Highly recommend. Despite some bad reviews we are long time campers and enjoyed this place as did our children. You could not ask for better staff/management. Everyone who worked here was kind, respectful, and friendly. There was plenty for the kids to do, and the grounds were clean. Dog friendly as well. We will certainly be returning. Sites were big enough for our 37ft camper-shady too which was nice! It's a busy campground for sure, but the noise and commotion didn't bother us if you want a private wooded campground with no noise go to a state park. New Hampton, NH location read more

I am 11 year old, and I am happy to say that this is the best campground to go to for friends and family, so much different things to do everywhere you go I highly recommend this campground. I'm his brother (13) and I agree and disagree with others. I can definitely agree with the bugs and the mattresses, but I disagree with the golf carts and screaming in quiet hour. All in all, I would recommend this place for people who have smaller money range and a fun time for younger kids. I'm a 8 year old,I would highly recommend this place.there is lots of things to do, like riding bikes going for a walk or playing at the river and water park.My favorite thing to do is paddle board down the river. You should come here right now! read more

This was our first time staying at Adventure bound in Nh. We used to stay at Glen Ellis before it became a Jellystone and fell outside of our budget. I was unaware that Adventure bound in NH was formally a Jellystone until after our arrival and I was pleased to hear that although it had the big name, it is family run. Pros: We stayed from Thursday to Sunday and booked the preferred rustic cabin near the welcome office. The cabin itself was simple as expected and very clean. For a cabin that allows dogs, there was no smell or animal hair which was nice as we didn't have a dog with us. Although the rustic cabins state online when booking that there is no Air-conditioning, ours did! I'm not sure if it is because it's a preferred cabin but we were extremely happy that it did, especially since Thursday was very hot and humid. As for the location, we thought it was the perfect spot. It was close to all the amenities and a short walk to the river. We did scope out the entire campground to scout future spots and were not particularly impressed with the sites closest to the road on the campground as you can hear the cars and it's a hike to get to the center. We travelled with our two children ages 11 and 4 and they had an absolute blast! The staff does a great job with the extra events on Saturday and my 4 year old was obsessed with the train ride that runs twice a day. The Manager who drive the train is always very pleasant and has great energy when driving the train, it makes a big difference in the experience! I've read reviews that the campground is like a "frat party", we did not get that vibe. I got a live active campground with families and kids everywhere. It was nice to see kids riding their bikes and using the basketball court. We saw teenagers playing volleyball all the time and adults having a great time with horseshoe and shuffle board. I've been to campgrounds where those activities are underutilized and it's sad. This was not the case with this campground. We do not have a dog but it was also nice to see how pet friendly this campground is. There were so many families who had dogs with them, it's nice to have a campground where it's super dog friendly as I know so many people with dogs who feel restricted because of pet policies. I also appreciated how the toddler splash pad was separate from the pool so I could feel comfortable keeping an eye on my little one while also being able to relax. The pools were also clean and well maintained. The hot tub was out of order. I can't speak to the inflatable slides as it was windy on the day we attempted to check it out so it wasn't up. The snack bar has a ton of great breakfast and lunch items. The ice coffee and root beer floats are delicious! Lastly, the river... it's amazing. We brought some tubes and lifejackets and had a great time! This was the highlight to our trip to be honest. Some Cons: If I had to provide some feedback, I'd say a few things. Unfortunately there is a good amount of mold in the showers near the pool. I'm not sure if they're being cleaned often, there were Qtips in the showers and when I showered another day they were still there. I informed the staff and they apologized and said they'd tell their cleaning crew. It seems like it's understaffed, we had to wait in line for over an hour to just get to the counter to do ceramics Saturday morning. By the time we sat down to paint, the activity was wrapping up. There was one girl doing the transactions and pouring the paint. We also wish that there were more activities Friday night and/or during the week. We arrived Thursday and the vibe was alot quieter of course than the weekend so the pool was not overcrowded which was lovely, however it would've been nice if there was ceramics or a movie nice on Thursday or Friday. It would be a nice incentive to stay during the week for a longer period of time. We felt as though all the activities were crammed on Saturday. We also wish the bathroom near the store was open 24/7 and not just during store hours. We booked the preferred spot because the bathroom location on the map, understanding that our cabins did not have a bathroom. Ultimately, we had a great weekend, I'm not sure why some reviews are so negative. At the end of the day, you're camping and you make the best of it, you make lifelong memories and enjoy the time with your family/ friends. The staff was always pleasant and kind and you saw them wearing multiple hats to maintain the grounds so you can tell everyone is working hard. Yes, the grounds could use a little TLC. Maybe this campground is understaffed but the team is doing the best they can with all their guests requests. My family and I may have found our new favorite campground to make memories year after year. We plan to book a longer stay at Adventure bound NH next year :) read more

