Camping Cape Cod will give visiting couples a small taste of what it was like for Henry David Thoreau all those years ago when he chronicled his trips to the Cape and wrote what, even today, many consider to be the best book ever written about Cape Cod.

Cape Cod campgrounds also offer quite possibly the least expensive way to visit the area, and a surpisigly wide array of outdoor experiences from bare bones and rustic to yurt camping, which allows you to enjoy nature while the amenities of a 5-star hotel.

That kind of defeats the purpose, if you ask us, but it might be the only way to convince an otherwise reluctant partner to give camping a try.

Nickerson State Park in Brewster is the largest and best known location for camping Cape Cod, but it is far from the only one.

Our Cape Cod campground directory lists every campground from the Bourne Scenic Park in Buzzards Bay to the Dunes Edge Campground in PTown.

We've included basic information, a brief description, a photo where possible, and a link to the property's website.

On each property's page, there is also an invitation for guests to review their stay and grade their visit.
