Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. At 70 feet the pull-throughs take long coaches.

A pond, picnicking, and planned activities fill the grounds, with a state park and off-road riding nearby. The treehouse accommodations are the standout.

The Blueberry gift shop is across the street, and the Ruggles House and Old School House are in the village. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. Blueberry season and the short Downeast summer both fill the park.

Moosehead Family Campground

24 RV Sites, 8 Tent Sites

Moosehead Family Campground in Greenville, ME, offers 24 RV sites and 8 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in two categories, back-in 20/30-amp and back-in 20/30/50-amp, each carrying water and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. A bathhouse with showers, a general store, a library, on-site dining, and a playground cover the essentials. Pets are welcome. The water access is what sets the place apart: a marina, boat docks, fishing guides working from the property, plus a pond, creek frontage, walking trails, sport courts, tennis, and basketball, with boating, kayaking, fishing, hiking, biking, and birding. Golf is nearby. The campground sits at 312 Moosehead Lake Road on Route 15, one mile south of Moosehead Lake and the town of Greenville — Maine's largest lake, the largest moose population in the lower 48, and the wilderness canoe routes of the Katahdin-Moosehead region. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Maine's short summer means July and August book far ahead.

Lunenburg RV Park and Campground

55 RV Sites

Lunenburg RV Park and Campground puts guests within walking distance of Old Town Lunenburg, Nova Scotia — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — with 55 RV sites carrying 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 70 feet. Full-hookup, water-and-electric, and dry camping categories are all available, on a campground owned and operated by a non-profit. Fifty-five back-in sites run in full-hookup, water-and-electric, and dry camping configurations, the serviced sites carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 70 feet, with site WiFi. A dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Worth knowing: the campground is run by a non-profit that also operates two visitor information centers in Lunenburg, and like many operators it has faced staffing pressures — patience with service levels goes a long way here. Pets are welcome. The walkable position is the whole proposition. Old Town Lunenburg's 18th-century British colonial grid, the brightly painted wooden buildings climbing the hillside above the harbor, the working fishing boats at the waterfront wharves, and the Bluenose II's tall ship presence make this one of the most authentically preserved historic maritime communities in North America — and you can reach all of it on foot from your site rather than driving in and hunting for parking. Lunenburg sits on Mahone Bay's southwest shore, the most visited and most photographed community in Nova Scotia after Peggy's Cove. The Nova Scotia season is short and concentrated. Summer is decisively the peak — reserve well ahead for July and August.

Jericho Gateway Family Campground

4 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites

Jericho Gateway Family Campground in Berlin, New Hampshire, offers four back-in RV sites without hookups and seven tent sites across 300 family-operated acres in the White Mountains, with a big-rig-friendly layout taking rigs up to 100 feet and a dump station on site. This is genuine dry camping at the northern gateway to the White Mountain National Forest. Four back-in sites operate without hookups, and the big-rig-friendly layout accommodates rigs to 100 feet — an unusual combination that suits large self-contained coaches. Seven tent sites cover simpler camping. A dump station serves RV guests, and firewood is available on site. Guests should arrive fully self-contained and plan water and power accordingly. The 300 acres are the amenity. Walking trails run the wooded property for hiking and biking, and the family operation means guests deal directly with the owners. The scale gives a real sense of remove that smaller White Mountain campgrounds cannot match. Pets are welcome. Berlin sits in Coos County on NH-16 at the confluence of the Dead and Androscoggin Rivers, 20 miles south of the Canadian border. The Androscoggin carries fishing and whitewater, the Mahoosuc Range offers some of the most demanding hiking in New England, and Dixville Notch's mountain pass is within reach. This is the edge of the Great North Woods, the largest unbroken forest in the northeastern United States. The campground serves the northern New Hampshire season. Summer hiking and fall foliage are the two peak windows, with foliage in late September and early October drawing heavily across the White Mountains. With four RV sites, reserve as far ahead as you can.

Bear's Pine Woods Campground

14 RV Sites, 3 RV Rental + Campsite Packages

Bear's Pine Woods Campground in Moultonborough, New Hampshire, offers 17 full-hookup RV sites on the wooded access road to Lake Winnipesaukee, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet behind a gated entrance. A 30/50-amp pull-through category joins a 30-amp back-in tier, with an outdoor pool, recreation center, game room, and nature trail. Seventeen sites run in 30/50-amp pull-through full hookup and 30-amp back-in full hookup categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two straightforward categories keep booking simple; note the 40-foot cap before bringing a larger rig. RV rentals round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a recreation center, game room, playground, walking trails, biking, swimming, and picnicking filling the rest. The dark Lakes Region sky makes for genuinely good stargazing. Pets are welcome. The setting is the appeal. The campground is surrounded by a state-managed forest and wildlife preserve, with a nature trail meandering through the pine woods down to Braun Bay on Lake Winnipesaukee — New Hampshire's largest lake at 72 square miles, with 250 islands and a shoreline that has drawn summer visitors for well over a century. Castle in the Clouds, the Loon Center, and Wolfeboro are close, with the White Mountains and the Kancamagus a short drive north. Summer is the season in the Lakes Region, with foliage drawing a strong late September and early October. Reserve well ahead for July and August.
