"The pool is huge and clean and there is a ton of seating around. The shop has everything you could need. There are horseshoes, can jam, basketball, and bocce. There’s a playground and a rec room."
"Easily accessible by car to shopping, groceries, etc. but no hiking or good walking paths from the campground."
"Small river/ brook rind behind the campground. Some shots have nice sound of river right behind the sites. No pond or pool for swimming."
$17 - $35 / night
"We really lucked out with getting one of a few sites left on Memorial Day weekend - after walking the campground, I think we would have chosen the same one again! "
"It was like walking with fur on the bottom of our shoes. The dog also got needles stuck all over and we had to use our COVID alcohol gel to get the glue off. "
$14 - $55 / night
"This small state forest campground in north/central Massachusetts is just up the hill from Damon Pond. I suggest downloading maps before you head out because cell service is iffy in the area. "

$17 - $35 / night
"Swimming in a pond or a short drive to a bigger lake (camping pass covers both). One of my favorites. It's kind of a hidden gem in north central Massachusetts."
"I loved it here, it was a great little campground for massachusetts"

"Campsites are well shaded but if you have an RV take the time to rent an RV site otherwise backing in will put you in and awkward position as the mixed use “standard” sites are oriented towards tent camping"
"The campsite is big and away from another site. You can easilly access to hiking trails.
The staff there are friendly and helpful. It's definitely a plus."
$17 - $55 / night
"As a caveat, waterfront in this instance was more of a water view as the lake was on the other side of the campground road and a large open area with trees."
"So the lake flooded, the roads, and the beach. We were the only one s that didn't have to move sites. We had a beautiful view, the lake flooded almost to the roadway in front of us."
$42 - $65 / night
"the rules but everybody does and it's a good experience, everyone is very friendly the owners are wonderful people and super friendly very helpful it's clean they offer a lot of stuff to do right on a lake"
GuideVery friendly. Good size lots. A lot of seasonal campers there give this place a neighborhood atmosphere. 10 to 15 minutes to stores and other needs. 30 minutes to coast. Portsmouth harbor cruise and many small coastal pubs and restaurants. Here is the “BUT”. Wi-Fi is barely usable after 8am. And phone signal is spotty at best. Had to walk around to find signal for phone call.
ScoutWe stayed in the cabin with a kitchenette and bathroom. The shower worked well and it was nice not to have to walk to the restrooms, though they were close by. Our stay was during the week so it wasn’t very crowded. Our son liked the playground and it was unfortunately too cold for the pool but it looked fun! It has a big slide and what looks like a splash pad. We enjoyed the arcade while waiting for our laundry to finish. The main trail leads to a kayak launch which we didn’t take advantage of but had a nice walk. Highly suggest checking out Tenney Farm nearby for fresh produce and treats.
ScoutRangers are friendly and very helpful. This is right on the ocean with the beach just over the sand dunes. The cost is $70 a night. A little high, but we'll worth the cost to be right on Hampton Beach. There is a yearly limit of 14 days. I highly recommend this park if you can get a spot in summertime. Reservations are usually made a year in advance.
ScoutWe 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!
