Dispersed Camping

Austin Brook

Austin Brook, near Warren Falls, Vermont, is a charming spot for those seeking a rustic camping experience. This area offers a handful of sites right by the river, perfect for enjoying the soothing sounds of nature and gathering around a fire ring after a day of adventure.

Visitors have noted the beautiful brookside locations, with easy access to the streams that run through the area. It's a great place to unwind, but keep in mind that facilities are minimal—there are no toilets or trash services, so be prepared to pack out what you bring in. As one camper mentioned, “Keep it clean!”

The surrounding Green Mountain National Forest provides ample opportunities for hiking and exploring, with trails nearby leading to scenic views and the famous Warren Falls swimming hole. Just be aware that the access road can be a bit tricky, especially for larger vehicles, so plan accordingly.

While some campers have raised concerns about local behavior and littering, many appreciate the natural beauty and tranquility this spot offers. If you're looking for a peaceful escape into the wilderness, Austin Brook is worth considering for your next camping trip.

Nice sites

Smaller area roughly 1-6 sites. When driving in on the right there’s a culdesac type set up of sites. Pretty sure these sites all have river access. Road is short dead ends with a decent amount of turn around space.

Wrong Coordinates

This is a beautiful little pull off the road right on the river with tables & fire rings. For correct coordinates look at Fire Road 25. This area is right next to FireRoad 25 rd. We did not camp here we camped on FR25.

Great Primative Location

I didn't get the chance to camp here, it was full when I drove through looking for a place. So I came back later in the weekend for pictures. Great location, easy access, on a nice brook. Fire ring only, no facilities and minimal parking.
