Beautiful, peaceful, private location on Mt. Kearsarge in Warner, NH. Vehicles can easily enter private driveway, room for camper van and class B but not large RV. Bordering Rollins State Park and Kearsarge Mtn. State Forest, that encompasses 3,893 acres that covers most of Mt. Kearsarge. My campsite is located at the historic property settled by the Watkins family in the early 1790's. Abner Watkins was a founding father of Warner and a soldier in the Revolutionary War serving under Ebenezer Webster, father of Daniel. They fought in the Battles of Bennington, Bunker Hill and Saratoga and came back victorious. Abner with his wife Ruth and family retired up here on the mountain and is buried at the small cemetery down the road. Enjoy this peaceful spot surrounded by beautiful oak, maple, birch, pine, hemlock and ash trees. Abundant wildlife lives on the mountain including deer, moose, bear, bobcat and turkeys. Plenty of shade and a new picnic table. Right next door is the Rollins State Park toll gate to drive up Mt. Kearsarge and also access to miles of hiking trails. New 8’ X 11’ tent on raised platform. Fire pit (when permitted) with plenty of firewood. New clean outhouse and fresh water from nearby faucet.This is a beautiful new campsite with a ready-to-camp 8' X 11' tent on a platform. Enough parking for 2 cars and a nice campfire pit (when permitted). Abundant firewood for gathering. About 2 acres to yourself for roaming but next to thousands of acres of state park and state forest land. Nice new outhouse for all your needs! Water hose for drinking etc. just a few feet from the site (seasonal). Solar panels provide enough power for a light in the tent and for device charging or air pump. AC power strip inside the tent (max. 200 watts). Picnic table and information board with trail maps and more. Close to hundreds of miles of hiking trails on Mt. Kearsarge. Please take waste away and leave no trace.

Ed was so sweet and responded very quickly to my messages. The site was perfect and clean! Having access to a power strip and water hose felt luxurious! The site was private on a dead end road. 11/10 site! Already planning on when to come back

Watkins Woods Private Mt. Campsite
Ed was such a hospitable host. He thought of so many details that really added to the space: a beautiful and clean outhouse, a solar powered power strip in the tent with a lamp & phone charger, covering wood for us before it rained, etc. the tent platform was awesome! So clean and dry.

This was a beautifully done site! The outhouse was beautiful and clean! The host was so incredibly kind and even left a bouquet of flowers on the picnic table! We are already planning another trip here!
