New England Area Named Among The Best Cabin Spots In America

Author Jeff Gorra
August 28th 5:45 PM

There is something instantly relaxing about staying in a cabin. They are typically in a quiet and serene setting covered by nature. Cabin Life recently published the 10 best cabin destinations in the country and a New England spot made the list.

“Cabin getaways can satisfy the needs and wants of both outdoor lovers and luxury travelers,” they said. Opting for a cabin provides you with the luxury of not having to pack or pitch a tent. In addition, most come with the comfort of your own bathroom, small dining area, and lounge space in case of rain. Of course that comes at a price as cabin life is certainly more expensive than bringing your own tent. And, cabins in some cases also allow you to settle down in outdoor locations that can’t always accommodate a tent.

When you envision arriving at a cabin, you most likely picture a brown log wood-like exterior filled with bunk beds and a small porch area. It can be situated along a lake or on the peak of a mountain. Regardless, there is a stillness to the environment. Your next few days will then be filled with lake swims, hikes, skiing, grilling, smores, or maybe just reading a book inside. Whatever you choose, your cabin is the haven that enables all of those memorable activities that are synonymous with the escape.

The New England area named among the best cabin destinations happens to be in Vermont. It enables you to enjoy the “ski capital of East” in the Winter, and the tree-laced hiking trails in the summer.

Stowe

“A charming town nestled at the foot of Mount Mansfield in northern Vermont,” is how Cabin Life describes Stowe. This area offers standalone cabins that spill out right onto the mountain range, or cabin-style hotels. Stowe Country Homes can guide you through cabin rentals of various kinds. They describe the local cabin-life to be filled with “warm and inviting elements, such as alpine-themed décor, stone fireplaces, hardwood floors adorned in cushy rugs, and details of knotty pine, accentuate the nostalgic and dream-like atmosphere.”

Stowe’s first settlers go back to 1793. Since then, their ski mountain has become the most popular in the northeast. In addition to the 117 different ski trails, there are gondola rides to enjoy on the off-season and warmer months as well. All of this is accessible when staying in one of the many cabin destinations.

Six Of New England's Best RV Sites

Now that it is officially summer, it’s only natural to start daydreaming about your getaway plans. In the northeast, we are fortunate to have many waterside areas that are ideal for campsites. Here, we are featuring six of the best RV sites in New England to explore.

We will highlight one RV site per New England state. Each of them are unique in their own right. But they all contain the essentials that you look for in a site.

Accommodations

Recreational vehicles offer their own living quarters. So when going through the various location options, lodging accommodations were not of the utmost importance. What was, however, is ample space to comfortably park your RV. Ideally, these sites offer the ability to leverage your vehicle as simply a resting stop to call it a day in. In addition, it was imperative the sites also are flexible enough that you can pull start up the RV and pull out and drive around where need be.

Amenities

Once you have your spot, the surrounding environment is equally as important. Being lakeside is always a plus. Furthermore, RV and campsites are synonymous with families. Having a playground or firepit to cook up some smores is also encouraged. This area of the methodology responds to a simple question – what is there to do when you are not inside the RV?

The assumption is that regardless of where you go, there are trails to navigate the many New England mountain ranges adjacent to the best RV sites. A nice hike up to earn the appetite to grill hot dogs is a major site seller. The same holds true for bike paths.

Lastly, when settling on these six best RV sites in New England, they have to be a picture of fun, and represent a place that you can’t wait to return to.

  • Massachusetts - Pine Lake RV Resort

    These grounds were completely renovated and reopened in November 2020. It is located in Sturbridge, which is in the south-central region of the state. There is an eight-acre lake onsite, a large pool, and an indoor recreation center for movies and games. Pine Lake also has cottages that you can rent.

  • Connecticut - Acres High RV Park

    Labeled a “luxurious camping resort,” Acres High is open year round. It is located in East Lyme, CT off Chesterfield Rd. There’s a large fishing pond that has a beach area on the south side and a brook with paddle boats available. There are great hikes right at the base of the grounds. Moreover, if you’d like to explore attractions in close proximity to the park, Foxwoods Casino and the Children’s Museum are a close drive.

  • Rhode Island - Ashaway RV Resort

    Settled peacefully near Westerly, RI, Ashaway inspires relaxation. It’s more of a flat ground, but does allow bikes to explore the all the sites. You can chill with your feet up at Ashaway or you can be very active. There are go-carts, basketball courts, pickleball, tennis, volleyball, and mini-golf.

  • New Hampshire - Sea Coast Camping and RV Resort

    There are 152 campsites with 65 full hookups for RV’s. Sea Coast is right off US Route 1 in North Hampton, NH. It is surrounded by green trees. The closest shoreline beach is just four miles from the grounds. Onsite they are pet friendly and offer a large playground. While there is not a ton of swimming options outside your door, this is a great location to hit multiple New Hampshire vacation favorites. In addition to the stretches of beach, Portsmouth is only eight miles up the road.

    Sugar Ridge is settled on 68 acres of maple and pine trees. You can even rent 40-foot campers at this family-friendly village. It is located on Old Stagecoach Rd. in Danville, VT. There are two swimming pools, horse wagon rides, and dedicated hiking and bike trails. Sugar Ridge organizes daily activities you can partake in as well.

  • Maine - Balsam Woods, Spacious Skies

    Spacious Skies has two locations in Maine, however, Balsam Woods is where RV’s go to really feel the spacious sky overhead. This is in Abbot, Maine, and while you share the grounds with cabins, you have the choice to pull your RV up to a woods or non-woods site. Regardless, there are miles of hiking trails. As for unique amenities – gem mining or jumping on a giant pillow trampoline anyone?
