We put together this guide to help you learn all you need to know about camping in Quechee State Park!
QUECHEE STATE PARK CAMPGROUND: OVERVIEW
Quechee State Park has one campground, which takes up a good portion of the park. In fact, most people that come to the park come for one of two things-they amazing views of the gorge, and camping!
The campground has plenty of spacious sites, and most are nestled in trees. None of the sites have views, and all are fairly private with fire rings and picnic tables.
The campground also has a large field for playing, super well kept facilities, a place for picnicking in general and access to plenty of hiking trails.
In addition to camping for tents and RV’s, there are also seven lean-tos and six cabins that are available.
This is a pretty popular campground, so be sure you get reservations well in advance. Of course you can always check for last minute cancelations, but when the campground is open the spots tend to fill up pretty well in advance.
