Discover Fort Dummer State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips
Fort Dummer, in Vermont, was built in 1724 during Dummer’s War, a series of conflicts between New England and the Wabanaki Confederacy, which was allied with France. The fort is the first known permanent European settlement in Vermont. Unfortunately, when Vernon Dam was constructed on the Connecticut River, it flooded the original site of the fort. From a certain viewpoint in the park, however, it is possible to see the original site, which is underwater, when the river is calm.

Getting Outdoors
Fort Dummer State Park is a small but refreshing retreat from the busy suburbs. Red, white, and chestnut oaks, beech, maple, and birch trees tower overhead. The leaves on their branches reach out to one another, forming a dense canopy that filters daylight in dappled streaks. In autumn, the leaves transform from verdant green to a blaze of red, gold, and bronze. Photographers and nature lovers will enjoy wandering through this park’s three trails in pursuit of the perfect spot to enjoy the leaves. One trail, aptly named Sunrise Trail, meanders eastward, up toward a summit that faces the dawn. There, the foundations of the long-gone drowned fort can be seen on a calm day, usually in late summer. One of the other trails leads to a swimming hole. On three sides of the hole, sheer granite slabs rise, cradling the crystal clear water.
Camping at Fort Dummer State Park
Skip staying at hotels and get closer to nature by renting a camper at Fort Dummer State Park. In the comforts of your temporary home, listen to the sounds of wildlife. Birds sing to one another as they herald the sunrise. Winds set the trees overhead a-fluttering. Crickets and frogs croon as they ready for the coming of the night. Fort Dummer State Park RV campground has around 50 sites that are lined with heavy vegetation and shrubbery. The natural walls that line each site blocks the views of your neighbors, further adding to the sense of solitude and quiet.
Exploring the Area
Slip past Brattleboro and join the other leaf peepers on the Connecticut River Byway. In the comforts of a rental motorhome, effortlessly navigate the twisting mountain road as it follows the contours of the river. Stop in remote mountain towns and search for quaint artists’ shops, boutique stores, and shops featuring vintage goods that can be hundreds of years old. Green Mountain Spinnery in Putney is a long-standing yarn shop that spins their yarns by hand. Their staff will happily demonstrate the ancient art. Watching the wheel whir away as they magically form yarn out of cottony fleece is hypnotic.

We loved our experience working with Nikol and John. They were super accommodating even when we had a few last minute changes. They made the whole process seamless, we'd definitely rent with them again. The camper was also spotless, in great shape, and we had zero issues.

I often enjoy camping using my RV. The RV campsite was nice and the vehicle was nice. However, one thing that was disappointing was that it was not announced in advance that there would be no camping folding chairs, grills, etc. Of course, I brought chairs, a grill, and even pond coffee.
