Camping on northern MA or southern NH beaches

[BlackX]

Any nice campgrounds in northern MA or sourthern NH that anyone would recommend for this time of year, particularly if there's good MDing beaches there. (Whether they have trees or not is also a question from my daughter.) Thinking of camping at the end of the week.

Come to think of it, any beach campgrounds that aren't too far would be cool so south shore, etc. would be options too.

To supplement this further, it wouldn't even have to be beach campsites. ANything that's nearby (whether in the park and allowed or outside the park could be interesting). For instance, the Mohawk Tr. campground is near that one abandoned mine town which could be really neat to explore--but I have no idea if we're allowed to access it.

Barton cove camp ground is a nice area along the river also. Not sure when they open up for the season. Hope this helps. Have a wonderful family trip!

I don't know, but there are some Mass folks that might. One person has a user name Berkshire? or Kiddrock33 may know.
Good luck in your adventures, let us know what you do.

The town for the Davis Mine: See http://freepages.history.rootsweb.com/~gtusa/usa/ma/davismine.htm

(Most state campgrounds have off-season access as well. Nicely deserted. Best time to go as far as I'm concerned!)
