Smugglers Notch State Park Campground

If you are towing a trailer and plan on visiting this campground do not approach it from the north using Highway 108 because that route will take you through a one hundred yard long, very tight single lane, two way road that is Smugglers Notch. Don't ask me how I know!

There is a southern approach to this campground using the same Highway 108 that does not require going through The Notch. You will see warning signs against proceeding with a semi-tractor trailer truck, probably due to some very steep road grades, but it is entirely doable with an adequately power pickup truck.

The campground is very well maintained. Clean restrooms and pay showers so bring some quarters. There is a nature trail around the campground and a very nearby waterfall hike.

Our only ding against this campground is the fact they have a sizable mouse population. We spent the next week evicting five mice from our trailer. They were our first and hopefully last uninvited guests after being on the road full-time for over two years and visiting 147 different campsites.

We stayed in a lean to. It was nice because it rained a little. The sites are private, clean, and in the woods. The bathrooms are spotless and even have house plants for decoration. The whole campground is so well taken care of! There are little gardens around with flowers blooming. And the whole place is so clean!
We visited Smugglers Notch to rock climb.
