Early June and September are excellent shoulder-season choices for cooler nights, fewer bugs, and easier RV site availability.

How to get to Myles Standish State Park
The park entrance is off Long Pond Road in South Carver, roughly 10 minutes from Exit 3 on Interstate 495 and about 15 minutes from Route 3 near Plymouth. Boston is about 50 miles to the north (around one hour by RV in light traffic), Providence is about 45 miles west, and Cape Cod is 30 to 40 minutes east over the Sagamore or Bourne Bridge. Interior park roads are paved but narrow and winding in spots, so drivers of larger Class A motorhomes and long fifth wheels should take corners slowly and watch for low tree limbs. The nearest major fly-and-rent airport is Boston Logan International, with T.F. Green in Providence a convenient alternative.
