GuideIt’s a nice relatively small campground in a pretty setting. Sites are fairly close, and there’s definitely some longer tempura residents, but it’s well kept and seems like a nice place to stay.
GuideGood size campground with three loops. 2 shower / restroom facilities. Many of the sites are simply grass. There are a few gravel ones. The staff has no problem with driving on the or parking on grass. All sites have a firepit. Wood can be obtained locally. There is no store at the camp. There is only one dump station. There is a boat launch with limited trailer parking although when we stayed (Aug 2026) the water was only 18 in to 2 ft deep at docks. Heavily choked with vegetation. Shower facilities were clean enough but could use more attention, heavy cobwebs at lights, corners and edges of shower pretty dark with mold. Plenty of fresh water spigots throughout the camp. Camp is on the banks of lake Champlain, although only a couple sites have a lake view. Ruins of two pre-revolutionary war forts are within walking distance and offer a great introduction to life in the early 18th century. Fort Ticonderoga is a 30 min drive and will take most of the day to tour. Well worth the trip. Only 3 min drive to Vermont. I would stay again.
TravelerIt was everything we were looking for, right on the river, quiet and clean, the section we stayed in was all tent camping so we weren’t sandwiched in between a bunch of RVs blocking the view. There was no lights, generators or loud music. Alcohol wasn’t permitted so that really cuts down on a lot of unnecessary nonsense. Pets are permitted and our dog loved it. It was very pleasant and relaxing. Can’t wait to go back.
ScoutPeaceful, quiet, relaxing space. Super friendly staff.
TravelerWe just got home from our week at Fransted Family Campground and am already looking forward to returning next year. The location of the campground was perfect - especially for exploring the Franconia Notch region. There is a nice mix of RV and tent sites. The tent sites are well shaded and felt spaced out compared to other places I have camped. We had a site on the stream which was nice. Fell asleep each night listening to the water. I only used one of the bathhouses, but it was clean. Showers were clean (separate rooms). Customer service was off the charts. So friendly and helpful. There was a number we could call to get firewood if the store was closed and they were also so nice about it too. There is free WiFi, but it really only works up near the front office. But there is a beautiful pavilion with nice furniture to relax on if you needed to go and use WiFi (or just relax for that matter). We didn’t have kids with us, but there are a lot of lawn games, a playground, courts and field available. Overall, very quiet but Al family friendly. I will definitely be back.
ScoutThis dirt road joins with Trudue rd to form a loop. There are pull in/back in sites with plenty of privacy. No cell service. Only a couple or of sites offer sun so use of solar can be difficult. Starlink does not work.
Sites are roomy, private and close to streams. There is hiker traffic that adds to the charm. A lovely place to camp. There
ScoutSpent a night here. Sites are grass for most part and level. Plenty of room. We did the water and electric site.
ScoutTrashed, just a big party spot now. Definitely not the place if you want a peaceful camping trip.
TravelerPrivate, large site. This was the first site in the road. We have a low clearance car and it was a bit bumpy. This site was amazing, clean and easy pull in pull out.

Paddle remote campsites: Access secluded lean-to sites at Kettle Pond State Park Campground by canoe or kayak for increased privacy. "We rented canoes and paddles across Kettle Pond to one of the shelter sites in early September and it was incredible. Each site has access to a fire pit, lean-to, and outhouse but no immediate running water," reports camper Kelsey M.
Hike historical trails: Explore abandoned settlements on trails accessible from campsites. "Little River has lots of old foundations hidden on the trails that are fun to discover," notes Rita M. The history-focused trails range from easy 1-mile loops to more challenging 5+ mile routes through former homesteads.
Fish freshwater ponds: Cast for native species in the motor-free waters. "The fish were bitting all day long for catch and release fishing for our scouts which was perfect because some of the them kids never fished before," explains Chris H. about his Cub Scout Pack's experience at Kettle Pond. Most ponds maintain catch-and-release policies for sustainability.
Privacy between sites: Ricker Pond State Park Campground offers well-spaced camping locations. "There is a ton of space between sites -- we could barely see our neighbors or hear them," notes Shari G. Sites are designed with natural vegetation buffers to maintain separation.
Dark night skies: Minimal light pollution provides exceptional stargazing opportunities. "Dog friendly and quiet campground with goregous views of the milky way galaxy," explains Kelli M. about Big Deer State Park Campground. Many sites position fire rings away from neighboring camps to preserve dark sky viewing.
Paddling without motors: Motor restrictions on several ponds create peaceful water experiences. "The pond is serene and a great place to swim, paddle, explore, and fish," shares Hannah H. about Ricker Pond. "Unlike Stillwater this is on its own pond so not as much traffic," adds Tessa H. about the same location.
Limited shower facilities: Pay showers available at select parks only. "Showers, which we did not use, were $0.25 for four minutes," notes Jennifer L. about Lazy Lions Campground. Most state parks require quarters for shower operation.
Remote water sources: Many campgrounds require traveling for drinking water. "There is not ANY running water. The running water is accessed by going to New Discovery Campground, which is about 3 miles down the road," explains Rita M. about Kettle Pond State Park. Campers should bring containers to transport water.
Variable site conditions: Campsite terrain differs significantly within individual campgrounds. "Some sites are so sloped I don't even know how a car would camp there. Some sites are out in the open grass where you just find a spot within the site that works for you," warns Laura M. about New Discovery State Park Campground.
Rail trail access: Several campgrounds connect to converted railroad paths for safe cycling. "We took a half day bike trip on it one day to go to the town of Marshfield to visit Rainbow Sweets," shares Rita M. about accessing the Cross Vermont Trail from Kettle Pond. The mostly flat trail surfaces accommodate riders of all abilities.
Book waterfront sites early: Lakeside sites fill months in advance, especially during summer. "The tent only loop is so private and perfect for kids biking and swimming. Nice pavilion and the pond was wonderful for canoes and kayaks," notes Rita M. about Little River State Park Campground.
Pack for variable weather: Temperature swings of 30+ degrees can occur within 24 hours. "Low 80s during the day, and 60s at night, without any rain. A few of the mornings, the kids even swam before breakfast because the water was warm enough that it was warmer than the cool morning air temperature," explains a Kettle Pond camper.
Limited hookup options: Most RV-friendly campgrounds near Websterville offer basic services only. "Gravel roads and relatively level gravel sites. The FHUs were in good order. Slightly low water pressure," notes John T. about Limehurst Lake.
Bridge access restrictions: Some campgrounds have narrow entry points challenging for larger rigs. "You need to go over a bridge in order to get to the campground which is ridiculously narrow and there are terrible potholes. Our 42 foot fifth wheel barely made it in," warns Cyn D. about Onion River Campground.
Water fill adaptations: Non-standard water connections may require equipment modifications. "The spigots for the water are not threaded. We tried our water bandit, with messy wet results. Luckily, we found we could unscrew the head of the hose at the dump station and had no problem filling our tank with potable water," explains Laura M. about New Discovery State Park.
