The staff there are friendly and helpful. It's definitely a plus."

TravelerHad a great Memorial Day weekend here despite the chilly weather. Amenities include campers only beach, great trails (including accessible), nature center, staff were present and circulated often.
ScoutWe had an incredible stay at Douglas Forest RV Resort! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how peaceful and well-maintained everything was. The RV sites are spacious and easy to navigate, with full hookups and strong Wi-Fi— a big plus for us since we work remotely on the road. What really sets this place apart is the location. You’re literally steps away from Douglas State Forest, which made morning hikes and evening strolls absolutely magical. It’s pet-friendly too, and our dog loved the wooded trails and open areas. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and the camp store had everything we needed. Even though the recreation area is still being built, the amenities already in place more than made up for it. We’re already planning our next trip for summer when the pool opens! If you’re looking for a relaxing spot that blends nature with convenience, look no further. Douglas Forest RV Resort is a true hidden gem!
GuideWe enjoyed our stay at Hanscom, loved staying right across from a runway!!! We loved watching planes come and go!

We will definitely be staying at hascom in the near future!

ScoutI have never"Camped" at a facility as lovely as Foolhardy Hill. Because this is definitely not a"roughing it" campground, I had to put it in quotes. The proprietors, Katie and Biddy, are the friendliest and most helpful people you could ever meet. I would strongly suggest a stay at this"off the grid" location because it is convenient, cozy, and immaculately clean. basketball stars
ScoutGrateful I met the “owner”. Saved me from spending my money. Not welcoming or friendly AT ALL!
GuideThis is a gorgeous campground with clean facilities and responsive rangers. The sites on the North side are spacious & quiet. The other side of the campground (east) has a lot of noise pollution from the nearby road which is used by logging trucks. The lake is perfect for swimming, kayaking, and fishing. There are ample trails for hiking and kids can ride their bikes.
TravelerWe stayed late in the season during a chilly damp weekend and had the best time. We were right on the pond, so the kids could fish whenever. Lots of hiking trails (the dogs loved it). Can't wait to come back next year and explore the lake along the hike.
