    Green Falls Campground

    Inexpensive and primitive

    We like Green Falls. Again, it is inexpensive and kinda primitive, but it sure also quiet and a real woods camping environment. Take a hike around the pond, fish and swim in season, and enjoy a laid back approach to your time here.

    Mount Misery Campground

    Great spot for no frills camping

    We loved Mt. Misery. We spent $17/night, and we know what to expect at that price point. We stayed during fall foliage season and even though CT has had a drought this year, there were still pretty colors to see. We hiked to the overlook of Mt. Misery and had a great time geocaching and enjoying the trails. We found the campsites to be decent, and a number of them did afford privacy and space, we had 4 people and 3 dogs on our site, and had plenty of room for our travel trailer and 2 tents. We will be back here for sure.

    KOA Mystic

    From the first interaction you see this KOA is customer focused. The staff is friendly, professional and helpful. The grounds are well maintained as are the facilities.

    Boston/Cape Cod KOA

    Koa Cape Cod

    Stayed in several KOAs over last few weeks. I would say needs attention. Appearance is not up to standard. Restrooms and grounds are not as clean by comparison.

    Burlingame State Park Campground

    Giant area to pick a spot!

    So half the camp ground is closed for bathroom renovations but that still left the whole other half open and the whole campground by the water! The showers aren’t good, but that always comes with coin showers and not being able to choose the temperature. Site wise no one was around us so it was extra quiet and the park rangers are always around so always help if you need it. Walmart is less than ten minutes away too if you’re needing anything. Great location and best park in Rhode Island. Can’t wait to go back and have the bathroom renovations done!

    Normandy Farms Campground

    Loud and crowded!

    Know what you are getting... This is a family resort that charges$20/per night, per person, OVER the two people rate. It is loud, crowded, with golf carts and kids running around. It is a resort campground with pools, frisbee court and etc... This is not a quiet, restful place to stay to visit Boston and the surrounding area or to visit family in town. Entry is gated and controlled. Want to bring your college daughter back after dinner- forget it,$20 for her and$20 her friend, for 1-2 hour visit after 7:00 PM at night! When we return, we will stay at Spacious Skies CG or the state park. The cost and inconvenience is not worth it!

    Fishermens Memorial State Park Campground

    Close to a beach, serenity hiding in city life

    Some areas to hike on a small scale. Nice view of the water. No ocean views. Many unlevel sites. Fairly close together.

    Mount Misery Campground

    Lived up to its name

    Sites/facilities were as expected and I could have been very satisfied with our 1 night stay.  There are a lot of rules for camping here, which is confusing because there does not appear to be anyone to enforce them.  Late arrivals? Noise? I suspect that the couple who pulled into the site next to ours after 10PM with two cars and an infant are homeless and poached the site.  They were not there for the hiking or the camping experience and their infant child screamed or babbled through most of the night.  That plus the adults talking, car doors opening and closing, engine running, baby einstein videos playing...  In the morning they packed up and left.  I'm not an advocate of criminalizing homelessness, but if you are looking for a night in the woods listening to crickets and owls, this is not the place.


Guide to Uxbridge

Camping options near Uxbridge, Massachusetts range from seasonal tent spots to full-service RV sites within a heavily wooded region known for its kettle ponds and glacial terrain. The area averages 48 inches of rainfall annually and features elevation changes from 250-400 feet, creating diverse camping environments. Most Uxbridge-area campgrounds are located within an agricultural belt that provides natural buffer zones around camping areas.

What to do

Hiking and trail systems: George Washington State Campground offers extensive hiking opportunities with well-marked trails and varying difficulty levels. "The hiking is some of the best I have seen from a campground in the area, with a huge system of trails which are all very well marked," notes visitor Joey S. at George Washington State Campground.

Fishing in controlled environments: West Thompson Lake Campground provides catch-and-release fishing with unique wildlife viewing opportunities. A camper reports, "Take a long paddle up the river and you'll be escorted by hundreds of bluebirds and cedar waxwings. Fishing here is all catch and release." The lake connects to multiple waterways accessible from the camping area.

Water recreation beyond swimming: Many campgrounds offer alternative water activities when swimming conditions aren't ideal. "There is swimming at the lake but it looked way too dirty," noted a visitor at George Washington State Campground, but they compensated with excellent kayaking and canoeing options instead.

