 days. The mountain views didn't have gravel, but hard dirt. However beautiful shady areas (we drove thru the another day to check it out) looked nice, but it's hard to imagine on the side of hills to level 🤷🏼♀️
We really like the riverside view..it's across the street & about 300' down the street.
But is a great location for places to go & things to see. A few Miles from Whiteface mtn & about 15 min to downtown Lake Placid.
ScoutLove it here, great for swimming, kayaking and camping with your family
TravelerJust stayed at Drapers Acres for the Iron Man in Lake Placid. We stayed in a cabin and daughter and her husband stayed in their rig in an RV site. They clearly state that they are not a camping resort, but a base camp for the area adventures. Rest rooms were clean and had plenty of hot water. Staff was friendly and welcoming! Great playground for the kids to play on and plenty of privacy. Cabin was basic - had fan, heat, mini-fridge and microwave. If visiting the area again, I would not hesitate to stay there again! The RV site was large with plenty of space for their 40 foot rig and jeep. Use AT&T towers and had the ability to use phone as a hotspot.
Cabin accommodations in the Huntington area range from remote wilderness options to family-friendly resorts, with availability primarily from May through October. Most Vermont state park cabins operate seasonally, closing after mid-October due to harsh winter conditions. Cabin sites vary in accessibility, with some requiring short walks from parking areas while others offer drive-up convenience.
Explore abandoned settlements: Little River State Park features historic hiking trails leading to old foundations from an 1800s mountain community. "We visited here with our 5 kiddos for 2 nights late July 2016. The hiking trails are really good--actually pretty steep. There are lots of old foundations hidden on the trails that are fun to discover," notes one visitor from Little River State Park Campground.
Kayak reservoir waterways: Access remote areas by water at Little River State Park's reservoir. "Great campground for hanging out and a place to bring your boat. The reservoir is a fun place to explore via kayak and canoe as well as by motorboat! We tend to hang at the site more than the beaches as the beaches are very small and full of children," shares a camper.
Winter backcountry access: Smugglers Notch State Park Campground provides off-season cabin access for winter enthusiasts. "Stayed at a lean-to site here in March of 2019. Free of charge during off season, you just have to call a couple weeks ahead to reserve and make sure you park in the allotted area. Hike/snowshoe in to your site as the gate is closed and the area is not plowed," explains one winter visitor.
Waterfront cabin options: Button Bay State Park offers lakeside cabin access. "Wonderful state park, the waterfront sites are fantastic, they are wide so smaller units can be parked parallel to the lake. Bathrooms are clean, facilities are great. Easy access to the lake. Book early for the best sites," advises a repeat visitor at Button Bay State Park Campground.
Secluded forest settings: Cabins at Camel's Hump State Park provide true wilderness immersion. "This is a short and sweet hike to one of the higher points in Vermont. The designated primitive camping area is about 1.5 miles into the hike. If I recall it had about 10-12 sites. The area had a host who was there 24/7 and a shared area for eating and food storage," reports a backpacker from Camel's Hump State Park.
Urban-adjacent locations: North Beach Campground cabins offer proximity to Burlington's amenities. "Burlington is my favorite city by far, and this campground is right on the beach! You get the best of both worlds at this location. Biking into Burlington takes 5-10 minutes and you're also right on the beach of Lake Champlain," explains a North Beach camper.
Reservation timing: Cabin sites at popular parks book months in advance. "The cabins at Button Bay fill quickly, especially waterfront locations. Book early for the best sites," notes a regular visitor.
Amenity variations: Cabin facilities range from primitive to full-service across different parks. "They don't have all the usual amenities, it's more of a primitive set up," explains a visitor about Smugglers Notch cabins, while Apple Island Resort offers "full hook-ups at our site that was plenty long enough."
Wildlife considerations: Apple Island Resort cabins provide more protection from local wildlife. "There is a short trail on the property which leads to a large open grassy area with a great view of the lake and area where we threw a ball for our dog," shares a visitor, while Camel's Hump requires "a shared area for eating and food storage (I guess Bears are a problem there)."
Child-friendly cabin options: Shelburne Camping Area offers family conveniences. "The grounds were landscaped well, and they were changing flower beds over to mums for fall during our stay. The bathhouse was clean. The ladies side had a fresh flower arrangement everyday," reports a family from Shelburne Camping Area.
Swimming access: Grand Isle State Park provides cabin options with beach proximity. "What a lovely state park! We had a huge campsite that was comfortable for 3 tents and 6 adults. The park has swimming pool with life guard. Nice park for cycling the Lake Champlain Byway," notes a recent visitor.
Educational opportunities: Little River offers family learning experiences. "The ranger programming was exceptional, as are the views and the nearby areas for hiking and backpacking," mentions a visitor who appreciated the educational aspects of cabin camping near Huntington.
Winter weather considerations: Mountain cabins require appropriate preparation. "Silent and starry nights, just make sure you have the gear/experience and a warm sleeping bag," advises a winter visitor to Smugglers Notch cabins.
Off-season availability: Several parks offer reduced rates for cabins during shoulder seasons. "In October, you get a second night free!" at Shelburne Camping Area, according to a visitor who appreciated the value.
Proximity to amenities: North Beach provides urban convenience for cabin stays. "Bring your bikes! You're tucked away in the woods on gorgeous Lake Champlain and can bike into Burlington for meals and city street strolls," recommends a North Beach camper, highlighting the advantage of cabin camping with quick access to services.
