Green Mountain National Forest encompasses Greendale Campground, a small US Forest Service facility that operates seasonally from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Located along Greendale Brook in Weston, Vermont, this drive-in campground features 11 wooded sites accessible via rough roads that can challenge some vehicles.
Each campsite includes a picnic table, fire ring with grill, and parking spur designed to accommodate both tents and small RVs. The campground provides vault toilets and allows pets throughout the facility. Most sites sit close enough to Greendale Brook that campers can hear the water flowing, with several positioned directly beside the creek. "Small babbling brook close to sites," notes Jennifer C. about the water feature that runs through the area.
The campground serves as a trailhead for the Greendale Loop, a 4-mile hike through mixed hardwood and conifer forests with stream access along portions of the route. Reviews consistently mention low occupancy rates and minimal traffic, with some visitors reporting they encountered only two vehicles during entire stays. Insect activity peaks during summer months, particularly mosquitoes, black flies, and deer flies.
Winter access requires skis or snowshoes from a parking area approximately one mile away, as the facility closes for snow season. For those exploring broader camping options in the region, campgrounds near Green Mountain National Forest provide additional choices for extended stays.
