Walker Island Family Camping is a campground or RV park located in Chester.
Founded in 1969 and encompassing 85 acres, Walker Island is unique among campgrounds. With two islands formed by Walker Brook, and an old granite railroad, all connected by two covered bridges in the foothills of the Berkshires, Walker Island creates a camping experience like no other. On the main island are full hookup sites, our building with store, office, laundry, rec. hall and propane pump station as well as our pool. On the smaller island is the playground with swings, small mini golf, shuffle board, bocci and horseshoe pits. Remnants of the old railroad can still be seen as you make your way to our secluded tent sites on the hill or beside the brook. The Berkshires are America's cultural resort. Many of the Hilltowns are as much as 75% summer homes. People come from all over the world to visit Tanglewood, Jacob's Pillow, Berkshire Playhouse, Shakespeare & Co., Norman Rockwell Museum as well as our own Miniature Theater of Chester.
