Dolly Copp 170
For the Forth of July (2020) we were fortunate enough for be able to rent the Dolly Copp Pavilion in Pinkham Notch. This gave us the ability to have a gathering of people for a holiday BBQ and be able to social distance.
The ride up to Pinkham Notch is about 2.5 hours from our home in Manchester, NH. So some of us decided to rent a camp site if one was available. So we went to see if there was any open sites at the near by Dolly Copp Campground.
Dolly Copp Campground has about 177 camp sites and right now they are all first come first serve. Once we entered the site we meet up with one of the Camp hosts who said that they might have a few sites for us to choose from.

We told them that we were a group of 6 and han two dogs with us. We were interested in a site that was not real close to other sites. Especially since it was a holiday weekend.
The host recommend site 170. it was a walk-in site located behind their host camper. We took a look and it was secluded compared to other sites. From where we park we had to walk over a small bridge and then up a few stairs to where we wold set up our tents.
The site was flat and had a good amount of room for all our tents. It had a picnic table and fire ring as well. There were trees available if you wanted to a hang a hammock or two. The site was also near flush toilets and showers.
In the morning we took a short walk down the road to see the Centennial Sculpture. This is a spiral wood sculpture that was made from a fallen pine tree on the campground. It was pretty cool and worth walking too.
Our first trip to this campground was short lived but we will be back again. The location is perfect for anyone that wants to spend time in the White Mountains.
