Sunfox Campground is conveniently located less than 1 mile from new exit 19 (old exit #83A) off I-395 North in Lisbon, Connecticut. Please note that CT has instituted new mileage-based exit numbers on I-395
A few directional notes:
1. There is no Exit 19 if Southbound on I-395
2. Sunfox was formerly “Deer Haven”
3. Strnad Rd is actually spelled that way–not “Strand”)
4. There is a low bridge (12′) on RT 138 in Lisbon, so we don’t send you that way…but your GPS might.
