Fantastic experience renting from Scott! I rented a Pleasure-Way Class B RV from Scott and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The RV itself was in excellent condition and very well equipped, and Scott even offered helpful extras like chairs and a table to round out the setup. Before I hit the road, Scott spent over an hour walking me through all the systems, so I felt completely confident using everything. When questions came up during the trip, he responded quickly every time. Between the great RV and Scott’s outstanding communication, this was a five-star rental from start to finish. I’d rent from him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, well-equipped RV and a host who genuinely cares about your trip going smoothly.

How to get to Mashamoquet Brook State Park
The park sits off U.S. Route 44 in Pomfret, about 50 miles (roughly 1 hour) east of Hartford and 45 miles (about 1 hour 15 minutes) north of New London. From Providence, Rhode Island, it is about 35 miles and under an hour via I-395 and Route 44. RV drivers should note that Route 44 is a two-lane rural highway with rolling grades and some tight village centers, and the park's internal roads and campground loops are narrow and wooded, which can be challenging for larger rigs. The nearest major airport for fly-and-rent trips is Bradley International Airport (BDL) near Hartford.
