Doug,

Here are some suggestions....avoid Knight & Look Campground in Rochester,
MA...tons of "druggies" and other problems. Bourne Scenic Campground and
Bayside Campground are ok...large and sometimes crowded. Peter's Pond
Campground in Sandwich is a nice one. Horton's in Truro at the tip of the
cape is good if you want to be near P-town. We've stayed at Pinewood Lodge
near Plymouth a couple of times, and its nice. The former Plymouth Rock KOA
is now an Outdoor World-Gateway to the Cape campground. Stayed there
once..they are campground time-share places and try to sell you a
spot....wasn't much fun.

If you are going to stay on the South Coast, perhaps visit the old whaling
city of New Bedford, you might want to try Horseneck Beach State
Campground. Wonderful beach with lots of rolling surf...

More info? E-mail me.
