OXBOW Campground
OXBOW Campground welcomes you to its Web Site. Oxbow,
providing great camping since 1972. Oxbow is owned and
operated by Tom & Mary Irving and their children, Kayla &
Thomas. They welcome you to come and enjoy the camping
experience you deserve
Every effort is made to ensure that your stay is
peaceful and enjoyable. Our sites are designed to
provide maximum practical space and privacy. Experienced
travelers frequently compliment the design, quality and
convenience of Oxbow's sites and hookups.
Oxbow offers a traditional mix of recreational
opportunities for both adults and children. Facilities
include a swimming pond with a sandy bottom and beach
perfect for sandcastles. The pavilion overlooks both the
beach and play area. There is a recreation
room with pool tables, video games, electronic
basketball and cable TV. Downstairs at the Welcome Hall
is where you will find a lot of Oxbow's food events. Everything from a
traditional breakfast to Chicken BBQ, pot luck mixers
and lobster specials as well. The big news for 2006 is
the upgrade of twenty-one sites just across the line in
Hillsboro. Eight of them have direct access, frontage,
on the boating pond. With one exception, these sites are
well shaded. All of them offer 50 amp electric
hookups,deep shutoff water as well as sewer. Any of
these sites will comfortably accommodate the largest
unit one can legally drive or tow. This is why we refer
to them as our "super sites." Four of them, including
two on the waterfront, are reserved for short to medium
term use. We invite you to come to see them, but beware;
you will not want to go home without signing up for one!
During the spring/summer/fall season, you will find a
wide variety of sponsored events and activities. There's
bingo, ice cream socials, campfire socials, holiday
fireworks display, horseback rides, fishing derby,
pumpkin carving, campground yard sales, nature walks and
food events of all kinds, some accompanied by live
entertainment. Our bigger events are lobsterfest,
balloonfest, and chicken barbecue. Please see the
Activities section for more information. Whether you are
single, a retired couple or a large family, Oxbow has
something for you.
The Monadnock Region is graced with spectacular spring &
fall seasons. Mothers Day Weekend has the Sheep & Wool
Festival and the fall season has the Foliage Festivals.
The benefits to spring & fall camping, less crowds, less
traffic & more sites to choose from. Some of the area
attractions include, golf, tennis, biking, hiking,
fishing, boating, horseback riding, swimming, theater
and summer playhouses in the area. The Monadnock area
has plenty to do, we just do it in a more historic,
stately manner.
