Best Tent Camping near South Burlington, VT

Tent camped here several times in past few summers. Good location for major trailheads and near by lake placid keene. Tent sites are not very big. Although weconfortavly fit with one vehicle. Free hot showers.

Nice family campground nestled in between route 15 and the lamoille River. Great car accessible tent sites right on the water and plenty of amenities that the kids will love. We'll stocked camp store and two pools. It can get a bit noisy due to the proximity to the highway, but it's still a good option for car camping in this part of Vermont.

Smaller tent sites. One centrally located bathroom. Nice mix of sun and shade. Convenient to down town and waterfront. Beach is beautiful and conveniently close to sites.

Cramped sites, lots of year round RV and trailers. Had a tent site, close to others. Not bad, people friendly and staff was very nice.

A great place. Peaceful and quiet, camp sites are well maintained, great fire pits. Plenty of different tent sites available, a nice walk down to the lake. Enjoy.

A lovely family camp ground with rv and tent sites, all near the bathrooms, amenities galore, and a great camp store. Visited in early October and was not disappointed. A wonderful stay.

Tent camping at its best. Quiet and nestled in the trees. Not much is nearby in the way of attractions but there is amazing hiking trails all throughout this area. If you are new to hiking in real mountains like the ones near this campground (I’m from Jersey so...) be sure to have a personal beacon since your cell phone won’t work on the hikes. The campground does get 1 bar.

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! The campground staff was friendly, and worked hard to keep the bathrooms and showers clean. The camp ground is within minutes of Ausable Chasm, which offers great hiking trails and rafting/tubing. We had a great time on this camping trip!

very tiny and remote.

5-6 tent sites and a small box privy.

But great when you hike the HaBaSa trail (haystack, basin, saddleback).

Since it's right after Haystack and not too far from Basin.

No need to walk more...it's on the way.

It's a very high campsite...So it's windy and colder at night.

I will start by saying I have not stayed here.  I looked into and toured this campground looking for a place for my extended family to camp at while in the area. While it does have a few tent sites, and a pond it is mainly a RV camping site with long term RV rentals.  It was not the kind of place I wanted My nephews camping at.

Great campground with secluded sites most with woods behind each site, especially the tent area. The RV and tent camping is well separated and there are different kinds of RV space available as well. The showers are a bit gross, but free. 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. We had water/electric for a trailer at $35 a night in perfect location between Keene Valley and Lake Placid. Sites were clean and the fire pits were beautiful! We camped in site 45 and were pleasantly left alone.

Upon arrival, the front desk clerk was very nice and helpful. We found our way to the tent sites, nestled in the very back corner which for us was exactly what we like. Sites were a medium distance apart but still spacious enough to not be close to neighbors. Showers and restrooms were nearby and it being a weekday, there really wasn’t much traffic of campers or hikers. It was cozy and tucked into the woods with town only being a few miles away!

This is clearly a residential RV seasonal place. Some of the RVs here look as though they've had houses added onto them over the years. Seeing as it caters to RVs over anything else, other services/amenities were lack luster. Showers were a bit dirty and there were only 4 tent sites in the campground. It worked for a stop over on a thru paddle of the Northern Forest Canoe Trail, but as a regular tent camper, I would not recommend this spot if you can avoid it.

There is a lovely country store a quarter of a mile away!

I couldn’t find a specific option for this campground, so I used a nearby one. This is Lake Willoughby near Lakewood. There are tons of primitive camping spots here. Lakewood has an available convenience store with a heap of RV and tent sites. There are also multiple parking lots in range where people camp out of their cars and absolutely no one will bother you. The view here is something you can’t capture in photos. also- There’s a nude beach for those of you who are interested!
