Mt. Greylock Campsite Park in Lanesborough offers RV sites with electric hookups, fifty-amp service, and water connections from May through October. Situated near Mount Greylock State Reservation, the park provides gravel pads on hillside terrain with limited level sites. "We were looking for a quiet place for a week away during the summer of Covid, 2020. More rustic than an average rv park, some hookups, no sewer hookup but a dump station on the way out," notes one camper about the layout. Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground in nearby New York provides RV sites with 30/50-amp electrical service, sewer hookups, and water connections across its drive-in access areas. Dorset RV Park in Vermont accommodates big rigs with full hookup rv sites including water, electric, and sewer connections on their seasonal grounds open May through October.
Several campgrounds in the region operate with limited seasonal availability, typically closing after mid-October and reopening in May. Dump stations are available at Mt. Greylock Campsite Park, Lake Taghkanic, and Jamaica State Park, though not all parks offer on-site sewer connections. One review mentioned that "it would be nice if any of the door latches on the women's toilets worked" at a nearby campground, highlighting maintenance variability. Cell service fluctuates throughout the mountainous terrain, with some reviews noting limited connectivity in more remote locations. Pet policies vary between parks, with most allowing pets with proper documentation. The hilly terrain of the Berkshire Mountains creates navigation challenges for larger RVs on some approach roads, particularly during inclement weather conditions.

GuideGreat stop! New owners have created an awesome family friendly park with swimming/fishing pond, clean restrooms and beautiful grounds. Big rigs fit.
LegendWe thought this park was o.k.– nothing special but nothing bad but we really wanted to see the area since we were told the town of Dorset was so pretty. When we checked in, there was a sign that personnel were working in the park and there was a phone number for us to call. They responded right away and met us at the office and showed us where our site was.
The campground was clean and tidy with nice tall trees. 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. There were a scattering of amenities like a rec room with games, shuffleboard, playground, volleyball, horseshoes, laundry, and showers. There are community activities like bonfires, bingo, pot luck dinners, and complementary donuts& coffee every Sunday morning.
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 and the wifi at our site worked well. We had a picnic table and fire pit. The sites next to us were not occupied which was nice because otherwise it would have felt a little tight. We did notice a bit of road noise when sitting outside. There are some really nice tent sites set away from the RV sites that sit under large trees and have nice space. The only drawback is they are farther away from the bathrooms.
Loved the area, the Green Mountains are beautiful so there is plenty of sightseeing to do. Dorset is a cute tiny town that is beautiful in the fall. The nearby town of Manchester is home to Orvis and there is an interesting fly fishing museum next door. Overall, the park was fine for us and we would stay again if we were in the area. We paid ($47/night) for our full hookup, 50-amp site.
ScoutNice campsites, nice facilities, nice forest!
Not sure I’d try a really big rig here, but our little 16’ trailer fit in great. I don’t see any pull through sites, but I didn’t seem them all.
GuideThis place was recommended by a friend It is exactly what she said Clean, friendly stuff , large RV welcome, but it seems tight for the big ones We had a site with Electric and Water hook up There are sewer hook up available also Over all a great place Pet friendly, ( we had two dogs)
LegendI stayed here in mid-July, a week after the holiday weekend. Although the majority of the sites are season, there are about 25 sites available for short-term campers, including a number that are within site of the water(although most of the waterfront in the area is occupied by boat slips, there is a walkway to the beach). Four sites are near the rec hall. Near the entrance are 10 sites(half of them pull-through) that are a combination of grass and shade, near the ballfield. My site was in this area. The sites were spacious and level. Sites T 1-10 tended to have sloped access and sometimes had trees to maneuver around, but I saw large trailers in some of these sites; most had tents. All sites offer water/electric. A dump station is available near the entrance. I had 3 bars of Verizon service.
As a seasonal campground, there are a lot of weekends scheduled throughout the weekend. While I was there, there were organized cribbage& horseshoe tournaments, cornhole, and bingo as well as a potato roast. Most of the seasonal campers have golf carts, so you’ll see them buzzing around the campground and providing seats for tournament viewers. The playground with swings, slides, and a see saw saw a lot of kids action throughout the weekend, as did the tennis court and basketball court. The ballfield was the only area I didn’t see in use.
The beach is sandy with a roped off swim area and raft; a boat ramp gives you a spot to launch. Fishing from the boat ramp area yielded bass and bluegill. Millfoil is a problem in the lake, particularly the southern end, and boats needs to be cleaned to prevent spread.
I wasn’t given a map when I checked in, so I looked it up online to locate the bathroom. Initially I only saw the one nearer the beach, which was a bit of a hike from my campsite. It was also very tight with limited space between the sink vanity and the toilet stalls. There was 1 shower in this area. Closer inspection of the map revealed a second, larger bathroom, that had more space, toilets, and showers. That said, they need to do a better job lifting the mats and cleaning the shower drains so they’ll drain. I was grateful for shower shoes! To turn on the shower, you have to pull on a rope or bar hanging from just above the showerhead. As long as you are pulling the rope, the water is on. I’m not sure a child could reach it. It’s annoying, but it certainly enforces a ship-shower approach to water conservation. If you have a self-contained unit, I'd rate the campground a 4.
You’ll need to call to make a reservation and plan to pay by cash or check; no credit cards allowed. My site was assigned upon arrival; I was able to call just a few days earlier to obtain a site, but the weather was bad leading into the weekend, so that may have affected it.
