Getting Outdoors

Head an hour's drive south with the Newcomb camper rental, and you can check out the Hudson Gorge Wilderness. The area is named after both the Hudson River and the gorge it passes through, which is located in the center of the wilderness. This section of the river has many rapids and cascades, leading to its designation as a wild river, while the parts above and below the gorge are classified as scenic rivers. The Hudson Gorge Wilderness, located near the town of Indian Lake, is a popular destination for kayakers and has something to offer all skill levels, from beginner to expert. The wilderness is also a good choice for hiking and primitive camping.

Camping at Lake Harris Campground

The campground is situated on the northern shore of Lake Harris. It is surrounded by hardwood trees that change in color with the seasons. Many of the Lake Harris campsites are located along the water's edge, and campground amenities include restrooms with hot showers and flush toilets, a dump station and recycling center, a boat launch, and a picnic area. If you'd like to go fishing or take a trip out on the lake, you can rent rowboats and canoes on site. If chilling out and taking in the atmosphere is your preference, the campground has firewood for sale.

Exploring the Area

Elizabethtown is a small town that was named after the wife of one of the earliest settlers; despite its size, the town has two landmarks that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places (the Hand-Hale Historic District and Hubbard Hall). It's also home to the Adirondack History Centre Museum, which has exhibits documenting the history of the area, nature trails, and gardens where you can sit and enjoy the serenity of the landscape. The town has a handful of restaurants (and more nearby), providing a selection of your favorite comfort foods. One of the advantages of Lake Harris Campground camping is being able to grab a takeout order of your dinner and enjoy it in the comfort and privacy of your temporary home-on-wheels.

We had a great time driving and staying in Thor as we spent a beautiful long weekend in the North East Kingdom of Vermont enjoying the autumn foliage. Carrie was a terrific and responsive host.

Very nice camper van. Mercedes Sprinter Chassis had tons of power and zero lag uphill. Long roadtrip to Maine was comfortable and all hookup gear was included. Vincent gave us a thorough walkthrough prior to leaving, allowed us to video and was an overall super nice guy. Despite this being an older rig everything worked well. Bed was extremely comfortable. Highly recommend renting this van.
