Vermont State Parks' Top Five: Views
Kingsland Bay State Park

Also located along the shores of Lake Champlain is Kingsland Bay State Park.  Situated on a quiet bay, this park has expansive lawns, large swimming area, canoe and kayak rentals, a large hall with fireplace and million-dollar views of Lake Champlain in an estate-like setting. 

Formerly an elite girl’s camp that Jackie Onassis once attended, this park is the most popular wedding venue in the Vermont State Park system. 

There are also two primitive, remote campsites just offshore that are part of the Lake Champlain Paddlers Trail.  A kid-friendly nature trail takes you out to the end of MacDonough Point and back.  Not far from the park, is access to Otter Creek, a favorite paddling spot for nature lovers. 

Reservations for the event hall can be made up to eleven months in advance by calling the central reservations call center at 1-888-409-7579 Monday – Friday 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM.
