Pine Hollow Campground

Campground in Pownal, VT • 51 RV Sites

In Pownal, Vermont—at the far southwestern corner of the Green Mountain State where the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts extend north into the wooded hollows and pine-covered ridges of Bennington County—Pine Hollow Campground occupies a small, scenic valley less than 10 miles from both Bennington, Vermont and Williamstown, Massachusetts, offering full hookup sites large enough for big rigs and slide-outs, a spring-fed stocked trout pond with paddleboat rentals, a green meadow bordered by towering pines, and the quiet, genuine New England campground character that feels increasingly rare in a region where the best sites have been commercialized into destination resorts. Pine Hollow is a campground, plainly and beautifully, in the right setting. Full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer accommodate rigs of all sizes, and two pull-through sites provide the drive-through accessibility that the largest motorhomes require. A playground, pavilion, laundry, bathrooms, showers, general store, firewood, dump station, and WiFi cover the practical infrastructure without excess. The spring-fed pond, stocked with trout for catch-and-release fishing, provides the immediate angling entertainment that a campground pond with actual fish produces—no fishing license required, no drive to a distant lake, just a rod and the quiet of the water in the pine-surrounded valley. Paddleboat rentals extend the pond's recreational use to non-fishing guests who simply want to be on the water. Pownal sits at the junction of the Green Mountain National Forest's southern reach, the Taconic Mountains' Vermont extension, and the Berkshire plateau's northern edge—a geographic convergence that creates the rounded, forested terrain of extreme southwestern Vermont where the hills feel older and more intimate than the dramatic ridges of the higher Green Mountains to the north. The surrounding landscape's character reflects the Hoosic River valley's position in the transition zone between the Berkshires' broad highland terrain and the Taconic Range's linear ridges, creating the mixed forest of northern hardwoods, hemlock, and white pine that gives Pine Hollow its name and its character. Bennington, under 10 miles north, combines Vermont's Revolutionary War heritage with the state's most significant arts history—the Bennington Battle Monument, rising 306 feet above the town in the tallest man-made structure in Vermont, commemorates the 1777 battle that turned the tide of the Saratoga campaign, while the Bennington Museum houses the nation's largest public collection of Grandma Moses paintings and documents Vermont's folk art tradition. Williamstown, Massachusetts, 10 miles south across the state line, contributes the Clark Art Institute—one of the finest small art museums in America—and the Williamstown Theatre Festival, one of the country's most respected regional theaters, operating through the summer season in Williams College's campus venues. Pine Hollow operates seasonally from spring through fall in Vermont's green-season camping calendar, with the June through August summer period providing the warmest temperatures and the busiest activity on the pond and the surrounding hiking trails. Fall foliage in Bennington County typically peaks in early to mid-October, when the drive from Pine Hollow to Bennington's covered bridge at Paper Mill Village Road or north toward the Green Mountain National Forest reveals the sugar maple, yellow birch, and beech color that makes Vermont's fall one of the most celebrated seasonal events in New England. Reserve your site at Pine Hollow and let the spring-fed pond and the quiet hollow's pine-scented air deliver the genuine Vermont camping experience that the corner of the state most visitors never reach.
