About
Crocker Pond Campground is a small, secluded camping area located in the Androscoggin Ranger District of White Mountain National Forest. The seven campsites sit beneath towering white pines on the edge of Crocker Pond, offering a peaceful setting for those seeking solitude in the Maine woods. The campground provides basic amenities including vault toilets and potable water. From here, campers can access the Albany Brook Trail, an easy one-mile path that follows the west shore of Crocker Pond with gentle undulations through the forest. Crocker Pond and several nearby ponds feature boat launches suitable for non-motorized watercraft, making this an excellent base for fishing and paddling. All sites are first-come, first-served with no reservations accepted. The campground is accessed via a half-mile dirt road off Flat Road, which itself is reached from Route 2 in West Bethel.
Directions
From Route 2 in West Bethel, ME, turn onto Flat Road (across from the Post Office). Continue straight for 5.8 miles, then turn right onto a 0.5-mile dirt road to reach the campground.
