Guide to Plymouth

Yurt camping near Plymouth, Massachusetts offers access to the region's kettle ponds formed by glacial activity thousands of years ago. The forested landscape features relatively flat terrain with sandy soil typical of southeastern Massachusetts. Fall temperatures range from 45-65°F with less humidity than summer months, making it ideal for camping from September through October.

What to do

Fishing at kettle ponds: Visitors to Myles Standish State Forest can enjoy fishing in the crystal-clear spring-fed ponds. "The pond water was very clear, seeing as they are fed from natural springs under the ponds," notes Kyle C., who recommends weekday visits when "the 7 closest spots to us were empty, it was like having the woods to ourselves."

Canal biking paths: The Cape Cod Canal Trail near Scusset Beach State Reservation offers miles of paved cycling routes. "The campground is on the north shore of the Cape Code canal and provides access to a sandy beach, a jetty, and the Cape Cod Canal Trail for biking and walking," explains Jean C., who notes that Plymouth is "nearby to explore."

Yurt stargazing: Plymouth yurts provide excellent night sky viewing, especially at sites away from campground lights. At Scusset Beach, "the lack of trees gives you a great spot to stargaze, especially if you focus your view out over the ocean, away from the lights of the mainland," according to Angela T.

What campers like

Spacious sites: Campers appreciate the roominess at Barretts Pond Campground where site J33 is described as "among the largest and nicest with a pond view." Mike T. notes there's "a lot of variation in quality across the lots, but generally good spacing and great views."

Private yurt accommodations: Yurt campers enjoy the seclusion available at certain sites. "Sites are nice and level and large. Vegetation between sites for privacy," writes Amie C. about her stay at Myles Standish State Forest, mentioning the quiet atmosphere in certain loops.

Year-round options: Unlike seasonal campgrounds, some sites remain open beyond summer. Jean C. notes that Scusset Beach "offers an extended camping season, although the extended season is restricted to self-contained units as the restrooms are turned off."

What you should know

Alcohol restrictions: State forest campgrounds prohibit alcoholic beverages. Randy R. from Charge Pond Campground notes: "When you are sitting by the campfire, sometimes, chilling with a beer or another adult beverage is nice. Not in Massachusetts State Parks. No alcohol allowed."

Shower facilities: Bathroom and shower quality varies widely between campgrounds. At Myles Standish, Kim R. shares: "Unfortunately, our [bathhouse] did not have hot water. We were told if we wanted it, we could go to any of the other loops."

Cell service limitations: Mobile reception can be spotty throughout the region. "Cell coverage is iffy in a lot of spots," warns Desiree M. about Myles Standish, while Jean C. notes that "cell phone coverage throughout the forest is poor to absent; download maps for offline use."
