About Half Moon Pond State Park

Campsites sit directly on Half Moon Pond, within the wooded grounds of the much larger 3,576-acre Bomoseen State Park. The land lies in the town of Hubbardton rather than Castleton, and the park is also referred to as Half Moon State Park. Campers stay among trees surrounding the pond itself, set inside this larger protected tract.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
