    Townshend State Park does not have a beach, playground or multiple pavilions for rent ~ it's a very common mistake. These amenities can be found at nearby Townshend Lake Day Use Area and are...

    Early summer, springtime, you'll see lots of butterflies on the "beach". The lake is bordered by a dam and the view of the Vermont Hillside is amazing.

    This place is pretty nice. I definitely had a memorable weekend there. The bald mountain trail is pretty challenging to hike especially close to the top. The picture I attached is one view from the end of the trail. The campsites are a nice size and the bathrooms, showers, and water spigots are easily within walking distance no matter where you end up staying. You are a little close to other campsites but everyone else staying there was courteous about noise at night. If you're on the fence you should pull the trigger.

    ❤️Townshend State Park! Great for camping out at and using as a put-in spot for kayaking/rafting trips on the West River, especially during dam releases. Kicked off an AMAZING Kayaking trip (paddled all the way down to Northampton, MA) here just before I went off to college, and night #1 was camping/putting in @ TSP.
