    Cape Cod Campresort & Cabins

    Great 1st experience

    They have glamping sites, which include full hookup, fire pit with chairs, octagon shaped picnic table and stone patio for your rv front door. Pets welcomed, a ton of extra activities like row boat rental, kayak rental, mini golf for $3 all day, must bring a bicycle helmet if your riding bikes(state law), a small store, firewood for purchase, gated community, so you feel safe, 3 pools, laundry etc. We were impressed, only thing is main pool seems alittle run down and arcade area could look better than it does. Wish the had outdoor mo ie nights and crafts for kids

    Peters Pond RV Resort

    Great place for a family

    We stayed at the campground and loved it. School started late so we were able to book after the holiday in September. Weather was still warm. Pool was good, pond was great.  It was not crowded that time of year, so it was very enjoyable. We really enjoyed the beach raft, able to kayak and did some fishing. 

    Kids loved the little pool slide. Also enjoyed the golf cart rentals.  The only disappointment was that they did not have a fire pit at the rented cabin that we were allowed to use. That was disappointing. It’s one of the key things you do when camping, that needs to change. However we have booked rentals for this year and are looking forward to going back.

    The only place to camp on the island

    We have been going to this campground for years - it's the only place to camp on the island, and the only affordable way to stay on the island. The best thing about the campground is that it is wooded, and pretty much all the sites are surrounded on three sides by trees and shrubbery. So even though the sites are close, they feel somewhat private. The bathrooms are clean but always busy, but there are a few outdoor showers which are awesome! Unlike the cramped and humid indoor showers, the outside showers are roomy and very private and the open air makes them more comfortable on a hot, muggy day. There's a playground, a store with wifi outside, a game room which looks like something from the 80s, lol, and a small coin-op laundry room. Fire rings at each site plus a large community fire pit for those who don't feel like the hassle of building a fire themselves. SKUNKS!!! The skunks are super used to people, so you just have to ignore them, and they won't bother you. The young staff members are mostly from the Ukraine, etc., and are pleasant but often don't speak much English. The owners are not super friendly. A huge bonus is that the bus stops right at the entrance, so if you were without a car, it would be possible to camp here anyway (I've seen many people come in with the very basics pulled behind in carts or wagons, or back-packed in). The vineyard is amazing, but lodging is EXPENSIVE. Even though this place is pricey and continues to raise the rates, it's still cheaper than anyplace else.

    Bourne Scenic Park

    Nice location on the Cape

    This campground is on the banks of the Cape Cod Canal and owned and operated by the Bourne Recreational Authority. The park has a “state park” kind of feel but with amenities you would find at a private park. There is a wide diversity of activities including fishing, hiking, scheduled activities, a recreation hall with video games and jukebox, and store (outfitted with groceries, ice cream, beverages, and other miscellaneous items). The park is quite large with 465 sites, some of which have views of the canal. 

    Bourne Scenic Park is conveniently located near many of Cape Cod’s attractions including beaches, golf courses, historic landmarks, restaurants and shopping. The park is approximately one hour from Boston, Providence and a 30 minute ride to the ferry terminal taking you to Martha’s Vineyard or Nantucket. Closer to the park is downtown Bourne and Buzzards Bay which are just five minutes away and have groceries, fuel, restaurants, shopping, etc. The glass museum in the nearby town of Sandwich is very interesting with live glass blowing demonstrations. You can tour the Cape Cod Chip factory which makes delicious kettle chips.

    There are 465 RV sites to choose from that are water/electric (30/50 amp)/cable or no hook-up/tent sites. There are also lodges (with water, electric, cable) and rustic cabins. Of those 465 sites, 50% of them can be reserved for the entire season (April 1st – October 30th) which is nice if you want to stay long-term.  No sites have sewer; however, grey water dump stations are randomly placed throughout the campground and can be accessed with a garden hose. Some roads were paved while others were gravel/sand. Sites and patios were grass, sand, or gravel. There are six pull-thrus and the rest are back-ins. The one thing we did notice was that the site layout in some areas is not traditional meaning they are not all in the same direction and configuration. Some sites run parallel while the next one runs perpendicular. Restrooms and showers are spread throughout the park and were clean. There is a dump station located close to the park exit. 

    Leveling was not an issue for us in our site (C-25) but the majority of sites would be a problem for a motorhome to get level without the aid of blocks. In fact, some sites were ridiculously unlevel and took a scary amount of blocks. We choose a pull-thru because of our length. Utilities were well-placed and all worked well. The cable hook-up yielded 99 channels. Campsites have a picnic table and fire pit. There was no wifi but our Verizon phone picked up a strong signal.

    This park has lots of amenities - there are two pools, hiking/biking trails, playground, basketball courts, camp store/restaurant, pavilion, and picnic area. The park has live music on Saturday nights and various other activities like sack races and scavenger hunts. We liked that this park had a paved hiking/biking path and was big enough for a good walk. It was in a great location for exploring the Cape and the towns of Sandwich, Hyannis, Buzzards Bay and more. 

    The people in the office were super nice and helpful finding us a site. They gave us a map with all available sites for our size and let us drive around to decide. Our site was nice with a large patio and while we were there just before the park closed for the season it was very quiet. 

