3 campgrounds with availability next weekend
Several RV parks operate within 30 miles of Clarksburg, Massachusetts, offering varied options for motorhome travelers. Mt. Greylock Campsite Park in Lanesborough provides dedicated RV sites with a 4.5-star rating, while Historic Valley Campground in North Adams offers electric hookups with 30-amp service and operates from May 15 to October 15. Fernwood Forest Campground features both 30 and 50-amp electric service, water hookups, and a dump station, though it's noted as not being big-rig friendly. Sperry Road Campground at Mount Greylock State Reservation accommodates RVs year-round with electric, water, and sewer connections. "The sites were spacious but required some maneuvering to avoid scraping trees with our RV," noted one visitor about camping in the region, highlighting the importance of careful navigation in these wooded settings.
Navigation into mountain parks requires attention to road conditions and elevation changes. Many RV sites in the Berkshires region have gravel pads rather than concrete, with some campers reporting the need for leveling blocks. Cell service varies significantly throughout the area, with AT&T and Verizon typically providing 1-3 bars at most campgrounds. Dump stations are available at most parks, though not all sites offer full hookups. Pet policies are generally accommodating, but specific restrictions may apply. Fall foliage season fills campgrounds quickly, making advance reservations essential from September through mid-October. Winter camping options are limited, with most RV parks closing between mid-October and May, though Mount Greylock State Reservation remains open year-round with water services shut off during winter months.
"Jamaica is a nice little state park nestled in the woods and by a nice River. Very family friendly and close to Manchester and Stratton and Bromley Mountains."
"The campsites were beautiful with the river behind us. Not to many people there so we're got the best spot. The bathrooms are sanitary and are not port-a-potties."
from $20 - $42 / night
"The roads and campsites are gravel and a little tight to get around because of all the trees but we were able to manage in our 45’ motorhome."

"RV site was very large and mostly level. Good location. Close to Hudson River and Albany."

"Our site was back-in and had plenty of space. There's a lot of green space in this campground and it's right on the river. We were next to a little fenced in area for dogs that our dog loved."
"Well maintained, located on the Mohawk River. Shady, grassy areas. Boat launch and pier. Friendly people. A perfect campground."

