White River Junction, Vermont Campground | Quechee / Pine Valley KOA

This KOA welcomes vacationers exploring numerous area attractions as well as weary travelers needing a convenient overnight stop.

Mention the Gateway to New England and the Quechee KOA comes to mind. Otherwise known as the "Gateway KOA" we are nestled in the breathtaking Upper Valley of Central Vermont. In addition to our spacious, level Big Rig friendly pull thru's we have multiple lodging choices for our friends who don't camp. Our beautiful deluxe cabins, most with full bathrooms, kitchenettes and flat screen tv's sleep up to 6 people. Now that's camping! We make it easy for you to stretch out, unwind, relax and create your base camp to explore charming New England. We are an award winning, highly rated, top notch KOA within easy reach of numerous destinations and serve as home base for travelers exploring all of New England.

Not only are we famous for our Quechee Gorge, "The Little Grand Canyon of New England," we are also famous for our annual Quechee Balloon Festival which takes place every June on Father's Day Weekend. Thrill seekers can catch a ride on a hot air balloon in scenic Quechee or visit the ever popular Billings Farm & Museum and Vermonts only National Park, The Marsh Billings Rockefeller National Historic Park in nearby historic Woodstock. The Montshire Museum of Science rated one of the top 25 science centers in the country by Parent Magazine is a neighbor, as well as the Vermont Institute of Natural Science which has a fantastic Raptor Exhibit featuring the Northeast's largest collection of birds of prey.

Numerous food destinations abound, including the notorious Ben & Jerry's ice cream factory, and King Arthur Flour which has an onsite café, baker's store and baking education center. Local breweries, Long Trail and Harpoon, are "adult destination" favorites.

Want to stretch your legs? The Appalachian Trail and the renowned Long Trail of VT will keep the novice as well as the avid hiker busy. Of course, you can always relax back at camp in one of our sparkling deluxe cabins, take a swim in the heated pool, fish or canoe in our trout pond or just sit and enjoy the shaded breeze from the trees. Make us your home base to see New England and it won't take long to realize why visitors call us the "Gateway KOA!"

Beautiful Campground, Clean and quiet 12/19/2019

We stayed for 10 nights in a cabin. I have returned to this KOA for the past 5-6 yrs. Each time I walk into my cabin I say, "I'm home!" Mike and CIndy are always welcoming. It is a lovely campground. I visit by myself, or a daughter comes with me... 10/31/2019

We stayed at Quechee/Pine Valley as part of our Autumn Color trip. It was a very nice campground in a great location. 10/30/2019

The annual Halloween weekend is our camping event of the year! Cindy, Mike, & staff do an outstanding job. From the time you arrive at the campground, till the time you leave, it's all about kids (and adults) having a good time. Campers decorating their sites... 10/25/2019

As always a great stay....A very well run, clean, and modern campground, with a friendly staff. 10/25/2019

We love Cindy and Mike! We've been going there for 9 years and we plan on returning year after year. 10/21/2019

As per prior years, the Pine Valley KOA has maintained the highest standards, cleanest facilities, and the friendliest most responsive staff. They should be highly proud of their facility and efforts. We applaud the Halloween fun that comes with this particular weekend. 10/21/2019
