Really nice New England wooded CG. Everything is neat, clean and tidy. Bathrooms, with small showers, are spotless. I was impressed by the stacked stone fire pits. Someone with old-world skills spent a lot of time building them. Centrally located for visiting Plymouth, P'town and Maratha's Vineyard. My only negative comment is the one-location-only trash station which is almost out to the highway. Basic rate are reasonable, extra adult guests are at great expense. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Having visited a number of campgrounds that allow seasonal campers to "move in", lock, stock and barrel, husband and I expected this campground to be like all of the others. What a surprise when we found out we were wrong! Most of the seasonal campsites are so well kept and nicely decorated that it made me jealous that our stay was to be so short. I really feel that management should have a contest for the seasonal campers, encouraging other campers (whether transient or seasonal) to vote on "best kept" seasonal sites: there really were so many! The negatives about this campground were the low water pressure (we had to use our water pump the entire time); the laundry facilities; many of the games in the arcade area were broken and I lost money to a pinball machine that looked to be as old as me; and the fact that MacArthur Blvd., the main road that takes you in and out of the campground, is harrowing, to say the least! Okay, it would be unfair to deduct points for the latter as it's really not Bay View's fault that the road (more of a highway) is so scary. We stayed during what was considered the "off season" so, despite the fact that we sweltered in the 80-90 degree heat, we had to stare across our campsite at a pool that was not yet open for use. Bike riding was next to impossible at this c/g as it's very hilly and there are signs posted that forbid bikes on a few of the steeper roads, as well as some of the pathways. Sites were spacious and wooded and despite the fact that others posting here have said there's neither a "bay", nor a "view" at this c/g, we had a lovely view of the bay, way off in the distance. A pleasant surprise, given the fact that we'd heard that there were no views to be had! The staff here was polite and helpful but we were not happy that there was a man on a golf cart (whose job it must have been to tidy up the sites after campers check out), who started buzzing around our site hours before we were due to check out. At one point, as he sat looking at our site, I heard a loud voice on his walkie-talkie ask, "Well, does it look like they're packing up?" Talk about: "Here's your hat and coat....what's your hurry?!" We felt like we were being rushed out the door, despite the fact that guest checkout is posted to be 12 noon. Negatives aside, we really did enjoy our stay at this lovely campground and would most definitely stay again, despite any complaints that we had. And, if husband and I ever decide to want to become seasonal campers: this is the place I'd want to spend my Summer months!! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is located right on a major highway and the noise is loud, 24/7. If you must stay here for the admittedly convenient-to-the-Cape location, only stay in the back half of the campground. I had called ahead and was told there were plenty of sites to choose from for mid-week camping: but when we arrived they offered only a couple of the worst sites. As we were trying to figure out whether or not to stay, they obnoxiously said "Well, you don't HAVE to stay here" and I guess we shouldn't have! It is incredibly expensive for a packed, crowded campground with tiny sites and pools you can barely stand in with the crowd. Also, for this huge area, there is only one restroom, which seemed to be closed for cleaning everytime my 3-year old had to "go potty" plus they never seemed very clean. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Very nice campground for RV's. Unfortunately I can't say the same about the cottages, they are located right in front the Dumping station and the city road. The office is like an hotel. People are very nice. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were very excited when we called the office at Bourne Scenic Park and found that they had a site available that was located right next to the bike path, on the banks of the Cape Cod Canal. The woman on the telephone who assisted us was very pleasant, describing the site as "huge" and telling us "you could park a 50 foot camper on this site!". Had I read reviews on this very site, I would've known that the Seasonal Campers "rule the roost" here and when we located our site, we were surprised to find that the Seasonal Camper who was parked on the site adjacent to ours had pretty much spread out, taking over the back half of not only their own sites, but two others as well, including ours. And it is the back half of the site that sits next to the canal. After a couple of days of stewing on this, I went to the office and asked about our site's boundaries, saying that the site map we were given clearly shows our site to back right up to the bike path, and the first woman I spoke with told me "I'll have the Manager go over and discuss "boundaries" with them that's not right!" I had taken a picture of the site with my camera phone, showing their tent with it's plywood platform, chairs, and general "overflow" that they'd tucked away on our site, not wanting to have to look at it on their own. Later that day, I saw one of the Park trucks come by and a couple of men appeared to survey the area but, instead of our "neighbor's" site getting any smaller, it spread out even more once they set up their dish satellite later in the afternoon. Ridiculous! It has left a very sour taste in my mouth for a park that I was very excited about frequenting and I am in complete agreement with others who have said it before aside from the "Seasonals" who view the Transient Campers as a nuisance, the campground is a true gem. I think they should designate areas for Seasonal Campers and not mix them throughout the entire park as they have these "squatters", for the most part, detract from the whole camping experience! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This place COULD be a real jewel, because the location cannot be beat. However, the CG is loaded with locals who have made the place more resemble a trailer park, than a campground. They do not take to transients well either, like we're invading their space. We were promised a large waterfront site right on the Cape Cod Canal, only to find a permanently installed "homestead" of a 5'ver between us and the canal. We were also told the site would be over 50' long and my 36' rig was 4ft from the road. The electric was on the wrong side and I had to borrow a 25' extension cord to reach. Luckily, I had over 100' of water hose because the water connection was even further away. Complaints about the site fell on deaf ears at the office. We also had booked a week in May through Reserve America for this CG. When my wife checked on it at the office, they told her there was no such reservation and we should have received an email telling us that nothing was available, shortly after booking. No such email was ever received. Now we are scrambling to find a place to camp for Memorial Day Weekend. Being early in the season, it's hard to judge the amenities at Bourne Scenic. Everything looks nice enough though. This review probably doesn't matter much as there are no vacancies right now, through October! It's too bad, because like I said in the beginning, the locations is fantastic. We camped here in a Motorhome.
