Lafayette Place Campground

Beautiful campground at the middle of Franconia Notch S.P. perfect for thru hikers. Bathroom facilities with washer/dryer and showers available for campers. No hook ups at this campground, but it not a problem if that's not what you need for your camping experience. Only con is it's very close to I-93 so the traffic can be loud and a constant noise even through the night.

Good campground if hiking in Franconia notch, other than a good view from the playground not a lot of amenities. Dry site no power or water at any site including camper sites. Showers were clean and take quarters, a little short on male restroom stalls, and the outdoor facilities were locked. Good selection of material at the camp store, including ice in cube or blocks (lasted two day). Had a great time well maintained sites, all raked when we arrived, just be aware of your needs and desires from a camp site. Also be aware fire band can occur at any time in the summer, but Charcoal was allowed (and propane) but bring some Charcoal just in case.

Great place! This is a good campground for people who want to hike in the Notch. It is very simple. Our site was small with only one place we could setup our tent, but we liked it - we had a picnic table and a fire pit with a grill top. The bathrooms were okay, and the showers were good (coin operated, but hot and roomy). The camp store had everything you would need, and everyone working there was very friendly. There's a big playground for the kids and they had evening story time led by a park ranger.

Fantastic campground for families! We came with our 10-year-old and friends and had a blast. Easy car camping with amazing access to trails. We hiked to Lonesome Lake Hut and saw morning mist rising over the mountains (breathtaking!). Kids loved the stream by the campground, and the bike trail took us to a sandy beach (3 mi) and the Basin (2 mi). Both spots had cold, clear water that felt amazing after a ride. Classic campfires, s’mores, and starry nights made it perfect. Highly recommend!

This is our go-to camping place every year. Location is nothing less than perfect, surrounded by mountains, hikes, beautiful lake and gorgeous flume gorge. Campsite 47 has been our campsite for years, we love it since it's right next to water stream, I love sleeping and waking up next to relaxing sound of water. Kids love playing in water since it's very very shallow, shaded, clean and very safe. Camp store is so cute and sells absolutely everything that you might need for camping, although it's a bit pricey. Toilets are clean, there are coin operated showers as well, check in easy, there is drinking water tap almost next to campsites, there is a dedicated dish washing stations, although I saw some people still washing dishes under the drinking water tap :( There are trails starting from
