From Monson you need to drive through Springfield, so avoid rush hours. From Sodom Mountain you'll not hit any traffic. Monson got hit pretty bad with a tornado a few years back, some of the CG's got pretty much stripped bare, don't know about Sunset View, ChooChoo should know. Another to look at is Prospect Mountain, it's up in the hills so you'll do some climbing, nice area though. There is also Southwick Acres but I've never heard of anyone staying there, looks like all seasonals from the road.
Southwick is closest at 20-25 min, then Sodom Mt at 25-30 min, the other 2 are about the same but in different directions roughly 40 min.
I don't camp that close to home so you'll have to get reviews from others.
Sad to hear about the tornadoes. I will look into all the mentioned cg's. Thanks.
