Abstract

As part of its forest recreation research, the Northeastern Forest Experiment Station in the summer of 1964 made a survey of all privately owned campgrounds in New Hampshire, in cooperation with the New Hampshire State Planning Project. The purpose of the survey was to find out what characteristics of campgrounds - and campground management - lead to success.
