Marthas Vineyard Family Campground
Just like we remembered
Great family campground. The place is very clean. NIce to have both indoor and outdoor showers. The store has plenty of useful items. Staff is friendly and helpful. They have lots of activities and concerts for families. The drive around in a golf cart in the evenings checking on campers and making sure everyone is abiding by the quiet hours. We stayed in a one room cabin with confortable beds.
Robert F.ScoutMaurices Campground
Maurice's on Cape Cod
Location on the lower Cape is excellent, approximately 1/2 way between Chatham and Provincetown (~ 30-40 min) good number of restaurants within 20 minutes, close to Nauset beach and Cape Cod National Seashore visitor center in Eastham. Very quiet in evenings and everyone we encountered (campers and staff) were friendly, we had no safety concerns. We stayed in a site with water, sewer and 30 amp electric, there is free WiFi. Sites are fairly close together and are mostly shaded. A large number of sites are seasonal and there are trailers that are well past their prime and appear not to have been moved (or used this season?) for some time with clutter and deck type set-ups. This is the biggest detractor of the campground imho. Bathroom and showers (free) were clean, shower stalls were on the small side but were fine for my wife and I. Campground has direct access to the Cape Cod Rail Trail which is well maintained for bike riding and walking/running. I understand from speaking with another camper that some changes may be coming to the campground which may hopefully lead to some updates that would elevate this campground from 3 to 4 or 5 stars. I would however stay here again were no changes to be made (location is great).

Nickerson State Park Campground
Love this Park
This is a great asset to the Cape. We live here and it's great to have such a wonderful park right here. No crossing the bridge is a very high point. This park has it all:
Biking, Hiking, small store, swimming, fishing, kayaking or canoeing and close to town if you have other needs or just want to go eat elsewhere. It also has nice bathrooms and showers.

Love this place
This campground was wonderful. While the campsites aren’t extremely secluded, there’s still plenty of privacy. The park itself is beautiful, and it’s a fantastic place for both fishing and kayaking. I highly recommend visiting Cape Cod and staying here if you’re looking for a relaxing camping experience.

LegendPinewood Lodge Campground
Nice woodsy campsite with lots of amenities
We visited in early June and really appreciated the shade at our site as the temps rose into the mid-80’s. There are lots of tall pine trees but are trimmed back and not a problem getting or big-rig through the park or in our site. We loved site 47 which was long and level with nice grass around it. The next site (46) was pretty close, but luckily nobody was in it while we visited. Our patio area was fairly large with no other sites next to it, just a road. We chose a 50A/water pull thru site and the electric was good at 124 volts on each leg. Honey wagon service is quite expensive at $35/pump out, or you can use the dump station for free. We used the campground cable tv and got about 60 stations, included the major stations (local news was out of Boston). This was a good thing since the trees blocked our Dish receiver from getting any channels. The wifi was 2.4G and just o.k. You could surf the internet but definitely not strong enough to stream. I went to the lodge and got great wifi speed to download movies quickly.
The campground is gated and charges$15/day for visitors. There are lots of amenities. There is a good access to a small lake (with a canoe/kayak launch and rentals), fishing pier (for catch and release, no license required), ice cream stand, food truck, playground, a large dog park (with two runs), laundry, playground, horseshoes, etc. The campground is conveniently to the downtown Plymouth attractions (10 minutes) and a grocery store (2 miles).
The biggest downside was the dust since most of the roads are gravel. It was very dry during our visit and the dust was crazy. Another negative was the $5/day pet fee. There are restrictions as to where you can walk your pets in the campground and they are not allowed on the beach. There is a good size dog park with two runs. If you dog is afraid of gunshots, do not come here as there is a gun range nearby that is pretty loud.
Guide to Dennis Port
Cape Cod cabins near Dennis Port accommodate various camping styles within 20 miles of this central location. Situated at sea level with moderate summer temperatures averaging 75-80°F, the area features a mix of coastal and wooded terrain. Rental cabins typically operate seasonally from April through October, with bookings required 2-3 months in advance during peak summer periods.
What to do
Biking adventures: Access the Cape Cod Rail Trail directly from Sweetwater Forest in Brewster. "The bike trails are a short ride away as well," reports one camper, making it convenient to explore the Cape on two wheels without driving to trailheads.
Fishing opportunities: Try shoreline fishing at the Cape Cod Canal near Bourne Scenic Park. "If you like fishing this is your place," notes a visitor. The canal offers striper fishing during summer months, with easy access from camping areas.
Beach exploration: Cabin accommodations at Campers Haven RV Resort provide private beach access. "Private beach, some activities best place ever!" shares a repeat visitor. The resort's location puts you steps from Nantucket Sound without needing to search for beach parking.
What campers like
Pond swimming: Many cabin locations feature freshwater swimming options. At Nickerson State Park Campground, "The clean, freshwater swimming at the kettle ponds (which are usually uncrowded and within less than a minute's walk from our campsite) is incredible," reports one visitor who found it preferable to ocean beaches.
Wooded privacy: Cabins at Sweetwater Forest offer seclusion compared to beachfront options. A camper notes, "We were on site B17 and it was perfect. Complete 360 privacy, well wooded, and just what was needed. Listen to the sounds of frogs at night was kinda awesome."
Camp amenities: For those seeking cabin comfort with activities, Peters Pond RV Resort provides multiple recreation options. "Great dog park, pool, large pond," reports a visitor. The site also features "the little pool slide" which kids particularly enjoy.
What you should know
Reservation timing: Book cabin accommodations early, especially for summer stays. At Bay View Campground, "over 450 sites" are available, but they fill quickly. Seasonal cabins often book 6-12 months ahead.
Noise considerations: Some locations offer more peace than others. One camper reported about Cape Cod Campresort & Cabins: "I've been camping for over twenty years and this campground is by far the noisiest campground I have ever been to."
Transportation options: When staying in cabins near Dennis Port, the Cape Cod Rail Trail provides car-free travel options. "The Cape Cod Rail Trail runs through the park, and is a great way to get around," notes a Nickerson visitor, allowing access to nearby towns without driving.
Tips for camping with families
Kid-friendly activities: Cape Cod Campresort & Cabins offers extensive recreation for children. "Spots are beautiful. Private little lake with rentals & fishing, 2 pools, playground, store, etc. and it's all conveniently located in cape cod," shares one family.
Playground access: Bourne Scenic Park provides multiple play areas for different ages. A visitor notes they have "Lots of playgrounds for different ages" plus a "Bounce pad (in-ground)" that keeps children entertained when not at the beach.
Safety concerns: Pay attention to swimming restrictions at ponds. One Sweetwater Forest camper mentioned the pond "is not swimmable due to the snappers," so always check safety guidelines for water activities with children.
Tips from RVers
Site selection: At Shawme Crowell State Forest Campground, carefully review site specifications. "Most of the sites are on the larger size. The showers are strategically placed in the middle so could be a longer walk depending on what site you are at," advises one RVer.
Utility considerations: Not all cabin locations offer full hookups. At Nickerson State Park, sites have "no hook ups" despite being "large, private, quiet sites," making it better for those with self-contained units or who plan to use shared facilities.
Road access: Some campgrounds have challenging entrance points. Bay View Campground has good-sized sites but "is located on a busy highway and if you are approaching from the south, the turn into the campground is hair-raising!"
