Savor the moonlit, starry sky, trade stories around the campfire, then roll out your sleeping bag and have the best night's sleep since you were a kid.
Ahhh, camping. It's quite possibly the funnest way to experience nature, and positively the easiest way to escape from everyday life. And whether it's to the west, surrounded by beautiful fall foliage in the Hoosac Mountain Range, to the south in Massasoit State Park, or up north in Salisbury Beach State Reservation, where only the gentle sounds of the ocean can be heard, you'll find a variety of campsites to enjoy practically everywhere in the state.
