We just booked again for this coming summer - this will be our second time staying at Brewster River Campground, and we’re so excited to go back! This place is quite magical. The river is crystal clear (our dog literally drinks right from it), and there are so many amazing little swimming spots up and down the river to explore. We swam, sunbathed on these awesome rock formations, and there’s even a small cave we swam into. There are forested hiking trails along the river with beautiful views, and the surrounding nature is just incredible. What really stood out to us is how much the owners care about the place. You can feel it everywhere - from the creative sheds, to the landscaping and to the bathrooms (which are the nicest campground bathrooms we've ever seen). Everything feels thoughtful and well cared for. It's such a special spot - We can’t wait to come back!
Overall a wonderful property, I unfortunately had to leave after 1 night due to an illness. But I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for some peace and quiet in nature. My only suggestion would be to put a space heater in the rustic cabin.
We were really looking forward to staying at Brewster River after finding their website and planned our trip around it. Our stay spanned Columbus day weekend, which was understandably busy. Unfortunately, it just wasn't the quiet and peaceful experience we sought. Several sites here are pretty close together. We stayed on site 7 for two nights, and site 8’s fire pit was maybe 20 feet from our pad. It happened to be occupied by a group in town for a disc golf tournament who were loud and drinking late into the night. We then moved to 10, which was better, but we heard a lot of 15's antics. We stayed from Thursday through Tuesday. Thursday was fine aside from a few screaming kids, but Friday and Saturday nights were basically a party atmosphere. Sunday, the party left, but two dogs were left crated and barking for hours while their owners were gone. The campground owner tried to help but couldn’t reach them, eventually apparently the police and animal control were contacted, but the barking went on well into the night. The only truly quiet night was Monday. Typically we find dispersed camping options, but that isn't really a thing in northern VT, so when we return, we'll try somewhere else. We stayed at Elmore State Park earlier this year, it wasn't great, but it was quieter than Brewster River.
Stayed at site #4 and had an incredible time! Spacing between sites was perfect, despite it being a "full house" for Labor Day Weekend, it never felt crowded. Bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Having 24/7 access to the woodshed with different payment methods accepted was fantastic. Owners are very responsive by phone and were willing to work with us when we couldn't figure out car troubles, causing us to need to stay another night on short notice. And when I needed help with a battery jump, Matt and Ty were quick to come down and give a hand when they certainly didn't have to. Their kindness and willing to go the extra mile assured that my wife and I plan to make this campground an annual trip!
Just enjoyed a stay at "The Loft" at Brewster River Campground with our kids. The river was steps away and the campground was so peaceful. Loved all the thoughtful touches provided such as toiletries and anything you would need in the kitchen. Made friends with the bird nesting on the deck. Would highly recommend this spot!