Let me say, the actual camp sites we chose (three of them for a group) were beautiful and secluded, though near the road enough to hear the cars. The actual place is not like the pictures. It's VERY run down and over crowded. Campers are piled right in one after another. The pool itself seemed clean, but the blow up water slide and splash area are showing their age. And one of the river entrances was blocked off. Now, the bathroom pictures people posted here were very misleading. We found the stalls with galvanized metal nearest the pool. But they were completely covered in mold. And the facilities closest to us were as pictured here. Disgusting. For the price, I was very disappointed. read more

Adventure Bound - The bathrooms are absolutely disgusting. Moldy and filled with bugs in the evening and early morning. - Campgrounds Near Me - New Hampton, New Hampshire

It was awful. We didn't even bother to stay for our reservation. After checking in which is run by what looks like a bunch of 12 year olds running the front desk we made our way to our campsite. Our vehicle was almost pegged by flying horse shoes, ran in to by crazy golf cart drivers, or kids not being supervised by parents riding their bikes. When we found our campsite that was crammed right in between a bunch of others surrounded by people freely smoking marijuana out in the open which was supposed to be "on the river" it was actually way up on the hill surrounded by DOT plastic orange guard rails. read more

Our site located across from employee who had 2 dogs. We're there from Thursday till Sunday. Saw her let her dogs out once. Confronted her and said they were fine. Called animal control she came up slamming the door glaring at us. Let the dogs out for 10 minutes yelling at us "are you happy now. I let my dogs out" mind you no ac no windows open shades down and dogs barking all the time. She would drive by hear them bark and not get off to let them out. She even used what we think a shock collar on them from her golf cart to quite them up. Campground it slef very dirty and over crowded. I mean come in used band aides all over the pool area? The bathroom was absolutely disgusting. Never again. ​ read more

This is for the gentleman Auther manager of the camp ground .I witnessed you yell at kids for being in a hot tub THAT was supervised .How dare a grown man speak to children in that manner .I have booked out for many years and now I'm looking for a new place.Change the shower curtains and do something about the flies read more

Another great year at Adventure Bound Camping Resort in New Hampton NH. The staff is extremely friendly and courteous. Each year more and more improvements are made. The park manager Arthur and his team are second to none. Anytime there is a concern, Arthur ensures it us immediately and judiciously handled. We camp all through our NH and surrounding states. Adventure Bound is our first choice due to the staff and continued year after tear improvement. read more

If I could I would rate it 0. We spent last week there complained a couple of times to no avail. The cabin we rented #156 was horrible. The wood had mold, floors were dirty you could not walk on it barefoot. There was little space in the kitchen and the small countertop was damaged by being old, burnt etc. the mattresses were so uncomfortable I fell out one night as there was a dip in it. The pool was dirty and some bandaids were on the ground near the pool. The snack bar is closed Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday due to lack of staff. The laundry room was taken over by a staff member to wash mattress covers only 1 washer and 1 dryer available for guests plus it cost us $60 to do 6 loads. If you have your own RV it probably be better but still the entire area and cabins need to be updated I spoke with seasonal guest and for the last 2-3 years they've been told there would be updates but nothing has happened. The jacuzzi has no jets that work. Not a good place. read more

