Ashuelot River Campground in the United States

Easy access site, riverside electric 30A and water. Nice people. Great for pets. They have pet poo drop boxes and bags. Super clean bathrooms. The sites are not very private, but spacing is decent. Getting there you have to follow directions on their website to avoid the two low covered bridges. UScellular coverage 3 bars.

This is a great campground run by great folks, Chuck and Laura Mills. There is a central bathouse and dump station, and while two RV sites are full hookups, most are electric and water. Tent sites are also available, plus three small cabins. Amenities include a big rec room with pool table, ping-pong, and foosball, a small wi-fi game and reading room stocked with books, and enormous green areas for playing field games. The grounds are along the Ashuelot River, and the hosts offer a livery service for canoe and kayak floats along the river. If you didn't bring a boat, they have some to lend. Access to all the sites is easy, although the surrounding community has several covered bridges in everyday use that do not allow trailers or campers to go through. So don't follow your GPS to get there, but rather call and ask Chuck the best way to drive your large RV or trailer/camper to the site. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and wish we had had time to do more river-explorations. Our main activity was to hop on our bikes and explore the Ashuelot River Rail to Trail path up to Keene, and to poke around the small university city of Keene. There is another Rail to Trail that we tried, The Cheshire Trail, that shows it is bike-ready, but really is not, except for mountain bikes. Especially if you're there when the area has been experiencing rain, stay off the Cheshire trail until they get the ATVs and motorized dirt bikes excluded from having access.

Awesome campground with two of the greatest host/owners Chuck and Laura. We have been coming here for years and always enjoy the time spent here. Beautiful river to float down or paddle up. Saw a bald eagle this past weekend while paddling up past the campground. Some site on the river,some in the woods and some in a field.

Our first stay at Ashuelot (pronounced "ash-wee-lot) River. We stayed in a water and electric site along the back of the big field. There are no trees separating the sites - all wide open - but it wasn't full when we were here and we had sites on either side open. Caught morning sun which was lovely. Big rolling field along the river fun for kids and picnics. Easy access to the Cheshire Rail Trail from the campground. Rail Trail is 6 miles to downtown Keene, a very nice little town (20,000) with a college which means coffee shops and great restaurants. This is a great base for exploring western NH, Mount Monadnock, and eastern Vermont town of Brattleboro. We will be back.

Labor Day weekend and the second time we have booked here . What a friendly clean and relaxing place. We have a motor home and my daughter and her family of 4 joined us and there was plenty of room on our site for there tent and to play games. . My husband played in the horse shoe tournament there and it's only a short drive , we also found a race track there for Saturday night entertainment . The kids rented a conue there and spent a few hours rowing with a little unexpected swim lol but had a blast . We have already booked for next year and can't wait . If your looking for clean friendly relaxing times this is definitely the place for you . Funny one morning while walking I said good morning to the owner and he said good morning Mary , I said do you remember everyone's name he said yes the important ones , well that makes a big difference when they are packed and still remember your name. If your reading this well then I hope to see you there next year 2017. Until then good by
