Nickerson State Park - Area 6

Great place to camp , fish , hike, beaches are amazing , all sand.

One of my favorite inexpensive places to stay on the cape. Between it being a clean campground with a well kept pond, it’s also connects to the rail trail and a 15 min bike ride to the beach by bike depending on where your camp site is in the park.

I only gave it a three because I was trying to walk in nice walk ing trails near the ocean but instead it was a forest ..kods and husband loved it..we found the nice lake to swim in that was pristine, clear warm water

This review is strictly on area 6X. We LOVE Nickerson! The best family state park! Great swimming, hike trails and biking. Great place for the family to enjoy the outdoors. However, area 6x is not our favorite one and we've stayed at all of them. It's not that bad it's just that we would rather stay at other ones like areas. It's far from store, playground and the swimming beach is not the nicest one. I actually think is the worse one from the whole park but, if you like mountain biking, it has great trails near by, it also is peaceful and you have showers at close proximity our site (110) was actually very private and convenient. It had water across from site and bathrooms weren't to far.

My friend and I stayed at area 6X this August. Overall the site is clean and near bathroom and shower house. Very important when you have a bunch of kids. It has one big open sandy area where you will find one small fire pit/grill, like the one you would find at a single family site. For a group site I would expect a bigger grill. BBQ on this for a big group takes forever. As a comparison one of the group site at Shawme Crowell State Park offers a big platform grill and it is at waist height. Huge difference. The entrance to the site offers four parking space but it can accommodate up to six if you want. That is a plus. The downside is that the parking area has two big tree stumps, one right in the middle and one on the side. Couple of our cars didn't realize that and drove int