Overcrowded, extremely congested, no privacy, loud, kids, bikes. and golf carts EVERYWHERE can hardly get down the road in your car...someone took a poop in the pool, dirty bathrooms...sites literally ON TOP of each other. Feels like one huge overcrowded block party. Comfy full size bed in cabin...bunks have different mattresses and really uncomfy. Cable tv mounted to wall, that was cool. Snack snack was convenient but grumpy worker. If you're looking for a nice getaway to relax and enjoy the outdoors....this is definitely not it! read more

My review Is based on what I personally look for in a campground. We rented a deluxe cabin for 5 nights and friends rented next to us for two nights, keep in mind 5 nights was $1,300+ so it's not cheap considering we also have to bring. Everything, including chairs(we knew this going in and is typical of campground cabins) 1. Grounds surrounding cabins are super small. We always bring a pop up to set up outside over a table. Absolutely no room. Our fire pit was at the base of the porch stairs and our chairs were set up right next to the neighbors car tire. We also had to go get our picnic table from another site and carry it up to our porch. No room for it to be anywhere else. Again, our preference is more seclusion so others might be ok with the closeness. 2. Our cabin and neighbors cabin were never cleaned. Absolutely disgusting. I'm not talking sand, I'm talking poop on the floor, tooth paste in the sink, eggs in the fridge, socks/lotion/binkies/hair balls on the floor And smoke alarm hanging from ceiling I've stayed in better maintained $50 night hotels. 3. Pools were too crowded and slide lines were very long but kids enjoyed the activities And riding bikes through the grounds. Kids did avoid the pools during the afternoons because they were too crazy for them But went during off peak times. 4. River was very nice and our saving grace since we brought kayaks and tubes. We just brought the kids out to the middle of the river to play and they had a blast. We ended up renting the tent site below our cabin once we got there so we could have direct access to the river. Never paid $100 night for a tent site before but we had to make the best of what we were given and the memories provided by the site were well worth it, it just shouldn't have been necessary. 5. Loft definitely didn't meet any safety standards I'm aware of. Access by a ladder (which is expected) but the top rung has nothing to hold on to so I ended up in the emergency room after night one from my hand slipping off. (Sprained wrist so not vacation ending) 5. Our complaints were addressed by management with monetary adjustments but brushed off with comments such as "busy and a lot of cabins to flip for new renters", "we have 100's of cabins with lofts and no plans to change ladders" 6. We did make great memories(lemonade out of lemons) but my son did have to fall asleep in the back of the car the 1st night because he was so upset with the cleanliness.(a little OCD issues so again, we worked through the best we could). Although he had fun, his memories are not good ones. He is adamant he will never go back (sad experience for him) 7. Throughout the campground is like a ginormous frat party. Many seemed to be having a blast so if that is your thing, this is the place for you. It's not ours and is why we selected the furthest cabins away when we booked. Suggestions since the campground has potential. 1. Eliminate some cabins and spread them out. If you can't manage the cleaning and flipping for next guests, reduce the number you are renting and the experience could be amazing. We shouldn't have to start our vacation by cleaning for an hour.(not our 1st time traveling so we do travel with cleaning spray). 2. Add handles to top rung of ladder. Lofts are fun, make them safer. 3. add safety railings to the loft 4. Be compassionate/empathetic when guests have concerns. We dont care that you have a lot of cabins to flip, we paid a hefty price assuming you have your grounds under control. (Office staff and Maintenance crews were very friendly, management had excuses and even took another call while meeting with us) We did not allow any of the above mentioned to ruin our time. We really did have fun so hopefully the campground owners will read this as constructive criticism. As I mentioned before, the campground has great potential to meet the needs of the partying groups as well as more back families. I'd be open to trying it again in a couple years with some pretty straight forward and reasonable enhancements. Forgetting to clean 2 cabins for the next guests and management excuses are the reason for my 1 star. **Pictures of everything mentioned can be provide upon request** read more

It's so unfortunate that the manager at this site is as rude and disrespectful as he was this past weekend; yelling at children and adults over things that people aren't even aware of. A once, very family friendly and calming environment has now turned into a tension filled vacation with the new management... will NOT be returning unless someone else runs the place. #KB read more

