Paugus Bay Campground

My family and I absolutely love this campground!!! It’s small, friendly, and super clean! The staff here is amazing and super friendly! Their store has everything you need if you forget something, it’s got a little lake and it’s conveniently located with so much to do! The even have boat docks for you to bring boats!

Great place to vacation and very affordable! My family and I love coming to stay here. Great staff and friendly people.

Best campground right next to Weir's beach. We've been camping here for years and always had a great time! Family owned and operated. Very friendly, accomodating and welcoming staff as always. Bathrooms/Shower houses always clean. They also have a laundry room. The beach is always cleaned up daily, etc. There's a children's playground there too. They always have events going on for everyone of all ages. There is a walking path that takes you straight up to the Weirs Beach sign, which is great, so you don't have to drive anywhere. Plenty of fishing to do there as well. Everyone in the campground is friendly and everyone respects each other. Family campground, not a loud and rowdy party campground like some of the places up in Laconia. If you're looking for peace and quiet, Paugus Bay is where it's at!

We called looking to stay for one or two nights and ended up staying for five! Mostly seasonal campers with trailers and fifth wheels, but with a good selection of sites for passers-through like us in small RVs and tents. Spacious, terraced sites under a leafy canopy with increasingly open views of Lake Winnipesaukee's Paugus Bay as you move down through the campground toward the shoreline. They have a great, reasonably priced camp store with ice, firewood, bait, grocery staples and miscellaneous camping gear. We loved how easy and convenient it was to walk or ride our bikes into Weirs Beach for dining and drinks. The bathrooms and free, hot showers were in great working order and spotlessly clean throughout our stay. The campground is family owned and operated (since 1980!) and the family members we met (George and Laurie) were super helpful and a delight to talk to. Would definitely camp here again.

Our family enjoyed tenting at this campground. It seems to be primarily for seasonals, but the few tent sites they have (with water and electricity access) are peaceful and private. It is not a rowdy campground, and we appreciated the atmosphere. The bathrooms were clean, with free showers. There are kayaks and canoes to rent, and the beach area was clean (also a bit warmer than the main lake beach, which was nice!). It is a bit dated in the booking process, but I promise it is legitimate. The family/extended family that run this campground were kind and accommodating. We were able to bike down a short path to the main boardwalk, and also a bit further to the go carts. I would absolutely recommend this location to anyone looking for a peaceful camping experience close to Weirs Beach.
