Maple Sugar at Goodrich's and fresh blueberries and veggies at Blossoms and Berries, as well as Burtt's Apples and of course Cabot cheese The land is diverse with large open meadows to fields to quiet pine forest. As you walk the tree line you will find old farm implements, old bottles and even an old Ford coop. I would love to restore and use them on the farm. The land is on the crest of the ridge looking East to Danville and the White Mts, and a few feet to the West the entire Green Mts splay before you. The water tastes wonderful, and bubbles up here and there on the property. Our neighbors who also offer camping have sheep, to berries... I offer the healing arts, massage, scar release, the sauna, and other art learning experiences. Please call for arts schedule. * Ps please do not say you will arrive at 5 and show up after dark! Respect goes both ways. I appreciate great campers who pick up and discard their pets poop and respects my time a well. Ps no smoking cigarettes on the property. Thank you to all my great campers! And blessings to those few bad apples!

Franconia Forest - 5 Private Acres

1 site · Tent5 acres · Bethlehem, NH
Live like a local less than 12 minutes from Franconia Notch. Our site is just up the road from some of the most famous hikes, overlooks, swimming holes, formations, and ski resorts in New England—and 25 minutes from the Kancamagus Highway, connecting the eastern and western White Mountains and counted among the most scenic drives in America. You will never run out of things to do in any season or weather. This site is less than 15 minutes from Cannon Mountain, Echo Lake Beach, Profile Lake, Mt. Lafayette, and less than 25 minutes from Flume Gorge, Clark's Trading Post, the seasonal Ice Castles, downtown Lincoln, the Hobo Railroad, North Woodstock, Loon Mountain, Bretton Woods, Mt. Washington, the Cog Railway, and so much more. Our 5-acre forest features just a single private campsite, with a huge tenting platform, granite fire pit, and a rocky creek passing right by the site. From the two-car parking area, a 200-ft. trail winds through the woods, over a wooden stream crossing, and ends at the site itself set far back from the road. Modern conveniences are also close by. It's 5 minutes to the nearest grocery / convenience store, 5 minutes to Rek-Lis Brewing, 4 minutes to Super Secret Ice Cream (James Beard Award nominee), 13 minutes to Polly's Pancake Parlor (our favorite) and countless other restaurants. 17 minutes to the nearest medical facility. Other Notes and Important Things: - Please pack out all trash. Cleaners are in high demand in this region and we will have to charge a steep retroactive cleaning fee if any trash is left at the site. - Likewise please let us know ASAP if trash is present when you arrive. - The tenting platform is 12 ft. wide on its narrowest edge. It's flat and dry, but there are no anchor points for stakes or lines. Freestanding tents are best, or you may want to pack extra-long guy lines. - Don't forget the bug spray, especially in Summer! That goes for all campsites in the White Mountains, especially creekside ones like ours. - A portable toilet with privacy tent is available at the back of the site. Please use the provided trash bags as liners and pack them out if used. Odor-absorbing pine shavings are provided. - Please observe quiet hours between 9PM and 9AM everyday. - Cell coverage is surprisingly strong here. You should have direct 4G LTE access on Verizon and AT&T, and 4G extended coverage on T-Mobile / Sprint. - You may want to pack a wood splitting axe. Feel free to burn any dead, fallen, or cut wood on the premises, but all firewood must be less than 5 inches in diameter.

Waterfall & Brook Camping

4 sites · Tents4 acres · Plainfield, VT
This is one of the most beautiful places to live or visit in Vermont. My home for the past 40 years is right next to a stunning waterfall and brook. I love sharing this space with others. I have 3 separate campsites, each with their own pathways and privacy from each other. Your visit here will allow you many choices of ways to relax. My land abuts the 700 acres of school property behind me and I have trail and path access right from my yard to many miles of an old road bed for walking, biking, hiking, or exploring the length of the brook. There is a waterfall across the street. At least 5 different swimming holes and the water is cold and refreshing! I am 20 minutes from the state capital, Montpelier, Vt. You have access to my delicious pure clean spring water from the hose. There is a pizza/restaurant/bar in my town just 6 minutes away. Please, no fireworks, you'll get me banned by the town officials! If you camp here you will feel like you are in a forest, but will be able to drive anywhere with ease.

The best camping near Brighton State Park guide

Overview

About

Situated on the shores of both Spectacle and Island Pond in Vermont’s northeastern highlands, Brighton State Park is one of the state’s most remote and wild state parks. The dense forests in this corner of Vermont provides the perfect habitat for moose, bears, coyotes, and hundreds of songbirds. Hiking, paddling, fishing, and swimming are popular activities in the park and the campground at Brighton State Park offers 54 campsites, 23 lean-to shelters, and five cabin rentals. The park also features two swimming beaches, a nature center, playground area, and boat rentals. 

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. Reservations are strongly recommended, especially during the summer months and on  weekends. Reservations can be made up to 11 months in advance online or over the phone. 
  2. Brighton State Park does not have any designated first-come, first-served campsites, but campers are welcome to stay in the campground without reservations, space permitting. 
  3. Same day reservations can only be made by contacting the park directly. 
  4. The five waterfront cabins can be reserved up to eleven months in advance. Book early, cabin rentals fill quickly.  

When to go

The Brighton State Park Campground is open Memorial Day weekend through Indigenous Peoples' Day, the second Monday in October. The park remains open the rest of the year but access and services are limited. Thanks to its remoteness, Brighton State Park does not get as busy as other Vermont State Parks. Campsites are often available in summer, even without a reservation. July and August are the best times for swimming and boating and fall colors often peak in late September. 

Know before you go

  1. Campsites include fire rings, picnic tables, and access to flush toilets, coin-operated showers, and a dump station. There are no hookups.  
  2. Kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards are available to rent at the campers’ beach.
  3. The park’s interpretive center offers nature crafts, night hikes, and campfire programs.
  4. Dogs are not allowed on beaches, designated swimming areas, in day use areas, or in most cabins. Dogs are allowed elsewhere in the park.