    We were there in the off season and enjoyed that very few people were in the park but we got the feel this place could be really busy in the summer. The park is a little pricey at $48/night but you are on the Cape so they can command that. 

    Dog owners will appreciate the paved trail that runs the length of the canal and easily accessible from the campground. There were a couple of hiking trails thru the woods that we found which served well for a dog walk. There is no off-leash dog park but the park is plenty big enough for a long dog walk.

    So Much to Do!

    Woodsy pet-friendly family camping with easy access to Cape Cod attractions. Our family of four plus one pet enjoyed biking, hiking, and pond swimming during our three night tent stay. Sites are grassy and tree-lined offering some privacy. Bathrooms were clean and showers were warm and spacious. We kept ourselves occupied within the park for most of our stay, but enjoyed venturing out to spend time enjoying the National Seashore, and outstanding sea food joints. Since camping means being close to nature be sure to bring bug spray and be prepared to deal with a bit of sand. In all, this state park made for a fun family outdoor adventure!

    Noisiest Campground

    I’ve been camping for over twenty years and this campground is by far the noisiest campground I have ever been to. If you are looking for any sort of peace and quiet this is NOT the place for you. The first night we were here it sounded like a massive stadium tailgate party. There was music, yelling, and voices coming from everywhere. It does die down as it gets closer to quiet hours but that’s at 11 pm and fires need to be out at midnight. So there is no sitting around the camp fire in the evening, listening to the crickets, they are drowned out by people noise. The second night wasn’t much better. The campground itself is well maintained and seems to really cater to large extended families and groups which is nice to see. There are a lot of sites here and they are very close together so there is little privacy. But the sites are paved for your camper, have nice fire pits and a picnic table. The hookups are good too. The staff is very friendly. They don’t seem to enforce many rules. A lot of unsupervised kids on bikes (we saw two different kids on different occasions who were lost),very little mask wearing, sites with way more people on them then there was suppose to be, lots of kids without helmets, constantly barking dogs. The place is definitely dog and kid friendly. It is near so many beaches and things to do and downtown Falmouth is really cute. It’s a good campground for a place to parking your camper and go off and do things, but if your looking for some privacy and quiet, this isn’t the place to go. We won’t be coming back here.

    Awesome Experience!

    There aren’t a lot of options on MV for camping, and MVFC hasn’t let that fact diminish their attention to detail in providing a clean, well maintained and active base camp for those seeking to explore the area, or just enjoy a wonderful camp-out with a ferry ride as an extra benefit. Ali and team were most accommodating and helpful, even taking the extra time to measure the campsite ahead of our arrival to ensure our new Patriot Camper X1 would fit! The bathroom and showers were near spotless despite the summer crowd, and it was common to see cleaning occurring throughout the day. Although we were interested in sightseeing the island as first time visitors, it was clear that there were many daytime and nighttime activities that had a lot of action….kickball and basketball games were non-stop and the community fire pit area is a nice touch. They even had a group painting event one evening! The other thing we noticed was that despite the large crowd, the posted quiet hours were indeed quiet! It was such a great spot that we attempted to cancel the second half of our trip and enjoy a few more days at MVFC, but as expected, they were booked up! On a side note, we had the chance to take the MV Governor ferry on the way back to the mainland. I mention this because it’s a smaller “open deck” ferry which in my opinion was a more unique experience than the other mega-ferrys in the fleet.

    All-in-all a near flawless experience with a family that takes pride in what they do…well done!

    It's all about the section you choose

    We stayed three days at the park in August in section 6X. The sites in the park are varied. I deliberately picked our site (#146) in 6X because it looked like it was one of the larger sites and had more privacy. Which it did. The sites along that section were quite large, spacious and wooded. Many of the sites in the park are right on the roads. These were large enough that you could set up your tent or trailer further back off the road and still have a good amount of space. Next to us was a large 5th wheel camper which took up most of the site so even the large sites are hard for the very large campers. Our loop was very quiet, which we appreciated. Each site had a fire pit and picnic table. There were potable water spigots around the campground loop as well as at the dumpstation. There are also dumpsters and recycle bins throughout the park. 

    The bathrooms were pretty clean. The bathhouse which is located near the front of the loops for 6 and 6X were not. But the shower stalls were plentiful (probably 10 in the bathhouse in the women's side) and free. There was good pressure and hot water. Take note, though, the bathhouse only had one toilet. 

    The check in was easy and informative. There are ranger programs and that information is posted at the camp store, the check in and the bathhouse. The camp store is well stocked and you can get ice and firewood there. 

    We enjoyed the bike paths and the kettle ponds while we were there. If you have kayaks or floats, definitely bring them. The kettle ponds are great for small water craft. And there are plenty of bike paths throughout the park as well as the Cape Cod rail trail. 

    I was concerned that we would feel crowded and the park would be loud. But our section was just fine and we had a wonderful visit.

