GenieSummary

What others are saying about this campground
Gilson Pond Campground is a great place to stay for those looking to explore the trails of Mount Monadnock. With a decent bathhouse, a small playground, and a loop trail around Gilson Pond, there is plenty to do. The camp store/office may be closed due to fund cut backs, but you can still enjoy the 3,600 foot peak of Mount Monadnock or take a gentle, shorter pond walk. Be aware that dogs are not allowed in Monadnock State Park and that wood for a fire can only be purchased from the camp store. The campground is a bit remote and the edge of the site drops off a small ledge of boulders, so be prepared to do a 134 point turn in order to get the tow vehicle back out.
