Markham Meadows Campground

When you camp at Markham Meadows Campground, you'll be in a prime position to explore the breathtaking countryside of central Connecticut, from its enchanting parks by the Connecticut River to the sizable chunks of forest found between its metro areas. The RV park is located between two amazing state parks. Day Pond State Park is named for the Day family homestead, built by the pond. Some foundational stones from the ruins can be seen while hiking along the shores of Day Pond, and there is lots of swimming, fishing, kayaking, and mountain biking to do while stopping by. Hurd State Park is also found in East Hampton along the Connecticut River, with dazzling views and plenty of space to swim, boat, or go fishing. The park is named for the Hurd family, who established a homestead of their own during the early 18th century. Millers Pond State Park is found on the other side of the Connecticut River. The pond is a fantastic place to swim, and it has some of the best fishing in the entire state if you like catching trout, bass, and other freshwater fish either from the banks of its small coves or in the middle while boating around. Hiking, biking, and hunting are also options when visiting the park with your East Hampton campervan rental. Known for being one of the most iconic state parks in the region, Gillette Castle State Park features splendid castle ruins and epic views of the river. The castle belonged to actor William Gillette. Take pictures in the stone ruins, hike to the peak of the hill for incredible vantage points, or visit the on-site museum to learn about the park, the castle, and the surrounding nature areas.
