Reservations are required at this campground. Walk-ins are not accepted.

The bluffs overlooking the Connecticut River give this park a perspective that is unique among others in the state park system.

There are many trails in the park, leading hikers across wooden bridges, over streams, along the 150 foot high bluff, or to the water's edge past a unique geological feature known as the "blowhole." One can sometimes hear the wind as it whistles past the bluff.

Outhouses, picnic tables, fire rings with cooking grate
