    Buttermilk Bay

    Buttermilk Bay

    Delightful little gem between Bourne and Wareham. Clean, shallow water, channel is only 10' deep at…read moremean high tide so no deep draught vessels. Cohasset Narrows bridge is fixed and low, so no masted vessels. Nice for swimming, shellfishing, shore fishing (striper/schoolies), kayaking,jestskiing,SUP and just messing about. Fresh water Red Brook empties into this bay after flowing some 5 miles from White Island Pond in Plymouth. This brook and surroundings are owned by the Trustees of Reservations and is home to the only remaining Sea Run Brook Trout spawning areas in the Northeast. Public beaches at Electric Ave in Bourne (resident permit required) and at Lyman Reserve in Bourne. No public beaches on Wareham side. Pretty muddy at low tide so plan swimming accordingly. My favorite place to swim is the channel between Buttermilk and Little Buttermilk (Gibbs Narrows). Crystal clear and the current will give you a Nantucket sleigh ride when tide is changing.

    fresh water stream that flows into Buttermilk bay is one of few reaming areas where trout come from…read morethe sea to fresh water. Came out from Cambridge today looking to get some nature and perhaps see some wildlife. Took the shore path toward the bay and upon turning the corner towards the bay there was a women spread eagle while her male companion head was blissfully between her legs. She had a fair away gaze towards the cloud filled sky with a satisfied smile across her face.....a little too much wildlife for me.....

    We recently stayed at Myles Standish State Forest on site J26 in the Barretts Pond loop, and…read moreunfortunately, it wasn't quite what we expected. The site itself is situated at the top of a steep hill, which is not ideal if you have a car that sits low to the ground, our vehicle bottomed out trying to park, making it basically unusable for us in that spot. To make matters worse, the path to the site doubles as an access point to another campsite. So even if you could manage to park there, chances are high that your neighbors will end up parking in that same pathway, making it extremely difficult--if not impossible--for you to get to your site conveniently. It definitely felt like the layout of this area wasn't thought through for ease of access. The bathrooms in this loop left a lot to be desired. During our stay, they were extremely dirty and, at one point, there were a few hours without water or electricity. That said, there were a few positives. The small swimming pond in this section of the campground was actually quite charming. It's private to those staying at the loop, which makes it feel peaceful and far less crowded compared to other parts of the forest that have public access. It was nice to be able to relax there without the usual campground chaos. Overall, the serenity of the area was nice, but the site setup, parking issues, and bathroom conditions really took away from the experience. If you're considering this loop, especially site J26, I'd recommend looking into alternative spots within the forest that might be easier to access and are better maintained. I've been coming here for years and have had many experiences both good and bad. Check-in can take awhile, and lines can get long which is brutal in the heat, then your met with some people at the counters with attitudes that leave more to be desired. I'm sure there are better places to camp, but it is a staple.

    Wonderful place for dry camping. Sites do not have electric but generators are allowed. There are…read morewater spigots every few sites and accessible bathrooms with warm showers. The camping sites are deep in the forest, in fact it's bout 5 miles from the entrance to camping sites. Roads are paved and my own problem is having to constantly contend with bicyclists. (Read up on MA state law regarding bicyclists -- they have more right of way than I thought they did!) Be cautious of Masac. I saw the signs and didn't know what it was until I stumbled across the building one day. Yes, there is a prison facility in these woods!! Maybe that's why they have state park rangers at each camping "gate", and I fully appreciate that!
