best tent camping massachusetts image
jlb1016
I'm looking for a nice place to go tent camping with my boyfriend. We don't need a family camp grounds...just something fun for a couple in their mid-twenties.
I'd love to find a place near the Cape or Martha's Vineyard but anywhere nice in Mass would do...
We're looking for a place where we can swim, ride bikes, rent jet ski's or paddle boats, etc. Thanks!

I you are adventuresome, you can try Nickerson State Park in Brewster.
The adventure part is that as far as I know, they still operate on a first-come, first-served basis (you can't reserve a spot in advance), and people have been known to have to camp in the parking lot for a couple of days before a site became available.
Alternatively, Sweetwater Forrest (also in Brewster) is a family-oriented campground where you can reserve sites in advance.
Both places offer camping, with nearby freshwater ponds. You can swim or ride bikes (there are trails inside Nickerson Park, and the Cape Cod Rail Trail runs by both places). I don't think that power boats of any kind are allowed on the ponds. Its not far from either to one of the many beaches on the Cape - Brewster is on the bay side (the 'quiet' beaches), but its not far to the major ocean beaches.

Where can I tent camp for free in East Connecticut, Southeast Massachusetts, or West Rhode Island?

I am going to eastern Connecticut next week in an impromptu trip and a friend of mind are looking for the best place to tent camp in the area. We would prefer a backwoods setting with campfires allowed, and if it does cost something - minimal in price. Any help would be appreciated.
Answer
The Sundarbans is intersected by a complex network of tidal waterways, mudflats and small islands of salt-tolerant mangrove forests. The interconnected network of waterways makes almost every corner of the forest accessible by boat. The area is known for the eponymous Royal Bengal Tiger (Panthera tigris tigris), as well as numerous fauna including species of birds, spotted deer, crocodiles and snakes. The fertile soils of the delta have been subject to intensive human use for centuries, and the ecoregion has been mostly converted to intensive agriculture, with few enclaves of forest remaining.
