The automated gate reads your car tag and knows to open for guests w/o needing a code or card to enter. This RV park does offer a small tent area with a bath house close by, although the tent site was empty at the time of our visit. It does appear each site offers a picnic table, as do the RV sites. The RV sites are all 'back in' style, no 'pull thru' sites. There is just enough space between rigs to park your 450. The rig backed up to tree trunks, providing some shade to the site, while not allowing this toy hauler to open it's back deck. There is a small space behind the truck for the picnic table and a few folding chairs. The roads here are dirt throughout, including the sites and on this dry summer day a good bit of dust was kicked up every time a vehicle drove by. My hosts mentioned the 5mph speed limit is easily kept because the rutted roads keep you moving slow. There is a small pool to enjoy with family that is entirely enclosed in a high chain link fence. A bath house is located right next to the pool, outside the fenced area. There is also a large, covered pavillion by the office with picnic tables. My hosts tell me the park offers family fun events on weekends in this area. We walked the grounds and see they offer seasonal spots grouped together in a shady area off to one side of the park. Folks have really set up outdoor living spaces in this area. We even saw a shed on one site. There are a good amount of trees at the edges of the short term RV area offering partial shade so many of the sites. A few are full sun. The park is seasonal. Facilities are well maintained (pool, bath house, picnic pavillion). Dumpsters are available for guest use across from the office. My SO looked at renting a cabin here to spend more time visiting with our hosts. The cabins he saw on their website do not offer bathrooms en suite which for him was a non-starter. Also, according to him, you send an email for pricing? I didn't look. Hope this info helps. Happy adventuring.

Playground is small, bring activities, toys etc. Kids get bored fast. Small camp store ( early in the season so they will stock) I've enjoyed my stay as I like a campground that is not so busy.

Prices went so high and now resort fees are being charged, I understand prices go up but I also believe improvements and upgrades are needed to show the increase, nothing has been done, other than pushing away seasonal and yearly clients. Been camping here since my kids were little about 15 yrs, started cabin then tent then pop up and TT now with grandkids. Loved this place unless things improve and the manager learns to interact with clients we might come back. Many other issues with a "sec guard" that is seasonal. We miss Greg.

It had water and electric and great views of the woods, a little creek below and it offered the right amount of privacy. We really enjoyed our stay here. We stuck mostly to our site for the two nights we were here. There is a pool, it's small but decent on site although next to the busy road. There is a rec hall but doesn't have much to offer except for a Ping pong table, an old piano and some table and chairs. It's pretty outdated and run down as are the bathrooms although clean and plenty of hot water. The store on site in the office has a few things on the shelf but shouldn't rely on getting things there. There is a country store few miles down the road, Katie's which has everything, butcher shop, beer, wine, fresh baked pies and pretty much anything you can think of. The outhouse/ports potty up in the Maple Hill site area is very clean and was fine to use. CJ who runs the place and lives on site is great and is happy to help if you need something. Overall we loved the site we were on, there were some on Maple Hill that were wooded and secluded as well, H is halfway from office/pool to end so great location. If you are looking for a place to just hang out on your site, enjoy the woods and camping experience without running from activity to activity you find at other resorts and don't need a lot of frilly things then it's a good place for you.

State parks charge more for less. - Quiet setting - Wooded sites - All sites have water and some have water and electric - Clean bathrooms and showers (only 2 of each but in 2 evenings, I never had an issue. I was gone during the day and not sure what it's like in that timeframe. it's not a large campground and there are multiple RVs and I suspect they use their own facilities.) - You will receive a welcome bag at check-in with a site map to help you get to your site, the rules and regs, a guide to The Berkshires, a large garbage bag, and a pen. - The On-site laundry is in a small cabin-like building. It is clean and has a table, two chairs, and many books - On-site propane station - Large playground, an entertainment pavilion, a rec room (I didn't use them so not sure what's included) I will definitely stay again if/when I'm the area.

This was our first time up in the area. We spent the day at the "beach " area here. The views were…read moreabsolutely spectacular. In addition, the water was super clean and clear. As other reviewers wrote, the area is very no frills. My 2 complaints were 1) the bath House was not open so we used the port-a-johns. They looked like they had not been cleaned out in months. All 4 were vile. 2) there were no signs about rules of the lake. Our children were using tubes and a plastic kayak. After 3 hours of using them by the beach, we were then reprimanded for using these items in the swimming/ ropes off area. Just wish that there was a sign that informed us as to what was and not allowed. Overall, had a wonderful day.

Tolland was voted America's #1 Family Campground in 2009, and with their well-maintained and functional facility, it's easy to see why. Built on a small peninsula of land that juts into the largest recreational body of water in Massachusetts, Tolland boasts excellent swimming, fishing, hiking and boating opportunities, as well as some unique and cool campsites for campers of all ages and skill levels. We came out and reserved 4 sites for a camping-fishing-relaxing bachelor party weekend, and we were all pretty pleased with the results. The staff were friendly and helpful, and stayed out of our way. We were within easy walking distance of bathrooms and sinks for washing dishes, though the shower in our area was broken. I wasn't planning to shower anyway, though. Be warned that the area around Tolland State Forest is not very active. The town of East Otis sports just 1,200 year-round residents, and there are few nearby stores, all of which close around 9. There are, however, a couple of nice general stores, and a gas station that sells organic groceries. If you're inclined to head west on the Pike out of Boston, Tolland is a great spot for a weekend trip, whether you're looking to chill or to get out there and do stuff.
