About
Four yurts at Clarksburg State Park's campground, labeled a "small" yurt size on the park's own live site map. One of the four (Yurt 4) is confirmed furnished with an electric hookup; the same detail isn't listed for the other three, so treat their electricity as unconfirmed rather than assumed. Two of the four (Yurt 1 and Yurt 3) are wheelchair accessible; the other two (Yurt 2 and Yurt 4) are not. The park's own materials don't describe yurt-specific bedding, capacity, or bathroom details beyond the shared campground's accessible flush toilets and showers. Pets aren't allowed in Massachusetts DCR yurts or cabins statewide, even at parks where regular campsites allow pets.
Fees
The park's own live fee notice lists only its general campsite rate ($17/night MA resident, $54 non-resident), with no separate cabin/yurt rate - confirm the actual rate when you check availability and select dates. A $4.50 non-refundable reservation fee applies per booking, per Massachusetts DCR's statewide camping reservation policy.
This campground's live 2026 booking calendar runs mid-May through mid-October.
