Discover Wilgus State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips

In 1933, Colonel William Wilgus and his wife donated some land to Vermont. Wilgus is best known for designing New York City’s Grand Central Terminal train station. This land later was officially established as Wilgus State Park in the late 1930s. Civilian Conservation Corps, as a part of the New Deal, dreamed up by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, built several buildings and amenities in the park. In addition to the cabins, they also built 12 fireplaces for campers to use and seven water fountains. The RV campground was created in the 1960s to provide people with trailers a place to safely park overnight.

Getting Outdoors

In spite of its diminutive size, Wilgus State Park is highly regarded for the beautiful scenery as well as easy access to the water. A small boat launch, suitable for kayaks, canoes, and flotation tubes, invites swimming, boating, and fishing on the mighty Connecticut River. The park office has canoes and kayaks available for rent, and it also participates in the state-run loaner rods program. When the office is not busy, the park rangers are known to help visitors with fishing basics. Anglers can expect to catch trout, bullhead catfish, and panfish, all of which are delicious when cooked over a campfire.

Camping at Wilgus State Park

Skip the long commute from a hotel by renting a camper at Wilgus State Park. In the comfort of a warm and dry travel trailer rental, listen to the pitter-patter of raindrops on the roof. Birdsong provides the ambient background sound while you ready to launch on a boating trip. Wilgus State Park RV campground has 17 sites, all of which are primitive. However, there are water spigots and restrooms available. Campers can also use a dump station if need be.

Exploring the Area

Hop into a motorhome rental and join the thousands of other leaf peepers roaming the winding roads of Vermont. Head up north, following the contours of Connecticut River and explore the charming mountain towns and its various attractions along the way. In Windsor, VT is an unusual garden called the Path of Life Sculpture Garden. Visitors study or meditate on the sculptures along their journey into the garden. Just across the river, the Saint-Gaudens National Historical Park, the home of famed artist Augustus Saint-Gaudens, in Cornish, NH, is open to the public for guided tours.
