Surrounded on three sides by two brooks and the Dog River, our property covers a bit more than one acre in size. It is situated on a residential road in Riverton (or West Berlin), VT, near route 12, just six miles south of Montpelier, and four miles north of Northfield. So it's rural, but still very close to grocery shopping and laundromat. We have electrical hook-up available. From mid-July through late October, here is WIFI available although the signal is not strong up by the electrical hook-up. It's strongest towards the river. Mountain bike trails are close by. Boyer State Forest is two miles away (for hiking and biking). Norwich University, five miles away in Northfield, has hiking and biking trails. Ellie's Farm Market (one mile distance) has local organic produce in season as well as local cheese and maple products. NOTE: Previous campers have suggested that future campers NOT use Crosstown Road to get here, no matter what your GPS says. One weather event makes it VERY unfriendly to RV's.

Great spot when visiting Montpelier

This is a wonderful spot when visiting the area. Just 10 minutes from downtown Montpelier, it's surrounded by trees and a big grassy area that slopes down to the river. The camp spots are level, and the electric hookup is strong and solid. The hosts are very friendly and communicate quickly.

Easy bike and sweet host!

Had a great time! Exactly what we needed for our one night adventure. Rode bikes into Montpelier, a very easy 6 mile ride on a brand new paved road in. Had a nice campfire at night and left in the morning (: Holly is so sweet and has a great view of the river. Loved her dog as well!

Happy campers!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Dog River Run, the site was exactly what we were looking for! The location is perfect, not to far from town and the scenery this time of year is absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the little bit of seclusion at site 2, as well as our walks down by the river rock hunting. The campsite isn't far from the road and is easy to access from a paved roads, but we did not consider traffic to be heavy or even noticable. There is a train that runs close by, but that was actually something we looked forward to each day after reading other reviews. We had enough extension cords to run from the electrical outlet to the site but do plan on the recommended 150' if you want to park further back for seclusion. Holly was a very welcoming host and we would definitely stay there again!

I loved tent camping at Holly’s! It was a lovely spot by the river that I was able to swim in.

Easy access, right off paved road

Holly is warm, welcoming and helpful! We had the more “open field” site #1 (closest to electrical hook up), which was great for us. Being open makes it easy for any type of RV to get positioned quickly and easily. The other site is long and narrow, trees/shrubs on both sides, a bit lower ground level and tucked in with more privacy. We traveled in a pop up, so the open field area site #1 was perfect for us. There is a gentle grassy, open field slope besides this area - which provided a great safe morning “zoomie-run” area for our two mini Australian Shepherds. The sound of the brook (on one side of the property) was soothing & relaxing. The property is near a train crossing, so there is a late night cargo train that passes… but it is very brief (maybe 2-3 minutes total) , but we don’t mind the sound of passing trains at all! This location is not far from Montpelier, and close access to RT 89. We had a great experience here!
