The full hook up sites are without shade and are typically close together but not completely level. WIFI was good. Laundry was clean and had two small washers and two dryers. Very convenient to Franconia and the State Park.

Stayed two nights in Aug 2022 - Overall, not too bad, a little dated and dumpsters were overflowing. We did not use the bathhouse. Roads were mostly gravel and not in the best shape.
WiFi does not reach throughout the campground, so if you’re in the back, which is where the shaded, nicer RV and tent sites are, don’t expect coverage. We had a large, shaded, level site by the creek. The full hookup sites are very close together in an open field; I personally would not enjoy one of those sites.
T-Mobile cell coverage was 1 bar LTE throughout most of the campground.
If we are in this area again we would probably look for a different campground.

Clean washrooms, although the stalls are cramped.

We did not plan to stay here but we had such a nice experience! We came in at dinner time hoping they had room for us because we were scrambling and they were so kind and helpful. We needed a 4 night stay, so we took the 2 night cancelation they had and planned to move sites for the next 2 nights. They moved some things around so we didn't even need to switch sites. We had such nice interactions with the staff and owners.
Like another reviewer mentioned, cell signal is not great (in this entire general area) but the campground wifi was very helpful.
The campground is really convenient for Franconia Notch! There are both wooded/private sites and open field FHU sites. It's not a large campground, so it doesn't have all the amenities like a pool that an RV resort would have, but it was a great basecamp for us!

The smaller, wooded sites looked really cute and we'd love to be able to stay there, but our size would not allow for that so we had to stay in the open field, full hookup portion of the campground. There's no privacy between sites where we stayed, no pool, mini golf was $2 per person and that was....interesting. The brook running behind the campground was very shallow - not sure where people were floating on tubes in previous photos. Overall, kids were bored with lack of amenities but the new owners were nice and the campground was VERY quiet at night, so that was great.

We stayed here a few years ago now, but we absolutely loved the campground. Everyone was very friendly and helpful as it was our first time out in our travel trailer. Level sites with FHU around some of the seasonal sites, so during the week we were pretty much by ourselves!! The location is perfect to explore the surrounding area!

We scored by being planted into site T-18A, which is a weird little corner type FHU (50A, H20, Sewer) in the RV/Trailer area of the campground. This site provided privacy out our front door. It was across from the dump station, but this was rarely used and didn't create any distraction in terms of sound or smell.
The management/owner was friendly and professional. We checked ourselves in, which was quick and convenient. He popped through to make sure all was well a bit after we parked.
This campground definitely has distinct areas, but all of it is well 'natured'. The RV/trailer sites (sites between the dump station and the office) are more 'open field' style lots and provide mostly FHU. This is also the area where seasonals seem to be dwelling, although you can really only tell this by way of many of these trailers having wooden staircases or a bit more permanent style gardening - this is definitely not a full-time housing situation.
The park was incredibly quiet at night; the only noise might come from your neighbor's heating or AC system if you're near to one.
The back of the park features partial-hookup and no-hook-up sites which are just plain lovely. They're all wooded, so solar wouldn't be an option, but they provide awesome privacy.
There are trails exiting the back of the park which will take you into town or connect you with larger trail systems.
Verizon & AT&T were not optimal here, but we were able to utilize Verizon when the campground Wi-Fi failed. That being said, the campground Wi-Fi was typically pretty usable - even to stream on.
100% would stay here again!

We booked a full hookup site. That was a mistake. As a past reviewer indicated, the spots are very close with zero privacy. The people behind us were less than 10 ft from the rig with a campfire. Lot of people that appear to have been here for a while.
Luckily there was another site available in the forest portion of the site.
The difference was night and day. We went from being surrounded by RV's in close proximity, to being surrounded by trees in close proximity. After being moved our stay here was enjoyable. It was very quiet. The tent portion of the campground, runs right along the creek. The most beautiful tent camping sites I've ever seen.
Only two washers and two dryers, fortunately for us the place wasn't that busy so we didn't have to wait long.
During out stay the office wasn't open during the week. Just a bunch of check-in slips hanging from the door. We found this to be a bit unprofessional seeing as how the hosts/owners live on the site. I feel that during business hours, someone should be in the office area (since it's also a store and they offering things for purchase).
Great proximity to Franconia Notch, and Littleton is 15 mins North and has all the supplies you would need.
The internet here is awful, and never worked. The WIFI continually dropped off, from both of the sites that we stayed in. If you need this for work, I would certainly not depend on it.
We would stay here again, but only if we could get a forest site. That is, any of the E&W spots on their site. DO NOT book a full hookup if you value your privacy.

The campground is near Franconia Notch State Park (7 miles to the Flume Gorge) and also only a one-half hour drive to the Cog Railway on Mount Washington. It is also close to Littleton, NH which was a very pretty small town. The sites by the stream are large and quite isolated and well kept. The only drawback is the WiFi system which does not function down by the stream. We were fine using our own hotspot in that location. All in all, one of the nicest campgrounds we have used.

“owner refused to refund my reservation when I had to cancel due to Surgury”
noted 5/26/2022
Mr. and Mrs Yuvi the owners were rude and refused to refund my deposit when we had to cancel our reservation due to an unplanned Surgury that arose out of nowhere. I explained that the cancellation was due to a medical issue and he did not care and charged me one nights rental when I made the cancellation. I had cancel 8 reservations and Franstead family campground was the only campground refusing to refund in full. We will never stay at this greedy owner campground who had 3 months to rebook our cancelled site.
