Camping near Bigelow Corners
Bigelow Corners is a small census-designated place in the town of New Fairfield, Fairfield County, in the southwestern corner of Connecticut. The area sits in the Litchfield Hills and Hudson Highlands corridor, putting RV travelers within a short drive of state parks in both Connecticut and the Hudson Valley of New York. There is no campground inside Bigelow Corners itself, so trips here generally use one of the surrounding state park or private campgrounds as a base.
The closest options include Lake Waramaug State Park Campground and Macedonia Brook State Park in Kent, Connecticut, plus Sylvan Lake Beach Park Inc and Pelton Pond - Clarence Fahnestock State Park across the New York line. Kettletown State Park, on Lake Zoar in Southbury, has historically been a regional camping anchor but has been affected by recent flood damage. Most properties in this area are rustic to mid-service: expect picnic tables and fire rings at every site, with full hookups limited to a handful of locations.
Things to do near Bigelow Corners
Water-based recreation dominates. Lake Waramaug supports swimming, fishing, and kayak or canoe paddling, with a popular bike loop around the lake on narrow roads. Macedonia Brook State Park offers stream fishing and hiking on the blue-blazed Macedonia Ridge Trail, which crosses Cobble Mountain and other peaks with views toward the Catskills and Taconics. Clarence Fahnestock State Park features a sandy swim beach at Canopus Lake, boat rentals, a short loop around Pelton Pond, and miles of trails including a section of the Appalachian Trail. The town of Kent, near Macedonia Brook, has restaurants and shops within a short drive, and Kent Falls State Park is nearby for a quick day-use stop.

Camping in this region is firmly a warm-season activity. Connecticut state park campgrounds, including Lake Waramaug and Macedonia Brook, typically open in late May and close in mid-October. Macedonia Brook shifts to weekend-only stays, Friday and Saturday nights, after Labor Day. Kettletown State Park Campground has been closed following severe flood damage from a heavy rainfall event, and trips planning to use Kettletown should pick another base until it reopens.
Across the New York line, the campground at Clarence Fahnestock has historically run from mid-spring through early December, but it is currently closed to allow construction of a new bathhouse. The Group Wilderness Campground, the day-use areas, and Canopus Lake beach remain available. Foliage peaks in October and is one of the busiest stretches of the year for sites overlooking Lake Waramaug. Winter weather brings snow and below-freezing nights, and most campgrounds are fully closed.

Marcie and her van were great! Marcie is a very low key host - she is very responsive and was so flexible about pick up and drop off times. Her solar batteries weren't working before our trip and she made sure they were replaced in time. Everything worked great and the van ran great. We spent a week in Acadia in the van. It was small enough that we were able to take it anywhere (including Cadillac Mountain, which doesn't allow anything over 21 feet) and park it with ease most places. We were worried about the sleeping arrangements but we ended up being super comfortable. We never used the propane, but the A/C worked great.

We had a great time on our trip in Marcie’s Solis. She was straightforward, kind, and easy to communicate with.

Easy pick up and drop off. Joe and Kim go over and above to make sure your experience with the vehicle is a positive one.
Robert J. - Oct 2024
We were very pleased with our rental from Joe and Kim. The response when we had a question was instant. The unit was clean and the functionality for a 2005 unit was surprisingly good. Would definitely rent from them again.

A two-night minimum applies to advance reservations, though one-night stays are allowed at campsites, not cabins, booked within three days of arrival. New York State parks, including Pelton Pond at Clarence Fahnestock, use the same ReserveAmerica platform, with reservations available online or by phone when the campground is open. Sylvan Lake Beach Park Inc is privately owned; book directly with the campground.
