There is Wells State Park in Sturbridge MA (100? miles from Boston)- - Junction of Mass Pike and I-84 - - only a few miles off the Mass Pike. I have never stayed there. You can make reservations. There is also a private campground in the area.
I do not know of any camping closer to Boston.
Old Sturbridge Village is a Tourist site -- and thus some camping is withing 20 miles (1800's life style) you may wish to check out.
The Public House is a good place to eat.
All are close to the Mass Pike.
Please give me enough troubles, uncertainty, problems, obstacles and STRESS so that I do not become arrogant, proud, and smug in my own abilities, and enough blessings and good times that I realize that someone else is in charge of my life.Travel Photos
