Camping in Southern Vermont



Take Only Pictures, Leave Only Footprints

CAMPERAMA CAMPGROUND
TOWNSHEND, VERMONT

I have season camped in and around Newfane, Vermont, (12 miles north of Brattleboro) for a number of years.  Presently, our trailer is located in Townshend, Vermont, at Camperama Campground - Many of the sites are located on the banks of West River.

Exit No. 2 on Interstate 91 at Brattleboro, VT.  Then Route 30 toward Manchester.  After passing through Newfane, look for Townshend Furniture Company on the left.  Proceed, crossing the bridge and take the first left onto Depot Road.
