About Spacious Skies French Pond

Spacious Skies French Pond is a year-round campground on the shore of French Pond, roughly five miles north of Pats Peak and a short drive from Henniker and Concord. While primarily operating as an RV and tent camping destination, its full-hookup sites support extended stays for certified tiny homes on wheels and park model RVs.

The campground is centered on outdoor recreation with direct access to French Pond for kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing, along with a saltwater pool, event pavilion, camp store, dog park, and playground. Its layout features wooded sites that appeal to seasonal owners looking for a summer base. The New Hampshire Campground Owners Association lists 138 campsites and identifies seasonal sites as open year-round.

The operator currently advertises monthly and seasonal stays, including winter monthly rates from $1,000 and 2026 summer monthly rates from $1,300-$1,500, with electricity billed separately. The key caveat is that there is no authoritative current statement specifically saying privately owned THOWs are accepted; therefore, it should be treated as "RV-friendly, tiny-home status to be confirmed" rather than a guaranteed THOW community.

Living in Henniker

Henniker is a small Merrimack Valley town in Merrimack County best known for being home to New England College, which gives the town an unusually lively energy for its size. The Contoocook River runs through the village center, crossed by one of the state's few remaining covered bridges still open to vehicle traffic. Pats Peak ski area sits just outside town, providing winter recreation alongside the river's paddling and fishing opportunities. The walkable village center includes local cafes, shops, and college-oriented businesses that shift with the academic calendar. Henniker's population includes a mix of long-time residents, college faculty and staff, and a rotating student population that drives seasonal demand for rental housing. Retail and grocery options remain limited, with many residents making regular trips to nearby Concord for larger shopping needs.
