Description

A backpack campsite on the west side of Great Meadow Brook Pond, Dawley Pond Shelter is available year-round, except in severe weather conditions. The site has a limited amount of Adirondack-type camp shelters, but it is still advisable to bring a tent should someone have beat you to the spot. Since many backpackers move through the region, it’s asked that, just like visiting in-laws, you limit your stay to one night.

This campsite is under the Connecticut DEEP and requires a permit. You will get a ticket if you do not have a permit. Primitive lean to site with fire ring and lean to but no other amenities. No picnic table and no toilets.