So this is the first time I have ever written an on-line review (negative or positive), but this place was so bad I felt compelled to warn others of this place. Just got back from a three night stay with my family of four and this place is by far the worst campground I have ever stayed in. It started out when driving in and being astonished with how close some of the sites were to each other. Some of the sites were so close that an extended awning of one camper was within inches of the neighboring camper. After unhooking our travel trailer and hooking up to the water we noted that there was not enough water pressure to get any water in our camper. After politely inquiring if the situation could be fixed (once on the day we checked in and then again twice the next day)I got to hear the maintenance workers and campground manager saying a litany of rude remarks over their handheld radios as I was standing in the campground store asking to speak with someone on the issue. They were saying that the issue was with my camper (a 2021 camper that I had just had hooked up at another campground with no issues) even though the gage on my pressure regulator was reading that there was less than 15 PSI at the water spigot. I asked to speak the campground manager and heard him respond to the request over the handheld radio several profanities and "have someone else take care of this a**hole, I just had hip surgery!" Another rude individual came and told me there was nothing they could do end I could leave with a refund (something that wasn't going to happen as my 6 and 8 year old had been looking forward to this trip for weeks). We really could make do just fine all I was hoping for was for them to just be honest and admit that there wasn't enough water pressure due to the volume of campers there and my site being one of the last sites on the water header. The bathrooms were absolutely filthy. I went in behind the cleaning person (in hopes that they were just dirty from the volume of use) and was astonished to see trash still all over the floors, the toilets not even touched, and the sinks still disgusting. I think the only "cleaning" that takes place is they empty the trash can and refill the toilet paper. There's also no exhaust fans (the vents were there, but no operating exhaust fans) in the bathrooms which make them even more disgusting. The elderly lady that worked in the snack shack was incredibly rude and it took us 30 minutes to get ice cream and forty-five minutes to get fried food the next day (with only one to two people in line in front of us). The pool is in horrible condition with peeling paint and the concrete chipping all over it. Much like the bathrooms the pool is not properly maintained with trash, hair, and other vile material floating all trough it. The "beach" is really just a sandy old boat launch that is so narrow and on such an incline that you can't even set up a beach chair. About half of the staff was rude (which made us feel bad for the other half). I can not believe this is a corporate institution. I can't see how this place would live up to any type of corporate standards. Maybe this place could be bearable with better management and some investment in the infrastructure, but as it stands you should avoid this place at all costs! read more

I'd give 0 stars if possible. Dirty bathrooms, dirty sites. Found a bunch of rusty old screws in the grass on our campsite, which was previously a seasonal site. The sites are piled on top of each other. Barely had 5 feet between us and the next person's fire ring. Our site had a telephone pole right? Smack in the middle, so it made it hard to maneuver the camper around it but luckily my husbands a good driver. Quiet hours are not upheld. We had to call several times for people yelling and talking loud, 5 feet from our camper at midnight. Bathrooms were absolutely disgusting. The blowup waterslides had slimy old leaves on them from the previous season. I wouldn't let my daughter go down them in fear of getting bacteria on her We were there on a memorial day weekend. You would think they would clean up the place before a major holiday weekend We even found a at least one year old bottle of Jamison's alcohol nip on the ground unopened that any kid could've gotten easily. Wires, broken spoons, plastic ware, popsicle wrappers, everywhere. Run by a bunch of teenagers who could care less. I would never go back to this place, even if it was Free, or I was paid to stay here. Way overpriced. read more

i want to thank arthur for the great party we had on saturday with all our seasonal friends the food was outstanding. also want to thank arthurs hard working staff for a wonderful summer at adventure bound. the staff works very hard and want you all to know it is very much appreciated. have a great and safe winter see you all in the spring. sincerely cheryl correllus site 54 read more

Been going to this campground for 17 years now staff is friendly great place for a family trip

I stayed here last year and forgot to review. THIS CAMPGROUND IS AAAAMAZING A++!! I don't care about the other reviewers because clearly they are too "stuck up" to even go camping!! We stayed on Memorial day weekend 2021. And yes it was loud but not after 12-1am.. I mean come on people, did you really plan on going to bed early on your vacation!!?? Summer camping is supposed to be a celebration time! It's called summer vacation for a reason right!!?? The staff here is A++ and we're very accommodating when we had a small issue with the heat in the RV rental we had. They sent someone out right away and when it couldn't be quickly fixed they moved us to another RV and offered a nights refund!! It pains me to see people leaving such bad reviews when in all honesty there is nothing "BAD" about ABC camp ground, PERIOD!!!! I will forever remember my amazing experience, and happy engagement on memorial day weekend 2021 at ABC!! read more

