Big spacious sites, nice showers. Playground. Easy to get into/out of. Lots of lovely trails. Near the disc golf course.
The hosts were very nice, too.
I only wish they had sites with sewer.

West Thompson Lake Camping is very nice. Sites and facilities are clean and well maintained. Sites are private. Firewood is available at a very reasonably price. The hosts are very friendly. If you have a CT fishing license the lake is very accessible. There are some very nice hiking trails which begin right in the campground. We have camped here 3 times and we are looking forward to many more.
