The Sandbox campground was born from The Sandbox Indoor Beach Sports and Events facility, which mainly focuses on providing year round beach volleyball.
We bought the property in 2015 and opened the facility in 2019.
As it happens, it's a 12+ acre lot surrounded by wetlands, hiking and biking trails ... there will never be another building built within view of our facility.
We are surrounded by nature, and will be forever.
So what a great opportunity to offer camping and access to all of the forests, woodlands, wetlands and trails around! And if you're up for it, come play some beach volleyball and meet new lifelong friends :)

There are several options for setting up your tent. You will be the only ones at Fernwood, or Fernwood 2 unless we happen to be up working on the land. No matter where you set up you'll have your own private fire pit, and level ground for your tent(s).
Come and enjoy a quiet retreat, or use Fernwood as a base for many outdoor activities-biking, fishing, hiking-all nearby. Natchaug Forest offers great trout fishing. Goodwin State Forest is less than 3 miles away by car where you can put in a canoe on Pine Lake, amble through the wildflower and pollinator gardens, or enjoy the Education Center and Museum. From Goodwin, you can access the Air Line State Park Bike/Hiking Path.
Hampton also has a general store that has simple food, frozen dinners that Kara will heat up for you, gifts, and awesome Ice Cream Sodas!

If you want a change from all that nature, there is Sharpe Hill Vineyard less than 10 miles away, as well as We-Li-Kit IceCream less than 6 miles. The route to either place will take you through beautiful scenic farmland.
We hope you enjoy our forest and the surrounding area as much as we do.

Located in the historic Cape Cod town of Sandwich, MA, our property features spacious RV campsites and charming vacation rentals. We are just over the Sagamore Bridge, a short drive to the heart of Cape Cod. Only minutes away from Cape Cod's top attractions, including museums, scenic ocean beaches, and delicious seafood shanties. There’s something for everyone to enjoy! Our secluded, pet-friendly campground is nestled in a tranquil natural setting alongside one of the cleanest swimming ponds on Cape Cod.
Whether you are looking for a weekend RV retreat or a longer stay in one of our Cape Cod cottage rentals, we have the perfect vacation spot for you. Our quaint cottages border the crystal-clear waters of Peter’s Pond, a 127-acre spring-fed kettle pond. Swim out to the raft, relax, float on a tube, and enjoy family fun in the cool water. We offer rowboat and sunfish sailboats plus dock rentals with convenient boat ramp access, all just steps from our sandy beach.
Our large RV park sites are wooded and peaceful, with plenty of room. We offer full hookups: water, electricity, and sewer. The sites are pull-through with a picnic table.
If you love fishing, the pond is stocked with Brook, Brown, Rainbow, and Tiger trout as well as largemouth and smallmouth bass. It was featured in The Fisherman Magazine in February 2022. Come cast a line and enjoy this Cape Cod fishing destination!
DunRoamin on Peter’s Pond is a perfect family getaway. We offer a playground, and fun activities throughout the summer. Join us for weekly campfires and have s'mores at the beach. There are plenty of opportunities for outdoor adventures in our campground. Hike the small walking trail and discover local fauna and woodland creatures. Your child will love exploring the woods and discovering the wonders of nature. Our main attractions are swimming and building sandcastles on our private beach. However, nothing compares to catching crawfish with a flashlight or chasing fireflies on a hot summer night!
Please note:
Pets are allowed with proof of vaccination.
There are single-stall restrooms but no bathhouse on-site — we only accept self-contained units.
If you would like to bring a boat, please reach out for dock rentals or trailer storage.
Thank you.

Absolutely gorgeous and remote location! Dark enough to see the stars, quiet enough to count every cricket, frog, & owl lulling you to sleep. Didn't see or hear a single car or person the entire time we were there. There's also a beautiful nature reserve up the road that opens up deeper into the woods!
Alan's a very kind and thorough host, providing firewood, porto-potty, and water to wash up with. The property is very well-maintained, with moss & soil soft enough to walk bare-foot.

Great spot to stop for a few days and catch up on some remote work on the road. We invited Brendan to stop by and got a personal tour of the Sandbox beach volleyball facility and new amphitheater currently under construction.
Really close to historic Mystic and Stonington, as well as, some pleasant short hikes!
Brendan was very nice and accommodating. We're hoping to pass through next year to see the progress on the theater project!

We had a wonderful stay on Alan’s land. The camp was well kept, with freshly laid wood chips. Alan’s stocked and wood and water was a big plus. The porta potty was immaculate. But most of all it was so quiet and private. That is until Abner, a neighborhood mule out of nowhere let out a crazy, unexpected bray which was actually pretty awesome; never heard anything like it.

Stayed labor day weekend with our dog. Nice quiet spot - off the road but still secluded enough. Site was large and includes fire-pit, picnic bench, and portapotty(clean with tp). 2 crates of firewood for 2 nights was plenty enough. There’s 2 state parks within a few min drive, I enjoyed natchuag more than Goodwin (the trails were too overgrown during this time). Overall a good experience- thank you Alan for the stay!

This was our first Hipcamp experience and let me tell you, we couldn't have picked a better one. When we got to what looked like a dirt cattle trail, we stopped and asked a farmer if he knew Allen. "I do." And would you know where Fernwood 2 is? "I do. Drive another 50 feet and turn right." What a beautiful little spot. The cleanest, nicest smelling portable john I have ever seen. We plan to come south again next year and Fernwood 2 will be on our itinerary. Allen and his wife were gracious and very friendly.

We stayed for five days, it was exactly what we were looking for. Beautiful property, nice quiet surroundings. Plenty of great fishing spots in town and neighboring towns. Can’t express how secluded it feels. Alan was great, very nice man and you can tell how much pride he takes in his land. If you’re looking to get away and unplug from everything I couldn’t suggest a better place to do it. Also make sure you get some coffee cake from the Hampton General Store only a few minutes away.

Fernwood 2 is a beautiful site with accessible hiking trails and an open view of the sky above the fire pit - which was perfect for stargazing. We forgot our fold-up table, but the provided picnic table was more than perfect for our needs.
