At 381 ft, Crossroads Campground has a 7-month comfortable window (Jan-Dec). Winter nights average around 45°F, so the shoulder seasons turn cold fast. All 26 sites are first-come, first-served. No reservations, so arrive early. Of the sites, 2 pull-through, and the longest takes a 50-ft rig. Within about 4 miles: 2 peaks, lake or river access.

Method
We synthesize public data layers: RIDB and Recreation.gov facility and site records, Open-Meteo climate normals, OpenStreetMap roads, trails, and water, OSRM drive times, and USGS elevation. We take no bookings, no ads, and no paid placements. Independence is the entire point.
