Best Campgrounds near Millis, MA

690 Reviews

Campgrounds near Millis, Massachusetts provide a mix of developed and rustic camping experiences within 30 miles of Boston. Normandy Farms Campground in Foxborough stands out as a highly-rated resort-style facility with 400 sites offering tent, RV, cabin, and glamping accommodations. Circle Campground Farm in Bellingham represents another popular option with tent and RV sites. The eastern Massachusetts region features a blend of private campgrounds and state park facilities, with most established camping areas concentrated along major transportation corridors rather than within Millis itself.

Many campgrounds in the area operate seasonally, typically from April through October or November. Normandy Farms remains open from April 1st to November 30th, while Canoe River Campground in nearby Mansfield operates from mid-April to mid-October. Weather conditions strongly influence camping experiences, with late spring and early fall offering more moderate temperatures and fewer crowds than summer peak season. Most established campgrounds require reservations, particularly on weekends and during summer months. Cell service is generally reliable throughout the area. As one camper noted about Circle Campground, "Everything clean 100%, easy access to all attractions 100%, we did Boston (caught the train), Salem, mystic seaport, spending no more than 1hr and 20 min at the most in the car!"

Family-friendly amenities distinguish many campgrounds in the Millis region. Visitors frequently mention pools, playgrounds, and organized activities as highlights of their camping experience. Normandy Farms receives particular praise for its resort-style amenities, with one camper describing it as having "everything you could want. Outdoor pool was heated and wonderful. Pet park is great and catch and release pond." Several campgrounds offer full hookup sites with electric, water, and sewer connections for RVs, while tent camping options range from basic to premium sites. Most facilities maintain clean, well-equipped bathhouses and common areas. Public transportation access to Boston represents a significant advantage for visitors wanting to combine outdoor recreation with urban exploration, as multiple campgrounds provide convenient bases for day trips to historic and cultural attractions.

    Green Falls Campground

    Inexpensive and primitive

    We like Green Falls. Again, it is inexpensive and kinda primitive, but it sure also quiet and a real woods camping environment. Take a hike around the pond, fish and swim in season, and enjoy a laid back approach to your time here.

    Mount Misery Campground

    Great spot for no frills camping

    We loved Mt. Misery. We spent $17/night, and we know what to expect at that price point. We stayed during fall foliage season and even though CT has had a drought this year, there were still pretty colors to see. We hiked to the overlook of Mt. Misery and had a great time geocaching and enjoying the trails. We found the campsites to be decent, and a number of them did afford privacy and space, we had 4 people and 3 dogs on our site, and had plenty of room for our travel trailer and 2 tents. We will be back here for sure.

    Boston/Cape Cod KOA

    Koa Cape Cod

    Stayed in several KOAs over last few weeks. I would say needs attention. Appearance is not up to standard. Restrooms and grounds are not as clean by comparison.

    Normandy Farms Campground

    Loud and crowded!

    Know what you are getting... This is a family resort that charges$20/per night, per person, OVER the two people rate. It is loud, crowded, with golf carts and kids running around. It is a resort campground with pools, frisbee court and etc... This is not a quiet, restful place to stay to visit Boston and the surrounding area or to visit family in town. Entry is gated and controlled. Want to bring your college daughter back after dinner- forget it,$20 for her and$20 her friend, for 1-2 hour visit after 7:00 PM at night! When we return, we will stay at Spacious Skies CG or the state park. The cost and inconvenience is not worth it!

    Mount Misery Campground

    Lived up to its name

    Sites/facilities were as expected and I could have been very satisfied with our 1 night stay.  There are a lot of rules for camping here, which is confusing because there does not appear to be anyone to enforce them.  Late arrivals? Noise? I suspect that the couple who pulled into the site next to ours after 10PM with two cars and an infant are homeless and poached the site.  They were not there for the hiking or the camping experience and their infant child screamed or babbled through most of the night.  That plus the adults talking, car doors opening and closing, engine running, baby einstein videos playing...  In the morning they packed up and left.  I'm not an advocate of criminalizing homelessness, but if you are looking for a night in the woods listening to crickets and owls, this is not the place.

    Massasoit State Park Campground

    Campsite was great, staff was rough

    I loved our campsite. But the staff was pretty rude. I was there for a family reunion. I told the staff my mom and dad would be dropping me off the next day, so they added their name to the site as it is a mile walk in. They didn’t give us another car tag, just said if there names were in the site we were good. Next night, we get dropped off in the rain, with a 50 lb bag of dog food and they wouldn’t let me parents take me to my site. Eventually we convinced them of we left my dad and sister at the front gate with them in the pouring rain, my mom could drive us in. They never even checked our reservation to see if the names were in there. Bring a car if you are camping here in a motorhome
