Camped there with beautiful fall foliage for two nights. The water view was marvelous. Don’t feel like to leave. Facilities are very clean in camping area. I would suggest is to add a dish washing station to make it more convenient. The boat launch dock is more than a meter higher than water level to launch paddle board. I tried to launch on the side, the water was quite shallow without stepping into the water. Getting back up had some stuff rocks and make it a little challenge to get out of. Luckily, a lady who were enjoying the sunset view was able to lend a hand. Would definitely come back.
Nice park, helpful staff. We were there in the fall and it was a lovely stay. Part of the reason we were there was that we were unable to find a slot deeper in the mountains due to it being fall. VT State Parks, I believe don't have hookups in general so we were boondocking but lovely walking around the park, good dump station, reasonable price. Our rig is 27ft from hitch to back and I imagine it might be tough for some rigs over 30ft.
Very charming camping place. Once you're there, the crickets are so loud. You really feel far from everything and close to nature. The grand isle region and its surroundings islands are an absolute gem. Please go.
We camped for a week and had a lot of fun. Unfortunately, the beach at the park was closed for a couple of the days we were there but we were able to take the 5 minute drive to Knights Point Beach and got in free because we had paid for the camp site for the week and that allows you to get into any state park for free. We had fires and enjoyed a calm week camping. Highly recommend, we made memories we can cherish forever. 💟
We stayed here for a week and when we arrived and saw the site we booked, I was kinda unhappy. So we went back to the office and asked if it was possible to get a different site. Destiny and Isabelle were absolutely amazing in helping us get a site large enough for our tent and wasn't in the mud (was really just that one site). Destiny and Isabelle were both very helpful throughout our entire week, even though reservations got messed up by the move. The bathroom are also clean, the sites are great, (just site 24 in the mud). Proper food storage is a must, the chipmunks are very brave. Other than a chipmunk problem (lol) we had a great time! Great camp ground and a good stay.
