Milan Hill State Park Reopened

[Andrew]

After a three year hiatus for redevelopment. This quiet primitive hilltop campground, situated for convenient access to the northern Whites and North Country is open for campers.

Four of six first come- first served campsites are open and signed for easy access from a loop road. 2 more sites with short hikes in are almost complete. There are pit toilets and water available at hydrants throughout the loop. No showers or flush toilets, but they may be reopened in the future. There is a self pay iron ranger for camping permits.

Four yurts are also available by advanced reservation only. Winter use is being considered, and would be by XC or snowshoe access from the Nansen XC trail network in the park.

Check it out as this is the type of campground I always seek.

Amazing, I had thought this park would be on the hit list as too small to administer efficiently

I remember Milan State Park fondly. I came off the Cohos Trail and spent a stormy night under the pavilion by the big stone fireplace. I had the place entirely to myself. Always meant to go back.

I am suprised it "made the cut". I can walk to the back of it from our camp and do often. Rarely is there anybody there. Nice spot, though.

Has much to do with a lot of interest in bringing any additional interest and visits to the Berlin area, and what Nansen XC has done in the park. A greater XC network is being talked about that will link to local B&B.

With the loss of the Philips Brook yurt facilities, this brought back something similar- yurts were the driving force for the rest of the campground.

The Phillips Brook yurts were open in winter, these unfortunately are not according to nhstateparks.org.
