GuideWe stayed at site 81, it was near the entrance and right on the pond! The sites were spacious, so it was easy to maneuver our 21 ft travel trailer. The camp bathrooms were across from our site, they weren’t terrible but could use a bit of cleaning!
ScoutIt was a hot one! The pool was crowded but that’s to be expected when it was 96 for three days. Clean, fun, and friendly. My son said it was the best campground so far.
GuideFort Getty campground was in an incredible location to Jamestown and with many things to do in the park itself. The tent sites are open field style and some groups can get big so be ready for that. We had tent site 6 and it was tucked back in its own little area which was an awesome surprise. Overall we had a quick stay and everyone we encountered was friendly, bathrooms are older but a short walk from tent area. The access the Jamestown and the surrounding areas and views is what makes this place totally worth it!
TravelerDue to the heat wave, I opted not to spend the night, but we did roll through and check out the area. First thing we noticed is how close and open the sites were, with a few exceptions. I attached photos of the more secluded sites I plan to choose next time. Site 49 is what I had reserved and it was large and partially secluded. The bathroom buildings are boarded up across the campground and state park with port o potties in front. I was not eager to check those out… a bucket started feeling like the safer option lol It was quiet but on the more secluded sites, there was ample road noise and you could see the road from some sites. I didn’t get a chance to look for the walkway to the park and river, but I plan to next time. The state park and river nearby was beautiful and quiet and serene with smattering Fourth of July picnics. Overall, I plan to return here when the weather is more cooperative and my car camper is better equipped :)
ScoutLong review from a long-term camper, but if you’re considering staying here, it’s worth the read so you know what you’re paying for. My husband and I have stayed here for the past three years, and this year has been, without question, the worst experience we’ve had. We prepaid for a 6-month stay, expecting a quiet, well-managed campground. Instead, we’ve dealt with inconsistency, poor communication, and management that seems focused on the wrong priorities. Before the campground was even fully open, we came to prepare our camper because there were already other campers on the property. While we were there, a woman repeatedly followed us around and watched us before finally approaching us. Rather than treating us like returning guests who have stayed here for years, we were made to feel like we didn’t belong and were questioned as if we were trespassing or trying to live here for free. Ironically, people who don’t even pay to stay here regularly park on the property to use the lake without anyone questioning them. Apparently, paying customers receive more scrutiny than people who aren’t customers at all. Because of that interaction, we were told we couldn’t return for weeks. When we were finally allowed back, our electricity hadn’t even been turned on, and we had to wait while no one seemed particularly concerned about getting it working. Then, completely out of the blue, we were told we had a past-due balance that had supposedly existed all along. At no point were we ever notified. No phone call. No email. No letter. No conversation. Yet somehow we were expected to fix a problem we didn’t even know existed. Meanwhile, the issues that actually affect paying guests continue to be ignored. On weekends and almost every holiday, large groups takes over the campground with 20+ tents, blasting music well into the night and early morning with absolutely no respect for the people who actually pay to stay here. They spread out wherever they want, take over common areas, and even park in front of occupied campsites to the point that we’ve had trouble getting into our own site. Even worse, people were plugging into our electrical service without permission, causing our camper to repeatedly short circuit. We eventually had to install a lock on our own electrical box because management did nothing to stop it after it was brought to their attention. That’s what makes this so frustrating. Management seems incredibly quick to police long-term residents over minor issues, yet has no problem looking the other way while other people take over the campground, block campsites, disturb everyone around them, use utilities they aren’t paying for, damage property, and ignore every basic campground rule. The former management understood that people who spend thousands of dollars to stay here deserve a safe, enjoyable, and well-managed campground. Rules were enforced. Problems were addressed. Paying guests mattered. Now it feels like the people causing the problems face no consequences, while the people paying to be here are the ones expected to tolerate them. I also wouldn’t recommend this campground for families. The“playground” looks like it hasn’t been properly maintained in a very long time and honestly looks like it could earn a child a tetanus shot instead of a fun afternoon. The basketball hoop has been broken, and the laundry area is tucked behind some of the dirtiest bathrooms on the property, surrounded by overgrown grass. None of it reflects the kind of campground this used to be. It’s disappointing because this campground had so much potential and used to be a place we genuinely enjoyed returning to every year. Unfortunately, poor management and a complete lack of consistency have changed that. If you are looking for a campground, there are way better options in the surrounding area with better amenities and better people.
