Best time to visit Mollys Falls Pond State Park
Late May through early October offers the most reliable conditions, with ice-free water for fishing and paddling and mild daytime temperatures. Summer brings warm weather and the busiest fishing pressure, while late September and early October deliver vivid fall foliage around the pond and quieter shorelines. Shoulder-season visits in May and October can be cold and muddy, so RV travelers should expect variable weather and limited services in nearby towns. Winter access is limited, and the pond typically freezes over from December into April for ice fishing.

Things to do at Mollys Falls Pond State Park
- Fishing Mollys Falls Pond EasyRV parking available
The reservoir is a popular Vermont fishing destination known for warm-water species such as smallmouth bass, yellow perch, and chain pickerel. A Vermont fishing license is required, and shoreline anglers can cast from the roadside access area off U.S. Route 2.
- Car-Top Boating and Paddling EasyRV parking available
A hand-carry boat access on the pond allows canoes, kayaks, and small car-top craft to launch for a day on the water. The pond is a reservoir with generally calm conditions suited to casual paddling and small-boat fishing.
- Wildlife Watching EasyRV parking available
The undeveloped shoreline and surrounding forest host loons, herons, ducks, and occasional moose and beaver sightings. Bring binoculars and plan for early morning or dusk for the best viewing from quiet spots along the pond.
- Fall Foliage Viewing EasyRV parking available
In late September and early October the hills around Mollys Falls Pond light up with maple, birch, and beech color reflected on the water. The U.S. Route 2 corridor through Cabot and Marshfield is a scenic drive for leaf-peepers traveling by RV.
- Ice Fishing Moderate
In winter the frozen pond is used by local anglers for ice fishing under Vermont regulations. There are no plowed facilities, so visitors must come self-sufficient and check ice conditions carefully before heading out.
- Day Trip to Groton State Forest EasyRV parking available
Groton State Forest is about 20 minutes south and offers developed hiking trails, swimming beaches, and several campgrounds such as Ricker Pond and Stillwater. It pairs well with a visit to Mollys Falls Pond for RV travelers seeking full-service camping nearby. vtstateparks.com/groton.html

How to get to Mollys Falls Pond State Park
The park sits along U.S. Route 2 in Cabot, roughly 25 minutes (about 18 miles) east of Montpelier and about one hour (around 45 miles) southeast of Burlington. From Interstate 89, exit at Montpelier and follow U.S. 2 east through Plainfield and Marshfield toward Cabot. RV drivers should be aware that U.S. 2 is a two-lane rural highway with rolling grades, frost heaves in spring, and limited shoulders, and that winter travel can involve snow and ice on mountain passes. The nearest major airport for fly-and-rent RV travel is Burlington International Airport (BTV).
