<p dir="ltr">Don&rsquo;t wait to book last minute because this campground limits the number of sites available to maintain a more private and primitive camping experience.

<p dir="ltr">The closest full-service accommodation to Baxter State Park, Big Moose Inn is the perfect home base for a weekend full of outdoor adventure.

Katahdin, which serves as the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail. Hiking to the peak is a popular activity for park visitors, who are rewarded with panoramic views of the surrounding wilderness.</p>
<p dir="ltr">And although the campground is surrounded by this iconic wilderness, Big Moose Park is a destination in its own right. Situated on Millinocket Lake, the campsite is primed for water sports like kayaking, canoeing, fishing, and even white water rafting. Or perhaps you prefer a more relaxing afternoon at the onsite restaurant that officially opens for the season on Memorial Day weekend. Either way, Mt. Katahdin&rsquo;s reflection over the lake provides a welcoming atmosphere for all who visit for the holiday weekend.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr"><span style="color: #169179;"><a style="color: #169179;" href="https://www.spot2nite.com/park/lake-lauderdale-campground-cambridge-ny-new">Lake Lauderdale Campground - Cambridge, NY</a></span></h3>

<p dir="ltr">And to finish off a fun Memorial Day weekend, experience the twists and turns of the Mount Equinox Vermont Skyline Drive, just 16 miles from the campground. This scenic drive takes you to the top of the highest peak in the Taconic Range for stunning vistas of the surrounding area.</p>