ScoutI have 4 kids, 8 and under and they had an absolute blast. We will definitely be back.
TravelerPublished rules are can only be here for 30 days with a three week extension possible. The fact is at least half of the spaces are occupied by full time residents with one resident stating she has been here for two years. The airfield noise is excessive during the day. The airfield closes at 11 PM so at least it is not all night long. We booked a pull through and they wanted to put us in a small back in site with shared utilities. I put my foot down and was given a pull through. On a positive note, the bath house is clean and the laundry room is not over priced
TravelerWhen we arrived at our site we were instantly greeted with an angry resident. He started shooing us away as we were trying to park our camper at our site. He needed to back out and leave but we had only been there no more than 3 minutes before he popped up angrily. There are a lot of long term campers there. Very very unkept campers. Broken down, damaged, some look unlivable. Some may not like the dozens of cats everywhere, but I did. It’s fun to spot a new cat roaming around the campground. The pool is nice and clean. The playground is cute. The Arcade is not worth going to. A lot of the games were broken or empty. Bikes are NOT allowed. My 8 year old son was riding his bike and we were told he couldn’t do that at this campground. The pond/beach area is beautiful. You can try fishing in it. We didn’t catch anything. I definitely don’t suggest swimming in it. It’s not clean enough for that. Camp “store” is very minimal in what they have. Mostly little candy and some minor essentials. There is also a little restaurant attached to the camp store. I like that the sites were grass and not dirt. Or site did not have sewer. We had to go to the dump station to empty black water.
LegendWe stayed here a number of years ago when it was Milleville Ponds Campground and what an improvement! The park is really clean, well mowed, well-packed gravel roads and camping pads. No problem for big-rigs. There are some seasonals but their sites were tidy. About half the campsites are in the woods and half in the open. There are some deluxe sites with paved patios and nicer fire pits but they are really close together and no shade. We really liked our site (#400) which was gravel, long and level. (We would choose 401 if we came back.) The patio had nice grass which our dog loved. The utilities were well-placed and the electric legs were good at 124 volts. I called to see if there was cable tv because there was a connection on our post and was told that some sites had cable. But, when I hooked it up, we didn’t get any channels; however, we got about 60 over-the-air tv channels. Great wifi. Not much for amenities, just a pavilion and playground. There is a public dog park just outside the park that is really big and you can walk a ¼ mile to a hiking trail. There are three airstreams and a 3-bedroom house for rent. The bath house is centrally located. Unfortunately, they are not super close to the tent sites and there is no path through campsites so you either have to walk around or cut through someone’s site. It took us anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes to get downtown (depending on traffic). There are few restaurants nearby and a grocery less than ten minutes away. Overall, we liked how clean and well-kept the park was and enjoyed our site. We stayed eight nights with the average nightly cost at $81and would come back if in the area.
The area surrounding Wrentham, Massachusetts features mostly private campgrounds situated in eastern Massachusetts' mixed forest terrain at elevations between 200-350 feet. Seasonal temperature swings are substantial, with winter lows averaging 16°F and summer highs reaching 82°F.

Explore hiking trails: Wompatuck State Park Campground offers numerous marked paths for day excursions. "There are so many cool things to do just a short drive away. The nearby town of Ayer is right out of a Norman Rockwell painting," notes a camper at Spacious Skies Minute Man. For families seeking nature trails, another visitor adds, "We found a large pond and an underground bunker to venture into" at Wompatuck.
Visit historic sites: The region provides access to Revolutionary War landmarks. "Concord is only 30 minute drive away with two full days of revolutionary historic sites, and famous people home tours such as Louisa May Alcott," reports a camper at Spacious Skies Minute Man. History buffs can also explore Plymouth Rock and Mayflower ship replicas, as noted by a visitor at Circle Campground Farm: "We did Boston (caught the train), Salem, mystic seaport, Sturbridge village, plymouth rock, the Mayflower ship, and plymouth plantation spending no more than 1hr and 20 min at the most in the car!!!"
