RV Parking Near Boston

I'm interested in RV parking near Boston. Are there any RV parking places at or near public transportation to Boston?

Susan's reply Yes, several RV campsites are located near Boston's commuter rail, which provides transportation into the city from suburbs and towns within about a 30-40 mile radius.

Here are three RV campsites with parking near commuter rail service to Boston to consider:

- Winter Park in Salem (Rockport Line of the Commuter Rail) - near the water, plus all of Salem's historic sites
- Harold Parker State Forest in North Andover (Haverhill Line) - gorgeous forested area north of Boston
- Boston Minuteman in Littletown (Fitchburg Line) - west of Boston not far from Concord and Lexington

Of these, Salem is the closest to Boston. To get more information and maps for the RV parks, a good source is http://www.rvparkreviews.com. For Boston commuter rail information, go to http://www.mbta.com, and click on the Commuter Rail links. You can use these sources to figure out which RV campsite best meets your needs.

You will need a way to get from the RV campsite to the commuter rail station, such as a bike or a taxi.

There is no RV parking within Boston itself because it's a city and even parking places for cars are at a premium. Also, subway station parking lots do not include RV parking spaces - again, because of space issues.

Hope this helps! Have a great time! If anyone else reading this has stayed in one of the parks and taken the train into Boston, please leave a comment with tips based on your experience!
