Best RV Parks & Resorts near Siasconset, MA

Having a Thousand Trails membership I tried every single campground that’s included in the Northeast and this is the nicest one. It’s really quiet (which I appreciate immensely) with the exception of daily leaf blowers. The upside of that annoying noise is of course that the campground looks organized and clean. There is a huge area of walking and bike paths adjacent to the campground (enter next to the blue bathhouse on A road.) the woman at the check in was very nice and helpful. That being said it is still more of a mobile home park, just like all the other TT campgrounds. I was here early in the season (May) and again late in the season (October). Not sure how crazy it gets in July and August. I was pleasantly surprised that they put brand new picnic tables on all the transient sites. Big improvement! AT&T hotspot worked well even for zoom calls. Verizon on my phone a bit weak. Camp link Wifi costs extra but actually works well! So it’s worth the cost, if you don’t have any other options.

Found this campground last minute on way down road. We have a 40' 5th wheel (big rig) with 4 slide outs. Would have prob been in a Walmart parking lot, IF the mngr, Karen, wasn't so AWESOME!!! I called after hours to Sun RV Resorts corporate office. They got ahold of this great campground mngr, who called me back within a hour or so, while we were still on I-95. She happily agreed to let us head on in well after dark at almost 10pm. Came over, from her nearby home, to welcome us at gate with a super friendly, upbeat smile and a gift kit for our pup. Made us feel so WELCOME! Led us, via her car, to our open, pull-thru spot & said coffee would be on at 8am. She was so accommodating to our needs & multiple schedule changes. We wound up staying another night. She was like a cheerleader for us to have a great time. THANK YOU SO MUCH KAREN...you're the best! She made our experience here what it was...terrific! It must be noted, that this is an extremely large, full, town-like campground, packed full of mostly permanent seasonals, or full time occupant spaces. I do imagine that at high season, it is prob an absolute zoo, with noise & kids everywhere. We were there in late October (during COVID), so very quiet. Located in nice area, directly across road from beach on Nantucket Sound.

This was a very nice campground. Our particular site was a little on the small side, without much greenery to separate from the other sites but the weather was horrible so we spent most of our time inside playing games anyway. The restrooms and showers were very clean! The people who run this spot are nothing but friendly and helpful. There was a short but very nice nature trail within the grounds. There are also full hookups for those with RVs. The tent sites looked very nice and more private, but not sure about hookups in those spots.

There are many things to do close by- a lot of bay side beaches, coffee shops and a wonderful bike trail. Nickerson is right down the street as well which opens up a lot of recreation options.

Would totally recommend and would stay here again.

Scusset is a very popular beach and campground in the summer. It's located close to the Sagamore Bridge on the mainland side. Traffic can be messy in the summer, especially on weekend days!

The campground itself is a haven for RVs. There are 5 "wooded" tent sites, where campers are allowed to have tents as well as a fire on the site. All other sites are located in a wide open area and are best suited for motor homes and trailers. Note, only the tent sites are allowed to have fires, all other sites you must do your cooking on a stove, and no fires are allowed. There is a communal fireplace near the entrance of the campground where everyone gathers at dusk to share a nice big fire.

Most sites have a paved driveway for your camper and space for a small car, and there is an overflow parking lot if needed. Flush toilets, sinks and showers are available in the main bathroom building and are cleaned on a regular basis. During beach season there is another restroom down by the beach with outdoor showers to get off all the sand! Sometimes the refreshments stand is open.

The beach is big, open and beautiful with lots of shells to hunt and marine life to check out. At the edge of the beach is the beginning of the Cape Cod Canal, and its walking/bike path. Along the canal are inlets to let you back into the campground.

In the morning you'll see lots of folks fishing, watch for old line/hooks.

Because the camp has so few trees, the winds can be gnarly. On the flip side, 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.

Scusset Beach offers an extended camping season, although the extended season is restricted to self-contained units as the restrooms are turned off.  Also, there are only 5 designated tent sites during the peak season, so if you want to tent camp here, you'd best make a reservation well in advance.. You cannot reserve an RV site for a just a tent, though if you have a trailer, you may also have a tent on the site. The 5 tent sites have their own fire pits, but the RV sites must use a community fire pit, though in mid-November, just before the campground closed for the season, RVers used the firepit at a tent site that provided some additional protection from the wind.

