Great for groups of 6+ people, or two families looking to share single sites, all have plenty of room. 1,2 & 7,8 are the smallest, estimated size of 30'x35' each. The rest of the sites are much larger, 50'x50' or larger. Camp features 2 double pit toilets buildings, camp keepers kept them clean. Plenty of parking at each site for 2+ vehicles or trailers, or RVs. A pump water station for filling up...

Plenty of parking at each site for 2+ vehicles or trailers, or RVs. A pump water station for filling up. No site provided electric. There is also a bear proof dumpster. Each site also had large picnic tables and large fireplaces with fold-over grill tops. Very quiet, no road noise and no light pollution, tons of stars at night. The camp does feature a small 100'x120' recreation field by the entrance for all campers use. Quick access to all of the hiking and river swimming spots and a 5 minutes drive to Mt Washington or Gorham for resupplies. Posted with pics of each site. 10 out of 10, recommended, Enjoy.

I went with a Tenkara fishing camp and it was a beautiful experience to come to this camp that was big enough to accommodate for 75 of us campers! We packed it out and it was cozy. We had enough space to do our fishing lessons in a large open field in the middle of the camp sites. The area (all around White Mountain) has tons of rivers and creeks that allowed us to all enjoy the fishing without fe... I went with a Tenkara fishing camp and it was a beautiful experience to come to this camp that was big enough to accommodate for 75 of us campers! We packed it out and it was cozy. We had enough space to do our fishing lessons in a large open field in the middle of the camp sites. The area (all around White Mountain) has tons of rivers and creeks that allowed us to all enjoy the fishing without feel overcrowded. Each camp site has 2 wooden tables and a fire pit, and there are also 2 sets of 2 bathrooms (4 toilets total) on two different opposite sides of the camp sites. The toilet paper was also always well stacked during the 4 days we were there. As well as the bear/raccoon trash bin was in the middle of the sites. I would say a very good option if you're in the area!

Very quiet place with clean large group camping spots. Pump water and pit toilets only. We spent 3 nights in an RV. There is no dumping station, but there is one at the neighbor's campground that costs 5 $ for non registered guests.
