Molly Stark State Park, Wilmington, Vermont

Mount Olga Firetower View

Molly Stark State Park, just outside of Wilmington, Vermont, was our first Vermont State Park.  At only 148 acres, it is smallish. What I'd call a pocket park. But what it lacks in acreage, it makes up for in quality of sites and amenities. 

Molly Stark has 23 tent/RV sites and 11 lean-to sites. Sites are all dry camping, no electric, no water, no sewer. The sites are all nicely spaced and carved out of the forest with attention to privacy. There's also a relatively new (2 years old) bath house with 4 showers, a place to get fresh water and a convenient dump station for RV's.

One of the best parts of the park is the Mount Olga hiking loop trial with a spur trail leading up to a fire tower that gives one who climbs it a spectacular 360 view of the surrounding area. When we're back through Vermont, this park will definitely be on our list of places to park Miranda.
