    The Blackstone, Massachusetts area supports a variety of developed campgrounds within a 30-mile radius, with facilities ranging from basic to resort-style amenities. Notable options include Circle Campground Farm in nearby Bellingham and Normandy Farms Campground in Foxborough, both offering tent sites, RV hookups, and cabin accommodations. The region's mixed-use campgrounds primarily operate as established facilities rather than primitive camping areas, with most providing water and electric hookups, shower facilities, and designated fire rings at campsites.

    Most campgrounds in the Blackstone region operate seasonally from April through October, with a handful remaining open year-round. "Most campgrounds we have visited in the northeast rarely make improvements - they only want the money because it is a relatively short camping season," noted one visitor about the operating patterns. Road access to campgrounds is generally straightforward with paved approaches, though some visitors report narrow internal roads that can make maneuvering larger RVs challenging. The terrain is primarily wooded with rolling hills, providing natural shade at many campsites. Advance reservations are strongly recommended, especially for summer weekends and holiday periods when facilities reach capacity quickly.

    Campers consistently rate water-based amenities and proximity to regional attractions as significant advantages of camping in this area. The Blackstone region's campgrounds serve as convenient bases for exploring nearby cities like Boston, Providence, and historic sites throughout southern New England. According to one visitor staying at Circle Campground Farm, "We did Boston (caught the train), Salem, mystic seaport, Sturbridge village, plymouth rock, the Mayflower ship, and plymouth plantation spending no more than 1hr and 20 min at the most in the car." Sites vary considerably in size and privacy, with some visitors noting tight spacing at certain campgrounds. Most facilities maintain clean restrooms and showers, though amenities and maintenance standards differ between properties. Family-friendly activities like swimming pools, fishing ponds, and recreation fields are common features at the larger established campgrounds.

      Winter Island Park

      Basically a parking lot but with great views!

      I’m not going to lie this was a little tricky for big rigs to get to, but with lots of patience and skillful driving, it is doable. Salem is an old New England town so there are many narrow streets and some low clearances. Follow the directions on the parks website as they are designed for RVs– don’t use Google Maps unless you are a small camper. Even getting into the park is kind of challenging because of the way the entrance is laid out with the entrance booth and some low hanging trees. This campground is in a municipal park with a marina, beach, a short walking trail, and picnic areas. The campground has different sections and totally different feels to them. We arrived on a weekend and section we were in the section which is in the parking lot of a busy marina. The parking lot was half full which made for navigating our 45’ bus into our site pretty hard. 

      No sites have fire pits but you can have a fire if you bring your own above ground pit. Tent sites have picnic tables but nothing else. Some sites you can drive to and have a car onsite and others are non-vehicle access sites (11, 17, 18, 25, 26, 27& 38) in which you have to park in a parking lot. Some RV sites have great water views and others are in a back gravel lot. In my opinion, the best RV sites are 12-16(A-D) because they have a water view. Sites 16B-D are a little tricky for big-rigs to get into because of the tight space. Our site (#13) had a slight downhill slope. We pulled in forward so we could have a view of the harbor which meant the utilities (water electric only) were in the front of our site but we were able to reach without an extension cord. We loved watching the action in the harbor. There is a gazebo by the water which we enjoyed siting under and watching boats go in and out of the harbor while it rained. 

      There is a nice sandy beach onsite which attracts a lot of day use vistors. The grounds are interesting to walk around as the water views are nice and there is an old fort to explore. Nearby town of Salem Willows is(about½ mile away) is a cute old seaside town with restaurants and arcades. They have a Bluebike rental station which is an easy way to get downtown and explore the area if you don’t have a car.

      Berry's Grove Campground

      Nice Place To Relax

      We were visiting family around Nashua and needed somewhere to park the RV nearby. Berry’s Grove ended up being a really good fit. We could come and go easily and still have a nice place to relax at the end of the day.

      A Really Enjoyable Camping

      After a busy summer, we wanted somewhere we could just park the camper and slow down for a few days. Sterling Park worked out great for that. We spent one morning fishing, walked the trails later in the day and finished the evening around the fire. Nothing complicated, just a really enjoyable camping weekend.

      Never Got Old

      Waking up with the lake right outside the camper never got old. We would have breakfast, sit by the water for a while and then head out to explore the area.

