What a dream Fernwood was, we stayed in a tent spot with some friends and top to tails the experience was magic. Marion, the owner, welcomed us when we arrived, gave us the lay of the land and even before we go there had made some lovely recommendations on where to go, what to do, and the nuances of our experience there. Having water on site was a game changer.

While the Porto-Poty near the tent sites was not great, it was still cleaned regularly and the bath house / formal rest rooms were well maintained, though a bit dated. Marion also let us know that they typically have better firewood in stock, but had trouble sourcing it so we were left buying some hardwood that was a nightmare to light... but she was upfront about it so all good.

We had a few neighbors who were louder than we'd have preferred, but everyone was having a great time. Only drawbacks was that Plunkett Reservoir has about 40 feet of 'beach' and is a bit of a hike to get to, plus by late afternoon it's completely shaded (we went in early Sept) and there aren't too many trails connected directly to the campground so ya gotta have a car to get around. We went to Ozzie's for breakfast one morning which was delicious and found plenty to do around Lenox / Pittsfield and ALLLL the hiking trails you could want... again, ya just have to drive to get there.

We'll definitely be back and loved the family owned aspects, seems like there is a lot of love here and can't wait to return!
