Lorraine Campground at Harold Parker State Forest is one of the best camping locations in Mass.,…read moreespecially if you want to be in the woods and yet be close to civilization. The ~4000 acre forest has a dedicated entrance to the campground with several rangers assigned to it. The sites can be extremely spacious and isolated or be smaller and more social. It really is your choice. Safe swimming, fishing, bike riding, and hiking are abundant. The educational programs are posted, including weekly hikes, bike rides, and fishing lessons (they provide everything for novices). They even have a bonfire on Sat. nights during the camping season. The bathrooms are cleaned daily and are typically in excellent condition, including free showers and hot water. A donation is requested for the mandatory kiln-dried firewood ($5/bundle or $10/3 bundles). All sites have potable water. No sites have electricity. Alcohol is prohibited (and this is posted prominently). People who get caught drinking (typically because they are obnoxious) are asked to leave immediately. The state police barracks is just down the road, so help is nearby if others get rowdy. It is amazing to really be in the woods so close to Boston. Booking a site in advance online is highly recommended; walk-ins/drive-ups are permitted if there is space available. The fees are extremely reasonable ($12/night).

The summit is bare and rocky; a great place to relax and picnic after that long hike up. It's bare due to early settlers setting fire to it for pasture. It's approximately 400 millions years old and the first recorded hike was in 1725. There are multiple trails but the easiest is the white arrow trail, which is 2.3-miles. There is a parking lot. I've been on this trail a handful of times. It's a great hike and a super fun workout. I'd recommend good hiking shoes, a small backpack with water and snacks, sunscreen, sunglasses, bug spray, hat, and sweater. It does get windy at the summit and sometimes cold depending on the season. There's no water or restrooms so plan accordingly. It's definitely one of my favorite hikes and love going on it.

Meander to the trails of Andres Sculpture park, check out Pickity Place up the road ( Little Red Riding-hoods Grammy's home). All herbs & vegetables are grown on their farm land and are used in the restaurant. Then there's Parker's Pancake house to relish the sweet flavor of maple syrup, tapped & sugared on the property. Campground is close to MA border & not too far from some of the best farms in NH. Grocery shopping has never been so fresh.

Clean and well maintained roads, grass, nice people, BUT, no nothin, the internet was the worst, the cable only gave you 12 channels, of that 2 have no voice, 1 is for RV how to info, and 2 are the resorts. Yes you can stream but I had to use my phone hot spot several times. No pool, no tennis, no games, nothing. Oh they had a going away party for the old owners with fireworks. The next day they raised the price from $58.00 to $100.00. If you have a class A motor home be careful the road to the site needs tree trimming. I damaged my sky lite on a branch. Never again

I stayed at a Ponkapoag tent site last summer and had a wonderful time. The lake is calm and…read morebeautiful, and there are extensive trails for hiking. I can't speak to the cabin experience, but the camp as a whole is easy to access yet also allows you to feel like you've escaped the city. The tent sites are clean, spacious and have a fire pit and a picnic table. The one we were at (and I think all of them...) have private lake access, meaning you can step out of your tent and walk straight into the water for a cool morning swim or even to fish (if you have a permit!). There is also a sanctioned swim area for children and families where there are safety ropes and water toys for everyone's use. The whole experience was restful and easy to execute. I would absolutely go again.

There was a comment made during adult bingo, and someone said "lynch him lynch him" naturally as someone part of the bipoc community, I IMMEDIATELY felt uncomfortable. In addition, someone stated, "come as you are" & multiple other people said "this is a family campground." Yet, then proceeded to talk about...upside down pineapples, (look up the meaning) and other things. Again, this was an adult bingo, and I don't mind raunchy, but those were very discriminatory statements made. In addition, the "seasonal" campers, or possible group campers made us feel VERY uncomfortable at the pool.
