The best dog-friendly camping in New Hampshire

·

Let your pup pull up around the fire pit alongside you next time you head out on a camping adventure by finding yourself a dog-friendly campground, a pet-friendly cabin, campsite, or glamping experience in the heart of New Hampshire. It can be tough to find pet-friendly hotels in popular destinations, but camping in one of New Hampshire's private, state park, or national forest campgrounds is a much more cat- and dog-friendly way to travel. Lots of camping areas have all the amenities—bathhouses, wifi, RV site hookups, swimming pools, and even dog parks. Your crew of happy campers will love the relaxing New England scenery close to scenic hiking trails and New Hampshire's White Mountain National Forest. The friendly nature of campground pet policies at camping resorts with RV sites, cabin vacation rentals, yurts, and tent sites will have you kicking off your shoes the minute you check-in.

3 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Lancaster, NH
Nestled on the shoulder of Mount Cabot (4180'), our hillside yurt has a stunning vista of the Connecticut River Valley, with Mt. Lafayette to the south and the Green Mountains to the west. Decompress with a hot outdoor shower and cook over the outdoor firepit as the sun blazes toward the horizon, and look up through the yurt's skylight as you revel in spacious night among the stars. The yurt is grid-powered, the stars aren't. Note: Our wood-fired hot tub takes 48 hours notice for us to make it perfectly hot for you, so please reach out to book it before you arrive! For an even more immersive nature experience, The Orchard on Apple Hill road is ready for your tent or hammock, along with an outdoor kitchen, two hot showers and compost toilets, picnic tables and firepit, and propane cooking burners. The Orchard's solar kit can charge your equipment and boil a kettle for your hot morning cup. The Pond on The Hillside is open to guests for swimming or skating at the case may be. Firewood is included with all sites, so please don't travel with firewood as it's a great way to transport forest-devastating invasive insects. Hikers are welcome to wander along old logging roads through our sugarbush, and along trails throughout the remainder of the property (300+ ac. total) where there are numerous springs and creeks, mystical softwoods, expansive grassy fields, and a wild apple orchard. Moose, deer, and bear tracks are common, but animal encounters are not - still, please sequester your food accordingly and be mindful to carry out scraps or place them in lidded containers provided. Reach out to us to reserve a few precious hours in our wood-fired hot tub, rent snowshoes, or schedule a maple tour and tasting at our saphouse. Please visit meadhillatmountcabot.com to design your own celebration on this delicious land.

Red Heart Farm

Escape to the Country — Horse Boarding, RV & Tent-Friendly Stay on 17 Acres Welcome to our peaceful 17-acre farm in charming Dunbarton, New Hampshire. Whether you’re traveling with your horse, an RV, or a tent, you’ll find a welcoming spot to rest, recharge, and enjoy the outdoors. We offer overnight horse boarding in clean, comfortable stalls with access to a full indoor riding arena — perfect rain or shine. We’re a farm… without animals. So basically, it’s just land with commitment issues. That said, wildlife like bears occasionally show up to remind us who’s really in charge. Bring your RV or pitch your tent under the stars and soak in the quiet, natural beauty that surrounds you. Just minutes away, explore scenic Clough State Park or hit the trails at the Hopkinton-Everett Riding Area — one of the largest off-road riding systems in New England. Whether you’re here to ride, relax, or simply unplug, this is your home away from home in the countryside. Quick heads-up: Cell service is limited here. If the lower barn space is open, you’re welcome to hook up there during your stay. Also, note that you’ll be entering the White Mountain region, where the roads can be a bit challenging — but totally manageable for big rigs. We have one ourselves and do just fine, so no worries — it’s absolutely doable!
