Saratoga RV Park

246 RV Sites

Saratoga RV Park in Gansevoort, New York, offers 246 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet, just north of Saratoga Springs. Basic and premium categories join an outdoor pool, clubhouse, recreation center, and on-site dining in the Capital Region. Two hundred forty-six back-in sites run in basic and premium categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet. A laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, RV storage, and boat storage handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a clubhouse, recreation center, and on-site dining besides. Pickleball, volleyball, basketball, shuffleboard, and sports courts fill the courts, with walking trails, hiking, biking, and a playground across the grounds. A state park is nearby. Pets are welcome. Saratoga Springs is the draw, and it carries an unusual concentration for a city its size: world-class thoroughbred racing at one of America's oldest tracks, the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, Revolutionary and Civil War history, and the natural mineral springs that made the city a destination in the first place. Directions from the south: take Exit 15 north off I-87, turn right, and follow NY-50 for eight miles — the park is on the left. The July and August racing meet is the sharpest demand spike of the year and fills lodging across the entire Capital Region. Reserve as early as you can if your stay overlaps it.

One hundred six sites span full hookup deluxe 30-amp, full hookup deluxe 50-amp, water-and-electric 30-amp, and tent/pop-up water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with cable TV, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and a gated entrance handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and beach anchor the summer, with the lake supporting boating, fishing, and swimming. A recreation center, game room, playground, pavilion, and hiking fill the grounds, with planned activities through the season and mountains in every direction. Pets are welcome.

Pine Hollow Campground

49 RV Sites, 3 Tent Sites

Pine Hollow Campground in Pownal, Vermont, offers 49 full-hookup RV sites and three tent sites in a small scenic valley at the southwestern corner of the state, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. A spring-fed stocked trout pond with paddleboat rentals and a beach anchors a genuinely traditional New England campground. Forty-nine sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, cable TV, and site WiFi. Pull-through sites are limited, so request one if the largest motorhomes need drive-through access. Three tent sites cover simpler camping. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The stocked trout pond is the centerpiece — spring-fed, with paddleboat and boat rentals, fishing, and a beach. A green meadow bordered by towering pines gives the campground its setting, with a playground, pavilion, horseshoes, shuffleboard, and picnicking filling the grounds. This is a campground rather than a destination resort, and in a region where the best sites have largely been commercialized, that character is much of the appeal. Pets are welcome. Pownal sits in Bennington County where the Berkshires extend north into Vermont's wooded hollows, less than 10 miles from both Bennington, Vermont and Williamstown, Massachusetts. Directions from the north: from the junction of Route 7 and Route 9 in Bennington, take Route 7 south 6.4 miles, left onto Barbers Pond Road 1.5 miles, right onto Old Military Road half a mile, then follow the Pine Hollow signs. Fall foliage is the peak — reserve well ahead.

Bonnie Brae Cabins & Campsites

Situated in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, in the heart of the Berkshire Hills of western Massachusetts, Bonnie Brae Cabins and Campsites offers a comfortable base for guests exploring one of New England's most culturally and naturally rich regional destinations. The campground's cabin and rental trailer accommodations provide a furnished lodging alternative for guests who prefer a stationary retreat with access to the Berkshires' full range of outdoor and cultural offerings without the logistics of towing or driving a large rig through the hills. The campground's accommodation options—cabins and rental trailers—are suited to couples, families, and small groups seeking a convenient Berkshires base that does not require hauling camping equipment to a mountain destination. The property's positioning within the Pittsfield area keeps guests close to Pontoosuc Lake, where boating, fishing, and waterfront recreation are available just minutes from the campground, and Pittsfield State Forest, which provides hiking, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing trails through diverse Berkshire woodland terrain. The Berkshire Hills landscape surrounding Pittsfield is defined by rounded granite ridges and hardwood-forested hillsides that produce among the most celebrated fall foliage displays in the northeastern United States. The Housatonic River valley below the ridge line gives the region its characteristic mix of pastoral farmland, forested hillsides, and small-city cultural infrastructure that has drawn artists, writers, and musicians to the Berkshires since the 19th century. Seasonal walking, wildflower observation, and wildlife watching through the campground's surrounding forest add a natural dimension to stays focused primarily on the region's cultural programming. The Hancock Shaker Village, a short drive from Pittsfield, preserves one of the most intact 19th-century Shaker communities in the country—a living history site where the distinctive Shaker architecture, craftsmanship, and communal agricultural heritage are interpreted through guided tours and hands-on demonstrations. The broader Berkshires cultural scene encompasses Tanglewood Music Center in Lenox—the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra—along with internationally recognized theater at Shakespeare & Company and Barrington Stage Company, and a dense concentration of galleries, antique dealers, and artisan studios across the county's small towns. Bonnie Brae Cabins and Campsites is open through the warm-weather season, with summer and fall representing the two peak periods. The summer arts season—anchored by Tanglewood's July and August concert schedule—brings the highest visitor volumes to the Berkshires, while October foliage season creates a second surge of demand across all accommodation types in the region. Advance reservations for cabin stays during Tanglewood weekends and peak fall color weeks are strongly recommended, as Berkshire County accommodations fill well ahead of those high-demand dates each year. The Housatonic River valley, which runs south through Berkshire County past Great Barrington and Sheffield, provides a scenic corridor for additional day trips and outdoor exploration for guests spending multiple days at the campground and looking to move beyond Pittsfield's immediate surroundings into the southern Berkshires. The Berkshire Hills themselves—the southernmost section of the Green Mountains that extend into western Massachusetts—reach elevations approaching 3,500 feet at Mount Greylock, the state's highest point, providing a mountain hiking experience accessible within a day trip from the campground.
