Looking for a CG near New Britain, CT

[ever1ast15]

Hello all. I am looking for a campground near New Britain, CT. In looking on line, I only see a handful of options and most don't have good reviews. However, sometimes I know those reviews are bogus, so I am wondering if anyone on this forum has any suggestions.

Thanks in advance!

We hiked through a nearby State Forest (starts with an "M", has an Indian name and that's all I remember besides the fact that it was restful, had beautiful vistas and we saw a family of pheasants walking through the underbrush, LOL)and wandered into Black Rock SP's campground to take a look see at it's facilities.

It was a Monday, the campsite residents smiled back in acknowledgement for the most part; bathrooms were clean and sites looked well maintained. It was obvious that the weekend had been busy from the amt of discarded Pop-Up canopies in the garbage. What is it about those things that make people go back for more I'll never know; better choices out there but I digress.

We ate our lunch at a picnic table near a small lakeside beach and I noted the park as a place to return to if ever we stayed that close to the MA border again.

I'm sure you can find out readily if it has the type of RV hookups you find important.

Bear Creek is not to bad, we were there a couple of yrs ago. pros, super easy sites to get in/out of, decently maintained, clean, nice campstore, staff friendly. cons, place is new, flat and trees haven't grown in. Place looks like a gravel yard

Good Luck

There is a new campground at the Lake Compounce Amusement
Park. Never stayed there but it is close to New Britian
in Bristol, CT

Not sure it would be open when you want.
