Encompassing more than 27,000 acres of woodland, the Pachaug State Forest is the largest state forest in Connecticut, and it offers three different campgrounds to choose from. The Mt. Misery Campground and the Green Falls Campground are both relatively small, but they boast peaceful wooded tent sites, and it's possible to fish and swim either right in the campground or somewhere nearby. If you're planning on bringing your horse, you can also stay at the Frog Hollow Horse Camp, which has semi-wooded sites and provides easy access to some of the forest's most beautiful equestrian-friendly trails.
