Craiger12 Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 I know of a few in CT, but that's pretty far from Maine. Let me know if you are interested. Quote

Super User Fishing Rhino Posted December 12, 2011 Super User Posted December 12, 2011 What kind of camping, tent, pop-up camper, trailer, RV? You can check out a variety of parks and campgrounds here. http://www.mass.gov/dcr/forparks.htm Quote
Super User Fishing Rhino Posted December 12, 2011 Super User Posted December 12, 2011 I would love to find a place a remote area in New England that you can camp but only get there by boat. Sort of like backpacking only via the water and not trails. - tate Sounds like a tent camping deal to me. I'm thinking it would be more suitable for canoes, jon boats, kayaks, etc. They can be hauled out of the water onto the beach. Larger boats would require a sheltered cove, or a protected sandy beach. There may be some with a dock that are accessible only by water. Sounds interesting for sure. I have a new tent and sleeping bags.edit: I know a guy who has a nice, portable, stainless steel grille that is perfectly suited to this scenario. Don't forget the horseradish cheddar. Quote
tate Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 I think we actually saw one of the lean-to sites on Knight Island. Knight Island State Park Also on Lake Champlain in St. Albans Bay, Knight Island has long been a favorite for those looking to get away from it all. Accessible only by boat, Knight Island has 1 tent site and 6 lean-tos, all very secluded. Woods Island State Park Approximately 2.5 miles from Burton Island, Woods Island has 5 secluded tent sites around the island. Quote
Craiger12 Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Waramaug State Park - on lake Waramaug and located in Kent, CT I think (there are 4 towns that border the lake and I'm not sure which one the state park is in). It is a beautiful lake and currently my favorite lake in CT. Kettletown State Park - on lake Zoar and located in Southbury, CT. Lake Zoar is park of the Housatonic River system so there is a decent Smallmouth population. I have been camping at Zoar since I was a small child and have taken my boat the past few years. There is a public state launch with plenty of parking. I haven't done any camping at Waramaug, but the launch only has about 8 parking spots and it's first come first serve. Quote
jaays32 Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Cove Campground in Center Conway NH. The only campground on Conway Lake. Great place on a great lake. Private launch, extra parking for your trailer and plenty of on the water sites. We usually head up for the spawn and have a blast. Quote
BrianSnat Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Give Grout Pond in southern Vermont a try. http://www.hookandbullet.com/fishing-grout-pond-manchester-vt/ http://freecampsites.net/grout-pond/ Quote
