9 Unforgettable Family Campgrounds

Written by

Rogers Rock Campground

Hague, New York

Being one of the most popular family campgrounds in the New York area, you can be sure your entire family will have fun here. Group camping areas can accommodate a large family camping trip, and the diverse landscape offers swimming, biking, boating and hiking. Drive six short miles to explore historic Fort Ticonderoga, as well.

Prairie Creek

Rogers, Arkansas

Sunny campsites, limestone bluffs and Beaver Lake provide ample opportunity for an adventurous family camping trip. Have a hiking adventure in the Ozark Mountains, where relaxing and scenic trails await you. Back at the campground, enjoy a friendly game of family volleyball or let your kids run around the on-site playground.

Heyburn State Park

Plummer, Idaho

Located in the oldest state park in the Pacific Northwest, there's more than enough to keep your family busy for the entire trip. Rent a boat from the marina and enjoy water skiing on a hot day. Stay on land for a family hike on the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes, one of the most scenic trails in western U.S. Finally, after a long day, find a spot on the beach for dinner and a sunset over the lake.

Manzanita 

Sedona, Arizona

Enjoy a low-key family weekend at the Manzanita Campground. With only 19 campsites in the entire park, it will almost feel like you have the place to yourself. Spend lazy afternoons hanging by Oak Creek where you can swim, fish, and lounge. Grab a creekside campsite and you won't have to walk far for your morning fishing adventures. Spend some time exploring one of the nearby hiking trails or drive over to Slide Rock State Park, one of the most popular swimming spots in the state.