The new owners of this camp is very unprofessional. Felt some racism towards us and was not friendly. First day we got there. It was already a bad start. We had water leakage when we arrived, we went to tell them and they said "we'll come back to fix that" they come back, just started working on it but didn't update us on anything. There was one employee with an attitude. How they handle the situation wasn't friendly. Once's there were done they didn't say anything and just left. Didn't apologize for the inconvenience. I would understand if it was our fault but this leak happened before we even got there. Then same day. There was a camp site that set up there tents and such in front of our camp site. This employee came out of know where and asked us "can I speak with the person who booked this site" we said "yes this is her" then the employee goes and ask " did you set up that tent over there". We said "no". We thought she would ask other campsite around us but instead she just asked us and left. I find that very uncomfortable, to only ask one campsite and not the other is not okay and shouldn't you know who comes in and out of your campgrounds? If someone set up there things. Don't you have records of who there's? But my point is. Very unprofessional because you didn't ask around you target us and ask and then left the other sites alone. When it was yogi bear. It was amazing and they took care of us and was always friendly. Made sure our stay was fun and safe. This new owner hired the most unprofessional and lazy employees. Here's to Francisco. Don't try saying you didn't do anything we have more than 7 people to be witness. You are the most laziest and rudest person on this campground. You have no right to speak to us and start problems when all we were doing is finding a missing phone. You can not say " your English is bad and we can't even understand you" and more racist things. Yes we know it was quite hour. But we were quiet and trying to find a missing phone. Instead of sitting there on your ass and yelling and being rude. You could have help us or be more friendly and understanding. There was an employee that knew what was going on and he was nice and I didn't catch his name but he came and ask if we found our phone yet. Shined his light where the spot was so we can find it. He approached us with a nice tone and understanding attitude and knew we were looking for a phone and then Francisco comes and started yelling and making a whole big deal, disturbing quiet time, Yelling and saying we're playing around and jumping. We told him that we have the location of the phone and it right where we were standing and he disregarded that statement and continued to yell and swearing and told us to go other places to find it but we told him "we have the location and it's right here". Drove on his golf cart while yelling and swearing. We go to this campground almost every year and this year with the new owners are the worst! Worst part is. They were unprofessional from the start! read more

Unfortunately not the best place for families. Not clean, kids in hot tub throwing up and staff shrugs shoulder. Bathroom not clean. Quiet hours not followed, had to listen to more f bombs in one night then heard all year at midnight and people still playing music loud. I would never stay or recommend this place. read more

The bathrooms are full of mold, in various kinds of disarray and the wood is in decay. The electrical units in in the middle of poison ivy patches. The golf carts flew by honking and people yelling at night with no governors. The site was flooded in three inches of water with no help. Their activities are not cared for, the pool was not clean, junk on the bottom of the pool, poop floating in the pool. The office had no clue about the campground or their job. no map, nothing for the rear view mirror. The person cleaning the restrooms didn't know where the showers were. read more

camper stay away if zero could be given then it would!!!! if your looking to stay read reviews before hand. If you book anywhere near the pool or amenities for the children think twice! your here camping trying to enjoy your weekend and your having to endlessly remind children and adults to stop cutting through sites. when being addressed with park owner he is also extremely unprofessional! pool is falling apart with missing parts of concrete. Kayaks are filling with water. consumer beware stay away the place is a dump! read more

