Set along the west shore of Lake Dunmore in Salisbury, Vermont, Waterhouses offers a multifaceted outdoor adventure hub with lodging, a campground, and a full-service marina. This property caters to families, RV travelers, and those seeking a blend of lakeside recreation and practical camping comforts in the heart of the Green Mountains. The campground’s ample spaces, especially popular among RV users, feature level gravel pads equipped with fire pits, while the clean, well-maintained restrooms and showers ensure a hassle-free stay. Guests regularly praise the friendly and helpful staff who keep the grounds in order and support activities such as renting boats and picking up essentials at the camp store.

Just across the road from the campground, the Waterhouses beach invites visitors to swim or launch kayaks, canoes, and motorboats from the marina. The lake itself, a glacially-formed body of brimstone-blue water surrounded by rugged forest, offers calm waters perfect for paddling, fishing, or simply soaking in the expansive views. It's also a stone’s throw from Branbury State Park, which includes access to boundless trails like those circling Silver Lake, making it an ideal basecamp for day hikes or family outings.

The restaurant’s outdoor patio serves as a casual spot to refuel with freshwater views and seasonal menus that lean on fresh local ingredients. Recent visitors highlight the shrimp salad special and prompt, courteous service — a welcome downtime after active days outdoors.

While the site buzzes with lively family energy and the occasional late-night maintenance, it’s this blend of convenience, community feel, and lakeside access that makes Waterhouses a standout choice for Vermont travelers focused on nature, water sports, and camping comfort. Its location anchors it as a gateway not only to Lake Dunmore but to the broader outdoor appeal of Vermont's central recreational corridor.
