    Mohawk Park Campground & Restaurant

    Riverside Camping is the best!

    Mohawk campground and restaurant is my favorite spot to tent camp. Tent sites are located right on the Deerfield River... literally. It is so relaxing to wake up to the sound of the river and you can even head to a local park and tube down the river right back to your site! There is a pub and restaurant right on the premises.

    This Campground is located just down the street from Mohawk Trail and other sightseeing areas. 10 minutes down the road in Charlemont, MA, you can check out the Bridge of Flowers or the glacial potholes, they are really cool!

    October Mountain State Forest

    Peaceful and clean campground

    I tent camped here in night while exploring the fishing in Western Massachusetts.

    The campsite was peaceful and quiet and mostly tucked into the hillside.

    I did see the electrical station at the entrance but the sound didn’t reach where I was staying at site 33. To avoid that sound, I would suggest sites further up the road.

    The sites offered medium privacy. Site 33 was built into a slope in the hill, so it required walking up a short set of stairs, but the tent site was level.

    I didn’t explore the hiking trails but it seems very convenient that you could leave into the trails right from the campground.

    For any fly fishing folks, this campground is very close to the Housatonic (catch and release only!)

    Great family spot

    Mainly an RV ground, but they have about 10-15 great tent sites back beyond the RV area. There are water spigots near all the tent sites and they are nice and spread out. They have special events in a pavilion near the RVs including bingo

    Very well run, well spaced, drive-in sites suitable for tent camping as well as rvs. Spotless clean showers, wash areas, toilets. Excellent hiking of all classifications.

    Camping On The Battenkill

    Quiet private campground

    Quiet private campground along the battenkill river. Pretty clean bathrooms and showers but not the best. They have tent sites to full hook up sites. We were at site 33 which was nice and large but kinda on top of neighbors. The tent sites are nice and private near the river. They have laundry and a fenced in dog area that was much appreciated! Almost everyone camping had a dog or 2. We enjoyed this place but not a lot to do right off the campground in terms of hiking and biking trails

    Love this place!

    Small, mostly wooded, quiet campground. Facilities were spotless. The owners are so nice and welcoming. Great river for tubing or hanging out in the swimming hole.

    We there last month tent camping. Headed back with the camper next week!

    Family and Pet Friendly Campground

    We reserved a groupsite down by a stream and pond. It had a large common area surrounded by little pockets which made great tent sites. Beautiful site! Other campsites were far enough away that we felt like we had the place to ourselves.

    Family friendly/ rocky tent campsite’s

    Located in the Catskills. This is a family friendly there’s bathrooms/showers playground, pool, potable water and a outdoor pavilion. Located near hiking in the Catskills and 15 mins to Woodstock.

    The tent site are very richly and uneven, it was very hard to pitch a tent. When it rains theres a horrible smell across the campground.

    Had a great experience here, only one night at tent site. Site was a bit small, but overall place was very clean & taken care of. Booking online can be a bit confusing, I had to call for explanation. Overall I would recommend this place & would definitely go again.

    A quiet place

    We never been here. This campground is quite small. But quiet. It’s located off a dead end street . There is a lame right down the street. They have cabins, tent sites and everything sites. Have a small camp store. But downtown Pittsfield very close by. They have a pool. The owners were very professional and friendly . We will return..

    Convenient location

    The location was very good in allowing us to visit family in nearby village and go into nearby Manchester Center. Much more of an RV Park (name is on the money) than camping where we had our site. There were some more “remote” sites available near tent sites. Facilities were extremely well kept. Host was very helpful.

    Clean, pretty wooded sites near North Adams

    Beautiful sites with lots of trees, some on a lake for RV or Tent camping. Very helpful and friendly staff. Clean restrooms and showers. Preferred the natural wooded sites vs. the "trailer park" atmosphere where some year round campers lived. We selected this site because we wanted to visit Mass MOCA, which was nearby. We will definitely go there again.https://www.northadams-ma.gov/visit_our_city/historic_valley_campground/index.php

    I am motorcycle tent camping and found this place due to recommendations on dyrt. It lived up to all expectations. Friendly staff (Super helpful), Clean campground with an awesome old school vibe. Kids riding around on bikes, no one too loud, quiet times observed, everyone was super nice. Extra pts for this place on the cleanliness of the bathrooms and showers. One does not expect much but these were newer, very bright and super clean.

    Wifi is not free. 2.95/day with a 5M download limit.

    Great Spot!

