About
Dolly Copp Campground sits in a mixed hardwood, spruce, and pine forest at the base of New England's tallest peak. The Peabody River and Culhane Brook pass through the facility, offering brook trout fishing opportunities. The surrounding White Mountain National Forest encompasses nearly 800,000 acres across New Hampshire and western Maine, making it one of the most visited forests in the country. The campground offers a range of site types including tent-only nonelectric, standard nonelectric, and standard electric sites with 30/50-amp hookups. Sites feature accessible picnic tables and fire rings. Maximum vehicle lengths vary by site, with some accommodating up to 45 feet. The facility includes coin-operated showers, flush toilets, and potable water throughout. Educational programs are presented on weekends during July and August. Numerous hiking trails, mountain biking routes, and rock climbing areas are within a short drive. The Mount Washington Auto Road offers guided tours or self-drive options to the summit.
