Campgrounds near Jaffrey, New Hampshire
Jaffrey sits at the base of Mount Monadnock in southwestern New Hampshire, the anchor of the Monadnock region. The town is a practical staging point for RV travelers because it puts hiking, swimming, and paddling within a short drive, and it connects to a mix of state park campgrounds and privately operated RV parks.
Monadnock State Park is the closest public campground, with two areas: the year-round headquarters campground and Gilson Pond, which has 35 family sites plus 5 remote hike-in sites. Neither location offers hookups, so full-service RV travelers typically look to Woodmore Family Campground and RV Park or Spacious Skies Seven Maples for electric, water, and sewer.
Greenfield State Park Campground, about a half-hour north, is the largest campground in the New Hampshire state park system with 255 sites on Otter Lake. South across the Massachusetts line, Lake Dennison State Recreational Area offers 151 wooded sites on a lake in North Central Massachusetts, giving Jaffrey-based RVers a second public option managed by a different agency and reservation system.
Things to do around Jaffrey
Mount Monadnock is the headline activity. The 3,165-foot summit is reached by several trails from the headquarters area or the longer Birchtoft route from Gilson Pond, and every route to the top includes very steep and rocky sections. Day-use parking is limited and fills quickly on nice weekends and holidays, so reservations are strongly encouraged, though a limited number of walk-in spaces remain first come, first served.
Water activities cluster at the nearby lakes. Otter Lake at Greenfield State Park allows swimming, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, with kayak and canoe rentals available at the park store. Lake Dennison permits swimming, fishing, and non-gas-powered boating, and connects to about 50 miles of mountain-bike trails in the adjacent Birch Hill Wildlife Management Area.
Winter turns the region into a cross-country skiing and snowshoeing destination, with about 14 miles of Monadnock's lower-elevation trail system suited to experienced ski touring.

The main RV camping window runs from May through mid-October. Gilson Pond at Monadnock is closed for winter, and Greenfield State Park operates on a similar warm-season schedule with reservable sites from early May through late October. Lake Dennison in Massachusetts is a seasonal campground that closes for the winter.
Summer weekends are the busiest stretch. Monadnock day-use parking fills quickly on weekends and holidays, so reservations well in advance are essential for both hiking access and Friday and Saturday campsite arrivals. Bugs peak from late May through June, and afternoon thunderstorms are common in July and August.
Fall foliage typically peaks in early to mid-October and draws heavy day-use traffic to Mount Monadnock. Winter camping is possible at the Monadnock headquarters area, but the campground road is not plowed and campers must park at the main hiking lot and hike gear about a quarter mile to their site. Pit toilets remain open, but water and firewood are not always available.
How to book campgrounds near Jaffrey
New Hampshire state park sites at Monadnock and Greenfield are booked through the state's ReserveAmerica portal or by phone at 1-877-647-2757. The maximum reservation window is 11 months in advance, and sites become available at 8am on weekdays and 9am on weekends exactly 11 months from the anticipated arrival day. Popular summer weekends and fall foliage dates are typically claimed the moment they open.
Lake Dennison uses the Massachusetts DCR reservation system, with a shorter 4-month booking window. Walk-in registrations are not permitted, though advance reservations can be made online the same day up until 2pm on the date of arrival.
Woodmore Family Campground and RV Park and Spacious Skies Seven Maples book directly through their own websites and are the go-to choices for RVers who need full hookups, since the nearby state park campgrounds have no hookups.
What to expect at Jaffrey-area campgrounds
Public campgrounds in this area lean primitive. Monadnock's headquarters and Gilson Pond campgrounds have no hookup sites, and Greenfield State Park likewise has no hookup sites, though it does provide flush toilets, showers, drinking water, and a dump station for registered campers. Lake Dennison sites have picnic tables and grills but no water or electric hookups, with a dump station on site. RVers who want full utilities should plan on Woodmore Family Campground and RV Park or Spacious Skies Seven Maples.
Pet rules vary. Pets are not permitted anywhere in Monadnock State Park, including all trails on the mountain, and pets are also not allowed in Greenfield's beach area. Massachusetts DCR sites at Lake Dennison allow pets with a current rabies certificate at check-in.
Come prepared to buy firewood on site, since both New Hampshire and Massachusetts prohibit bringing outside firewood into their state campgrounds due to invasive pests.
