I camp nearly every year at this campground, first in tents and now with a popup camper. The sites are impeccable, the campground hosts are warm and wonderful, and the rest rooms and showers are always very clean.
My only 'complaint' would be the earlier time the gates get locked, 9PM instead of 10PM in the previous years. Since I was raised in the area and come to visit friends and family mostly in Worcester the earlier time can be a detriment. I know you can park outside the gates and walk in but since I usually camp alone walking in the dark to my campsite is not really an option.
That said- there's also a benefit to the 9PM close time. The park is quiet and there's rarely vehicle traffic past that time. I would however prefer a return to the 10PM time.

I have been camping at this campground for 50years. I love the fact that there is an accessible site as I use a wheelchair. But this is not always available and there is only 1 site.

We absolutely love this little campground. We like the rustic feel and quietness of some state campgrounds, but at this stage of life want some amenities. Therefore, we use the sites with hookups. There if a 10 min drive to a state park for swimming. All in all, a perfect slice of heaven.
