Additional CG site information.
- $45.00 per night for a Water & Electric site anywhere that a site is available.
- You do not need to reserve a CG site for all 4 nights. Just the nights you are showing up.
- There is a $45.00 deposit to make a reservation.
- Any cancellation 7 days prior to arrival, you will not get your deposit back.
I am sorry I have to do this but I had too many no-shows and cancellations last year and once I give the campground the number of sites I need, I am committed to paying for at least 1 night. If you wish a specific CG site, please indicate the site number.
If it’s available, I will confirm it with you.
Reservations:
You may send your deposit or the full amount any time after April 1, 2023.
The reason for no reservations in Jan/Feb/March 2023 is the simple fact I am in Florida and your check will just sit on my desk till I get home.

Additional information on the optional day trip into Boston.
The Campground is approximately 2 miles from the commuter rail station in Salem MA.
You can purchase your tickets directly from the conductor as there is no ticket sales office at this stop. The commuter rail train stops at North Station in Boston. That is directly under the Boston Garden. You are looking at approximately a 45 minuet trip one way.
In the afternoon, you will get back on the same train and get off at the Salem Stop.
Some will be there to pick you up and bring you back to the Campground.
The trolley cost will be for one trip TO the Salem commuter rail stop in the morning.
The trolley cost will for one trip BACK to the Campground in the afternoon.
I will have my car if you decide to stay late in Boston and miss the scheduled trolley pick up in the afternoon.
