Open year round. Most sites are close together with very little privacy

A few sites are pretty much right on the river which is awesome. There's a nearby swimming hole. Campground is only short drive away from an endless amount of hiking options

Despite being so remote, one of the busiest back country camps in the Whites.

Has a nice shelter, spring, privy, platforms, some sites have somewhat of a view of far away mountain tops.

No space for non-free standing tents. Quite a hike dropping down from the main trail to the campsite, 15-20 min straight up to hike out in the morning

Located just off of Franconia Ridge, a great basecamp for anyone doing the ridge or a pemi loop

There's a spring for water (still should probably filter it), composting outhouses. Tent sites are platforms, so make sure to have a free standing tent. There are a couple "overflow" spots the caretaker may let you stay in if you can't use a platform

Gets packed on weekends

Was really quiet the night I went. Clean, fairly secluded sites. Will be back for sure

Cool location right on the edge of the Dry River Wilderness. Great Basecamp for lots of hikes in the area. Some spots are right on the highway with not much tree cover in between so can be loud. Some walk in sites with platforms are further from the road

Vid is from the river off the trail that starts in the campground

Great location with lake views, trails etc. Some sites are spaced out, some are closer together. Lots of great spots on the water, easy to put a kayak in from.

Can't beat it for only an hour from Boston
