Circle CG Farm Campground

Massachusetts is a veritable playground for outdoor adventure, and while the Berkshires in the western part of the state get all the press when it comes to great hiking, there’s no need to drive so far with your RV rental; there are plenty of exciting trails close to Circle CG Farm Campground. The Midstate Trail, which runs up the middle of Massachusetts from the border with Rhode Island to New Hampshire, is only half an hour's drive away. There are dozens of trailheads to start on, but one of the most scenic sections is through the Douglas State Forest at its southern end. For a forest stroll closer to the campground, try Franklin State Forest a couple of miles to the west of Bellingham. The nearly 900-acre green space is quite popular with mountain bikers, as the Southern New England Trunkline Trailhead sits on the south side of the park.

If you’re hoping to get out on the water when you book an RV in Norfolk County, the closest place to do it is at Hopkinton State Park. Kayak and stand-up paddleboard rentals are available by the hour or for the whole day, and there are excellent picnicking facilities all around the park’s centerpiece lake.

Thanks to the extensive railway network that connected Massachusetts and Rhode Island before the invention of the automobile, there are dozens of great rail trails that have been re-purposed for cyclists and pedestrians. The Blackstone River Trail is one of the most extensive, stretching for nearly 17 miles from Woonsocket, Rhode Island all the way to Pawtucket, and bike rentals are available in Bellingham.

It’s northern Rhode Island’s cultural capital with several performing arts centers, museums, and antique shops to explore. The Museum of Work and Culture is a must-see attraction, with exhibits focused on the state’s working class and the textile mills that popped up along the Blackstone River during the Industrial Revolution.
