"Our first time in Vermont and we picked an awesome campground. This place has a great layout with lots of great sites to choose from.
There are several sites right on the river!
Clean bath houses."
"Site 16 had a path to the river and was slightly tucked away. Sites 13 and 14 were cool spots too, I’d imagine in the summer you may have less privacy because it’s near the swimming area."
"A LOT of bugs due to dense wooded surroundings. The bugs seems to be unbothered by the bug spray as well."
"The entrance to the road had a sign that said “road closed ahead”. We chanced it and was able to find a really nice open spot right before the road closure. Was a great spot!"
"There are 3 nice and short trails, 2 with a great view and the other that is quite steep down to a swimming hole."
"We had site 30, which looked to be one of the best sites available (and the lean-tos next to site 30 also looked great). Most sites on this side of the loop were private, forested, and spacious."
TravelerHad a great Memorial Day weekend here despite the chilly weather. Amenities include campers only beach, great trails (including accessible), nature center, staff were present and circulated often.
GuideSecond time we stayed there for overnight while traveling. Well kept. Adequate space. Friendly hosts. Terrain is uneven. Hit and miss on how flat or leave sights are.
GuideI love the spacious campsites. It’s very woodsy between sites, so it seems very private. Bathrooms and Showers are clean. Over 20 miles in hiking trails, this is one of the nicest parks, I’ve visited.
GuideThis trailhead provides access to bicycle-friendly nature trails. I explored both directions on my bike, riding approximately half a mile down each side. The terrain eventually transitions into a low-lying, swampy area, likely due to recent rainfall over the past week.
About 500 feet down the right-hand trail, there is a smaller path branching off to the left. This leads to a previously used campsite, approximately 200 feet from the main trail. The site includes a stone fire ring, indicating prior use.
Given that camping is permitted anywhere in the woods as long as it’s at least 150 feet off the trail, the surrounding area offers an abundance of potential camping spots.
ScoutWe (Tim & KIm) are spending our first season here, so far the experience has been wonderful. The owner is very nice and accommodating, responsive and helpful. We chose a site right by the river and were able to adjust it to our needs for our dogs and grandchildren. The neighbors have been very helpful and friendly. We did use the playground with our grandkids and it was clean and lots to do. Excited for the actual season to begin and to be able to use all the amenities. So far its been a great experience.
ScoutCamping on the Battenkill is truly a gem in the Green Mountains. Excellent location and quiet campground with Battenkill swimming and world-class trout fishing. It features, wooded, sunny and on the river sites. W/E/S is available at some sites and W/E at others(nearest the river) as well as tent sites. All these sites are very roomy/private, with pull-thrus available and back-ins. There are two newly renovated,immaculate bathrooms. A lovely well-maintained grassy play area and great dog area for play/exercising. The camp office/store has also been all redone and has a great mix of items/supplies. There are washers/dryers on the grounds as well as firewood and ice available to purchase. We are very happy seasonal campers. It is under new ownership and the new manager is just spectacular,Janet will go out of her way to be extra helpful and accommodating and friendly as well as hands on. Our site has S/W/E with cable and wifi, and is nicely shaded-25b. We are here May 1-Oct12, and sad to leave every year and anxious to return every spring! This is truly a lovely and pretty park. We camped at Camping on the Battenkill in a Fifth Wheel.
GuideDecent campground right on the Delaware river, definitely family oriented in the warmer months, lots of families with young children, so can be very loud. Great walking access to the river where you can launch your kayak/go tubbing or just go for a swim. Would return.
