We stayed for two nights and enjoyed the quietness and location of the park. I spoke with a few other campers who had been there most of the season and learned there is a mix of seasonal and transient campers. The seasonal ones have some outdoor living spaces but nothing permanent which, in my opinion, keeps the campground more friendly appearing. The grounds are clean and the bath houses were as well. Not a 5 star on the bath houses but cleaner than many and well maintained. There is a good sized area for children to play and adults to congregate as well as a community center with games, puzzles, books etc.. There is no dog park but the Dana L Thompson Park is a few miles toward Manchester which is a large sports and walking complex. Other than the quick check-in I didn't speak with the owners but they have been there for quite a while and you can tell they run a good business. I would stay again. I hate to rate a 4/5 as it is a 4.5 for a solid, no frills, clean and comfortable location to stay.

We had a wonderful time staying at this RV park. The office couldn’t have been more helpful. Laundry facilities and bathrooms were well taken care of. We felt safe and all the campers were very kind. Dorset is a wonderful place to stay in Vermont. The Sunday coffee and apple cider donuts were the icing on the cake! Highly recommend!

Stayed two nights early September 2025.Site number 20 is almost level... Looked tight but our 43 ft class A with tow vehicle fit just fine. Good Wi-Fi. Quiet, lots of shade and chickens roaming around.

Stayed one night while traveling thru, nice RV Park, spaces a little tight for us(40 ft 5th Wheel), but doable. Easy access, right off VT 30.

One of our top favorite campsites in the area and all over Vermont! We always tent and cook gourmet. Appreciate the water, quiet, and the neat facilities. We love the store/front desk and got to buy one of Sharon’s artworks, a local artist. Didn’t try the cabins.
