Campgrounds near South Duxbury
South Duxbury sits on Massachusetts' South Shore, roughly 35 miles southeast of Boston and about 10 miles north of Plymouth. RV renters use the area as a base for Duxbury Bay, Cape Cod Bay beaches, and the historic sites clustered around Plymouth. Most nearby camping is inland, in the pine-and-pond country of Plymouth and Carver, rather than directly on the coast.
The closest options are private, family-focused campgrounds with full hookups. Ellis Haven Family Campground and Pinewood Lodge Campgrounds sit in the pine woods west of Plymouth, both on freshwater ponds. Pinewood Lodge Campgrounds is set in 200 acres of white pine forest with 300 shaded sites on a 50-acre freshwater lake, with tenting areas and full-facility sites for almost any size rig. Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park™ Camp-Resort: Cranberry Acres in Carver, MA leans heavily on kid programming, and Indianhead Resort offers another private-park alternative.
For a public-land experience, Fearing Pond 2 - Myles Standish State Forest is the anchor. Myles Standish State Forest spans the towns of Plymouth and Carver in southeastern Massachusetts and is the largest publicly owned recreation area in this part of the state.
Things to do near South Duxbury
Duxbury Beach is the main draw. It is a six-mile barrier beach in the town of Duxbury, reached by the Powder Point Bridge from the Duxbury side or by Gurnet Road from Marshfield. Day visitors without a resident sticker use Duxbury Beach Park, accessed via Route 139 in Marshfield, where cash-only day parking, a snack bar, and comfort stations operate in season. The east-end lot at the Powder Point Bridge is resident-only from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
Inland, Myles Standish State Forest offers swimming, fishing, and paddling on multiple kettle ponds, plus an extensive trail network. Miles of hiking, equestrian, and bicycle trails lead into the forest and along the ponds. Historic Plymouth is a short drive south, with the Mayflower II, Plimoth Patuxet, and Pilgrim Memorial State Park. Cape Cod and Boston are each within roughly an hour by road.

How to book a campsite near South Duxbury
For Myles Standish State Forest, including Fearing Pond 2, reservations run through the Massachusetts DCR system on ReserveAmerica. Reservations can be made up to four months prior to the arrival date. Walk-in registrations are not permitted, but advance reservations can be made same-day up until 2 pm on the date of arrival. From April 1 through the Labor Day Monday, new inventory opens at 8 am ET daily. Summer weekends fill quickly, so booking as soon as the four-month window opens is advised.
Private campgrounds, including Ellis Haven Family Campground, Pinewood Lodge Campgrounds, Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park™ Camp-Resort: Cranberry Acres in Carver, MA, and Indianhead Resort, take reservations directly through their own websites or by phone.

What to expect at South Duxbury campgrounds
State-forest sites are rustic. Campsites in Myles Standish State Forest do not offer electrical or sewer hookups, but water spigots are distributed through the loops and a dump station with water is available for RV campers. Self-contained rigs and smaller trailers fit best; RV renters who want hookups should choose one of the private parks nearby.
House rules inside the state forest are strict. Alcoholic beverages are prohibited in all Massachusetts state parks and campgrounds. Massachusetts also prohibits transporting firewood or wood products into or out of any DCR campground, so plan to buy firewood on-site.
Expect pine-shaded sites, sandy soil, kettle ponds for swimming, and mosquitoes at dusk in summer. Cell service can be spotty in the forest interior, and quiet hours are enforced.
