Vermont State Parks Pet Policy: Pets are allowed in Vermont State Parks, but must be kept on a leash no longer than 10 feet or safely confined at all times. Pets are permitted in all campgrounds and trails unless otherwise designated. Pets are not permitted on beaches or in picnic areas, except picnic areas at Allis, Camp Plymouth, Elmore, Knight Point, Lake Shaftsbury, Mt. Philo, Osmore Pond and Owl’s Head. Also, pets are allowed on the far side of the beaches (away from the swimming areas) at Branbury, Lake Shaftsbury and Silver Lake State Parks. At Camp Plymouth, pets are allowed to swim only at the cartop boat launch.
