Maidstone State Park
Maidstone State Park, State park on Maidstone Lake, Vermont, United States.
Maidstone State Park is a state park in Vermont centered on a 279-acre lake surrounded by mixed northern hardwood forest. The park provides multiple natural environments suited for various outdoor activities throughout the year.
The Vermont state government purchased the land in 1938 from the New Hampshire and Vermont Lumber Company to create a public recreation area. This acquisition transformed industrial land into a park open to all.
The park serves as a traditional outdoor recreation space where visitors engage in fishing, camping, swimming, and wildlife observation throughout the seasons. It remains an important place for people to spend leisure time connecting with nature in the Vermont landscape.
The park offers camping with tent sites and lean-to shelters, plus facilities including showers, flush toilets, and a picnic pavilion. Visitors should plan for a multi-day stay and expect it to be busy during peak season.
The lake supports a population of lake trout that thrive in its deep, cold waters. The water body formed around 12,000 years ago through glacial processes, giving it ecological character.
