Jellystone Park™ Glen Ellis
Glen, New Hampshire
128 RV Sites, 103 Cabins, 47 Tent Sites, 11 Glamping Sites, 5 Cottages
Jellystone Park at Glen Ellis in Glen, New Hampshire, overlooks the winding Ellis and Saco Rivers in the heart of the White Mountains, delivering the Yogi Bear brand's signature family resort camping experience in one of the most scenically dramatic and recreationally rich mountain environments in the eastern United States. Positioned at the gateway to the Mount Washington Valley—New Hampshire's premier four-season outdoor destination—the resort provides a comprehensive on-property amenity roster that serves families planning both active mountain exploration days and resort-focused leisure days without leaving the campground.
The resort's facility is built for extended family stays, with full hookup RV sites, a water park, outdoor pool, beach, golf cart rentals, jumping pillow, laser tag, sports courts, planned activities, and gold panning providing enough on-site programming to fill multiple days of activity without requiring any off-property excursion. Laundry, pavilions, dump station, and playground complete the practical infrastructure, and the Ellis and Saco Rivers' proximity adds the natural water element that mountain river camping in New Hampshire delivers as a constant ambient feature. The resort's social programming calendar—Yogi Bear character visits, themed weekends, and organized family activities—provides the structured entertainment that Jellystone guests expect from the brand's family resort model.
The White Mountains surrounding Glen encompass some of New England's most dramatic mountain terrain, including the Presidential Range's summits above 6,000 feet, the Kancamagus Highway's 34-mile scenic corridor through the White Mountain National Forest, and the network of trails and scenic drives that have made this corner of New Hampshire a destination for outdoor visitors since the nineteenth century. The Ellis River flows directly alongside the property from the Wildcat Mountain ski area above, providing a clear, cold mountain stream that gives the campground its natural acoustic backdrop and the sense of mountain-river immersion that distinguishes White Mountain camping from lowland alternatives.
Glen sits at the junction of US-302 and NH-16, the primary crossroads of the Mount Washington Valley, placing guests within minutes of Cranmore Mountain Resort, Attitash Mountain, and the Mount Washington Auto Road and Cog Railway that ascend to the summit of the Northeast's highest peak. Story Land, the beloved children's theme park operating in Glen since 1954, provides one of New England's most treasured family attraction experiences adjacent to the campground, and North Conway's factory outlet shopping district—one of the largest outlet shopping concentrations in northern New England—lies approximately 10 miles south. The Saco River's float trips from Conway to the campground area provide a gentle paddling option for families with younger children.
Jellystone Park at Glen Ellis operates seasonally from late spring through Columbus Day, with summer representing the peak family camping season when the water park runs at full capacity and the surrounding mountains deliver their most consistently accessible outdoor conditions. Fall foliage—which arrives in the White Mountains in late September and October in a display that attracts visitors from across the Northeast and beyond—creates the resort's second demand surge, with fall weekends filling well in advance of the season. The resort's combination of comprehensive family programming, White Mountain proximity, and New Hampshire river setting makes it one of the most versatile family camping destinations in the region.
