Where you can easily WALK TO THE BEACH Relax in the peace & quiet of one of the most picturesque campgrounds on all of Cape Cod. Conveniently only a half-mile from beautiful Head of the Meadow Ocean Beach near the tip of Cape Cod.
We proudly strive to provide guests with a clean, quiet vacation option for camping near some of Cape Cod’s best beaches. We remain one of the few campgrounds on Cape Cod that are focused on creating a more “natural” camping experience, located within easy walk to Head of the Meadow Beach in scenic North Truro. Our campground is set among the famously twisted pitch pine trees, completely surrounded by the Cape Cod National Seashore Park. We are more oriented toward tent camping than most campgrounds these days, however, we also provide some campsites that can accommodate some smaller tent trailers, camper vans and even a few small trailers and RVs under 24 feet.
In the interest of creating a peaceful and relaxing camping environment we ask guests to be respectful of one another by following our evening Quiet Hours, and leaving their pets, generators, and motorcycles at home. We have only a few full-season campsites that have electricity and water, making us a more ideal fit for tenters, backpackers, and anyone looking for a more simple camping experience. We are less about “glamping” and more about enjoying the natural wonder of Cape Cod. Even though we do not provide electric and water hookups on our non-seasonal campsites, instead we provide access to free charging stations for your essential personal electronics items, such as cell phones, laptops and tablets. We also provide free Wi-Fi access for guests throughout much of Area 1, including in our large recreation hall, around our playground and outdoor picnic areas, and and in our adult quiet room where guests can comfortably use their laptops and phones to work on emails or remote work. Of course we also have centrally located water spigots for excellent drinking water throughout the campground and maintain clean restrooms, showers, and laundry facilities for our guests as well as a convenient camp store for food and camping necessities that is open much of the season.

I booked Deluxe Cabin 1 at the Boston KOA based on my past experiences in VA and NC. BOSTON was the WORST KOA I've stayed at. The cabin SMELLED of mildew and cigarettes(pic of ashes in the tub), and there was NO HOT WATER, which is against MA law. It was FILTHY, the pots needed to be replaced, and you have to request blankets. I informed the after hours staff about the water, blankets, and smell. The next morning, I went to the office at 9 am and talked to LORI. She was COMBATIVE and confrontational which is weird because she just started her day. As a person of color, I had to walk away because I was frightened. When I returned, BOB Brammer(He wanted to write his name down, so I got it right(his words)) lacked empathy and had a facial expression of annoyance. He was also CONFRONTATIONAL as I explained there was no hot water and the cabin smelled. I informed the national KOA feedback team(Kaitlyn& Tiana) and they said it's handled internally, whatever that means. If you read the reviews about bad customer service, believe it. You can see CUSTOMER SERVICE IS BADDDD! The KOA will probably respond to this review, but NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. I'll be reaching out to TOBY O'ROURKE and OSCAR TANG so they are aware the BOSTON KOA is tarnishing the KOA brand.

In Sept the campground was quiet and sparsely populated. Sites were big and fairly well spaced.
There’s 12 miles of hiking trails to explore. You can hear the highway from many of the sites and trails, but for the most part it’s just part of the background noise with the insects and other nature noises.
The park was easily accessible from the highway and easy to get through with a trailer.
Guide
Nice warm showers and our tent site was kept away from a lot, so it was calm and quiet. Nice staff and would definitely visit again.
Guide
Pinewood has all of the basics covered. Great place to spend 1-3 nights under the stars. Hot showers were awesome (.25 cents per 3 minutes) and the stone fire pits were a hit. Pond was pretty dirty and you’ll be in close proximity to a shooting range and municipal airport (be wary of noise levels).
ScoutRelaxing by the river w ur family is the best way to go
TravelerWe really enjoyed our stay. The privacy, facilities and near by local places to go and explore exceededour expectations.
Ranger
I like this campground and prefer site 14 on Flax Pond, the quieter of the 2 (Cliff Pond). This campground gets very busy in summer. Hikes around the ponds and swimming is lovely.
Your camp pass gets you into an underutilized beach across the road.
TravelerWe had an amazing stay at Shawme Crowell State Forest. The campsite we had was very large, private and shady. The playground was also just up the hill from us and was a HUGE hit with our 3 year old. Beaches, biking and hiking all close by along with grocery stores and restaurants if needed. Bathrooms were super updated and always clean!

