Best RV Parks & Resorts near South Hadley, MA

Several RV parks near South Hadley accommodate a range of motorhome sizes. Northampton/Springfield KOA in Westhampton offers full hookup sites with 30/50 amp service, water, and sewer connections. Westover ARB Military FamCamp in Chicopee provides year-round access with both 30 and 50 amp electric options, though water is unavailable from October 15 to April 15. At Pine Lake RV Resort in Sturbridge, pull-through sites can handle larger rigs with 230 sites featuring full hookups. Douglas Forest RV Resort contains 90 sites with 30/50 amp service on primarily gravel pads. "Sites are spacious and easy to navigate, with full hookups and strong Wi-Fi," according to one camper.

Seasonal availability varies significantly across the region. Most RV parks operate from spring through fall, with limited winter options beyond Westover ARB FamCamp. Cell service fluctuates by location and carrier, with visitors reporting adequate Verizon coverage at most parks. Dump stations are available at larger facilities, though some parks like Highland Campground only permit gray water hookups with black water requiring pumping service. Access roads into some parks present challenges for larger units—a review noted that at Wells State Park "tree limbs and brush intruded on the driveway" making pull-through navigation difficult. Pet policies generally allow dogs with typical restrictions, and many parks charge additional fees for non-resident campers, particularly Massachusetts state parks which implement significant surcharges for out-of-state visitors.

    Douglas Forest RV Resort

    Awesome Campground In The Forest

    We 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!

    Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park in Sturbridge - [CLOSED}

    Pine lake , Sturbridge Ma.

    I’m told that this used to be Jellystone. 

    It’s now called Pine Lake Rv and cottages.

    Not knowing what the previous campground was like I can’t compare. But the new owners surely did a total revamp. There is approximately 30 cottages and many pull through and back in sites for any size RV.

    The bathroom/showers were all new and very nice and clean. It seems to be very family friendly. There’s an 8 acre lake with kayaks and fishing, a basketball court,   a game pavilion and a well stocked store. The RV sites are   spacious and pretty close to near perfect level.

    The problems I came across was there were very few places to dispose of camp trash, I had to actually walk around looking for one. The camp store doesn’t open until 9:00AM and closes at 4:00PM

     If you can, try and NOT stay on the back upper level ( the 700 ) spots. It’s around 100 feet from a very busy road and loud !

    Forest Lake Campgrounds

    Weekend stay, lots of seasonal camping

    Site was clean, easy to get in/out with 21' travel trailer. Swimming at the beach wasn't inviting. Lots of seasonal campers with years of lawn ornaments. There was a sense of the campground being clicky place. Pet friendly. Mixed emotions....
