This is provided to us by our friends at Harvey’s Lake Cabins and Campground in West Barnet, Vermont.
Harvey’s Lake Cabins and Campground is Vermont’s oldest private campground. The campground is located on the shores of Harvey’s Lake and channel leading into the lake in the heart of what is known as Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom.
Harvey’s Lake, a deep glacially formed lake, is well known as a fisherman’s paradise. The lake is regularly stocked with lake and rainbow trout, and perch, pickerel, and smelts may also be caught. Some large fish are there for the taking for those anglers willing to work for them.
Other lake activities include kayaking, canoeing, boating (motor boats are allowed on the lake), and water skiing. Harvey’s Lake is known as one of the cleanest in Vermont making for excellent swimming. The campground has 2 swimming areas and there is a public beach across the channel.
Some other Northeast Kingdom attractions include:
- The Cabot Creamery Visitors Center in Cabot, VT
- The Caledonia County Fair, August 26 – 30 in Lyndonville, VT
- The Fairbanks Museum & Planetarium in St. Johnsbury, VT which is northern New England’s Largest Museum of Natural History
- Horse farms and maple syrup farms
Montpelier, the capital of the State of Vermont, and all that it has to offer is also only an hours drive to the west.
For those who need to rent an RV for a Vermont RV camping adventure, El Monte RV can provide the perfect motorhome from its Boston RV Rentals location, which is actually in Sutton, MA. From there it is a beautiful, scenic, 3 1/2 hour drive north to our friends at Harvey’s Lake Cabins and Campground.
Other RV Campgrounds should feel free to share with us the wonders that may be found in and around their campground. Please send your article submissions to monty@elmonterv.com.
