Moose Hillock is everything we love about camping, private wooded sites, activities for the children, endless local attractions and a swimming pool the children won't soon forget. The only complaint we had was the speed in which people and staff travel through the campground makes it very dangerous for the children riding bikes. We stayed in site 35, it was very close to the pool and the front gate which may have been part of the reason for the excessive speed. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We cannot say enough good things about our experience camping here. The pool is amazing, the staff is friendly and the grounds/sites are very clean. Our site was a w/e/s/ctv site close to the pool and so large that we could have fit another trailer on it at the same time! There was a free magic show for the kids one night we were there. We will be camping there again next season! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The best campground I have ever stayed at. Friendly people, great staff, a christening atmosphere. I will make this a regular part of our vacation each year. My kids loved it here. And we will love it more in our new to us 5th wheel. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Our favorite campground! We have been going for over 5 years now. The largest and best swimming pool in New England! The kids absolutely love this place! Near Conway, the White Mts, many other nice places. The food at their pool cafe is very good! Great breakfast! The owner and crew are simply fantastic. This year we left early as did many others, it simply wouldn't stop raining, for days, too bad, cause again this is our favorite place! Maybe we'll just have to go back again later this summer! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
The campground is great. The kids had a great time in the pool. I would have to say its one of the best around. Everyone was friendly and we will be booking a week here, every year! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This campground was excellent the pool was the highlight of this campground. The lake was also great to fish in we caught a bunch of little fish. It rained almost the whole time but it did not stop us from having a good time at this campground the only draw back of this campground is the bears trying to get into the dumpsters every night and the location it is pretty far from anything like a wallmart. I would stay again. We camped here in a Tent.
We really liked this campground. However, when I made reservations a month before, I stressed I needed to be near a bathroom. She assured me I would be but upon check-i, realized I was not. I asked her to change me and she said she could not. Even when I stressed I have a special needs child and a two year old in the middle of toilet training. I was told the policy is they cannot guarantee sites unless you stay a week or more. Ok, but when we drove around we saw so many sites available near a bathroom. She told me she positively did not have anything. With a smile on her face and very pleasant but firmly standing her ground. So I went back and spoke to the people in the store. I explained our special circumstances and they gave me a site near the handicapped bathroom with no problem. I was not happy with the girl in check-in. I felt she could have listened to me more and tried a little harder to accomodate us. I understand rules, but in this case, bend a little. The pool is great. It rained two out of three days but the kids still swam since it is heated. The pool has no shade and gets so crowded on hot days (the day we checked in) so it was better this way. It was very fun for the kids. They kept going back to it the whole time. There is no life-guard and you really have to watch your kids go down the slides. It can get a little hairy. They are very strict about people watching their kids so that was somewhat reassuring. The bathrooms and showers are clean. The handicapped shower was not working but the others did and there was no lines. The snack bar is great and prices are reasonable. The store is clean and well stocked. The rec room was fun but not too overwhelming or interesting enough that the kids wanted to go there all day. The trout pond was disappointing. No catches from anyone we met. But the kids had fun anyway. Overall it was a fun place to be. Staff in the store, not overly nice but not rude either. Everyone else, very nice and friendly. It is a great family campground. They enforce quiet hours and do not allow drinking anywhere but your site. I found the campers very family oriented and not interested in partying and ignoring their children like some other places we have gone to. They allow dogs and have many places to walk. I did not see one golf cart the entire weekend. I loved this since the last place we went to was non stop golf carts with drunks driving. We will return. It really is our type of campground. It is near fun activities in NH such as the Polar caves and Clarks. That was a plus. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Pool is awesome. This is one of our favorites. Sites are spacious and private. Quiet (away from the pool area!)We go here every year. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
While I would agree with most of the positive comments left by others, I would add that whether or not you like this campground all depends on what you are looking for. The showers were clean (but is it really necessary to charge a quarter for 3 minutes when the nightly rate is $39 and $49 on the weekends?), the staff was pretty friendly, the pool is cool, and the place is clean. There are many things to do - fish, playground, shows, the pool complex, etc., but my family just found this place too big, too crowded, too noisy, too touristy. We camp to get away, not to be surrounded by more people and noise. The steel drum Muzak at the pool got to be annoying; I was glad that our site was well away from the central pool and snack bar area. The site was large, wooded and private, which we loved, but the place was just too overdone for our taste. Young children will have a ball here and the teenagers seemed to roam in packs, but my middle-schoolers were a bit non-plussed by the activities. The magic show was great and I will say this campground has a lot going for it and will appeal to many people, but we will probably not go back simply because we like a little more peace and quiet. The owners do a good job with cleanliness and friendliness; it's just not our kind of place. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
All previous reviews are correct. Campground was well maintained, staff were friendly and sites were cleverly secluded. The huge pool has a Spanish Galleon shipwreck complete with water slide, skeleton pirates and cannon water shots. Our kids wanted to spend every minute of the day there. Tropical steel band music is piped into pool/cafe area and it truly gives you the feeling you are in the tropics. The stocked pond provided the kids with successful visits each time we went fishing. The activities included a fairly decent magic show, make your own sundaes, candy bar bingo and even a chapel service. We will certainly be back! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Great Park 2 waterslide and great staff. Great pool. Overall great campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a very nice park. The owners and employees are exceptional. . . They are constantly working to improve this park. The pool is very very nice. The interior roads are rustic and the sites are sandy; but if you like the feel of being in the woods this is the one for you. The sites are not close to each other and pretty level. It rained every day we were there or the roads would have been better. We would not hesitate to stay again. The area is beautiful. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
One fine campground. Most sites are copious in size and have some privacy between sites. We have camped here three times over the years. Only complaints are, lots and lots of noisy kids, and a long drive to "local" attractions. We have camped here in a tent, a pop top and a travel trailer. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We liked the cg. Sites were a good size with privacy. Staff were friendly. They had a large pool with waterslides for the kids. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Perfect campground. We have been going here for years. The owners have continuously
improved the campground without sacrificing what makes it great. Spacious, secluded sites, family activities, GREAT pool with two water-park quality slides, clean arcade, snack bar. 10PM quiet time is adhered to by families without stooping to gustapo tactics. Very clean facilities - extra friendly staff. Overall A+++ We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
