Ammonoosuc Campground

This campground was very nice and the people who run it are very nice. We camped in a large bell tent but stayed on a RV site for electric and water. The bath house was cleaned several times a day and always looked and smelled clean. They also have primitive tent sites. You should be aware that some of these were next to a graveyard if that would bother you. They also have seasonal rv campers but the ones we met were very nice and helpful in locating restaurants etc.

Had a great experience. Ellen, the owner, was a very gracious host, being a warm and friendly upon our arrival. The tent site was perfect, bathrooms were clean, well lit, and had music. We ran into some trouble when hiking the next day, but Ellen came to help out, even though we were strangers. She went above and beyond, and my friends and I are very thankful. I’d highly recommend this campground!!

We camped here for the Fourth of July , last minute. We were grateful to score a site. I’m going to say, this is not what I expected. It’s not on the river and the word “ walking distance” isn’t really accurate. It’s in long walking distance to a part of the river that isn’t really swim able. I asked her upon arrival if you can walk or drive and she said drive. The website seemed to make you believe otherwise. They also mention a store is across the street. It’s not across the street it’s down the road and across , but it’s actually vacant now. The campsites for tents are so clustered you have zero privacy. They packed as many sites as they could. The roads are narrow and unlike the kancamagus, they don’t have “ one way signs” which makes for disaster. We barely fit a 4 person tent and a truck on the site. This is a place to rest your head after hiking. The bathhouse was nice; having service was nice, being able to make a reservation was nice, but I’ll never camp here again. If you have camped the Kanc, you will be in shock if you camp here. This isn’t the nature retreat we hoped for. Lastly; after a nice day at the river a few miles down, I was heading to the office to check my mom in as a visitor. When I arrived the owner rudely approached me saying “ you better take that tarp down; my husband went by your site and he’s LIVID”… I was shocked and confused. My husband had hung our tarp for the rain to two trees to give a little privacy so we didn’t have to awkwardly look at our neighbors while having a fire. . Neatly. Not only did she do this in front of her friends, but it was rude and intense. We wanted to leave then and there. I felt like a kid getting in trouble. We hesitated to stay but we were tired so we did. She then apologized in a condescending way, which is better than nothing but it’s not acceptable and she should control her behavior as a business owner. Stumps that cause for destruction all around the camp that they haven’t taken care of and just say “ watch out for that stump” . Maybe put your husband to work on the landscaping instead of being “ livid” about a tarp hung up for privacy on a campsite. All set here.

Highly recommend! Only tent camped here one night but would’ve stayed longer! Great, safe, secluded space for a solo female and the bath house was clean with nice, hot showers. Just opened for the season and the owners were super kind and responded quickly. Cute store onsite with souvenirs and firewood/camping essentials!

Very friendly and supportive owners. Well maintained and level lots. Very nice heated swimming pool. Would highly recommend this campground!
