Many people head up to New England in the fall to enjoy cooler temperatures and the changing foliage. For many, there is something special about camping in New England during the fall. We have traveled through the area with our home base in New England many times. Here we share five great family-friendly New England RV parks we have visited.

Benefits of A New England RV Road Trip
New England makes up the northeast corner of the United States. This beautiful region is revered as the birthplace of America. Of course, what better way to explore world-changing history than in the comfort and convenience of an RV?
In addition, each season of the year offers unique things to see and do. Although many may believe that the first snow of winter may be beautiful, we recommend a New England road trip anytime between spring through fall. Many RVers choose New England in the fall to enjoy the cooler temperatures and the changing scenery as the foliage changes colors.
In spring and summer, the coast is a top destination. The coastline is filled with amazing beaches to take advantage of during the summer to escape high temperatures.
Each New England state is rich in American history and offers many opportunities for learning.
Traveling to New England by RV will allow you to witness the small New England towns and the region’s beauty. All of these New England RV parks are family-friendly and offer several ways to enjoy New England.
Moose Hillock Camping Resort, NH.
96 Batchelder Brook Rd, Warren, NH
This campground has everything you think of when you think of outdoor camping. Lots of woods, hiking trails, kids running around everywhere having fun, campfires in the evening, lots of tents, and families making great memories.
Of course, being in the woods, there is no wifi or cell service. Which in our opinion, is not a horrible thing. Yet there is also one vastly different aspect to this campground. Their pool has a large Spanish Galleon with water slides and guns. The pool was certainly the highlight, and it even has a snack bar if you need to grab a few bites.
For several reasons, this is our favorite family-friendly New England RV park. The park is well maintained, offers fantastic scenery, and there is always something to do for the entire family. Can learn all about this park on our Mosse Hillock blog post.
Normandy Farms Campground, MA.
72 West St, Foxborough, MA
If luxury RV glamping is your style, then Normandy Farms Family Camping Resort in Foxborough, Massachusetts, needs to be at the top of your list. This park is often ranked one of America’s top New England RV parks
The RV park is in the woods between Boston & Cape Cod. It is a luxury camping destination that has been widely recognized as one of the premier resorts in the world.
Normandy Farms has a vast assortment of activity centers and four separate swimming pools. Without question, there is something for everyone here. In addition, it is a quick 5 miles from Gillette Stadium and Patriot Place.
Spacious Skies Campgrounds – Minute Man, MA.
264 Ayer Rd, Littleton, MA
Spacious Skies Campgrounds – Minute Man is a small campground nestled in the woods in Littleton, Mass. A mixture of Rv sites and tent sites spread throughout the campground. We had RVs on both sides and tents right behind us. Much like many other campgrounds, there was a small camp store with the few odds and ends you may need while camping.
They have clean bathhouses that offer clean showers as well. There is also a small pool that kept us busy. It’s small but just the right size to cool off in the afternoons. Regarding activities, there is a recreation area with a basketball hoop, a bocce court, and some horseshoes.
The Minute Man National Historical Park is a quick 20-minute trip from the park. This great NPS location shares the history of the Revolutionary Wars, beginning in Concord and Lexington, Ma. Be sure to read our Boston National Park Sites post to find some great things to do while visiting Boston.
The Campgrounds web page has much more information regarding a visit. We spent two nights here and had no complaints. If you are looking for a true Rv campground, this may not be what you want. There were more tents and families spread throughout the campground with the assorted RVs. However, this is certainly a valid option if you are looking for a nice getaway not far from Boston.
Brookwood RV Resort, NY
133 NY-9N, Ticonderoga, NY
The Brookwood Rv Resort is a small RV park. If you are looking for an RV park to set up camp, stay for a few days, and relax, this may not be the place. However, if you are looking for adventure with your family in the picturesque Adirondack mountains, Brookwood Rv park is perfect.
It is located along the northern edge of Lake Geoge and is within driving distance of the Lake. Lake George offers numerous kayak, canoe, and other outdoor adventures to enjoy with your family,
If looking for outdoor adventure the Adirondack Extreme Adventure Course & Zipline Park is a half-hour drive from the park. You can learn some great history as well at Fort Ticonderoga which is less than 10 miles from the RV park.
The staff here is more than helpful in planning excursions for your family so that you can enjoy a great time in New England’s beautiful Adirondack mountains,
Apple Island Resort, VT.
71 US-2, South Hero, VT
The Apple Island resort is a well-kept RV park on Lake Champlain in Vermont. This is a great RV park to relax and enjoy the Vermont beauty. Although this is undoubtedly a family-friendly RV park, we felt it was more geared toward those enjoying their retirement in their RV. Of course, many retired RVers at the park enjoy their time here with their families and grandkids.
Many of the RV sites at Apple Island offer stunning views of the Vermont mountains and Lake Champlain. On a clear day, the sunrise over the mountains and lake is breathtaking.
The RV park offers a well-manicured 9-hole par three golf course on the premises. In addition, there is a country store with a deli at the park that offers excellent sandwiches and lunch deals. They also offer a small swimming pool to cool off during the afternoons.
You can also enjoy the breathtaking views of Lake Champlain from boats or kayaks out of the Apple Island Marina.
