Massachusetts is a beautiful New England state providing plenty of opportunities for exploration. Following are Massachusetts RV lodgings where you can stay on your trip.

Massachusetts RV Lodgings

New England is a great area of the United States for a vacation any time of year. If you enjoy winter sports such as skiing or summer events like going to the beach and outdoor activities, there is definitely a spot waiting for you in New England. Among the states here, Massachusetts is perhaps the best example of the region as a whole. Filled with historical sights and beautiful shorelines (such as those on Cape Cod) this state is a very popular family destination. Choosing to stay at any of the Massachusetts RV lodgings can make your trip even more enjoyable.

One very popular section of Massachusetts is Cape Cod. Long known as a resort area for people from Boston as well as other large cities in the nearby states, this peninsula sees thousands of visitors each year. Its unique semicircular shape and the fact that it borders both Cape Cod Bay and the Atlantic Ocean make Cape Cod a good place to see beautiful lighthouses and other types of New England architecture, as well as a great starting point for going whale watching in the area.

A look at the Massachusetts RV lodgings in the Cape Cod area reveals a lot of choices. One of these lodgings is the Bay View Lodgings in Bourne, Massachusetts. This small town is located just near the Cape Cod Canal, and is a short one hour ride from either Boston or Providence, Rhode Island. Built high up in the wooded area around the Canal, this lodging offers access to beautiful views as well as beaches that offer marinas, fishing in either the Cape Cod Canal or Bay and many other water activities.

The Bay View Lodgings offer RV campers 400 back in or pull through sites, each with water, electric, sewer and cable hookup. There are also picnic benches and a fireplace situated at every site. Also located on the Bay View property are laundry facilities, a camping/convenience store, restrooms with hot showers and ice and wood available for purchase. During the summer months (and on weekends in the off season), an outdoor eatery is set up at the lodgings offering fried and grilled foods - with an ice cream parlor also available for desserts and snacks. There are three swimming pools available for your use in season, as well as camp-led activities for visitors of all ages.

Massachusetts RV lodgings make staying in this state fun and comfortable. With the many choices out there, your biggest problem may be choosing which area of the state to camp in.

Cape Cod offers many great campgrounds for those that seek this less expensive and outdoorsy way of vacationing. Our family camped on the Cape at Peters Pond Park in Sandwich most summers, and I can truly say that camping there was one of the highlights of my childhood. To this day, Cape Cod is my favorite place on earth for a vacation.

There are over 20 campgrounds on the Cape, some with over 450 campsites, some with less than 80. And believe me - this is not your father's camping! Campgrounds now have many more options than just tent or "pop-up" sites. Many can accommodate RVs and trailers of up to 32 feet, and most have cabins or cottages, modern restrooms and even cable television hook-ups. Some even have RVs or trailers up to 40 feet on site for rent. Playgrounds and children's programs abound, as do baseball fields, rec halls, on site markets, and other amenities. Most campgrounds are also situated close to, or near the water - a great convenience for swimming and boating activities. From tennis courts to musical entertainment to bicycle rentals to internet cyber booths - Cape Cod campgrounds offer activities that were rare years ago.

Some campgrounds even cater to the different desires of today's campers by offering separate sections for couples seeking a quieter setting, group campers such as scouts or churches, RVs/trailers-only, as well as traditional family camping sites. Most sites for RVs and large "pull-through" trailers are in separate sections from tents, small trailers or cabins. Often cabins and cottages are grouped together as well. A few campgrounds allow pets, but some restrict this to off-season periods, and most allow only 1 pet per site. Make sure to bring your pet's rabies certificate, as most campgrounds require them now. We highly recommend that you check the rules and limitations thoroughly when you make reservations.

The cost for camping on Cape Cod, although not as expensive as hotels, can still add up. Most rates include only 2 adults. Even your own children often add to the daily cost - and - pets, extra vehicles, boats and visitors almost always require extra daily fees. Our research showed in-season rates varying from $33 to $46 per night for a standard tent site with water and electric service - and again - almost always this was for 2 adults only. Off-season rates varied from $18 to $34 a night for the same tent site with water and electric for 2 adults. Rate charts on the websites can be a little confusing, so be sure you get a clear explanation of your exact rates before you make your reservations.

A lot has changed about camping since my childhood days on Cape Cod, but a lot of it is still the same. You will still find s'mores around a camp fire, pick-up baseball games, trips to the camp store for a treat, hikes and long walks, kids climbing trees, the best tasting breakfast ever around a picnic table, and loads of memories that will last a lifetime.

Linda Behrle has spent a lot of time vacationing on Cape Cod beginning in childhood. It is still her favorite place on earth to vacation. For more information about Cape Cod camping, visit her website www.everythingcapecod.net for all your vacation planning needs.
