Discover Burton Island State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips

Burton Island State Park is on a very small island in Lake Champlain in Vermont. It is just off the shoreline near St. Albans Bay and is only accessible by a 10-minute boat or ferry ride. The island has several primitive campsites as well as a few cabins but does not support RV camping. The park is a very popular access point for boaters wanting to explore greater Lake Champlain, and there is a marina within the park with 100 slips and dockside electricity. If you have your own boat, you can use it to access the park instead of riding the ferry.

Brad was easy to work with as first time van campers. The camper was very well provisioned and everything worked as expected. Had to text him one time and he was prompt and helpful. Camper was easy to drive and fairly easy to park. He already had note about height of van on camper driver visor. We were able to explore rural Vermont in comfort. Our dog loved it as well.

We loved being able to travel without needing electricity and the van provided plenty of space, comforts, and camp gear to make traveling unfamiliar states very easy! It was like taking your home with you on vacation! Mike was so great to work with from day one of our rental questions. Pick up and drop off was easy! Excellent host and staying at the Birch & Berry was a huge treat and a great way to start our trip! Can’t wait to book this all again.

My husband and I were first time RVers but wanted to rent a RV for our son’s college parents weekend. Thank God for Carrie! She was amazing and so responsive to all our questions both before and during our trip. The Thor had everything we needed for our long weekend boondocking adventure! I would highly recommend this experience!