      Around The Sites

      We came with another family and had a blast. The kids disappeared together for half the day while the adults hung around the sites. Between fishing, the pool and the other activities, everyone found something they liked. Would definatly come back.

      Our Dog Loved

      Our dog loved it here. We spent alot of time outside and there was enough space around the campground for him to get some exercise too.

      Just Sat Back

      Our kids are already asking when we can go back. They loved the pool, playground and all the space to run around. We mostly just sat back and enjoyed having a few days off.

      Whole Trip Better

      We brought the boat along and having access to the lake made the whole trip better. Nice to have everything right at the campground instead of having to load up and drive somewhere.

      Room To Relax

      Brought our camper up for a long weekend and had plenty of room to relax. The campground store was also super handy when we realized we forgot a few things.

    Guide to Blackstone

    What to do

    Hiking at West Thompson Lake: Just 25 minutes from Blackstone, West Thompson Lake Campground offers extensive trails. "There are plenty of hiking trails including a disc golf course," reports a camper, while another adds, "You can start hiking the trails around the lake right from campsite."

    Fishing opportunities: Most area lakes are stocked but have specific regulations. At George Washington State Campground, "There is a nice beach for children. The water was warm and clean. You can kayak or canoe. The dogs cannot go on the beach, but they can go in the boats."

    Water activities: Swimming pools are available at several campgrounds for summer recreation. One visitor at Normandy Farms Campground notes, "Four pools (include an indoor heated one)" and "Outdoor pool was heated and wonderful."

    What campers like

    Privacy levels vary: Site layout and spacing differ significantly between campgrounds. At Bowdish Lake Camping Area, campers appreciate that "Our site Blue 111 is spacious with lots of privacy," while another notes, "It appears that most of the sites are very private."

    Clean facilities: Several campgrounds maintain well-kept bathhouses and grounds. A visitor to George Washington State Campground mentioned, "Sites were well spaced and provided some privacy depending on your site choice. Grounds were well kept, bathrooms were very clean with hot showers (bring quarters, $1.50 for 6mins)."

    Convenient location: The region serves as an excellent base for regional exploration. A camper at Circle Campground Farm shared, "Everything you need 100%. Everything clean 100%. EASY Access to all attractions 100%."

    Seasonal fee structures: Many campgrounds have complex pricing models. At Bowdish Lake Camping Area, a seasonal camper reported numerous add-on charges: "$50.00 for a small dog, $100.00 for large dogs... $100.00 for cable... an additional .50 cents per kWh."

    Site selection matters: Research specific sites before booking. At Sutton Falls Camping Area, a visitor noted, "We were sadly very disappointed in this campsite... The camp site was hugely crowded with campers and RVs on top of each other with seemingly no privacy or space from one another."

    Reservation timing: Summer weekends fill quickly, especially holiday periods. A Normandy Farms camper advised, "When you enter Normandy Farms it is more like checking into a hotel than campground complete with a concierge and express check-in."

    Tips for camping with families

    Look for activity-rich campgrounds: Some locations offer extensive programming for children. "We stayed here for a few nights when they celebrated Halloween. It is super easy to get around. They had tons of festive activities," noted a visitor to Normandy Farms.

    Check bathroom facilities: Quality varies significantly between campgrounds. One camper at Canoe River Campground reported, "The pool bathrooms were gross, but the other facilities area near the tent sites was very nice and clean."

    Swimming options: Lakes and pools provide cooling options during hot summer days. A camper at George Washington State Campground mentioned, "There is a nice beach for children. The water was warm and clean," though another notes some campgrounds prohibit swimming in their lakes.

    Tips from RVers

    Site leveling challenges: Some campgrounds require significant effort to level rigs. At Sutton Falls Camping Area, a camper noted, "The site we stayed at (47) took a little leveling to get right but it was pretty nice having views of the water."

    Power reliability concerns: Electrical systems at some campgrounds may be problematic. At Holiday Acres Campground, a visitor reported electrical issues: "Their corroded 30 amp power melted the connections on both my cords and blew out my power awning."

    Gate access times: Check whether campgrounds restrict after-hours entry. At West Thompson Lake Campground, a camper noted, "Only complain is that they close the gate to enter at 9pm," which could affect late arrivals.
