Bottom Line: While the location has natural beauty and potential, current operational challenges and pricing don't align well with the amenity level provided. Those seeking a quiet, well-maintained camping experience might find better value elsewhere until improvements are completed. Positive reviews seem to be coming from investors of the campground or people with personal interest.Aug. 3, 2025Normandy Farms CampgroundRepeat customer and I sure hope we can again! We were here a couple years ago and told everyone we knew about it in the PNW never knowing if our big road trips would have us near Foxboro again. Imagine our surprise and delight when our quest to hit all the MLB parks showed Normandy as proximal to Fenway. Yahoo! Red Sox win and we get to be here again. Kids and adults alike love it. What’s not to love. It’s the kind of place summer camping trip memories are made of. 4 pools, fishing pond, lodge, trivia night, soccer, baseball, softball and frisbee golf and so much more. Full hook ups. Super long sites.Aug. 3, 2025Douglas Forest RV ParkPromises made, promises brokenNot a Resort—Not Even Close This campground has one thing going for it: location. It’s nestled in a scenic area, close to lakes, shops, and local attractions. Unfortunately, everything beyond the zip code falls short—way short. Let’s start with the reviews. Many of the 5-star ratings appear to be posted by people connected to the park. The previous owners—who were reportedly ordered to step away—are still involved in daily operations and“renovations.” Now, the electrical situation. There are vague mentions of a future upgrade, but as of August, there’s no approved plan, and no work has started. The power system is unreliable and, frankly, unsafe. Breakers trip when multiple A/Cs run on warm days. Some pedestals are shared between up to four RVs. Others are infested with mice—yes, actual live and dead mice inside the boxes. We saw it ourselves. Several campers experienced rig damage from voltage instability. Water is mostly consistent now, but it had its fair share of issues due to poor piping and electrical problems with the well pump. Wi-Fi? Don’t count on it. There’s no campground internet available. One of the employees shared their personal hotspot with nearby campers, but it’s limited in range and speed. If you plan on working remotely, streaming, or even browsing, bring your own connection. Roads through the park are rough and rocky. There were attempts to improve them, but it looks like they ran out of time, money, or interest. Some sections have reclaimed pavement material, but most side roads are loose stone and dirt. Large RVs beware—tight corners, misplaced boulders, and uneven terrain can be tricky. Walk your path first. Accessibility is a major issue. Most campsites are covered in loose rock, making them almost impossible to navigate with mobility aids. Wheelchairs are a hard no. Even the ADA ramp to the laundry has a lip so high, it’s a barrier, not a benefit. One ADA-compliant restroom exists—way at the front of the park—with a single unisex shower. The men’s bathroom is still under construction(and was promised months ago), while the women’s side only recently reopened—and initially had no stall dividers. Campground rules? Not enforced. Kids run wild on four-wheelers, tearing through pedestrian areas and between campsites. Many roam unsupervised well into the night. They're often seen peeking at gear on other sites. Staff does little to correct behavior or enforce pool rules(kids under 16 in the water without supervision). The saltwater pool is the nicest feature—but it’s only 4 feet deep and the heater doesn’t function properly. Lastly, the park has visible homeless encampments on-site. I have no issue with people down on their luck, but it’s misleading to call this a“resort” when the grounds reflect neglect and mismanagement. For the price, you expect better—at minimum, safety, functionality, and truth in advertising. TL;DR: Great location. Poor management. Unsafe electrical. Limited amenities. No Wi-Fi. Inaccessible for anyone with mobility challenges. Disruptive environment. The campground could be something special—but right now, it's a work in progress being marketed as a finished product. Would I stay again? Not unless things change dramatically. Spend your money elsewhere—for now.Aug. 3, 2025Douglas Forest RV ResortAmazing Progress! Great value and quality!