Disc golf access: Several campgrounds feature disc golf courses suitable for beginners and experienced players. "Hiking trails galore, disk golf, and swimming nearby. So fun!" reported one camper at West Thompson Lake Campground. Equipment rental is available at most locations offering this activity.

What campers like

Spacious wooded sites: Campgrounds near Uxbridge frequently feature tree coverage that creates natural separation between sites. A camper at Sutton Falls Camping Area commented, "We were delighted when we learned we had the little peninsula of site P1 all to ourselves. Stunning views across the large pond, and serving as a wonderful halfway rest/respite on the journey from NYC to Belfast, ME."

Clean bathroom facilities: Many campers specifically note the cleanliness of facilities as a highlight. "Sites were well spaced and provided some privacy depending on your site choice. Grounds were well kept, bathrooms were very clean with hot showers (bring quarters, $1.50 for 6mins)," reported a visitor at George Washington State Campground.

Security measures: Campgrounds in the region often implement safety protocols that campers appreciate. At Holiday Acres Campground, a visitor noted, "All entrances are gated with key codes and there was a security guard on staff part of the time." These security measures are standard at many established campgrounds in the area.

Off-leash dog areas: Several campgrounds feature dedicated pet spaces. Normandy Farms Campground provides "a huge dog park which has a dog washing station, water fountains for dogs and humans, agility-type obstacles for them to play on, dog kennels, and a bin with balls and Frisbees," according to visitor reports.

What you should know

Site leveling requirements: Some campgrounds require significant effort to level RVs and trailers. A camper at Circle Campground Farm noted, "The site we stayed at (47) took a little leveling to get right but it was pretty nice having views of the water."

Cell service limitations: Remote campgrounds often have connectivity challenges that impact remote work capabilities. At Circle Campground Farm, a camper reported, "Without our antenna we we only had 1 bar of both Verizon and AT&T. No signal at all on T-Mobile/Sprint. With our antenna we got two bars of Verizon and AT&T but it wasn't enough to not drop a few calls."

Bridge clearance concerns: Some campgrounds have access points with height restrictions. A visitor to Sutton Falls Camping Area mentioned, "There's a covered bridge that scared me a little due to size concerns but its quite tall and wide enough. Our rig is 11'9" to the top of the A/C and we had no issues."

Seasonal camper concentration: Several campgrounds cater primarily to long-term guests. At Holiday Acres Campground, a visitor observed, "It appeared to be mostly seasonal / long term campers and people that had developed good relationships with their neighbors."

Tips for camping with families

Multiple pool options: Some facilities separate swimming areas by age group. At Normandy Farms Campground, "They have an adult only pool and other pools for both adults and kids," providing appropriate spaces for different age groups.

Organized holiday activities: Holiday weekends often feature special programming. One visitor to Normandy Farms noted, "We stayed here for a few nights when they celebrated Halloween 🎃. It is super easy to get around. They had tons of festive activities."

Check bathroom renovation status: Many campgrounds are updating facilities gradually. A Sutton Falls visitor reported, "They remodeled one set of bathrooms in the back and the front was the old set. They are gross my kids wouldn't use them and I dont blame them for I rarley did either. We would just drive to the other one unless is was late at night."

Family gathering areas: Campgrounds often provide communal spaces that accommodate multi-family outings. "There is a nice beach for children. The water was warm and clean. You can kayak or canoe. The dogs cannot go on the beach, but they can go in the boats," noted a visitor at George Washington State Campground.

Tips from RVers

Electrical protection essential: Ensure proper surge protection when connecting to campground power. At Stateline Campresort & Cabins, RVers reported clean, level sites with reliable electrical service, though they recommend using surge protectors as standard practice.

Gate closure timing: Some campgrounds restrict after-hours entry. "Only complain is that they close the gate to enter at 9pm," noted a visitor at West Thompson Lake Campground, which affects late arrivals and dinner plans off-site.

Full hookup distribution: Many campgrounds offer limited full-service sites. "There are plenty of sites to choose from the 'premium' full hook-up (50 amp) to basic with just water and electric and many others in between," reported a Normandy Farms visitor, suggesting early reservations for premium sites.

Specialized check-in procedures: Some campgrounds have complex arrival processes. A Holiday Acres camper explained, "If you come in from the West you'll see an entrance, if you pull in you'll then be able to see signs that tell you to go another 1/4 mile to the office to check in. This area doesn't have enough room to make a u-turn unless your rig is pretty small."