The RV sites have paved parking pads and picnic tables, but the area to the side of the parking pads sometimes slopes away, so it's less usable for chairs, etc.  In the 2020 camping season, every other campsite was closed (thus the picnic tables across the entrance of the parking pad). Some of the sites, 32 34, 36, are along the back of the campground closer to the trees/scrub, and so have some degree of privacy and protection as compared to the others in the wide open park.

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. There's a nice playground for youth. You can fish from the shore or jetty, No need to cross the bridge to the Cape. Plymouth is also nearby to explore.

This state forest campground is located just over the Sagamore bridge, across the Cape Cod canal. It's a basic, no-frills campground, with more than half the sites designated as tent only; a few of the sites are designated for tent/pop-up. The tent sites tend to be on short spurs that may be hilly and uneven, so would be difficult to navigate with a trailer or larger vehicle. If you don't have camping gear, there are 6 yurts available for rent, though they were not available during the 2020 covid season. The bathrooms offer showers and are undergoing some renovations in 2020. No hookups, but there is a dump station. 

If you have young kids, they'll love the new playground area. That's really about the only attraction within the campground, though there are some hiking and biking trails. The Cape Cod Canal Bikeway is nearby and provides easy biking and exploration. If you're looking for a beach experience and you'll be there a few days, consider buying a weekly parking pass. During the week, it may be worthwhile to cross back across the Sagamore bridge to visit Scusset Beach State Reservation, but weekend summer traffic will likely make that prohibitive.

If you forgot food, Market Basket is a short distance away.

State run campground located at beginning of cape cod route 6. The sites can accommodate large rvs and tents. They are dog friendly however, not allowed on beach during peak summer season. No fires are allowed and no great views of ocean. The cape cod bike path and lots of great fishing off canal located right next to campground.

This park is huge! The 418 mostly wooded sites are divided into 7 sections and even more loops. You can find walk-in sites, tent sites, RV sites or yurts. The only thing missing is hook-ups. Water is readily available and there's a dump station, but you won't find electric. I liked some of the sites on the top and backs of the loops in the Section 6 area.

The attraction for me is the central location on the Cape Cod Rail Trail. Additionally, a number of beaches on Cape Cod Bay are only a couple of miles away, so you can easily bike over and avoid the parking struggle. There are bike trails in the park as well, but hillier than those outside the park. You can fill many hours hiking, geocaching, fishing, boating, and swimming. If you don't have a bike or a boat, they'are available to rent in or near the park. If you are seeking the dunes and expansive coastal beaches, you will need to leave the park and contend with traffic, but there's plenty to keep you busy without ever leaving the park.

Of note, the rates are quite reasonable for MA residents, but significantly higher for out of state campers. Even so, it's a bargain for the prime location!

My family of three recently stayed there for six nights (site 57). As many have already mentioned, the campground is quiet, especially after 10pm. Everything is well maintained and clean. Well situated within Brewster, with a great small grocery store a two minute walk from the campground entrance. Centrally located to the sites and ports along the Cape (about 45 min to Provincetown, 35 min to Woods Hole for MV ferry). Reasonably priced for the location and campground amenities. The owner’s adult daughter is your main poc, but all the staff are incredibly helpful and can recommend things to see while on the Cape.

The showers/bathrooms were always very clean. The showers offered plenty of hot water and water pressure (these aren’t your typ state park showers!). Laundromat available at both bathhouses. I might add super hot dryers, so $1 and 20 min will dry most things. $3 for a standard washing machine load.

Lots of sites to select from. Most seem relatively easy to get into, based on the rigs there. Sites are level and ground cover is either grass, gravel, or wood chips. Didn’t notice bare ground at the sites. Ample variety of hookups from water only to full service. Good cell service (AT&T); free Wi-Fi offered by campground but a little weak in the back area near 57.

Only gripes I had was the lack of vegetation screening between my site and others, but suggest calling the camp host to get recommendations for a site that offers better privacy. Also, and admittedly this may be the nature of sharing a campground with big rigs, people typically leave on their travel trailer/class A exterior floodlights/amber lights till late in the evening. With the limited vegetative screening, and the tiered campsites due to the campground’s topography, it was hard for us to enjoy a naturally dark campsite while trying to enjoy a campfire. As mentioned, alternative sites there may not have this issue so call the staff beforehand.

We’ll definitely be back to this great campground that has been in business for more than 50 years!