Water recreation: Several campgrounds feature swimming areas and fishing ponds. The pond at Ponkapoag Camp is "a wonderful place for kayaking and canoeing. There are several rocky boulders poking out of the water that make fun spots to discover." Fishing opportunities abound at multiple locations, with one visitor noting, "Water was nice and fish were biting. Can't wait to come back."
Natural seclusion close to urban areas: Campers appreciate wilderness experiences within reach of Boston. "Feels like Vermont yet 20 minutes from Downtown Boston," says one Ponkapoag Camp visitor, while another notes it provides "some natural peace and quiet close to the city." This contrasts with larger resorts, offering alternatives for those seeking more isolation.
Affordable alternatives: State parks offer lower-cost options compared to resort-style campgrounds. A George Washington State Campground visitor mentioned, "Sites were well spaced and provided some privacy depending on your site choice." Another camper noted the park has "big open sites, really quiet, great place to relax and hike," making it a budget-friendly option for those avoiding higher-priced amenities.
Proximity to entertainment venues: Many campers select sites based on nearby attractions. "This place is pretty awesome if you're looking to see a show at the nearby Comcast center. It's cheap, quiet, and affordable and very close (maybe ten mins or less to the venue)," reports a Canoe River Campground visitor. This accessibility to entertainment venues adds convenience for travelers attending specific events.
Site quality varies significantly: Even within the same campground, site conditions differ considerably. "Sites are more secluded than other camp grounds but can be a bit small," notes one Wompatuck State Park visitor. Another mentions, "I was disappointed with our assigned spot. Despite seeing several other sites that could have accommodated our rig size, K05 was the only option available when booking online."
Reservation requirements: Many campgrounds require advance planning, especially for weekends. "Very easy to get into Boston by train. Level sites, quiet, and very clean restrooms make this a perfect spot for touring historic Boston, Concord, & Lexington," a camper at Spacious Skies Minute Man recommends, highlighting why popular sites book quickly.
Weather considerations: The region experiences variable conditions requiring preparation. "We were there Memorial Day weekend, and needed the stove when it dipped to 40 degrees," reports a Ponkapoag Camp visitor. Spring and fall camping particularly requires layered clothing and adequate heating options as temperatures can drop significantly overnight.
Swimming options: Different campgrounds offer various water features. "The swimming area has a 'icky bottom' (kid term :))" notes a camper at Holiday Acres, while another reports that at Boston/Cape Cod KOA, "They had a big store and plenty of supplies and souvenirs, from sweatshirts to stickers. As we pulled around the office we saw all kinds of activities for kids. Bouncy 'pillow', pool, bounce pad, sluice, miniature golf, and a playground."
Kid-friendly activities: Structured recreation keeps children engaged during longer stays. "Kids and adults alike love it. What's not to love. It's the kind of place summer camping trip memories are made of. 4 pools, fishing pond, lodge, trivia night, soccer, baseball, softball and frisbee golf and so much more," shares a Normandy Farms visitor, highlighting organized options beyond standard playground equipment.
Noise levels: Family-oriented sites can be livelier, especially during weekends. "The campground was very busy with families events activities, etc. If you prefer a noisy fun experience and a more social experience with your very close neighbors, this is the spot for you," explains a Canoe River Campground visitor, helping families set appropriate expectations about ambient noise.
Access challenges: Some campgrounds have navigation difficulties for larger rigs. "Roads are a little narrow which made backing in a little challenging. I had to use other sites to complete the back-in process," shares a Circle Campground Farm visitor. RVers with larger vehicles should call ahead to confirm site accessibility.
Utility placement: Position of hookups can create connection issues. One camper at Holiday Acres reported, "The way they have the power and water arrangement, we had to run 50ft of hose and 30 amp cord." Having extension cords and additional hose lengths helps address these common challenges at older campgrounds.
Electric reliability: Power quality varies between campgrounds. "Roads are a little interesting to navigate, and definitely aren't the straight lines on their map! Good fire pit and nice facilities," notes a camper about Spacious Skies Minute Man. Using surge protectors helps safeguard equipment when connecting to older electrical systems at established campgrounds.
