How it was placed
29 campsites on Little Diamond Pond, twelve miles east of Colebrook, including sites for ATV camping with direct trail access to the Coos County OHRV/snowmobile network. Rate published on the park page: "$35 (no hook-ups) $40 (shelter)". Campground open full-time 5/15; the page lists a "fall primitive - open year-round" season for the lodges. When the park is unstaffed, payment goes in the iron ranger. SOURCE: https://www.nhstateparks.org/find-parks-trails/coleman-state-park (read 2026-08-16). NEW HAMPSHIRE STATE PARK CAMPING -- THE RULES THAT APPLY HERE. DESIGNATED SITES ONLY: NH Code of Administrative Rules Res 7302.02(a) (read 2026-08-16 at gc.nh.gov/rules/state_agencies/res7300.html) says "No person shall camp on DRED properties except in designated campsites." There is no dispersed camping on a New Hampshire state park or state forest. STAY LIMIT: Res 7302.03(d) -- "Camping permits shall have a maximum duration of 14 consecutive days at all campgrounds unless extended pursuant to paragraph (e)." TRAIL SHELTERS: Res 7302.02(g) -- overnight stays at Cohos Trail shelters in Nash Stream state forest, at Monadnock-Sunapee Greenway shelters in Max Israel state forest and Pillsbury state park, "and other remote locations where overnight stays are permitted shall have a maximum duration of 2 consecutive nights."

What we don’t know about Coleman State Park
A land record can put you within a few meters of a spot. It cannot tell you any of this — so check it yourself, and treat anything below as the open question it is.
- Road surface & last-mile access
- How many rigs actually fit
- Cell coverage by carrier
- Current fire restrictions
- Whether any water here is drinkable
- Shade & wind exposure
- Noise and who else shows up
- Whether a listed EV charger works today, or the road miles to it
