Getting Outdoors

Lake Carmi encompasses 1,375 acres and is currently the fourth-largest lake in Vermont. Ringed by low, green hills, the lake is calm and serene. Kayaking, canoeing, and fishing are popular activities. The park office operates a boat rental at which adventurers can borrow kayaks, canoes, rowboats, and stand-up paddle (SUP) boards. There is a boat launch that makes accessing the waterway easy. As a warm-water lake, anglers can expect to catch northern pike, walleye, and a few other species. Lake Carmi State Park also participates in Vermont’s “Reel Fun” program, which is a program to introduce people to the joys of fishing. Loaner rods, reels, and other accessories can be obtained at the park office, and the rangers often run demonstration events and classes.

Camping at Lake Carmi State Park

Skip enduring leaky tents and sleeping on the uncomfortable ground, and wake up in the comforts of a rental campervan. When you rent a travel trailer, you can get closer to nature. Listen to birdsongs in the wee hours of the morning and the croaks of bullfrogs in the evenings. On quiet evenings, watch for deer to emerge from the woods to sip the lakewater.

Exploring the Area

Though Lake Carmi State Park is in a very rural, far northern part of Vermont, there’s plenty of attractions within an hour or less. Traveling from town to town on the rolling country roads is made painless by renting a motorhome. Across the United States-Canada border is Granby Zoo (Zoo de Granby) in Granby, QC. Over 1,500 wild animals have made Granby Zoo their home. A shortlist of animals includes giant pacific octopus, white rhinoceros, Amur tiger, and Andean condor.

Nous avons littéralement adoré notre expérience avec le van de Simon. La literie était très confortable, tout comme les sièges. Il est également tres bien équipé (toute la vaisselle, planche a découper, couteau de cuisine etc)
Je confirme également le côté vintage que nous avons adoré et côté moteur tout roule comme sur des roulettes ! Nous avons fait un peu moins de 2000km et nous sommes toujours sentis en sécurité.
Simon a toujours été tres disponible que ce soit avant ou pendant notre voyage et ses vidéos explicatives sont également tres appréciables.
Nous reviendrons au Canada c'est sûr et relouerons le Van de Simon :)

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.
