Another amazing campground in the White Mountain National Forest. This is a very large campground with many sites and it fills up quickly in the summer season. You can reserve some sites while others(the super nice ones) are first come-first serve. There are a few sites that sit right on the pond but those are popular and you would be lucky to get one! Other sites are situated on knolls that require parking below and walking a few steps up to the site. So be prepared to possibly hike your gear a short distance. There are even some walk-in sites if you’re looking for a bit more seclusion and don’t mind a walk. 

There is fishing allowed in the pond which is stocked in the early summer. I didn’t have any luck but you can fish from shore or launch a non-motorized canoe/kayak/john boat and try your luck. There are also a few trails you can explore around the pond and a swimming beach(no pets allowed). We were there in October so we didn’t take a dip. 

Sites are nicely spaced and shaded. Fire pits are large and were clean upon our arrival. Large picnic tables are also a plus. Most sites have crushed gravel but there are some that appear to have more dirt, which might be less than ideal in a hard rain. There are well maintained restrooms and showers(coin operated) centrally located in each of the loops(of which there are many). The camp hosts are attentive and friendly. This is a great, inexpensive, well run Forest Service Campground in the White Mountains.
