The best camping in Eastern Townships with swimming

·

In the Eastern Townships, swimming spots set the scene for camping—think clear lakes, quiet river bends, and easy access to the water’s edge. With over 210 campsites here tailored for swimmers, you’ll find the average night runs about $50, but it’s easy to snag a site for as little as $15. Locals head to Clyde River Camping (70 reviews) for riverside dips, or Willoughby Views Year Round Camp (42 reviews) for that sunrise swim. If you want something a bit different, Urban Regenerative Gardens (38 reviews) offers swimming tucked into a lush, permaculture landscape. Most sites allow campfires, pets, and have toilets—practical, not flashy. You’ll spot wildlife along the trails, and in winter, snow sports pick up where swimming leaves off. Bring your towel, your sense of adventure, and maybe a good mug for morning coffee by the water.

As private as private gets but only 6 miles to Newport Vt. There is a creek and a one acre pond (20 feet deep). It is all mixed hard and softwoods. It has some magnificent old growth trees 100 foot tall. There is a good rd that my friend has used with his Lincoln. Most any vehicle (car or Pickup)can get to the site. It gets a little tricky if you are pulling a trailer. A small one is OK but a large one - not so much....... The rd goes 1/2 mile to the rear of the land. Moose, deer and other critters visit too. We live 1/2 mile away from where you enter the woodlot. Our house is on Brownington Pond (200+ acres) & campers can use this site for swimming, boating & fishing.

This beautiful, historic property was one of the first to be settled in the early 1800s. The credited first settler in Charleston, Vermont; Abner Allyn and his family owned this farm for 100 years! Our family began restoring the farmhouse as well as beginning a small regenerative farming operation in 2022. Currently we have a small flock of broilers and layers, turkeys, ducks and guineas. Our birds are fed an organic feed local to Vermont and are pasture raised. Freya an Luna are the Great Pyrenees' about the farm. They protect the flocks from predators. They are working dogs and have access to the entire property. For this-and other reasons, we discourage bringing pets to the farm. A sweet brook meanders through the property which all sites have access to as well as stunning views of bald mountain. Lovely farm views throughout the seasons. Multiple trails for exploring can be found on and off farm. Trail heads to multiple mountains are within a few minutes of campsites. Lake Willoughby is a short 4 miles away, 7 miles to Island Pond, as well as endless hiking, biking, fishing, canoeing and more.

After driving the shoreline road of Lake Willoughby, the road to access the land is a steady climb to ..... feet. Stop and look behind you and you'll see the Western view of successive mountain ridges and Lake Willoughby. The immediate land and surround has been in the Cole family for generations and we are honored to be the next stewards of this parcel. We look forward to sharing the beauty of this area and this space with you. Learn more about this land: The cabin is located 3 miles and 1,700 feet up from Lake Willoughby in the Town of Westmore. We invite you to stay!  Looking behind as you drive up Coles Mountain to the land, you see views of Lake Willoughby and rolling mountains heading out to the horizon in the west.  Majestic.   Once you have traveled 3 miles and gone up 1,700 feet from Lake Willoughby, you cross a land bridge over a stream and enter a private clearing ringed with tress and forest.  This is an old orchard in the forest with an off-grid cabin.  Cozy surroundings.  Though you may hear others on surrounding properties, you don't see them.   Cross another stream and the land goes back another 10 acres into deep forest.  Magical. Outdoor activities throughout the area include hiking, skiing and mountain biking at Burke Mountain, Kingdom Trails Association, Craftsbury Outdoor Center and local Vermont State Parks, as well as kayaking, swimming, and fishing on Lake Willoughby.  Watch the sunset at Sentinel Rock.

After driving the shoreline road of Lake Willoughby, the road to access the land is a steady climb to ..... feet. Stop and look behind you and you'll see the Western view of successive mountain ridges and Lake Willoughby. The immediate land and surround has been in the Cole family for generations and we are honored to be the next stewards of this parcel. We look forward to sharing the beauty of this area and this space with you. Learn more about this land: The cabin is located 3 miles and 1,700 feet up from Lake Willoughby in the Town of Westmore. We invite you to stay!  Looking behind as you drive up Coles Mountain to the land, you see views of Lake Willoughby and rolling mountains heading out to the horizon in the west.  Majestic.   Once you have traveled 3 miles and gone up 1,700 feet from Lake Willoughby, you cross a land bridge over a stream and enter a private clearing ringed with tress and forest.  This is an old orchard in the forest with an off-grid cabin.  Cozy surroundings.  Though you may hear others on surrounding properties, you don't see them.   Cross another stream and the land goes back another 10 acres into deep forest.  Magical. Outdoor activities throughout the area include hiking, skiing and mountain biking at Burke Mountain, Kingdom Trails Association, Craftsbury Outdoor Center and local Vermont State Parks, as well as kayaking, swimming, and fishing on Lake Willoughby.  Watch the sunset at Sentinel Rock.
