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.

Blue Haven Campground and Resort

16 RV Sites

Blue Haven Campground and Resort in Ellenburg Depot, NY, offers 16 RV sites with 20 and 30-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in two nightly-stay categories: 30/20-amp full-hookup back-ins carrying water, sewer, and electric, and 30/20-amp water-and-electric back-ins. Each has a fire pit. Note the electrical: this is a 20 and 30-amp property, so a rig wired for heavier service will need an adapter and some load management. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a dump station, and WiFi cover the essentials. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. Guests may bring their own boat or kayak and their own golf cart. An outdoor pool, a clubhouse, a recreation center, mini-golf, a pavilion, a ball field, sport courts, volleyball, basketball, shuffleboard, and horseshoes fill the grounds, with a boat launch to Lake Champlain for boating, paddling, and fishing, plus walking trails through the forest. Ellenburg Depot sits at the northern edge of the Adirondacks — six million protected acres, 2,000 miles of trail, and 3,000 lakes and ponds — with a state park nearby. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Summer weeks book earliest.

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.

10 Acres Campground

15 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites

10 Acres Campground in Addison, VT, offers 15 full-hookup RV sites and 5 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. The three categories say what you get: lake view full-hookup sites with water, sewer, and 50/30-amp power; pool side RV sites; and water-and-electric sites. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, propane fills and exchange, and a dump station cover the essentials, and pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, a pavilion, a playground, horseshoes, walking trails, and a pond fill the grounds, with lake access for fishing, boating, swimming, and kayaking, plus planned activities. A restaurant is a mile out and skydiving is two and a half. Addison sits on Lake Champlain — 120 miles of freshwater inland sea studded with islands, the Green Mountains on one shore and the Adirondacks on the other. Shelburne Museum and Lake Placid are both day trips. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Lake view sites are limited and book first.

from $35/night

Onion River Campground

26 RV Sites, 24 Tent Sites

Onion River Campground in Plainfield, Vermont, offers 26 RV sites and 24 tent sites along the Winooski River, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 25 feet. Full-hookup and water-and-electric back-in categories at both amperages join walking trails, a community fire pit, and forested grounds. Twenty-six back-in sites span back-in 30-amp, back-in 30-amp water-and-electric, back-in 50-amp, and back-in 50-amp water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 25 feet. Two things to plan around carefully: the 25-foot cap is genuinely restrictive and rules out most modern RVs, so this suits vans, small trailers, and truck campers rather than coaches, and the water-and-electric categories do not carry sewer at the site. Twenty-four tent sites make this substantially a tent property. A dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Walking trails, a community fire pit, and the surrounding forest fill the grounds, with swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, biking, and picnicking on and around the river. The dark central Vermont sky makes for excellent stargazing. Pets are welcome. Vermonters called the Winooski the Onion River for the wild leeks along its banks before European settlement, and the name stuck to the campground. Plainfield sits 10 to 15 minutes from Montpelier — the smallest state capital in the country and the only one without a McDonald's — with Goddard College, the Groton State Forest, and the Northeast Kingdom all close. Summer and foliage drive demand. Reserve ahead, and check your rig against the 25-foot limit.

Spacious Skies Adirondack Peaks

126 RV Sites, 24 Cabins, 7 Tent Sites, 3 Yurts

Spacious Skies Adirondack Peaks in North Hudson, New York, offers 126 RV sites, 24 cabins, seven tent sites, and three yurts in Essex County's High Peaks country, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Waterfront and buddy pull-through categories join full-hookup and water-and-electric back-in tiers, with a pool, beach, mini-golf, and jumping pillow. One hundred twenty-six sites span back-in 30-amp, back-in 30/50-amp, back-in water-and-electric 30-amp, pull-thru 30/50-amp, pull-thru buddy, and waterfront categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. The buddy sites suit two rigs traveling together, and waterfront is worth requesting. Twenty-four cabins, seven tent sites, and three yurts round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. All guests check in at the main office and sign the terms — e-signature in advance is encouraged. An outdoor pool and beach anchor the summer, with a lake and river supporting boating, canoeing, kayaking, and swimming. Mini-golf, a jumping pillow, arcade, recreation center, craft room, gaga ball, sports courts, volleyball, gem mining, bike rentals, golf cart rentals, walking trails, a playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the rest. Mount Marcy, Lake Placid, and the Boquet River are all close. Summer and foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Auberge du changement d'ère

