The campground was great. It was by a hiking path so that was the only downside, but that wasn’t at all a big deal. We were pretty close to the river so it was nice to hear the water when life was a bit calmer at night. The tent pad allowed for us to set up two tents, one 3-person, and one 2-person tent.
Outside of the campground, Tettegouche offers some great hikes and views. We only wish Castle Danger Brewery was a bit closer.
If you camp at Tettegouche, I’m sure you’ll have a great time. The sites booked up pretty fast. I did book this campground in mid-January to stay during mid-May so be sure to book as quickly as you can.
Gooseberry was very quiet on the camping front but maybe that’s due to the high temp being 35°. Though it was cold, we enjoyed the campsite and used a lot of state park approved firewood!
Gooseberry is a beautiful park with some great hikes and even better views. The great thing about camping at Gooseberry is that you have easy access to Split Rock State Park and Tettegouche State Park just to name a few. These are so accessible if you’re camping at Gooseberry.
The site included:
• Long parking spot for a truck w/ a trailer, Winnebago, or sprinter van.
• Large mulch tent pad
• Wooden picnic table
• Tall fire ring (probably 18" tall) with a swiveling grill for cooking
Note: Bathrooms did have toilet paper and were cleaned daily but our’s did not have hand sanitizer.
