Campgrounds - NH Statewide

Campgrounds with very reasonable rates for family vacations operate at state parks and state forests in all regions of New Hampshire (there is even one along New Hampshire’s small portion of Atlantic beach front, at Hampton Beach State Park). In addition, NH has several private campgrounds with nearby lakes, water sports, and fishing. Campgrounds offer a wide variety of amenities in terms of bathrooms, showers, dumping and hookups. Also, accessibility to nearby fishing, hunting and other outdoor sports varies widely. Be sure to contact individual campgrounds for detailed information on accommodations and nearby attractions.

Stay at flight park’s expansive campground and extend your fun several days

Why just spend one day at the Morningside Flight Park when you can spend several? The park offers an expansive camping area amid an old-growth forest on the back side of the training hill. Bring your own tent and pitch it on a site with beautiful views of the Connecticut River Valley, with a kitchen and bathhouse close by. Or, stay in a platform cabin (perfect for two). For bigger groups, up to six people, ask about The Castle, the summit cabin with large windows and a deck for watching glider launches and gorgeous sunsets. Activities near the campground include swimming and fishing ponds, playing fields, a picnic area and fire pits. And, of course, there are laser-tag games, zip lines and plenty of hang gliding and paragliding!
