Best Time to Camp at Moosalamoo Campground

The ever-changing skies above Moosalamoo paint a canvas of dramatic clouds and gentle breezes throughout the camping season. Summer emerges as the prime time to pitch your tent, when warm days invite hiking and cool evenings call for campfire stories. While Vermont's summer rains occasionally sweep through, bringing that fresh forest scent and temporary relief from insects, savvy campers know that dry weeks offer the most comfortable conditions. Pack layers and rain gear to fully embrace the mountain weather's moody personality.

About Moosalamoo Campground

Tucked away at the foot of Mt. Moosalamoo, where Voter Brook whispers through the forest, lies a hidden gem of tranquility. Moosalamoo Campground welcomes adventurers with 18 thoughtfully spaced campsites, each offering its own picnic table and fire ring for evening gatherings under the stars. While primarily designed for tent camping, the campground accommodates limited RV use for those seeking a more rustic experience. A sprawling meadow invites everything from morning yoga to afternoon frisbee games, while six well-maintained vault toilets and fresh water from a traditional hand-pump ensure comfort without compromising the wilderness feel. Adventure beckons just steps away, with direct access to the Mt. Moosalamoo and Voter Brook trailheads promising endless exploration.
Moosalamoo Campground accommodates primitive camping for tents and RVs, with no hookups. First-come, first-served sites are available in addition to reservable sites.
