Ladd Pond Cabins And Campground

6 RV Sites, 4 Cabins

Ladd Pond Cabins and Campground in Stewartstown, New Hampshire, offers six full-hookup RV sites and four cabins in the far northern Connecticut Lakes region, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Open all year with on-site fishing guides, this is a genuine four-season wilderness base in one of the Northeast's most remote environments. Six back-in sites run in water-and-electric and full-hookup configurations carrying 30-amp service, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Four cabins provide enclosed lodging. A general store and firewood handle the practical side. The operators note that in the event of a pandemic or government shutdown preventing your stay, you receive a voucher good for two years or as local law requires. Pets are welcome. Fishing guide services are the distinguishing amenity, and they matter here — this is remote water where local knowledge separates a productive day from a blank one. A pond on the property supports fishing, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boats, boating, and water sports, with hiking, biking, and birding from camp and off-roading nearby. Stewartstown sits in Coös County where New Hampshire narrows to a corridor between Vermont and Maine, and the Connecticut River's headwaters flow south from the Canadian border through boreal forest and cold-water ponds. The remote sporting camp tradition has drawn anglers, hunters, and wilderness campers here since the nineteenth century, and little about that has changed. Year-round operation makes hunting season, ice fishing, and summer angling all viable. With six RV sites, reserve well ahead in any season.

Coos Canyon Campground and Cabins

20 RV Sites, 1 Cabin, 17 Tent Sites

Coos Canyon Campground and Cabins in Byron, ME, offers 20 full-hookup RV sites, 1 cabin, and 17 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites come in three categories — back-in, premium back-in, and premium pull-thru — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a dump station, and WiFi cover the essentials, and trailer rentals are available for guests without a rig. Pets are welcome. Gold panning is the signature activity here — the Swift River runs past the campground at Coos Canyon, one of the best-known panning spots in New England, and guests work the gravel bars all season. A beach, walking trails, and river access fill out the rest, with swimming, fishing, paddling, hiking, biking, and birding, and off-road riding nearby. Byron sits in Oxford County in Maine's Western Lakes and Mountains region, about two hours inland from the coast. Rates for sites, the cabin, tent spots, and trailer rentals are on the booking page. The Maine season is short — reserve ahead for summer and for foliage weeks.

Pemi Cabins

Along the Pemigewasset River in Lincoln, New Hampshire—at the foot of the White Mountains in Grafton County where the Franconia Notch corridor concentrates the most dramatic granite mountain scenery in New England and where the Pemi's river sound, the mountain air, and the proximity of 800,000 acres of White Mountain National Forest create the outdoor setting that Lincoln's lodging community has built its identity around—Pemi Cabins offers 18 one and two-bedroom cabins with fireplaces, screened porches overlooking the river, kitchens, high-speed WiFi, and flat-screen TVs, alongside an outdoor pizza oven, fire pits, picnic tables, park grills, a shuffleboard court, complimentary morning coffee, and direct snowmobile trail access with trailer parking—pet-friendly and open year-round in a riverside cabin property where 14 of the 18 units sit directly on the Pemigewasset and the White Mountain National Forest's trail network begins within walking distance. The river is under the porch. The mountain is the view. The 18 cabins—14 of which sit directly on the Pemigewasset River—provide the one and two-bedroom configurations with fireplaces for the cool White Mountain nights, screened porches where the river sound creates the sleep environment that Lincoln's lodging competition charges extra for, full kitchens with the equipment for self-catering the week's meals, and the WiFi and flat-screen TVs that the modern cabin guest requires regardless of how completely the mountain setting absorbs the daytime hours. The outdoor pizza oven, communal fire pits, picnic tables, park grills, and shuffleboard court create the shared outdoor social infrastructure that a cabin community needs when the individual units' porches aren't enough space for the evening gathering. Complimentary morning coffee, the pet-friendly policy, and the snowmobile trail access with trailer parking extend the practical hospitality across seasons and travel styles. Lincoln sits in Grafton County at the foot of Franconia Notch on I-93, at the southern gateway to the White Mountain National Forest's most visited corridor. The Pemigewasset Wilderness—the 45,000-acre roadless area south of Franconia Notch that the Wilderness Act protects in one of the largest wilderness designations in the Northeast—creates the backcountry hiking and fishing environment that the Pemi Cabins' location at the wilderness edge makes immediately accessible from the riverside property. The Pemigewasset River's east and west branch confluence in Lincoln creates the main stem that flows south through the Pemi Valley toward Plymouth and the Lakes Region. Franconia Notch State Park, 5 miles north on I-93, concentrates the White Mountains' most iconic attractions in the 8-mile granite notch—the Flume Gorge's 800-foot natural chasm with boardwalks and covered bridges along the Flume Brook, the aerial tramway to Cannon Mountain's 4,080-foot summit, Echo Lake's swimming beach and mountain reflections, and the Basin's pothole-carved granite bowl at the base of a waterfall. Loon Mountain Resort, 3 miles east of Lincoln on the Kancamagus Highway, operates ski lifts from December through March and mountain biking and the gondola scenic ride from May through October. The 34-mile Kancamagus Highway east through the national forest to Conway delivers the most scenic fall foliage drive in New Hampshire during October's peak color weeks. Pemi Cabins operates year-round in the White Mountains' four-season climate—the winter snowmobile season from January through March on the groomed trail network accessed directly from the property, the spring and summer hiking and river season from May through September, and the October foliage peak that makes the Franconia Notch corridor one of New England's most photographed autumn landscapes. Reserve your riverside cabin at Pemi Cabins and let the Pemigewasset River's sound, the Franconia Notch backdrop, and Lincoln's White Mountain National Forest position deliver the four-season New Hampshire mountain experience that the screened porch and the fireplace were built to frame.

