Welcome to Cliff Island, a unique offering within the Campgrounds & RV Parks category, located at 2 Ledgeview Shore Dr, Alexandria, NH 03222. Please note that no phone number is provided in the available information.
Environment: Cliff Island provides a fantastic and somewhat secluded camping environment on Newfound Lake. It appears to be particularly well-suited for groups such as Scouts or other youth organizations. According to a review from early September, the water temperature was a comfortable 70 degrees, and the island was notably mosquito-free during that time. The island offers ample deadfall for potential campfires (though regulations should be checked), and plenty of space for exploration and pitching tents.
Services: Cliff Island offers basic facilities suitable for a primitive camping experience. There are two latrines available on the island, one for each campsite. Beyond this, it operates on a pack-in, pack-out, and leave-no-trace principle, emphasizing self-sufficiency.
Features: The key feature of Cliff Island is its unique island location on Newfound Lake, providing a distinct camping experience. It offers multiple picnic tables and an Adirondack chair on the south side, suggesting designated areas for gathering and enjoying the views. The ample space allows for larger groups to camp comfortably and explore the island's natural surroundings. The absence of mosquitoes in early September, as noted by a reviewer, can be a significant benefit.

Fantastic camping for Scouts or other youth groups. In early September the water was 70, and the island was completely mosquito free. Ample deadfall, plenty of space to explore and pitch tents along with many picnic tables and an Adirondack on the south side. Island has 2 latrines (one per site). Other than that, pack-in, pack-out and leave no trace!
I went here last year and I loved it, I went this year and it was the same only difference is that this year there were no squirrels
