What Guests Are Saying
Montpelier Canyon Campground offers beautiful scenery and a quiet atmosphere, particularly after highway traffic subsides. While some sites are small and certain facilities, like restrooms, have faced maintenance issues and vandalism, the campground still provides a pleasant experience for small groups. Reviewers appreciated the natural surroundings and firewood availability, though it's recommended to bring your own water.

The campsite (#13) was beautiful with wildflowers blooming and a small stream nearby. It was private, with only minor noise from the highway. Outhouses were clean and stocked, but they were definitely outhouses. :)

quiet campground on a Saturday night in late June. Sites are somewhat uneven, with some very lumpy ground, and others some nicely mowed grass for tents. many of the tents are right by a gentle creek. Highway noise is audible but the highway doesn't have much traffic after about 10pm.

Great little campground with stream running through it. Good fishing in Montpellier Reservoir just up the road.

Our camp site was well maintained. Itβs a great hidden gem that really is quite close to Montpelier, yet far enough away to see stars. Also loved the river that flows next to our site.

Nice little spot! No real amenities, but vault toilet was clean. Just what we were looking for. Quiet, not a lot of people (Labor Day weekend to boot). Do not come here if you want fancy, but if you just want a spot to park your small camper and have a table and fire pit then it is for you.