THIS WILL BE THE LONGEST REVIEW I HAVE EVER DONE. I have been searching for a camp ground suitable for my family and I. I have 5 children ages 10 to 2 and a puppy. This place absolutely exceeded All my expectations. Not only was the place super clean, the workers were Amazing, super friendly and made us feel like we were part of a family. I literally have zero complaints. The cabin was big enough for myself, my husband our 5 kids and our puppy, their store had everything that you may have forgot or need more of. Walmart is 20 minutes ago if you want to go that route their is also a gas station that sells Champagne down the road. The beach area was super cute, the playground was just perfect, we all enjoyed it. The food, little cafe was delish, ice cream was yummy. The water park and pool was perfect even in September. We didnt get to experience the water slide or jump playhouse but we sure will next year. Among with our cabin we had a fire pit and a little grill that work great and we had a porch with a picnic table, the cabin is heated so you have a control in bathroom and bed area, total of 3. You can rent a golf cart we did for the entire stay, I had so much fun driving it around, I would drop some kids off the play with the other children at play ground, drop hubby off the fish ( many different small areas to fish aswell!!) And me I would go to the beach with my baby and puppy. They kept it clean sooo clean. My children left stuff behind and they brought the items to our cabin. Everyone we met was so joyful including the lovely sisters that take reservations and work the store. I give them much respect for dealing with me and my 1000 questions lol. They answered them all. They had so much patience with my kids. We missed out on the main activity I wanted to do which was the ceramics but that was my fault I took to long and was late unfortunately but again gives us more if a reason to come back. My search no longer continues I have found our campground and they may have to tell me to leave because I literally left with my checks hurting I had so much fun. This year we have lost many loved ones due to covid and have been stuck in the house, before I came my depression was at the highest it ever was and I am forever grateful. This place has saved my marriage, myself love and my family and they dont even know that. So I will end this with "just book this place you will love it" I am a VERY picky person and hard to please and i am now in the process of booking it for Halloween. O ya the chipmunks are everywhere it is the cutest thing ever. You will see a beautiful black and white wood pecker absolutely stunning and ground hogs buy your kids a net and tell them if they catch one you will bring it home, that will give you a good 45 min with your husband lol. They wont catch one but it is cute watching them try. Thank you all so much and we will see you un October! Number 194 until we get our own rv!! read more

Went for the weekend with my granddaughter there's was a ton of well planned activities for her to do the staff is superb and very friendly and willing to help.We really enjoyed swimming and kayaking the river which has to be the cleanest I've seen the whole bottom is sandy.I would definitely recommend this camp ground especially for families there's so much to stay busy and have fun with.You won't be disappointed read more

We are longtime (30+ years) timeshare members which we bought when it was A Yogi's Jellystone. We have not camped there in the last 12 years after selling our RV. We rented a cabin with the idea of fondly remembering our youthful days at the park. There are new owners and staff, and it was a week with very few other campers. The cabin was fairly old, a bit dingy, on a small lot but appliances all worked well. The mattress was old and could use replacement. For roughly the same money you can rent brand new RV trailers with upgraded features. Overall, I would give the cabin a 2 rating. During our stay our car's water pump failed while traveling on the Kangamanas Highway. It needed to be towed to Lincoln to be fixed. We paid for a ride back to the campground. The next morning, we went to the office for help getting back to Lincoln. The manager after hearing our plight immediately offered the company truck and a staff member to drive us back to Lincoln to get our car. She wouldn't accept a tip for her services. The friendliness and compassion of the manager and the staff moves this rating up to a four. Everyone we met who worked at the campground were very friendly and did everything they could to insure a great stay. We plan on going back, renting an RV and enjoying this gem in the mountains. Thanks to the staff and their leader, Arthur, I believe was his name, for making our stay so welcoming read more

If you are looking for a relaxing family vacation, this is NOT it. Security allows people to play their music LOUD and past quiet time of 11:00 PM. Everyone is right on top of each other. Fire pits are between 18" and 22" wide... which it can't be much larger because of how close the sites are. Additionally, I called far in advance to reserve adjacent sites with another family, the employee set it up for us. Upon check in, we are not in adjacent sites. The employee said it was because we didn't pay the extra $20 to reserve the specific site. That was the reason we called and it was never offered!!!! Another family chose our site, paid the $20, which kicked my reservation to another location. Very poor customer service! Gas powered golf carts for rent which are noisy! Over the years, we have been to many campgrounds, this has been one of our least pleasurable experiences and we won't be coming back. read more
