One of a small number of campgrounds open year-round in New Hampshire, & we are so grateful for it! We've tent-camped here in the dead of winter, which was an adventure. 😆 And we stayed here in Spring, also. Pit toilets are closed in the "off season" but they have port-o-potties. Bear-proof dumpsters. Met the host our last trip; they are the nicest, friendliest campground host at any state (& national) park campground we've ever stayed at, & that includes others in NH, plus PA, VA, & NC. ✌️ Sites of various sizes nicely spaced. Love it!

Nicole was the best host I've had at Hancock in 11 years!! Thank you for making my stay absolutely awesome.!! Go to Hancock! A 1 off, off grid spot!

Extremely accessible location. Just a few miles beyond Lincoln and Loon mountain, and immediately after you enter the White Mountains National Forest. The campsites on the south side of the highway, especially those adjacent to the Pemigewasset River, are great. It's definitely not a family campground or State Park, the bathrooms are basic, no electricity, but it's a great launching point for hiking or exploring the river. The person staffing the campgrounds was friendly and it was nice having firewood that was dry and readily available, cash only.

Campground is located only 10 minutes from several shops and stores in the nearby area. Several of the campsites are located within view of the roaring river. Relaxing noise to hear during our stay. We have plans on returning another time, as this visit was awesome. Warning that weather is not predicable, so we were rained out. No interaction with any services as we did not see or speak with anyone from the campground. Beware, this is bear-country, so plan ahead. This 'city-dweller' is not used to seeing widlife larger than a squirrel.

This was the best way I could celebrate the New Year. I might have been there only one night but it was a nice, quiet night. My stay was on January 1st-to 2nd and the site was near the river. There might not be a better way to sleep on a cold, crisp night than to hear a river nearby. After a very busy and hectic couple weeks, it was wonderful to relax, cook on a fire, and enjoy the woods. It was revitalizing. I enjoyed this area so much that I am going back up tomorrow!
