We loved everything about Fransted Family Campground! The location was perfect for exploring the beautiful White Mountains region. From our first communication with the owners, we knew this was a special place. They have put so much thought into every aspect of their guests’ experience. We checked in at the parking lot and were even able to get a quick propane fill at the same time. We were led to our site and checked in to make sure everything was just right. Firewood we purchased at check in was delivered to our site just minutes later.
We have been traveling in our class C RV part time for the last few years and this was one of our most peaceful, quiet campground stays. As stargazing fans, we were especially excited and appreciative of the fact that they ask guest to turn off outside lights after 10:00pm for optimum dark skies. Amazing! Especially with the Neowise comet in the sky!
On our first morning we headed to the office to get some info on hiking, local spots for blueberry picking, and general area info. Karen and Gregg were so helpful and shared so many great things with us—making our time in New Hampshire so memorable! We can’t thank them enough and eagerly look forward to a return stay.
On a final note, travel in Covid times has been a little scary, especially at some campgrounds where mask wearing was not enforced. Fransted did an excellent job making us feel safe, taking every precaution for protection. From the parking lot check-in, all staff wearing masks, to sign up for laundry use so that we had it to ourselves and it could be cleaned between users...excellent!!
The only thing we will do differently next time is request a riverfront site with electric/water rather than the full hookup in the middle of the campground. To be able to near the sound of the water would have made this spectacular stay even better!

Wow! We really love this campground. We lucked into one of the best sites here, and had no problem getting our 38’ motor home into it. Big living space with a nice fire pit and picnic table. We need blocks under our front tires, but that wasn’t a big deal. We had a 50 amp, full hookup, so we didn’t use the bathhouses. Some things were closed because of Covid, but the store and river were accessible.
For check in, they set up a table outside and wear masks. We were escorted to our site, which is always nice. The River was a short walk from our site, it’s really pretty down there. The water was low, but some people managed to do a little tubing. The tent sites across the river are really nice! Almost made we want to tent!
The sites we liked best were tucked in the trees, but those might be difficult for larger rigs. There are a few sites, off the main roads, that have trees and could fit a larger rig. Other sites are in a big field, not where I would want to be.
My AT&T phone had 1-2 bars and sometimes LTE, sometimes 3G. In general, we had trouble with AT&T, but sometimes we could stream. We have a hotspot with an antenna, but it was connecting to Northeast wireless and then would just disconnect all together. Our Verizon hotspot, with an antenna, was showing 3 bars and LTE, but was also unreliable at times. Same goes for the park internet. We were constantly changing between them as one would stop working.
My only real complaint is that they required masks to enter the store, but when we went in four people, I think they all work there, were not wearing masks. And, every time we went back, they weren’t wearing masks. But, eventually that won’t be an issue and won’t affect my rating.

Located in a gorgeous area, this is a friendly family park with lots of open green areas and opportunities for play. Sites are large, gravel and level, mostly in a lawn area, a few tucked among tall trees. Each site has a fire ring and a wooden picnic table.
Wifi is better in some spots than others, but where it is good, it works well.
There is a baseball field, mini golf, a big pavilion, and games. Laundry and bathhouses are clean and laundry prices are reasonable. No charge for showers (pay showers are apparently common around here).
They're serious about quiet hours - lights out after 10 pm.
A stream runs through it and has a lazy river you can inner tube down when the water is high enough.
The small town is about a mile away, with a few restaurants and a grocery store. Small store on site.

We chose Fransted after a poor experience at Lost River in Woodstock NH. This property is one of the most beautiful we’ve visited. Great amenities- laundry, propane, full hook ups
Access to Trails from the property. Great suggestions from the owners for area exploration

I found this park to be the same as the National parks camping. Next time I would camp in the NF with wide sites and privacy between sites. I dont mind pulling out the generator if I need to.
Pro’s:
4 miles close to State Park
Clean and maintained average park
Stream runs in the back of park. Which I found had the better sites.
Con’s:
Overpriced for an average RV Park
Public bathrooms are very small (knees and elbows close to walls)
Lots of rules-at times Your talked down to as a 4 yr child by management.
Full hooks are found in the center of park, very close together. No privacy between sites.
Sewer connection sits high (be sure to raise your hose)
If you need to use the dump station-the connections are on the wrong side of your RV on a ONE Way driveway loop.

We loved this campground! Our site was the icing on the cake…it was fabulous! This campground is an ideal destination for exploring the White Mountains and Franconia Notch State Park. It is an easy 5-15 minute drive to several fantastic hiking spots. Our site was perfectly wooded and private and the trees were well groomed for big rigs. There were also many camp sites in the center of a large loop that was open, sunny and tree-free for those concerned with satellite signals. The tents sites in the back of the park looked fabulous. The bath house and laundry were clean and tidy. Our family includes 2 tweens and a teen and we thoroughly enjoyed the variety of playground equipment and sport facilities (volleyball, softball, soccer, horseshoes, etc.). One of the highlights of this campground is the small river for tubing. The campground has tubes for the kids to use at no charge. This park scores very high on my rating list as is is very family friendly and they do not nickel and dime you for everything. We loved that the kids could play with everything for free anytime they wanted to. My kids had so much fun here that it was hard to get them to leave the campground to explore…but the area is gorgeous and one of the most beautiful mountain areas we have seen in 27 states! They have a small well-stocked store and an efficient family-run office. The customer service was amazing. This campground is well established and popular so make reservations early when you can.
