    That is a nice split between Fourth of July madness and August "family" vacations

    Why don't we ask for input from now on from anyone that WON'T work for....?

    Get your meat coolers and bacon monstrosities ready! July 20-23 sounds good. We will all have to book our sites Early the day we are allowed to book the site six months in advance. Assuming everybody loved the water sites. We should know what number everybody is going for prior to reserving to ease the madness.
    What will that day be? I don’t have the capacity to figure that out right now?




    Campers,

    We hope that you are as excited as we are for the upcoming camping season! Recently, the 2018 dates for booking sites at beautiful Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) campgrounds were finalized, and ReserveAmerica has now completed programming for the 2018 camping season.

    Beginning Tuesday, December 12 at 9:00 AM, camping reservations can be made by calling 877-422-6762 or visiting www.reserveamerica.com. As you may know, reservations can be made from six months to one day in advance of your arrival date.

    Below you will find the 2018 start and end dates for the main camping season. Thank you once again for camping with us, and we look forward to seeing you in 2018!

    Sincerely,

    Anita Wysocki and Jennifer Brunelle
    DCR Camping Program

    May I suggest these sites? The site Jerry’s meat locker thingamajig was on was right next to that other large party. We were on 67 and it would make a great communal site. Huge, private, and right on the water. I will reserve that one again. The ones next to us were great too except for the one across from us- I circled some possible sites.

    Heads up.
    This Saturday (1/20/18) we can make reservations for Friday July 20, 2018 according to Reserve America.
    Not sure if we have to wait until Sunday 1/21 to be able to book a 2nd night? Guess we'll see on Saturday.

    I see there is no confirmed consensus about specifically which sites, but I thought the group site (77) from last year, and sites to either side, is a good starting point. The adjacent site (75) had loads of trees and a ton of space, although another group was using this site when we were there. I was thinking of reserving 75 just so we'd have a site that could accommodate several hangers. Then we could get 77, 79, 81, 83 to capture that "block" of sites we had discussed.

    The other option mentioned was sites down the road in the 60's. I was next to Megan (67) on site 65 last year, and although it was a large site with several trees, there were only 3 usable pairs. It would definitely have space for a couple of stands, in addition to the 3 hanging spots. Maybe the other nearby sites had more available trees? So this would be sites 61-67. A little longer walk to the bathrooms - good or bad depending on your POV, I suppose.

    If you want to check out the site pics...

    Just thought we should revisit the discussion if we need to start reserving this weekend.
    Cheers.

    The ones up toward 81/83 have fewer "pairs" than the lower ones.
    I'd still suggest 71-79...

    Hi Guys, thanks for getting this rolling. I can't reserve a site as I can't guarantee I have that time off, I don't know my weekend rotation yet. But if I can go will someone let me and my hubby crash at their site? Looking forward to this hang as I have missed it the last few years and would love to go!

    I will reserve 2 sites and folks can split the cost if that’s ok?
    We’ll reserve 77 and 79
    Ted and Tollermama, you’re welcome with us.
