Best RV Parks & Resorts near Chester, MA

Several RV parks surround Chester, Massachusetts with varying hookup configurations and seasonal availability. Prospect Mountain Campground and RV Park in Granville offers big-rig friendly sites with 50-amp electric, water, and sewer hookups from May through Columbus Day. Sites include picnic tables and are equipped with trash service. Camp Coldbrook Golf & RV Resorts in Barre features 30-amp hookups and operates mid-April through mid-October with water, electric, and sewer connections. "Our site was clean, easy to get in/out with 21' travel trailer," noted one visitor about a nearby campground. Thousand Trails Sturbridge provides full-hookup sites from April to late October with 50-amp service, although reviews indicate the sites aren't configured for larger motorhomes.

Many campgrounds in western Massachusetts have sloped terrain requiring leveling blocks. According to a review from The Dyrt, "I used a record 9 blocks to get 4 levels high on the downhill wheel" at one nearby state park. Navigating to several parks requires caution with narrow access roads and low-hanging branches that can challenge wider motorhomes. Cell service varies significantly across the region, with stronger coverage near interstate corridors and weaker signals in mountain valleys. Most RV campgrounds around Chester permit pets but implement varying restrictions. Dump stations are available at the larger commercial parks, while state forest campgrounds typically offer more primitive setups. Few parks remain open through winter months, with most closing between mid-October and early November.

    Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park in Sturbridge - [CLOSED}

    Pine lake , Sturbridge Ma.

    I’m told that this used to be Jellystone. 

    It’s now called Pine Lake Rv and cottages.

    Not knowing what the previous campground was like I can’t compare. But the new owners surely did a total revamp. There is approximately 30 cottages and many pull through and back in sites for any size RV.

    The bathroom/showers were all new and very nice and clean. It seems to be very family friendly. There’s an 8 acre lake with kayaks and fishing, a basketball court,   a game pavilion and a well stocked store. The RV sites are   spacious and pretty close to near perfect level.

    The problems I came across was there were very few places to dispose of camp trash, I had to actually walk around looking for one. The camp store doesn’t open until 9:00AM and closes at 4:00PM

     If you can, try and NOT stay on the back upper level ( the 700 ) spots. It’s around 100 feet from a very busy road and loud !

    A nice family friendly campground

    This is a nice family friendly campground that makes for easy trips. There are a variety of sites available, from open field sites to more wooded and private areas. The campground also has a lake for swimming,trails for hiking, and some nice quiet areas for fishing. Well maintained bathrooms, with available showers, are also spread throughout the grounds. Not pet friendly unfortunately.

    Forest Lake Campgrounds

    Weekend stay, lots of seasonal camping

    Site was clean, easy to get in/out with 21' travel trailer. Swimming at the beach wasn't inviting. Lots of seasonal campers with years of lawn ornaments. There was a sense of the campground being clicky place. Pet friendly. Mixed emotions....
