In summers past we have picked one RV park in the Boston area and stayed there for the entire season. This has many advantages, most notably the ability to form friendships and get some significant discounts. But this year the season will be shorter as we will be leaving New England on August 1 to head out to Wisconsin for my 50th high school reunion. Also, as a result all of my genealogical research over the past year, I am keenly interested in visiting gravesites of both my ancestors and Jett’s. These two factors led to the decision to split our time among a number of campground in the three months we will be in New England. We have selected 5 campgrounds in MA and 1 each in NH and ME. We have dubbed this bit of traveling – and it is not much, travel-wise – the “New England Tour” or simply NET.
We will arrive in New England on May 5. Our initial destination will be Plymouth, MA. The full itinerary is:
- Pinewood Lodge Campground, Plymouth, MA – 24 nights.
- Normandy Farms Campground, Foxboro, MA – 11 nights.
- Beach Rose RV Park, Salisbury, MA – 14 nights.
- Sea-Vu West, Wells, ME – 7 nights.
- Saddleback Campground, Northwood, NH – 9 nights.
- Minuteman Campground, Littleton, MA – 9 nights.
- Pine Acres Family Campground, Oakham, MA – 14 nights.
We have stayed at Normandy Farms, Saddleback, Minuteman and Pine Acres previously and look forward to return visits. Pinewood Lodge, Beach Rose and Sea-Vu West will be new and we have high hopes.
The tour will consist of 6 hops, the longest being just 82 miles. Just over 300 miles total. The roads will be mostly interstate freeways or local roads that we have traveled before. the most adventurous hop will be from Sea-Vu West to Saddleback – that will traverse some local roads the we have not seen before. But not long and not difficult.
Not a big trip, but the variety of places should make for an interesting summer.