Kings Bay Campground

137 RV Sites

Kings Bay Campground in Champlain, New York, offers 151 deluxe full-hookup RV sites on Lake Champlain with roughly 1,800 feet of waterfront and one of the few sand beaches on the New York shore. Sites carry 20, 30, and 50-amp with water and sewer, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables, and the campground is open all year. One hundred fifty-one deluxe full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and site WiFi. Cabins round out the accommodations. Laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. One policy to check before booking: RVs are generally required to be within a 10-year model range, and older units need approval in advance. The lake carries the recreation. A sand beach gives direct swimming access, with boating, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding, paddle boats, and fishing from the property. An outdoor pool, clubhouse, recreation center, arcade, billiards, a dog park, hiking, and biking fill the grounds, with picnicking areas and birding along the shoreline. Pets are welcome. Champlain sits at the northern end of the Lake Champlain valley just south of the Canadian border, at the tri-border crossroads of New York, Vermont, and Quebec. Quebec's communities lie north, Vermont's Green Mountains across the lake to the east, and the Adirondacks rise to the west — an unusual range of day trips from one address. Summer lake season drives demand across the Champlain Valley. Reserve well ahead for July and August, and confirm RV age approval if your unit is older than ten years.

Jackman Landing Campground & Cabins

3 Cabins

Jackman Landing Campground & Cabins in Jackman, ME, offers RV and tent camping alongside 3 cabins. Contact the campground for site count, hookups, amp service, and maximum rig length — those specifics aren't published here. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a dump station, and WiFi cover the essentials. Pets are welcome. One detail that matters for the audience this place serves: you can ride ATVs, 4x4s, and bikes directly from your site, and there is room for trailers if you're towing sporting equipment. A pond, creek and river frontage, and lake access fill the property, with kayaking, boating, swimming, fishing, hiking, biking, and genuinely dark northern Maine sky for stargazing. Off-road trails run from the door. Jackman sits where Big Wood Pond flows into the Moose River in Somerset County near the Canadian border — wilderness lake country where moose outnumber campers on most fall mornings and the trail systems run into the unorganized territories. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Call ahead about trailer space and your rig's fit.

from $150/night

Ausable Pines

Ausable Pines in Peru, New York, offers 76 full-hookup RV sites and 14 tent sites on the Adirondack Park's northeastern edge, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. A single standard full-hookup category means every guest gets the same spec, with an outdoor pool, disc golf course, walking trails, and dog park. Seventy-six back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 45 feet. Two things to check before booking: service is 30-amp throughout, so a rig wired for heavier service will need an adapter and some load management, and RVs are required to be in good condition — generally within a 10-year model range, with older rigs cleared in advance. Fourteen tent sites round out the lodging. Firewood and a dog park handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a disc golf course, walking trails, and river frontage filling the grounds. Fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, biking, and picnicking round it out, with a lake nearby. Pets are welcome. Peru sits in Clinton County where the Ausable River's meandering lower valley meets the Lake Champlain shoreline and the eastern Adirondack foothills. This is the Champlain Valley's western shore — apple country and resort towns rather than High Peaks wilderness, though Whiteface, Lake Placid, and Ausable Chasm are all within a short drive, and Burlington sits across the lake by ferry. Summer is the season in the Adirondacks, with foliage drawing a strong September and early October. Reserve well ahead for July and August, and clear RV approval early if your coach is older.

