If traveling in the Cape Cod area of Massachusetts this is a good camp ground. Sites are level and campground has good amenities. Office staff friendly and helpful. Location close to Bourne Bridge, making it an easy drive onto the cape. Wi-Fi is marginal and often takes many attempts to get a good connection. Cable TV channels are limited. If traveling with kids this campground has many planned activities. Would definitely return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

An absolutely perfect campground. Friendly staff, very clean swimming pools, a nice game room with newer games, two well-stocked stores, and a nice food 'wagon' with very decent prices. The sites are well maintained and are medium-sized. We'll be back for sure. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Enforcement of the minimum stay requirements is inconsistent. We stayed 7 nights over the 4th of July weekend as required. We saw many tenters leave after only 3 nights. We were in the Oyster Cover section which has 30 amp electric, water, and cable tv hookups. No where on the website or in their brochures does it state that this is a "Group Camping area" until you arrive at the campground and read it on the posted signs. There were close to 30 people on two sites in this section. They had 5-6 tents set up. They had visitors all weekend, and at one point we counted 11 vehicles. This is NOT camping. The party lasted all weekend long. The bathrooms in this section are inadequate to handle a crowd of this size. There are 3 toilets, 2 sinks, and 2 showers in each of the women's and men's bathrooms. Again, Bayview didn't enforce their own rules. Their website and all of their brochures state that "Sites are offered for FAMILY CAMPING, which we define as the camper, his or her spouse or partner and their unmarried children. Maximum occupancy per site is 8 persons." There were many adults on these 2 sites all weekend. We expressed our frustration with this situation to the management in the office, though nothing was done. It seems that Bayview cares more about how much additional revenue it can take in from all of these additional overnight guests instead of families who travel great distances for a vacation. Avoid this place. I would not recommend nor stay here again. There are several other campgrounds throughout the Cape. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Bourne Scenic Park is narrow piece of land about a mile long located between route 6 and the Cape Cod Canal in Bourne, MA starting just west of the Bourne Bridge. This is a town run campground on land leased to them by the Army Corps of Engineers. Management, the office staff, store staff and staff in the campground were very friendly and helpful when asked. The location of the campground makes it a great place for watching the boats and ships traveling through the canal. The manned security gate is a plus. Our site had 50 amp service with gray water pit. We were told only a small section of the campground had upgraded electrical service. There is a dump station for black water. Wi-Fi is only available at the pavilion. There appears to be a lot of scheduled activities and two small pools manned with lifeguards. There are almost no mosquitoes, I guessing due to the smoke. The store had the best Ice Cream. Now for the negative review. 1. Part of campground sits directly below the Bourne Bridge. This bridge transverses the Cape Cod Canal. Trucks crossing over the top use their Jake Brake to slow down in both directions. Tires hitting the expansion joints add to the noise (thump, thump). The noise of the traffic and the braking gets to be very annoying. 2. Emergency vehicles across the canal start their sirens leaving the station and appear to not shut them off until the reach their destination. By the frequency of the noise, they get a lot of calls. 3. NO Air Conditioners are allowed to be used even though we had 50 amp service at 120 plus volts. This means that if you shut your RV’s windows due to the campfire smoke you literally roast. It can get very hot and damp in the RV at night. The smoke just seems to hang in the trees due to the heavy canopy.. 4. No cable and we could only get one station (not all the time though) consistently OTA. We had to face the antenna toward the Bourne Bridge even though the station was in the opposite direction. Trees blocked any chance of a remote satellite dish. 5. Even though there are a lot of sites with grass and excellent views of the canal, you cannot get reserve one. The seasonals have almost all of them. Our site was all sand. 6. Burning of trash in the fire pits is a frequent pastime at this campground. Nothing like the smell of burning trash before you get up in the morning. 7. As far as I could see, none of their rules are being enforced. C section is far enough away so that the bridge noise is significantly reduced. This section is well above the canal. There are many sets of steps leading to the canal service road. The number of steps range from 20 to 50 steps depending where you are located in C section. This section is extremely tight. The larger sites and the sites with a canal view appear to be taken by the seasonals. The roads are very narrow in C section. My neighbor from Rhode Island mentioned to me that the seasonals were not very friendly and I agree. If you can deal with the noise, no A/C , heavy smoke and the smell of burning trash, this might be the perfect campground for you. Until they allow the use of A/C's, I would not recommend Bourne Scenic Park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were very disappointed with this park. I did not review the rules before we came so found out after we arrived that they do not allow air conditioners to be run even though we had 50 amps. We were able to get into the spot but they are arranged back to front and we had no where to sit outside as the party next to us had the entire area with lots of kids. The interior roads were very narrow and the dump would have been very difficult to maneuver with a 45 ft. motor home. Nothing like what their web site said. Office help were wonderful and helpful and made you feel welcomed when we arrived. We would not return. We camped here in a Motorhome.