Seasonal site setups vary from spotless and landscaped to ones that have seen a better day, but as a short-term camper, you really only need to pass by them en route to the rest rooms or the beach.
There are a couple of restaurants nearby if you want take-out: Rustic Table and A1 Pizza are just around the corner. Pisgah State Park is nearby with miles of hiking trails and ponds.
TravelerPros- warm clean bathrooms Warm cinnamon buns in the am Great playground, pool and pirate ship. We were there with the Scouts and took up a huge grassy area with tents. Looks like a lot of RV’s for the long term, some pop ups, we were the only tents. Went river rafting so super convenient.
GuideI’ve yet to have a bad experience at a state park. They are always better maintained and are typically more beautiful and interactive than national park campgrounds and even most RV parks.
The sites are amongst the most spacious I’ve ever seen. RV sites offer 30/50 amp electricity. There are several hiking trails, a bike trail, a really awesome playground, boat dock, and lots of picnicking.
The bathrooms are clean. The showers are large, but they do operate on a push system where you can’t adjust the pressure, temp, or how long the water comes out, so just be aware of that. Lots of water fill ups in the campground. Dump station on the way out. Two different book exchanges. Mostly filled with Danielle Steele, which is not my preference, but maybe someone will spice it up in the future.
ATT and Verizon fluctuate between 1-3 bars. It was enough for me to work - downloading files, sending emails, and conducting non-video zoom calls. At night we were able to stream with just a little buffering needed throughout.
Lots of bunnies, weasels, chipmunks, birds, and butterflies. Plenty of space to walk the dog. Be sure to bring your dogs rabies records!! They don’t let you in with just the tag, it has to be the paper records. We’re full time so not a problem as it’s always with me, but they are very strict on rabies requirements
Definitely recommend.
The Berkshire Mountains around New Ashford, Massachusetts, feature elevations ranging from 950 to 3,491 feet at Mount Greylock's summit. Camping in this region often means dealing with hillside terrain and seasonal weather patterns that can bring rapid temperature changes even in summer. Most RV campgrounds near New Ashford operate from May through October, with limited to no availability during winter months.
Waterfall hikes nearby: Jamaica State Park offers access to Hamilton Falls via a relatively easy 2-mile trail that follows the West River. "The hike up to Hamilton falls... 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. People have lost their lives at these falls so be extra cautious with children," notes Chris D.
Swimming options: Lake Taghkanic State Park offers a clean swimming beach with lifeguards during summer. "The lake is beautiful and clean. Expect to pay $15 fee (I think) to use your paddleboards / kyacks etc. Worth every penny," reports Mellisa T.
Fishing opportunities: Several ponds and rivers throughout the region offer fishing. Rudd Pond at Taconic State Park is particularly noted for largemouth bass. "Being able to fish and catching 2 decent-sized largemouth bass made everything all ok!! There is plenty of fishing access from shore and you can rent a boat for the whole day to fish on the water," according to Rosie R.
Lean-to options: Jamaica State Park features lean-to sites along the river that provide shelter options beyond traditional tent camping. "We managed to get a prime leanto site right on the river. We were only there for an overnight but we will be back. In the Spring the water is released behind Ball Dam, creating a white water adventure," shares M.A.D. P.
Platform tent sites: Several campgrounds in the region offer raised wooden platforms for tents, particularly helpful during wet weather. "The platforms kept us off the ground and were helpful in setting up appropriate tarp protection! The lake is gorgeous and there are plenty of nearby hikes for exploring," explains Rosie R.
Privacy between sites: Fernwood Forest Campground offers more secluded camping with space between sites. "Large sites with trees give lots of privacy. Very clean sites and facilities are cleaned to meet COVID requirements. Very quiet. Good local access to numerous hiking trails in the area," according to Rebecca B.
Bear activity concerns: Mount Greylock State Reservation requires proper food storage due to resident black bears. "Sites are large and generally secluded, each offering a bear box set apart from the campsite itself as black bears live in the park. The campsite numbers are on the bear boxes," explains Jean C.
Shower availability varies: Not all campgrounds offer shower facilities, and some have limited hours or coin operation. Check each location's specifics before booking.
Limited cell service: Many campgrounds in the region have poor or no cell service due to mountainous terrain. "Small town general store, no cell service and a gorgeous back drop is a perfect spot to just unwind from the real world," notes one camper about Jamaica State Park.
Kid-friendly amenities: Prospect Mountain Campground offers numerous family activities. "They have activities every weekend such as dances, bingo, hayrides. They also have a great pool, playground and pond for fishing. They also have a nice little store and snack bar. There is also a mini golf course and a mining area where kids can 'mine' 'gems'. Kids had a blast!" says Sandra S.
Bathroom accessibility: Consider site location relative to bathroom facilities, especially with small children. Some campgrounds have limited facilities spread across large areas.
Swimming safety: Many swimming areas lack lifeguards or have limited hours. Lake Taghkanic is noted for its clean beach but can get crowded during peak summer weekends.
Site leveling challenges: Many RV sites in the Berkshires require leveling blocks due to hillside terrain. Mt. Greylock Campsite Park features predominantly sloped sites. "The sites were large and, while not completely level, was workable," notes Nancy W. about nearby Dorset RV Park.
Maneuvering difficulties: Trees and tight turns can make navigation challenging for larger rigs. "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 a camper about another area campground.
Seasonal considerations: Most RV parks in the region close by mid-October and don't reopen until May. Book well in advance for fall foliage season as this is peak demand time for New Ashford area campgrounds.
