What campers say

Jigger Johnson Campground is a well-kept, conveniently located base for exploring the Kancamagus area. Visitors praise clean flush restrooms and coin‑operated hot showers (about $2.50 for ~7 minutes), and hosts are described as friendly and helpful. Short trails lead to the Swift River with sandy banks and secluded spots, and sites are generally spacious, level, and a mix of wooded and more open pitches—though some note trees between sites have thinned over time. Quiet hours are typically observed. Practical tradeoffs: there’s no dump station and water spigots aren’t threaded for hoses. Nearby hiking and attractions are within a short drive.

Superslif

Only if you like “dry” camping, this park is for you. ( US Forest Service campground). Huge , huge sites. Almost all the RV sites you can fit. 45’ RV motorhome. I’m going to count this as one of my favorite parks. Sites are all level. Good separation between sites. Some of the sites in the rear loop ( outer ones ) there is a small clear stream that is about 100-200’ in back of the sites. Most sites are shady or semi-shady. This past winter ( 2017-2018) they did take out some of the old Red Pines for safety sake. This effected about a 1/3 of the campsites. In only in a way that a few years of growth will fill in. There is “NO” dump station here. There are fresh water faucets about every 10 campsites but some don’t have a threaded connection, some do. There is a pay ($2.50) shower building at the front of the campground. Near by (5-10 minutes) there are a number of water falls. Also many trailheads near by. No, zip, zero, nada, none or any cell service here. Far from “any” city ( 12 Miles) do the night sky is star filled.
