Silver Lake State Park

Camped June 22-24th in a small camper. Got the last spot in this pristine campground on a beautiful lake. We arrived late afternoon and kayaked around the lake. The water is crystal clear. We brought our own kayaks but you can rent kayaks, canoes and paddle boats at the lake too. Our campsite was very clean and partially wooded, unfortunately along side a road. We walked around the campground and there were plenty of sites and lean tos that were probably much quieter which we took note for next time. Bathrooms were clean and the pay showers were amazing. .50cents for 5 minutes and so on. We hiked Mount Mansfield at had dinner one night at the Von Trapp Brewery. We will definitely come back here.

Nice place. Winter parking is at the town office. Just down the road. @bethy_the_vt_hiker

We went there for the first time after the season ended and found ourselves at the closed gate of a private camping weekend. The folks there were so kind and allowed us entrance. The beach is small and perfect, the water was not weed filled even for almost early fall. We kayaked and swam the entire lake. Very friendly locals as well came to say hi during our visit. We will definitely be back for hiking and more water sports!

A very clean park! The water was crystal clear. Lots of things to do including swimming, tubing, canoing, kayaking, bbqing, fishing or just relaxing on the benches

Well-maintained, manicured park. Beautiful lake, campground has wooded tent sites and lean tos. Super quiet at night ( after the kids go down) except for the occasional owl hooting. All kinds of watercraft rentals. Concession stand for food. Dogs allowed in section of beach and lake. Easy-going park manager Katie does a great job..

Another great camping trip to Silver Lake! We have been coming for years and hope to continue to do so for years to come. Hunter at the front desk and all the employees were very nice and helpful! Such a peaceful get away so close to home, with a little country store near by. Highly recommend it!

Plenty of shaded picnic areas along the lake and a nice little beach to swim in. They rent canoes, kayaks, paddle boats and paddle boards. The Barnard General Store is a short kayak ride away. Had a great time camping here.

A BEAUTIFUL place to spend a day.. or... a week if camping. This small quiet State Park, situated close to the dead-center of Vermont is a perfect spot for fishing, kayaking, paddling or swimming for kids and adults alike. Vermont residents over the age of 50 are admitted free for the day-use area via the Green Mountain Passport from their local Town Clerk.
