Beautifully maintained and quiet campground that appeals to the whole family! Campsites with brook access and Wild River is just a hop and a skip away. Plenty of fish to catch, trails to hike and memories to make. The owls calling in the night are remarkable! Can't wait to return.

Had a wonderful stay at site 20. My girls loved exploring the river out back. Great place for kids. Nice flat sites with plenty of room for tents. The Hosts were wonderful and very attentive. Make sure you have a bit of cash for firewood, ATM's are a bit of a drive

Great place, this was my second time staying at Hastings. My last visit was at the end of the season during the week and only 2 or 3 spots were occupied. Very quiet....5 stars!!

One of the best national forest sites we have ever been too. The host was great with lots of info. He even said goodbye and thanked us for staying. We will be back!

Well kept, nice sites well spaced. Close to lots of hiking trails.

Every year I go to white mountain national forest. I enjoyed being close to river. And going swimming. The campsite was very clean.

I grew up camping at Hastings Campground, it has always been a lovely experience, far from any towns.
I recommend the Roost Trail, it's a great little jaunt up to a nice view, very close to the campground. The nearby small footbridge over the Wild River leads to a sweet little sandy spot for wading and swimming in the river off to the right.
Coming up from the south via Rt 113 there is a very kind couple, Jim and Becky, who sell firewood, local maps, hand-picked wild blueberries, their own maple syrup and eggs from their hens. Jim works as a docent at the Brickett Place Historic Site and he had some great suggestions for hyper-local hikes. Look for the Open flag on the left side of road when headed north from North Chatham on the New Hampshire side.
The Timberland Campground just west of Gilead is also a great resource for ice, firewood, snacks, and a bit of cell phone service.
After a long hike, I recommend going into Gorham, NH and sitting down at Mr. Pizza for a hearty meal. Nothing fancy, but a clean place with good food.
I like to go to the Pinkham Notch Visitor Center and talk to one of the rangers there; get the weather forecast and a hike suggestion.

Only comment is sites are a little close together

Great place for fall camping. Easy access from Maine Rt2. Quiet, well maintained camp sites with picnic tables and fire rings. Just like camping should be!