All around, this place is a nice and quiet place to camp on the cape at an affordable price. A single campsite without electricity and water hookups is $30 and they are quite spacey. Nestled in the woods with tables and plenty of space for setting up tents and/or hammocks. My only complaint was with the campground staff. The woman who handled my reservation was not very welcoming. Sure, she did the job - explaining the rules, helping me pick a site, taking my payment - but very coldly. Imagine really being in the mood for filling breakfast at a diner and you get there and your waiter/waitress takes your order with a bite in their voice and a glare in their eyes. Sure, you'll get your food and it will be satisfying, but the service ruined the experience a bit. You didn't feel very welcome there. Anyone could cook eggs and hashbrowns for themselves at home just like many people could camp in their backyard. You go to diners and campgrounds for something else that you can't get from your kitchen or backyard.

I would say this campground is definitely better suited for RVers. There are very few tent sites in the park, and it's pretty loud between road noise and generators from the RVs.

Pros: The site we stayed in was pretty large and private. The campground is centrally located, so if you're visiting the area it's a great spot to be in if you'll be going off for day trips all over the area. The bathhouse was fairly decent.

Cons: The prices are a bit steep, even in the off season (we paid 42 bucks a night for the last weekend they were open in fall!). It is not quiet and relaxing either - we could hear car traffic all night over the bridge (a given since it's directly under the canal bridges), but also on route 6.

I wouldn't suggest this as a place to relax and get away into the woods. I would recommend it as a cheap alternative to hotels for visiting the cape. I probably won't be back here.

Great place to spend a summer vacation. This state park is an oasis in the middle of a  busy tourist destination. The sites are large, although no hook ups. Lots of programs for kids. Miles of bike paths that connect to many towns on Cape Cod. Beautiful beaches are just down the road from the campground. Overall a wonderful place to camp.

Dont allow dogs during peak season.

The staff are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. They try their hardest to make the check-in process informational while also seemless and short and sweet. While the facilities may not be the most modern (I personally love the rustic appeal and genuine history of the place) they are well taken care of and one of the cleanest campgrounds I’ve been to. I’ve camped in both shoulder (May/June) and peak season (July/August) and while the shoulder season may be slower it’s quiet and peaceful and dogs are allowed. Peak season is full of activities on the campground (activities for the kids such as tie-dyeing, candy bar bingo, etc. They also have live-music every weekend and food trucks and ice cream stands). Honestly, one of my favorite stays!

General: Over 450 sites (tent 20 amp w/e; 30 amp w/e; 30 amp w/e/s; 50 amp w/e/s; 50 amp w/e; 30, 50 or premium seasonal) 

Site Quality: Generally good. Sites are gravel. We had originally reserved Site 98 but there was a large rock and tree roots making it challenging to position our van. We were able to move to Site 95 which was much better. Each site has a picnic table and rock firepit. Trees provide some amount of privacy between many sites. 

Bath/Shower house: Spotlessly clean. The cleaning schedule indicates it is cleaned three times daily. 

Activities/Amenities:

*Some are seasonal and were closed when we were there in October. These include three pools, a food truck, coffee, and ice cream.

* Others include a pristine laundry room (but you have to purchase a laundry card, so one load is a minimum of $10), shuffleboard, playground, tennis/pickleball, volleyball, basketball, horseshoe pit, soccer and baseball fields, firewood and propane fill, free cable and WiFi, dog park. I’ve probably forgotten a few but you get the idea… 

We chose this campground because of its proximity to the Woods Hole ferry terminal. It is not our typical preferred campground but for one night in the off-season, it was very pleasant. It is billed as a family-friendly campground, and I imagine it would be very different during high season. We gladly forgo seasonal amenities for a quieter stay. The staff was very present and welcoming. Note that it is located on a busy highway and if you are approaching from the south, the turn into the campground is hair-raising! There is some road noise at some sites but not for most of them.

Child friendly cramp ground with people who rent spots year-round, although the campground is only open seasonally. 

We listed late summer after most of the normal tourist attractions had shut down for the season. The campground was well maintained and staffed despite it being the start of the shoulder season. The sites are nicely separated though some are a bit challenging to find. We enjoyed our spot and had a nice buffer between our site and others. We did have several evening visitors, up close and personal. So if you stay here be ware that the skunks are very active. At one point there was one inside our tent vestibule. However, we left them alone (we were also visited while sitting around our fire one evening) and they returned the favor.

The restrooms and showers were quite clean and the property appeared to be well kept. I really appreciated and enjoyed the close proximity to the biking trails. It was nice to ride all the way to the Salt Pond Visitors Center.
