Foothills family campground is a pretty compact thickly settled little campground. We were on site #51 which is in the back corner, maybe 50 feet to route 16, the site was beautiful and very flat and had nice gravel, but holy moly the car noise was loud enough that you couldn’t hold a conversation outdoors if cars were going right by. Luckily our camper is small (less than 20 feet in length) and could maneuver close to the power and water pedestal, but if you have a larger camper and only carry a 25’ power cord, you may be having to run out and buy a 50’. The speed limit is 5MPH, and at site #50 if you pass by going aprox. 6MPH they will all start hooting and hollering at you to slow down, like they are running radar guns, even though they had no problem parking in our campsite and when I asked them to move they had every excuse under the sun as to why they were parked there, typical seasonal folks who think they run the campground. The owners of the campground were very nice and pleasant and you can tell they have a presence on the campground, the camp store is very reasonably
Priced and they will even deliver your firewood to your site, extremely nice. The last thing… the dumping station for those who don’t have sewer at their site is a bit interesting, it’s not where the map shows it, it’s directly in front of the bathhouse, you have to go against the one ways and traffic flows established to lineup your camper black/gray connections, and then the kicker is what you think is a black tank flush on a post right there, is just a redneck backflow preventer that flows into a homemade PVC pipe with a hose connection on it that is filled with leaves and debris and just gives you enough to flush out our sewer hoses. Overall our time at foothills was pretty good, no major complaints just some things that could be better, it’s in a great location to establish a base camp for activities in the north country. Definitely consider this campground, just note the things in my review as to what you could be in for.
