Hello,We will be traveling from Niagara Falls to Acadia NP summer 2016 with a small travel trailer and 3 young children (9,7, & 3), and plan to spend 3 nights in New Hampshire specifically to drive to the top of Mount Washington and enjoy the White Mountains.We prefer state parks, however I cannot find a convenient one to Mount Washington. I am looking at Timberland Campground, which seems to have a lot for the kiddos to do. I'd love some suggestions and feedback from those who have camped in the area!Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Can't help with specific recommendations, but if you zoom in on RV Park Reviews' New Hampshire Map, you can see the options near Mt. Washington, which is marked on the map. Looks like there are several choices with favorable reviews, although they vary in the services/amenities offered.

Green Meadows is my choice. Nice pool, right next door to Storyland. Lots of tax free shopping in N. Conway.

We stayed at the KOA near there. The sites were set up kind of funny, back to back. There was a pool and a game room, not a bad campground. Close to the mountains.

Look at Dolly Copp. It's a NH state park and is fairly close to Mt Washington.

Make that "National Campground" ... There's a big difference between them. I love Dolly Copp CG, there's a great story about Dolly. But it's a dry CG, no hook ups and small sites. I went by the CG last month looking for a sites we might fit in, no luck.

Glenn Ellis CG in Glen is a great choice for camping with kids.

Just returned from the White Mountains. Jigger Johnson campground is very nice, no hook ups but they have running water and showers. Nice large and private sites.

It's not a state park but it's a nice family campground.
Been there many times when the kids were small.
There are also some good links in this one:

Lost River

You can burn a few hours if you take the kids up the road to:

Clicky

Have fun, Rick

We also used the KOA in Twin Mountain. No, not convenient maybe, but it was a nice, easy drive and no traffic issues whatsoever. We had a site up on the hill behind the office; because of the way the sites are carved out of the hill no two sites are alike up there. The place was very clean, it was quiet and is run by great folks. Cell service & WiFi can be spotty. Enjoy & safe travels.

Heading to Timberland in a couple days for the first time. I guess that is nor of the auto road. Our favorite campground in the area is Fransted but that is close to the Cog RR than the auto road. Close to the auto road are Glen Ellis and Green Meadow which are both nice campgrounds.
