I found out about this campground in the Massachusetts Camping Guide 2007, and I RV camped there in July and August 2007.

Describe your camping trip:

We are full-timers. Our site has 50 amp service, so we are parked along the perimeter of the park in a space that is a little short for a 40-foot coach. The site is dirt. The roads are paved with large gravel, which is noisy. If you walk daily for health, you will find the large gravel difficult to walk upon.
Pros: It has cable TV. The trees are nice. It is a convenient campsite for week-end campers, because it is convenient to the beach.

Cons: The laundry trailer is inconvenient and less than clean. Suspect, smelly liquid runs into the road at the pool area. The restrooms were uninviting and less than clean. The staff that we have been in contact with have been unfriendly and unprofessional. We needed to recieve forwarded mail via FedEx, and the staff was less than cooperative turning away our FedEx, because they didn't have us registered, althought we are staying a month and prepaid by check, in full, months previously. A great inconvenience for us.
Nearby attractions: Ocean, beaches and related activities. Boston.

"Terrible Place. Very rude staff. Bathrooms are gross. Pool opens at 12. We weren't allowed to do anything. We had a camping trip from hell. We were 16 people in several lots and none of us had fun. We will never ever go back there again. NEVERRRR"
