Constant noise from the roadway. If your hoping for a quiet peaceful stay go elsewhere. Wood $8 for a small bundle, shower $2.50 for 6 mins and you cant adjust the temperature but it is a comfortable shower. NOT WORTH $30 a night. I can get water and electricity in CT for $30 a night.

Great camping park close to many attractions

Super convenient base location for WMNF adventures! Very basic campground, no frills, but well spaced sites, quiet, and clean. The hosts this year, Mati and her husband, are doing a wonderful job maintaining the grounds and keeping the restrooms clean and stocked.

A beautiful spot in the woods of New Hampshire. Super quiet, large, level sites with a really awesome staff.
@KristenR130562 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #41
The sites are spacious and evenly spread out so you aren't on top of others. The hosts were so friendly and helpful. I found it tough to back in since the road is a figure 8, so all curves & a narrow road. They were nice enough to let me change sites to one that I could easily back into. Backing in is not my strong suit, so I am sure anyone else would have had no issues! Great location.

Wonderful quiet site on the back of the loop.
@JohnE3306958 · Camped on Jul 19, 2024 at Campsite #45
Sites are large and separated from your neighbor. Would return for another time.
@LindaM3264387 · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #50
Beautiful campground. Helpful camp hosts, but one of the hosts didn't know much about the area, this is his first year there. He did point out some spots on the map and we checked into those places and were not disappointed! Even though we did not use the showers, it would have been helpful to know that the showers are metered and use quarters $$. The recycling dumpster probably had not been emptied yet this year, and it was quite full of trash, ashes, etc, not recycling. I will recommend this campground to my family and friends.
@JensBC56C753D0 · Camped on Sep 2, 2023 at Campsite #48
There was running water - hot - in the bathrooms. Only one building with showers - coin operated - in the west loop. Probably 1/4 mile from the campsites on the far side of the east loop. In the east loop there are 26 sites. Only one bathroom with 1 toilet for men and two toilets for women. This did not seem to be enough - especially during high operation times in the morning or evening. The feel of the campground is "old and tired". It could use some TLC with more johns and upgrade to the facility. The campground hosts were wonderful and attentive. For a beautiful Labor Day weekend, it was relatively quiet - which was very nice.
@RebeccaR559280 · Camped on Aug 24, 2023 at Campsite #48
The sites are large and well-drained -- just as well as we had a lot of rain. There was some road noise, but nothing too bad. The picnic tables are massive - about 12 feet long! The bathrooms were basic and older, but clean and functional - bring your own soap and towel. The showers were just fine - good hot water and good water pressure - bring $2.50 in quarters. The location is great for hiking and exploring the western side of the Whites.
@KevinM8804744 · Camped on Aug 18, 2023 at Campsite #58
The site was clean. Very easy to get to and relatively quiet. Have visited multiple times and enjoyed each visit
@Christina63842 · Camped on Aug 15, 2023 at Campsite #55
It was very nice other than our neighbors had children all night screaming and crying disrupting nature.
@SteeveLD7AFD66 · Camped on Jul 21, 2023 at Campsite #57
The price of the shower was too expensive, theres no soap in the bathroom, no firewood available.
@Bridgette22C0E · Camped on Jun 23, 2023 at Campsite #42
Nice semi quiet campground. I say semi quiet cause you are a little close to the main road where you can easily see and hear passing traffic if you are camping at a site that is on the front half of the circles. Thankfully there wasn't a whole lot of traffic to ruin the trip, especially at night when it was time to sleep. My only recommendation, for trailer and RV campers, is not to reserve site 42. Even though the site says that trailers and RV/Motor homes are alowable equipment you will find that you will have a difficult to near impossible time , pending the size of your trailer or RV and your comfort level/skill towing, getting into the site due to the campground road being narrow and 2 wide trees rooted right in front of the site driveway on the opposite side of the road. If the trees were not where they were, site would be perfect for trailers and RVs.

Rustic experience, as advertised. Very easy access and close to Compton which has restaurants, gas, supplies, et al. I wish we had known the water available wouldn't fit a hose to fill our fresh water tank; I'd have filled before getting there. Otherwise, a good experience.
@michaelg734741 · Camped on Aug 19, 2022 at Campsite #34
Stay at site 34 for one quick night and was very please with my first stay at Campton. Everyone in the area was friendly and the campsite was clean and well cared for. Firewood purchased was a little wet and there was some light noise from the nearby road from our campsite. Overall I would stay here again.
@LorettaJ928126 · Camped on Aug 15, 2022 at Campsite #58
The host were very helpful. They suggested Welsch-Dickey as a day hike with great views and this was a great suggestion! 4.5 miles 1800' elevation change well worth the effort and sore muscles. Had to help our 2 golden retrievers up a couple of the rocks.
@Christoph63310 · Camped on Aug 5, 2022 at Campsite #44
Very happy with my experience at the campground!
@KarenM8822647 · Camped on Jul 19, 2022 at Campsite #33
Very rustic. Not a value for $30. The campground was not well cared for, we left early. Probably the starkest campground we have stayed at, the bathrooms were not maintained. We aren’t fussy but this place could use an infusion of TLC
@RichS5238453 · Camped on Jul 8, 2022 at Campsite #42
Great little campground. Clean toilets and showers. The toilets should have soap and a hand dryer. There is electrical so it wouldn’t be much to add the blow dryers. Site was good for being closer to the road. Site 42. Good mix of young people and seasoned camping veterans. Would definitely go again
@TonyD6509610 · Camped on Jun 24, 2022 at Campsite #35
The campground is adequate. The sites are large and well spaced. However there is no dump station and we would not know where to fill our water tank except for the help of the Host and a pair of pliers. Highway noise bothered us some.
Lincoln was a great place to get supplies. The staff at the Lincoln visitor center were very helpful.

Tree trimming maintenance needed.

Hot showers are 5-6 minutes for $2.50 quarters.

Great campground, clean facilities though I did not get to check out the showers on this visit.

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.