Ausable Chasm Campground

83 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 35 Tent Sites

Ausable Chasm Campground in Keeseville, New York, offers 83 RV sites, two cabins, and 35 tent sites directly across from the Ausable Chasm entrance, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet behind a gated entrance. Full-hookup categories at both amperages join a water-and-electric tier, with an outdoor pool, disc golf course, and recreation center. Eighty-three sites span 30-amp full hookup, 50-amp full hookup, and water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier before booking, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. Two cabins and 35 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a disc golf course, recreation center, sports courts, basketball, volleyball, shuffleboard, horseshoes, walking trails, hiking, biking, mountain biking, a playground, and dog park filling the rest. Boating, swimming, picnicking, and productive birding round it out. The chasm is the reason to stay here and it justifies the trip. The AuSable River has carved 500-million-year-old Potsdam sandstone into one of the most dramatic geological features in the Northeast, and the entrance is directly across the road. Lake Champlain, Plattsburgh, and the Adirondack High Peaks are all close. Summer is the season on the Adirondack Park's northeastern edge, with foliage drawing a strong September. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

from $41/night

Tamworth Campground

51 RV Sites, 4 Onsite RV/Trailers

Tamworth Campground in New Hampshire offers 55 RV sites beside the White Mountain National Forest, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 48 feet. Riverfront and river view water-and-electric categories join a full-hookup Safari Area tier and several rental units, with a beach, lake, pond, and mountain views. Fifty-five back-in sites span full hookup Safari Area 30-amp, riverfront water-and-electric 30-amp, and river view water-and-electric 30-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with cable TV, sized to 48 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the riverfront and river view categories carry water and electric but not sewer at the site. Cruiser fifth wheel and Jayco rental units, with and without slide-outs, round out the lodging for guests without a rig. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A beach, lake, pond, and river anchor the recreation, supporting boating, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, and swimming. A pavilion, playground, and horseshoes fill the rest, with hiking in every direction and planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. Carroll County sits in the southern foothills of the White Mountains, where the granite peaks of the Sandwich Range, the Chocorua Lake basin's extraordinary scenery, and White Lake State Park's spring-fed swimming make one of New Hampshire's most photographed corners. North Conway and the Kancamagus are close. Summer and foliage season drive intense demand in the White Mountains. Reserve well ahead for July through mid-October.

A recreation center, sports courts, volleyball, shuffleboard, horseshoes, a playground, dog park, and picnicking areas fill the 130 wooded acres, with wine tasting nearby. Pets are welcome. The Ausable is one of the Northeast's most celebrated wild trout rivers, and the mature hardwood setting delivers the deep-forest quiet that defines the Adirondacks at their best. Keeseville sits in Clinton County just minutes from the Adirondack Northway and the Lake Champlain shoreline, which serves both I-87 travelers and guests who planned specifically for the river and the mountains. Summer and fall foliage drive demand in the Adirondacks. Reserve well ahead, and confirm RV age approval if your unit is over ten years old.

Sun Retreats Westward Shores

25 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 28 Cottages, 1 Lodge, 3 Park Models

Sun Retreats Westward Shores in Ossipee, New Hampshire, offers 25 full-hookup premium RV sites and 34 cabin, cottage, lodge, and park model units on Ossipee Lake, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet behind a gated entrance. A single premium category means every guest gets the same spec, with an indoor pool, water park, marina, and jumping pillow. Twenty-five back-in sites are premium throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. One consistent category and no guesswork. Thirty-four cabins, cottages, lodges, and park models make the lodging inventory larger than the RV side. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and a snack bar handle the practical side. An indoor pool is the standout — genuinely valuable in New Hampshire, where the swimming season is short. A water park, outdoor pool, beach, marina, boat ramp, and boat docks sit alongside for boating, paddle boats, paddle boarding, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing. A jumping pillow, craft room, ball field, sports courts, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, gaga ball, horseshoes, golf cart rentals, a playground, pavilion, dog park, on-site dining, and a bar fill the rest, with skiing and hiking nearby. The northwest shore of Ossipee Lake sits in the transition between the Lakes Region's granite-and-pine country and the White Mountain foothills, with Lake Winnipesaukee and the Kancamagus close. Summer and foliage drive demand hard. Reserve well ahead.

Winni Lakefront Cabin

1 Cabin

Winni Lakefront Cabin in Holderness, NH, offers a secluded three-bedroom lakefront cabin with a private dock slip. This is a single cabin rental rather than a serviced RV park — the published record shows no RV sites or hookups, so contact the property directly if you're traveling in a rig. Propane fills and exchange, a pavilion, a playground, and a beach serve the property. The setting is the entire proposition: a protected cove on Lake Winnipesaukee with your own dock slip, which on this lake is a genuinely scarce thing. Boating and swimming are steps from the door. Holderness sits in Grafton County at the northern end of the Lakes Region, between Winnipesaukee and Squam Lake — the latter familiar to anyone who has seen On Golden Pond. The White Mountains rise just north. Rates for the cabin are on the booking page. One cabin on Winnipesaukee with a dock slip — book as far ahead as they will take it, and call about RV accommodation before you tow.
