Northeast Kingdom Vermont Attractions
The Northeast Kingdom of Vermont is an attraction in itself.
From the scenic vistas of rolling hilltops across lush green valleys dotted with the white spires of church steeples and red barns, to the village square and the old fashioned general store across the green from the bandstand, coming to the Kingdom is like traveling back to a simpler time when the pace of life was slower. The Northeast Kingdom of Vermont is spectacularly scenic throughout the camping season and simply breathtaking during the height of annual fall foliage.
There are outstanding recreational opportunities here in the Kingdom, and many of them free!
Some of the best mountain biking trails in the Northeast are located right here on our miles of dirt roads and woodland trails where vehicular traffic is minimal, and the new Lamoille Valley Rail Trail will be opening soon. Closed to motorized traffic, it crosses the state from St. Johnsbury in the east to St. Albans in the west, and it passes right by our door.
Fisherman will find ample sport on our 12 lakes, numerous ponds, and sparkling mountain streams as well as kayaking, canoeing and boating.
Skirting the lakes are beaches and parks that invite picnicking and lazy summer afternoons.
Golfers enjoy a wide selection of courses (with reasonable rates) to try during a visit. and the St Johnsbury Country Club is just a few miles from Sugar Ridge. And don't forget our own 18 hole miniature golf course right here at the campground for hours of family fun.
There's Plenty To See on a Day Trip Too!
with just a short drive, you can visit the many attractions Vermont and the White Mountains of New Hampshire have to offer.
