The beautiful panoramic views of the rolling green hill, the refreshing water edges, and historic landmarks make for a memorable trip. During our East Coast summer, we enjoyed spending time exploring Connecticut. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Where can I camp for free in Connecticut?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Free camping in Connecticut can be found on some dispersed camping spots, overnight RV parking, and casinos that allow RVs. For the most part, boondocking in Connecticut is based on the gratuity of private businesses. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n In general, I post about RVing and have written here about places to boondock camp in an RV for free. However, if you would like to stay along the Appalachian Trail, you can camp many places in a tent. Sages Ravine<\/a><\/strong> is a good place for backcountry tent camping. The Appalachian trial runs alongside the ravine and you can hike nearby Bear Mountain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The remainder of the places where you can camp for free in Connecticut are for RV camping. These resources on the blog will help you plan your Connecticut camping trip:<\/p>\n\n\n\n This site features two beach pond boat ramps and lots. One in Connecticut and the other in Rhode Island. There are several color-marked trails for hikers to use. Aside from the nearby beach, there is also a lagoon and some small cliffs that offer beautiful views for anyone looking to take a walk along the shoreline path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n This open-space parking lot features a beautiful view of the Thames River with clean air and easy access to the nearby casino. Any would-be camper interested as a shuttle bus comes around every 20 minutes. Take note that you do need a permit from their site filled out that security will pick up shortly after your arrival. The maximum number of days that you can stay using a single permit is 7 days and requesting an extension requires a new permit. Another thing to note is that the parking space is not level, meaning you will have to bring multiple level blocks depending on your spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBeach Pond Boat Ramp Area- Voluntown, Connecticut<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
