    Pinewood Lodge Campground

    Good, No- Frills Campground

    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).

    Bear Brook State Park Campground

    Nice, Clean but crowded, and most sites are close together

    This was my first time staying at Bear Brook, it's an easy campground to get to, once you get to the west gate it's about a 4-mile drive to the campground, if you're coming from the east it's about 1.5 miles.

    The first impression was impressed by the size and how organized everything was. Check-in was easy, then driving to my site (#7) took a minute.

    That's when I realized the sites were 4' apart in the section I was staying in. Other sites on each end are further apart.

    The campground has a beach, a playground, a Ball field, and a store. The roads are all easy to drive on but narrow.

    Very Enjoyable 1 night stay

    We enjoyed our tent site with a wooden lean-to. Overall very private and peaceful, however the only drawback is that people took frequent casual walks pass the area all day long. There's really no way around that.

    We did not get a chance to enjoy the amenities, but they all looked nice and well thought out.

    We will return.

    Recreation camping close to Lexingtin and Concord

    The HanscomField Fam Camp is a wooded recreational camp for military families and retirees, as well as for RV camping for active duty military on temporary orders. The campground offers RV sites, some with hookups, as well as more walk-in secluded tent sites as well as one yurt tent. The campground is peaceful and quiet, although adjacent to a very busy AFB. Proximity to the base provides access to the base exchange and other facilities, but the quiet location is a recreational retreat centered around several indoor and outdoor gathering spaces such as basketball and outdoor sports, and an indoor game and recreation room complete with crafts supplies for the kiddos and tourism info for the lical area. In the immediate vicinity are the villages of Lexington and Concord as well as the Minute Man National Park and Walden Pond, so the campground makes a great basecamp for exploration of the area’s rich culture and history. You are also not too far from Cambridge, and can easily access Boston from there if you like.

    There are several clean modern bath houses, with hot showers and flush toilets. The office staff is very helpful and friendly!

    Dogs are welcome too.

    Winter Island Park

    Great for visiting Salem

    We stayed here during the month of October, for two nights back to back (in different spots). We wanted to come to Salem for the Halloween season, and didn’t think it would be that bad, despite many warnings about how crowded it gets (it gets CROWDED). 

    I got our spots at Winter Island by repeatedly and obsessively hitting “refresh” for two days straight, and it paid off- couldn’t believe we snagged two nights there. I was worried about driving an RV through Salem, but Google took us around the main part of the city and it was fine. We saw much bigger class As and 5th wheels there (we are in a 26ft class c). So, no issues driving. 

    Sites are power& water only, and you drive up the road on your way out to dump at the wastewater treatment plant (available for campground guests and Salem residents only). The dump hole is awkwardly placed and gross (we saw the previous dumper’s remnants!) but it was fine. 

    The campground has good wifi that reaches throughout the campground, as well as good cell reception. We walked from there to town, but if that’s too far then there are Lyft and a trolley available. I believe the trolley was $22/adult, for a full day of a hop on/ hop off deal and a tour of the city.

    Only one negative!!!

    Absolutely beautiful. When we drove in we fell in love with the grounds!! We were in site B9. We have a 25” B+ and basically had to park sideways and use a lot of leveling blocks to get our rig level. As we walked around we spoke to others who had similar problems with the sites not being level. We recommend this campground but just be prepared and bring plenty of leveling blocks! The office did provide us with additional blocks to level so they were very accommodating.

    Good for reservation in the last minute

    We went just for one night with a tent because our 5 years old loooves camping, so we reserved this at the last minute, and when we get there, well, the tent sites are way too close to each other, thank god we just had one other guy next to us but was very uncomfortable being too close, no privacy at all, and lots of noise at night from kids staying in RVs, screaming until 11pm. The bathrooms were a little dirty, but not awful, and we didn’t read well that the place doesn’t have a grill for cooking, just the fire ring, so we had go hunting for one at a store very far away. Forget about cellphone signal, it was 0.

    Best Loop at MSSF

    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.

    Our Favorite Campground

    Normandy Farms is perfect. The grounds are beautiful, the staff is lovely. The sites are level, the bathrooms/showers are spotless with piped in music and hairdryers. It's one of the few campgrounds that really is a resort. This was our second visit and it just keeps getting better. They've added a huge covered area with a snack bar and a big TV over the fireplace next to the Recreation Lodge. It's not far from a park and ride area, so taking the train into Boston is easy.

    Close-ish to town. Zero cell signal.

    This is more of a place where people actually live. They do however have temporary spots for 1-2 weeks at a time.

    It’s just a few mins away from town. Would stay here again if there wasn’t a closer campsite with better cell signal.

    Wonderful time!!

    This campground is top-notch. The wifi worked perfectly for steaming tv despite the campground being fully booked for Memorial Day weekend.

    The employees are the nicest people you will ever meet. At night someone is always driving around with firewood for sale.

    Most sites are grass, ours was mostly dirt due to trees overhead. We were tucked in between seasonal campers, who are all kind and compassionate humans.

    The washer/dryer setup is immaculate with brand new equipment. Small washer $3.25, big washer $4.25, dryers $2 for 45 minutes.

    Would absolutely visit again.

    Normandy Farms Campground

    Great place

    Absolutely love this campground.  It has so many things for the kids to do.  Everyone is so friendly.  Can't wait to go back for the 4th of July.

    Dixons Coastal Maine Campground

    Dixons campground

    This is a nice smaller campground, nice clean bathrooms, friendly staff. The location to the coastal beaches of York, Wells, Agunquit and Kennebunkport is the main reason we stayed here. It’s one of our favorite locations in Maine and we will definitely stay here again.
