Sweetwater Forest maintains an area dedicated exclusively for those who prefer tent camping closer to nature amidst the peaceful, beautiful surroundings of Cape Cod's natural woodlands, and prefer being awakened by chorus of various woodland and meadow birds chirping and calling, as well as those from the nearby wetlands of the lake, and retired Cranberry Bog. B-Area was designed for just that in the early 1960's, and to this day remains dedicated to tent campers and other campers, using camping vans and small pop-ups, who do not require on-site hookups-and who do not enjoy waking to the sounds of large RVs coming and going, and instead prefer awakening in the morning to the sounds of birds chirping to announce the arrival of another new day. Although RVs and Camping Trailers are not permitted in B-Area, this is by no means what some campgrounds call "primitive camping." Tent sites are well separated by the woodlands, and most have unique features that add to the natural beauty of the area. Water hydrants are spread throughout B-Area, with Free Hot showers and flush toilets available in our Comfort Stations. B-Area has a variety of native terrain, with level, private sites spread throughout charming, gently rolling native terrain with an abundance of natural shade cast from an overhead canopy of leaves, vines and pine-needles which covers much of the area. B-Area borders the Lake and fully encompasses our retired Cape Cod Cranberry Bog, which is now a haven for wetland wildlife! The area features its own centrally located Comfort Station, complete with free hot showers and more, amidst an area with private, level tent sites and room for parking, all artfully created throughout a charming, gently rolling, native terrain which wraps around our retired cranberry bog, and overlooks the lake in places. An abundance of natural shade is cast from an overhead canopy of leaves, vines and pine-needles. Several B Area sites surround Sweetwater's "retired" Cranberry Bog, which borders our lake, and is overlooked by some of our other sites. The cranberry bog is now home to a variety of interesting birds and other wildlife, which makes it a pleasant place for all- especially those interested in nature and the wildlife that inhabit Cape Cod. |
