Grand Isle State Park
Fri to Sun: 8:00am – 10:00pm
As the name would suggest, Grand Isle State Park is located on an island. Of all the islands on Lake Champlain its home, South Hero, is the beefiest of the bunch, at 14 miles long and 3 miles wide. Not to worry, no paddling is necessary to get there. The park is easily accessible from Route 2, which runs right through South Hero and is only a 1/2-hour drive from Burlington. Grand Isle has the second largest state campground in Vermont, hosting hella tent and RV sites, lean-to sites, and a few sweet cabin sites. Of its 226 acres, 4,150 feet run along the lake’s pristine shoreline where there are endless opportunities for recreation and relaxation.
And if you’re more into the idea of “getting away,” but actually have a millennial meltdown if you don’t check your ‘Gram every hour, then you’ll love Grand Isle! Equipped with

When to Go
The Grand Isle State Park Campground is open from mid-May through mid-October. The park remains open the rest of the year but services are limited. July and August are the best time for camping, biking, and watersports on Lake Champlain weatherwise but it’s also the busiest season. Fall is also a great time to visit if you come prepared for chilly nights. Fall colors tend to peak between late September and mid-October. In winter, the road to the boat launch is plowed to provide ice fishing access.