    Big and spacious state park with many camping options. Has options for trailers, tent sites, platforms for tents and even some cabins. Small store in park that sells firewood and ice and a few other things you may need. Big lake with swimming and boating as well as many hiking trails. Bathrooms on site as well as showers. Some sites are close together, but there are a few a little more secluded and set back. Fire pits are great. Can’t wait to camp here again!

    Camping On The Battenkill

    Right along the Battenkill River

    Spring camping in southern VT. Trees had not fully leafed out yet when we visited, but I would think this would be a well shaded campground. We had our small camper on a tent site to be near the river. Some sites were right on the river, many larger RVs were closer to an open play area/field. There were hookups and dump station. Dog friendly. Fishing and "swimming" or tubing in season I should think.

    Small Campground on the Mountain

    Mohawk Park is a small campground that provides RV & tent sites, some along the Deerfield River. Sites are small but have electricity, water, picnic tables, & fire rings. Fishing, swimming, & tubing are allowed in the river...and you'll often see tubers floating by during the summer months!

    The park is perfectly located along the scenic Mohawk Trail (Rt 2) about half-way between North Adams and Greenfield... with a rustic restaurant on site, where they're serving up all your culinary and beverage needs.

    Beautiful and Well Maintained CG

    What a beautiful and well maintained CG! Great owners, facilities, and amenities. Gravel roads and relatively level gravel sites. There are W/E sites, dry sites, and many secluded tent sites. There are two lakes and another nearby. It is close to many hiking trails. We arrived an hour after the water was turned off due to freezing temps. We were allowed to fill the fresh tank from the lodge. We woke the next day to heavy fog. We would definitely stay here again - for longer than an overnight stay!

    Pretty close to perfect!

    Check in people were super nice and welcoming! Firewood was 3 large bundles for $20, or 4 for $20 in the fall. It’s a huge campground. Site 16 had a path to the river and was slightly tucked away. Sites 13 and 14 were cool spots too, I’d imagine in the summer you may have less privacy because it’s near the swimming area. Sites aren’t on top of each other but you can see your neighbors. Very dog friendly campground with a small off leash fenced in area at the entrance. Mostly an RV park with some tent camping. There’s also showers and laundry if you need that. Bathrooms were well lit and clean.

    Would stay again

    Taconic State Park has a beautiful campground. No electric hookups, but plenty of water and tent sites are available with very large platforms. Bathroom facilities are adequate. There are 2 dog friendly loops at the back. Overall, very quiet and friendly.

    2 lIfeguarded swimming areas — a kiddie pool and a deep area with floating dock to jump off of. Very short hike (or drive) to the beautiful Bash Bish falls

    If you are traveling with a dog, be sure to bring proof of rabies— they ask.

    Fees are $15 residents and $20 non residents plus processing fees.

    low key and beautiful fall getaway

    Keep in mind that this review is written after camping sept 8th (the week that school started for many) so it might not be relevant to peak camping season. We were pleasantly surprised with our weekend getaway to Clarksburg State Park. Nestled in the Berkshires and basically walking distance to Vermont, Clarksburg State Park provides a comfortable and semi-private tent site. Several spots (including ours 6) were very close to the rather large pond. While the trees obstruct the views, the site was waterfront and we were able to walk a few yards downhill to the waters edge where we launched our kayaks (there is a designated launching spot elsewhere). No electric and water hookups are provided but we were totally okay with that. Bear boxes were provided on each site so that you don’t have to keep stinky food or garbage in your car! Each site also had a fire pit with a grate so that you can cook right there on the fire. The bathrooms were some of the cleanest campground bathrooms and showers i’ve experienced (no bugs or webs also) and there was a dishwashing station on the side. The sites were large and well spaced but they had trees in between so that you felt privacy. The campground itself had plenty of sites, firewood for sale in the front and a pavilion and beach area on the day use side. There are plenty of trails you can hop on right outside your tent site and very little light pollution for optimal star gazing. We really enjoyed our time here and will definitely be back!

    Comfortable, clean, great for stargazing

    This campground was one of the best I’ve been to. They have both platform and dirt tent sites, all sites come equipped with fire pits. The bathrooms and showers are clean and the water stayed hot until the last weekend of the season (Oct 12-14, 2018) which was when we were there. The campground has a lake with boat rentals. Late night, stargazing over the lake is a great pastime, because the water is calm and the light pollution is low.

    The town of Hudson is also close by if you’re looking to get some of the comforts of a town while you’re out and about.
