Why is it worth booking a campervan early?

Massachusetts is a perfect holiday destination for campervan enthusiasts who wish to soak up the state’s natural landscape, historic landmarks, and charming cities. Whether you want to explore the state with family or friends, you’ll always find an ideal campervan designed to suit your travel needs. To enjoy the best experience in Massachusetts, most tourists prefer visiting the state during May and October. These months are ideal for campervan trips and outdoor recreation due to their comfortable weather and tolerable temperatures. When renting a campervan with CamperDays, we highly recommend travelers book campervans as soon as possible. You run the risk of disappointment if you wait until the demand for campervans is high. An early booking will help you enjoy excellent value for your money since price changes due to high demand for campervans won’t affect you. Also, booking a campervan in Massachusetts in advance will ensure you have the biggest selection from the vast available choices. In addition, you’ll enjoy fair and transparent cancellation conditions and no hidden charges when making reservation changes. Using an RV rental in Massachusetts has more benefits than booking a hotel or vacation rental. First, a campervan gives you the freedom and flexibility to explore the state at your will. That means you don’t have to worry about working on schedules and renting a car to explore. Also, your campervan will serve as a comfortable accommodation with a kitchen to prepare your favorite meals. As a result, you’ll end up saving more money you’d have used in hotels and restaurants. In addition, if you have any queries about booking or driving your RV rental in Massachusetts, you can contact CamperDays customer service department, ready to respond in no time with the help you require.

Top tips for your Campervan trip to Massachusetts

Massachusetts is one of those places where every season brings something different. Summers are perfect for coastal drives, stopping at seafood shacks. Autumn is when the whole state turns a fantastic colour, and winter can bring snow to the western part.

• 

  Driving
  Coastal roads like Route 6 in Cape Cod or Route 127 are breathtaking, but watch for sharp turns and other vehicles. If you end up in Boston (where you will likely pick up your motorhome for hire in Massachusetts from), then be prepared for impatient drivers and bad traffic, but you will probably be heading straight out or picking up your campervan on the outskirts.
• 

  Family friendly-activities
  The Boston Children’s Museum always goes down well, it's full of hands-on interactive exhibits that make learning fun. If your family is more outdoorsy, then Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary in Lincoln is perfect, where you can meet the animals, and watch live demonstrations.
• 

  The Outdoors
  The Berkshires are where everyone heads to for the best mountain views with trails like Mount Greylock (the highest peak in the state) and Bash Bish Falls - a great waterfall with a shorter walk. Cape Cod National Seashore is where you’ll find beaches, dunes and lighthouses. You could take a ferry to Natucket if you want an island adventure.

Best Campervan routes from Massachusetts

Boston to The Berkshires
This is a lovely 250km drive that mountain lovers and art fans will like. Rent a motorhome in Massachusetts, head West along the I-90, and call at Northampton, a quirky little town full of bookshops, live music, and other boutique shops. After that, stop at Stockbridge, home to the Norman Rockwell Museum where you can check out his artwork. After that, you could drive into Mount Greylock State Reservation. Make your final stop at North Adams, a small but artsy town with some of the best museums in the country.

Boston to Martha’s Vineyard & Nantucket
Adding a bit of island hopping into a road trip is always fun. When you rent a campervan in Massachusetts, you can get to places that others can’t. This road trip starts in Boston and heads towards Cape Cod. From there, head to Woods Hole, where you’ll catch the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard. Once on the island, you can check out all the little seaside villages and lighthouses perfect for snapping on Instagram. You could then catch another ferry to Nantucket, a small, famous, adorable island. 

Springfield to Mohawk & Mounts Greylock
This is only a short 220km route, but it's packed with things to do. Springfield has loads to do before you leave (Basketball Hall of Fame and the Dr. Seuss Museum). After heading out onto the Mohawk Trail, a lovely scenic drive, stop in Shelburne Falls and take a picture by the Bridge of Flowers. Carry to Mount Greylock, where you can drive up to the summit and see five different states. This route has it all.

Sites of interest and excursions in Massachusetts

Salem
When you think of Salem, you probably think of Witches, and you would be right. This is officially known as New England’s spookiest town, famous for the 1692 witch trials and the town fully embraces its eerier past. Check out the Salem Witch Museum and the Witch House, the only building still standing with direct ties to the trial. Apart from the spooky stuff, it's a cool town full of charm. If you visit in October, be prepared for the best Halloween experience ever.

Cape Ann & Rockport
Everyone's heard of Cape Cod, but you can still get fantastic sea views if you want to escape the crowds. Cape Anne is only an hour's drive from Boston but has excellent seafood, beaches and harbours which are perfect for campervan adventure.  Stop at Gloucester, check out the Fisherman's Memorial, and grab a lobster roll (because you have to, right?). Then head up to Rockport with its famous red fishing shack. After that, drive along the coastal roads and enjoy the traffic-free roads.

Mount Wachusett State Reservation
If you are after somewhere for a quick escape, head to Mount Wachusett, only about 90 minutes outside of Boston. It's where you will find the tallest mountain outside of The Bekrshires. Take the Harrington trail to the summit for a picture of Boston's skyline on a clear day. As mentioned earlier, you can also drive up, which would be our favourite option. It turns into a ski resort if you are here in the winter.
