Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Mashamoquet Brook adventure.
Like a J.R.R. Tolkien book, Mashamoquet Brook State Park is rich with legend and lore. The most famous tale is of Israel Putnam who, in 1742, crept into a wolf den and shot a wolf that had preyed upon local farm animals for years. That very same wolf den can still be visited in the park today, where you can craft your own tale of heroism.
After youâve saved the day, thereâs still lots of the park to explore. The name Mashamoquet is Indian for âstream of good fishing,â so itâs no surprise the catches here are fat and frequent. Pull up a lawn chair by the water and enjoy a relaxing afternoon. When night falls, warm fires from the campground beckon. When day breaks, itâs time for a whole new adventure.
