Site S1. Nice site, good combo of sun and shade, close to rest rooms closest water was just behind the site across the road.

Clean, safe and comfortable. Flush toilets close by and showers. Water went ice cold in shower after about 2 min but that may be a plumbing issue as I shut the water off and soaped up then turned it back on to rinse. Started to warm up again after about 20 seconds but very wary of inconsistent shower temps. Staff was pleasant, wood available for credit card purchase. A little inconvenient that the gate closes at 9P and you have to hike in to your site of caught out too late. But all in all a pleasant experience. Will list this campground under my favorites.

Big spacious sites, nice showers. Playground. Easy to get into/out of. Lots of lovely trails. Near the disc golf course.The hosts were very nice, too.I only wish they had sites with sewer.

Wonderful hosts, clean sites and restful atmosphere!

West Thompson Lake Camping is very nice. Sites and facilities are clean and well maintained. Sites are private. Firewood is available at a very reasonably price. The hosts are very friendly. If you have a CT fishing license the lake is very accessible. There are some very nice hiking trails which begin right in the campground. We have camped here 3 times and we are looking forward to many more.

West Thompson Lake Campground is a little hidden treasure! I live nearby, and have biked by this place a million times. We really wanted to go camping on a whim last second, and were able to get a site for two nights. The campground is very well kept and clean. There is nice separation between sites and between sites and bathrooms. The site we had featured a nice large pad that I could get my pickup bed rig into with no issues at all. The staff was super friendly and had some events going on over the weekend. The wood was also great burning wood and was cheap compared to what I have been seeing lately. I will certainly be staying here again sometime!

Simple and safe campground. The staff was friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anyone!
@HanselGED77249 · Camped on Aug 6, 2025 at Campsite #17
The campground very well taken care of, very clean. So many activities to do near by my only disappointment was the fishing on the lake, I was there for a few hour and didnt catch anything but still had a relaxing time. Theres also a playground for the kids. The bathrooms are so clean I was shocked so far the cleanest bathrooms of any campsite Ive gone to.

Nice small campground with large, spacious partially/fully shaded sites. Hosts John & Deb and park rangers were wonderful. The lake itself offers great paddling opportunities and the hiking trails were phenomenal - well-shaded mostly with some open grasslands - could go distances with different trails.
@DougN997938442 · Camped on Jul 29, 2025 at Campsite #5
This is a lovely, well kept campground. The hosts are friendly and hard working, they even rake the sites between stays!The only issue that keeps this from being a 5 star review is the bathhouse. They are kept very clean, but there is only one shower per gender, and the water temperature fluctuates wildly. I understand that this is a 40 year old hot water system and desperately needs an upgrade.

Great campground Grounds real cleanNice and quietStaff checks the areasGreat visitThanks
@ArchF366BD333E · Camped on Jul 27, 2025 at Campsite #5
Bathroom/showers were not clean.Campsites were not on or within view of the lake.
@RonaldH093523B · Camped on Jul 16, 2025 at Campsite #11
The campground sites are very nice. Bath house water is great in the shower until someone else turns on the shower ( broken relay ?). The only BIG ISSUE IS LOCKING THE GATE AT 9 pm. We walked the hill up to our site, I thought my husband would have a heart attack. Why does it need to be locked for entry it's a peaceful safe area. !!

Thompson lake campground is a small secluded camp with plenty of of space between campsites. We had site 10 at the top of the loop, it was easy to back into and had water and electricity. Since Thompson lake is in the tri state region , you can easily drive to Rhode Island and Massachusetts.

We loved it here!! Good amenities
@JosephC886B731 · Camped on Jul 9, 2025 at Campsite #FL1
Clean facilities. friendly, helpful staff. The disc golf course is great. The firewood wasnt the greatest but, besides that a great experience.
@LyAnnG608B58D1 · Camped on Jul 8, 2025 at Campsite #4
Showers are in need of work. There is not enough hot water to provide more than one shower at a time and even then it's iffy to have enough for a complete shower. This has been an ongoing issue for years.
@DennisS06D1417 · Camped on Jul 3, 2025 at Campsite #22
Small campground, clean and quiet. Helpful hosts. Close to some CT and RI state parks with beaches and hiking.
@FrankD8276020 · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #6

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