Auberge du changement d'ère in Coaticook, Quebec, offers eco-lodge accommodations — including an Ultra-Yurt and the suspended Gouttes d'Air units — on a valley slope in the Eastern Townships, open year-round. Cabins, a large tipi, campfire areas, a pavilion, and walking trails make this a design-led retreat rather than a conventional campground. Accommodations are the point here. The eco-lodges are purpose-built structures rather than standard cabins, and bedding arrangements vary by unit: full bedding, including sheets, duvets, pillows, and bath towels, is provided for the Ultra-Yurt, while Gouttes d'Air stays include the main bedding but require guests to bring their own for children sleeping on the net mezzanine. Restrooms, showers, and WiFi are available, and firewood is provided for the campfire areas. Note there is no reception before 4:00pm, so early arrivals should plan accordingly. The property is built around hospitality and setting rather than programmed activity. A pavilion and large tipi serve gatherings, campfire areas anchor the evenings, and walking trails run the valley slope through forest and mountain terrain. A river and stream run nearby. The host family's presence is central to how the place operates. Coaticook sits in the heart of the Coaticook Valley's attractions, in Quebec's Eastern Townships. The surrounding mountain and river landscape is the primary draw, with the valley's main sites within easy reach. The auberge is open all year, which makes it a genuine four-season option in a region where many properties close for winter. Given the small number of distinctive units, book well ahead for any peak-season or holiday stay.

Lake Champagne Resort Vermont

31 RV Sites

Lake Champagne Resort in Randolph, Vermont, offers 32 full-hookup RV sites at the geographic center of the state, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. A single 50/30-amp full-hookup category means every guest gets the same spec, with a lake, beach, walking trails, and sports courts. Thirty-two sites are full hookup throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 50/30-amp with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One consistent category and no guesswork — every guest gets the same spec, which is a refreshingly simple way to run a small resort. A laundry, propane fills, dump station, showers, firewood, and recycling handle the practical side. A lake and beach anchor the recreation, with swimming, biking, walking trails, a pavilion, dog park, and sports courts filling the rest. The birding through the surrounding woods and pasture is productive. A golf course is nearby, and the property operates as a wedding venue. Pets are welcome. The address is 53 Lake Champagne Drive in Randolph Center. This is quintessential Vermont countryside — the Green Mountains' ancient metamorphic ridgeline, dairy farm pasture, and stream-fed ponds, with the state's geographic center just up the road. Randolph's downtown, the Vermont Technical College campus, and the Green Mountain National Forest are all close, and Montpelier, Woodstock, and the Mad River Valley ski areas are within an easy drive. Summer and fall foliage drive the heaviest demand in Vermont, and foliage season fills the state. Reserve well ahead for July through mid-October.

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.

Glen-Hudson Campsite

117 RV Sites, 1 Cabin

Glen-Hudson Campsite in Warrensburg, NY, offers full-hookup RV sites and cabins, with room for rigs up to 45 feet. Contact the campground for site count and amp service, since those specifics aren't published. The property is rated big rig friendly within its 45-foot limit. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, propane fills, firewood, a dump station, and WiFi cover the practical side, with cabins for guests without a rig. Pets are welcome. Direct Hudson River frontage is the reason to book. Guests tube, fish, and paddle straight from the site, with whitewater rafting, boating, swimming, water sports, and biking, plus a heated pool and organized weekend activities. Warrensburg sits on the Hudson in the southern Adirondacks, minutes from Lake George and its amusement parks, with the high peaks north. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Adirondack summer is short and the Lake George corridor fills — reserve well ahead, and call to confirm your rig's fit.

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.
