If your idea of camping is a quiet family campground, then you've come to the right place. Just north of the town of Arlington on Historic Route 7A you'll find Camping on the Battenkill. The campground has been owned and operated by the Pratt Family for over fifty years.
The Battenkill is known as one of the best trout streams in the East. The challenge is in landing the native trout that reside in the stream. Swimming in the campground is done at the natural swimming hole in the Battenkill where the water is clear and refreshing. For little children who need a quiet area for swimming, there is the local recreational park, located 1000 feet from the campground. Many campers enjoy bringing their own tubes or canoes and floating down the river. Children and adults alike enjoy our open field for playing ball games, swinging on the swings, or digging in the sand pile.
Camping on the Battenkill
When I was a kid, we used to camp at this great campground in Arlington, VT almost every year. Now, 35 years later, I take my kids there every year. But this video is for my sister, who lives in Texas now and hasn't been able to visit Vermont in many years. This is meant to be a stroll through the campground, from the entrance to the swimming hole at the river; I condensed about 20 minutes of video down to 10. I hope this brings back good memories! The soundtrack consists of the Beach Boys (Let's Get Away For Awhile), Buffalo Springfield (Kahuna Sunset), and R.E.M. (Endgame), with a bit of the Beach Boys (Diamond Head) at the end.

Battenkill JUMP ! June 18, 2016
Had a great time floating the Battenkill River on Father's Day Weekend. The safety of jumping off the bridge was questionable, but definitely fun for all!