Clean and Fun
TravelerVery clean variety accommodations thru out campground . Site 309 Pull thru with fire-pit , cement pad gas grill , chairs and table ,level site with grass for dog not all sandy Lots shade trees
Guide
Booked site in early July for Sept stay. Paid for a premium glamping site 2200 Sq ft with paver patio. Didn't pay site lock fee as I didn't care which site I got as long as was the same type of site and I think the sites are expensive enough. Arrived and was given a site in "motorhome row". Very small and no paver patio. Prayed the whole time neighbor didn't use his grill as he was that close. Left two days early we were very disappointed. Alot of seasonal sites and some were pretty dumpy looking
Guide
Lots of seasonal. Large area under construction. Nice location close to beaches and Ptown.
Scout
Cozy little loop at MSSF, with a lot of variation in quality across the lots, but generally good spacing and great views. Avoid J28, especially if it's going to get wet. The stuff further out tends to feel more remote, facilities clean and pretty good, camp staff great all around. This is a nice site, I'll be back.
Scout
Great campground with a fantastically short walk to the beach. We were assigned an awesome private tent spot near the back of the campsite with plenty of space for our tent, hammocks, and car. Surrounded by woods on 3 sides and really quiet. Staff were super nice and helpful, and the camp store stocked with anything you’d need. If we visit in summer again, we’ll plan ahead with more bug deterrents because the mosquitos were BAD even with bug spray.

It's back open and lovely.

I grew up going to ellis haven every summer now i’m continuing that same tradition with my children. Ellis haven is not only beautiful there’s always something to do. I highly recommend ellis haven.
Scout
We have been here several times and have always loved the atmosphere, camp employees, and fellow campers.
GuideSpots are beautiful. Private little lake with rentals & fishing, 2 pools, playground, store, etc. and it’s all conveniently located in cape cod. We very much enjoyed our stay here.
RangerA very nice place to stay! Lots of things to do on Cape Cod and this campground is centrally located. Friendly staff, clean facilities. There's a little store adjacent to the office just in case you forgot something. Playground for the kids. Was very quiet, of course I was there at the end of the season.
Beware of the nomes! ;)
TravelerThis state park is a family favorite located on the cleanest and most beautiful kettle ponds I’ve ever had the pleasure of swimming in! Perfect for exploring cape cod and all of it’s wonder
TravelerWe loved staying here during our August girls weekend trip! Short walk to a beautiful ocean beach in the National seashore. Bummer about no fires but understandable given the protected area
GuideThis is a nice campground with multiple site type options. Staff and Management are available to help. This is a busy campground due to its location . Easy access to Boston, Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, Plymouth, Newport, and many more attractions. I recommend having reservations if you want to stay at this campground, between Memorial Day and Labor Day. We were being told that they are making several changes to the campground during the 2022/2023 winter down time season. We will have to wait and see what the changes will bring.
ScoutSite was level, staff was awesome. They do have a dog park and plenty of things to do. Didn't like that you have to pay for hot water though.
GuideEach site is nestled in between pines. Although this is definitely dry camping-water spigots are conveniently placed between sites. Bug spray and fans are a definite when sitting outside due to mosquitoes. If there’s not a full moon be sure to have a reliable flashlight to navigate pathways. The restrooms do have hot showers although unkept and unclean-I was informed they are being upgraded. The woman that are employed here were extremely accommodating, polite and helpful-(hopefully you can read between the lines in this statement). The campground abuts Heritage Museum and Gardens which is 100 acres of well maintained flowering gardens. Several unique buildings exist on the rolling paved walkways, each with a theme of antique cars, toys etc-there is an admission fee. There is a climbing and propelling area in the back of the property, however neighboring residents discouraged it from staying open-The Pilot House Restaurant as well as Fisherman’s View offer a variety of delicious appetizers, entrees, and martinis. And on a last note -check out Treehouse Brewery-great beer and another beautiful view-log onto their website to preorder tickets.
ScoutWell organized, clean campground with a ton of activities to do. Site with patio was great. Had a gas grill, table and chairs, a glider and fire pit.
Scout
I have been here at least twenty times so needless to say I love it here. It is now owned and run by the Trustees of Reservations, a not for profit organization. Staff is friendly-facilities are clean…but the best part of it is its location in wooded dunes near the quaint, historic and inclusive town of Provincetown, Ma. A ten minute walk or the beach 15 minutes by bicycle .
ScoutNice and quiet, here for a 3 night stay. 4 star because there are signs posted No dogs allowed on the road to the beach or other areas in the campground, limits walking. There is a dog park, though.