"Beautiful sites with lots of trees, some on a lake for RV or Tent camping. Very helpful and friendly staff. Clean restrooms and showers."
"Very helpful friendly staff . Sites are nice and most have electric, water and some with sewer hookups. One issue is the hookups are spread out on your sites."
TravelerCamp is pretty close together but most spots have a thick tree line between them which is nice. You still get a bit of road noise off the bridge and surrounding areas but it’s not to bad and the views at the boat launch on the Hudson are gorgeous
ScoutIt was dark. I arrived after 7p. There were 3 rv camps already going on. All 3 had camp fires. Many fire rings for many groups. No hassles at all. It's off the beaten path but worth it. The first 4 camp sites were open. Made a fire. Ate some food. I got a good night sleep. Nothing ate me or attacked me so that's 5 star in my book.
TravelerA nice wooded campground that was quiet despite being almost full on our Friday night stay.
The site we stayed at (64) had some pretty large roots to drive over and may have been an issue for a low clearance vehicle (we have a Subaru Outback).
The shower / house bathroom combo units weee very clean with hot water and baby changing station.
GuideI'm sure families would like it here in the summer, but to charge $90 when everything is closed up is ridiculous. Wi-Fi and showers are an additional cost. It does have an ADA shower which is a plus. Lots of permanent RVers and some sites are tight.
TravelerLove this place. We were the only ones there during a weekday visit in October. It’s incredibly peaceful with wooded sites and the lake is just gorgeous with the fall foliage. Bonus that they deliver firewood to the campsite. My only wish and I wouldn’t knock a star off because we were literally the only ones there is I wish they didn’t lock the showers. I would have loved to have a shower but the office was closed and I wasn’t able to find anyone to unlock a shower. Just be prepared and bring your dude wipes 🤣 Other than that amazing place.
GuideThe park looks fantastic! Well maintained camp sites and beautiful river sceneries from the boat launch area!
Bathhouse is one of the best I have seen!
Check in was smooth. Everyone was courteous!
TravelerLots of beautiful spots to pick from but be careful some are a bit muddy. We brought our school bus down the dirt road just fine and backed right in. They also have fireplaces which was nice!
LegendMostly peaceful campground with nice spots, most of which offer some privacy. If you are bothered by trains, note that you will hear them in the background quite frequently from the railroad bridge that passes over the Hudson River. It's not loud by any means, but you can hear them.
The state park staff and the camp hosts were all very friendly, and it has some of the cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen in a state park.
Site 20 is a pull through site and it's huge, and while it is next to the shower building, it's far enough away that it really isn't a problem. Also, the field between you and the shower building is a fantastic spot to set up a Starlink dish.
GuideWonderful owners. A variety of sites to choose from in a relaxing setting. No waste hookups here, but they have a dump station. $51 per night with cash.
Camping options near Clarksburg, Massachusetts include both rustic sites and modern facilities spread throughout the Berkshire Mountains region. The area sits at elevations ranging from 1,000 to 3,489 feet, with Mount Greylock—the highest point in Massachusetts—dominating the landscape. Summer temperatures typically range from 50-80°F, with cooler nights even during peak season due to the mountain elevation.
Waterfall hiking trails: Access Hamilton Falls from Jamaica State Park Campground, a moderate 3-mile round trip hike along a gravel path. "There are plenty of trails in the area and you can go to the waterfall/rock slides and take a dip in the pools. The area is beautiful and good food across the street!" shares Jackie G. about Jamaica State Park Campground.
Swimming quarries: Visit the natural swimming areas near Dorset RV Park during summer months. "Great location near a fantastic quarry, country store, and Manchester shopping. The camp grounds were family friendly and quiet. They even had rabbits and chickens for the kids to enjoy," notes Rachelle S. about her stay at Dorset RV Park.
Summit views: Hike to Mount Greylock's summit for panoramic views across five states on clear days. "We hiked the west river trail (which leads right out of the campground) to Hamilton falls which is a gravel closed road that follows the west river upstream 2 miles to Hamilton falls trail which then leads up hill for another mile to the falls," explains Chris D. about the trails accessible from the campsites.
Private wooded sites: Many campgrounds offer secluded camping spots with natural screening. "The sites were large and, while not completely level, was workable. There were a scattering of amenities like a rec room with games, shuffleboard, playground, volleyball, horseshoes, laundry, and showers," reports Nancy W. about her experience at Dorset RV Park.
Clean facilities: Consistently maintained restrooms and showers rank high in camper satisfaction. "The bathrooms were the cleanest campground bathrooms I've ever seen! The campsites are pretty big and somewhat private which is nice," notes Jenny A. about Woodford State Park Campground.
Community activities: Many campgrounds organize social events during peak season. "There were activities planned for the weekends that we took advantage of too. The band on Saturday night was fun and we brought our chairs and a cooler up there after dinner," shares a visitor about the entertainment options at Mt. Greylock Campsite Park.
Limited cell service: Many campgrounds have minimal connectivity regardless of carrier. "Find something that you dont like about this park... go ahead, ill wait. Small town general store, no cell service and a gorgeous back drop is a perfect spot to just unwind from the real world," comments Brittany B. about Jamaica State Park Campground.
Bear safety precautions: Black bears inhabit the region, requiring proper food storage. "Sites are large and generally secluded, each offering a bear box set apart from the campsite itself as black bears live in the park," explains a visitor to Sperry Road Campground at Mount Greylock State Reservation.
Challenging RV navigation: Some access roads have tight turns and low clearances. "Larger rigs might want to avoid loop 6-14, especially for sites 8-12. Tree placement and a pretty sharp 110+ degree turn makes it challenging to maneuver," warns Katie E. about certain sections at campgrounds in the region.
Playground access: Choose campgrounds with dedicated play areas for children. "Nice little weekend getaway. Clean bathrooms, roomy tent sites, nice staff. Fun playground and nature area for kids. Very family friendly place with beautiful hikes to Hamilton falls," recommends Fransheska A. about Jamaica State Park Campground.
Farm animal interactions: Some campgrounds feature mini farms that entertain younger guests. "They even had rabbits and chickens for the kids to enjoy. Spotless grounds and helpful staff. We loved the vibe," shares a reviewer about the family-friendly atmosphere at Dorset RV Park.
Safety around water features: Exercise caution at natural water features. "People have lost their lives at these falls so be extra cautious with children around the falls," warns Chris D. about Hamilton Falls, accessible from Woodford State Park Campground.
Hookup placement challenges: Be prepared with extra hoses and cords. "One issue is the hookups are spread out on your sites. So you may need extra hose or longer cord to complete your hookups," advises Stephen R. about Historic Valley Campground in North Adams.
Site leveling requirements: Many RV sites in the Berkshires require leveling equipment. "Our site was level but some definitely were not. We got twenty or so television channels with the cable hookup. The hookups were all well-placed and we didn't have any issues with the electric," reports a visitor to one of the RV parks near Clarksburg, Massachusetts.
Road navigation warnings: Pay attention to local directions rather than GPS. "They tell you clearly to avoid the GPS directions, but I can't help but think the giant hill they wanted us to avoid would've been better than the dead end and destroyed awning as a result of theirs... Stay focused and pay super close attention when driving through the streets out here," cautions Brittany V. about approaching campgrounds in the area.
