I was supposed to be up there this week but hurt my knee and could not walk while in route. Went to ER in VT and returned home in bed for the last 2 days wait to see an orthopedic Dr. When you park in the back parking lot and walk to the stores you will see a road to the right that runs in back of the stores it is narrow and there are no signs until you get in about 100 ft or so. I have been camping up there since 1968 but only found this place about 10 years ago, it is not easy to see and not advertised.

Now you've got me wondering too. I'll be up there next month and always go to Settlers Green and park the camper up by the Kitchen Collection store.

In back of the outlets in Settlers green.

Any more details? That's kind of a big area...
Near N/S road?
I will look around next time we are up there...maybe next week!

It is directly in back of the Kitchen Collection store as Tiki 2 said. There is no charge to dump. You have to back into dump station, even though the sign says do not enter. I would walk it first. It is not the easiest dump station to get into. If staying up there more than one week I will use it. I rarely stay more than one week so I find it easier to use the dump station at exit 14 of I 91.

For some reason I would feel like Clark Griswold's cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) in Christmas Vacation while dumping there...

You can dump in Gorham at the town water works plant there is a fee only open weekdays during business hours 8-12 and 1-4 best to call ahead 603-466 3302. Gerry

Yeah...there is an RV/ATV dealer there also w/dump station. We have used that a couple of times...there is a $ to use it.

True, none of the NF CG's have dump stations in NH (that I know of)...if you really need to dump, there are plenty of private CG's and IIRC some of the NH SP's have dump stations. They will all let you use them...for a $.

Cadillac Jack, et al -
Times change. yes, Cherry Mountain and Gale River Roads have non-traditional sites, but one is limited to using one of the established sites on those roads. And users do need to obtain/display a WMNF parking pass - so not free. Tripoli Road (was just across there a couple weeks ago) has maybe 2 sites suitable to get a vehicle on - those sites are primarily walk-in. Even roadside parking is far from level - good luck with running a fridge unless it is a compressor. Fee is $5/ night, IIRC. NOT what folks from other areas may consider "boondocking". Best to call to confirm dump stations - most sources still list one at Clark's in North Woodstock. That has been closed for years. The Mobil station in Lincoln has one - $. NONE of the established CG's have a dump station. I stand by my previous comments - VERY limited boondocking and NO dump stations at Forest Service CG's. But what do I know - I only live here... Still a nice place to visit, tho! ST