    Marthas Vineyard Family Campground

    Perfectly located on the island

    I love this campground so much that I come to Martha’s Vineyard once a year to stay here. To be able to camp comfortably on this island and have access to all the island has to offer without spending an arm and a leg is what I love. You can take the ferry to Vineyard Haven ($15 round trip) and catch the island bus ($30 for a week pass) that will drop you right in front of the campground.

    It’s a rather large campground that has a lot of trees and each site is fairly large with a picnic table. At the front of the campground they have the summer RVs and about 20 rustic cabins if you’re not into tenting. This last year I stayed in a spot along the grass and it felt separate but with a great view of the office and all the activity on the grass. The camp store offers everything from postcards to air mattresses. For those of you, like myself, who don’t bring a car they even have a air pump at the office if you need it.

    There are outdoor showers and indoor showers where the bathrooms are as well as laundry facilities.

    The campground is family owned and the next generation just took over a year ago. This last Christmas they sent me a Christmas card... They are making great new changes and it definitely shows!


Guide to Siasconset

Cabins near Siasconset, Massachusetts typically range from rustic to modern accommodations with varying levels of privacy. The area sits on the eastern edge of Nantucket Island, characterized by sandy soil, maritime pine forests, and proximity to several kettle ponds and coastal beaches. Campgrounds in the region maintain specific quiet hours, typically from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m., with strict enforcement during peak summer season.

What to do

Biking access: Several campgrounds connect directly to the Cape Cod Rail Trail, making bike travel convenient for cabin guests. At Sweetwater Forest, "the bike trails are a short ride away as well," notes a camper, highlighting the campground's strategic location for cyclists exploring the region without needing to drive.

Pond swimming options: Multiple freshwater swimming options exist beyond ocean beaches. A visitor to Wellfleet Hollow State Campground remarked, "Great Pond and Long Pond are both close by and lovely swimming. You can also walk to Duck Pond from the campground," providing alternatives when ocean conditions are rough.

Canal fishing: For anglers staying in cabins near Siasconset, Bourne Scenic Park offers direct access to the Cape Cod Canal. "Convenient location on the Cape Cod Canal," comments a fisher who found the park ideal for daily fishing trips while having cabin amenities to return to each evening.

What campers like

Private beach access: Some cabin areas offer exclusive shoreline options away from public crowds. Campers Haven RV Resort provides "private beach, some activities best place ever!" according to a returning guest who appreciates the ability to avoid the crowded public beaches during peak season.

Off-season tranquility: Cabins available during shoulder seasons offer a completely different experience with minimal crowds. At Martha's Vineyard Family Campground, "A large, but very organized campground! Many (we were told 75%) sites are seasonal folks but immaculately kept sites," noted a September visitor who enjoyed the more relaxed atmosphere.

Late-season rates: Costs for cabin accommodations drop significantly after Labor Day. A camper at Peters Pond RV Resort observed, "We stayed at the campground and loved it. School started late so we were able to book after the holiday in September. Weather was still warm," highlighting the value of post-summer timing when planning cabin stays.

What you should know

Reservation timing: Most cabins require significant advance booking during summer. "This place fills up FAST in the summer— so a reservation is usually smart," reports a Nickerson State Park visitor, noting that for July-August stays, reservations often open 6 months in advance and fill quickly.

Ferry logistics: For Martha's Vineyard accommodations, understanding transportation is essential. A guest notes, "You can take the ferry to Vineyard Haven ($15 round trip) and catch the island bus ($30 for a week pass) that will drop you right in front of the campground," providing specific costs for budget planning.

Varied pet policies: Rules regarding animals differ significantly between locations. At Wellfleet Hollow State Campground, "No alcohol or pets allowed," states a reviewer, highlighting the importance of checking specific pet regulations before booking a cabin stay.

Tips for camping with families

Activity access: Many cabin-oriented campgrounds offer comprehensive on-site recreation options. Cape Cod Campresort & Cabins features "a small lake with rentals & fishing, 2 pools, playground, store, etc.," according to a visitor who found the amenities sufficient to entertain children without leaving the property.

Playground quality: Facilities for children vary significantly between locations. At Bourne Scenic Park, a family noted "Lots of playgrounds for different ages, bounce pad (in-ground), pool," helping parents identify age-appropriate recreation options when selecting cabin accommodations.

Noise considerations: Sound levels differ dramatically between properties. A reviewer at Bay View Campground shared, "A large, but very organized campground! Many sites are seasonal folks but immaculately kept sites," indicating a more settled atmosphere compared to transient-heavy locations.

Tips from RVers

Site access challenges: Many cabin areas have narrow roads that can create access issues. At Nickerson State Park Campground, "There are multiple camping loops (7) for various sized groups/vehicles/campers," explains a regular visitor, advising guests to research specific loops that accommodate larger rigs when cabin availability is limited.

Dump station locations: Properties without full hookups require planning for waste management. "No on site drainage for black water (grey takes an adapter). You will need a poop tote," advises a seasonal resident at Bourne Scenic Park, providing practical insight for RVers considering cabin alternatives.

Winter options: Limited year-round accommodations exist in the region. Shawme Crowell State Forest Campground operates "all year," making it one of the few options for cabin rentals or RV parking during winter months when most other facilities close completely.
