Massachusetts Travel and the Scusset Beach State Reservation

The crashing sound of waves at Scusset Beach has long provided campers with a soothing nighttime lullaby, lulling tired vacationers into a peaceful slumber. For years, Massachusetts travel car rental customers have laid themselves to rest beneath the sunset on this Cape Cod beach, listening to the lapping water and smelling the seaside breeze. Serenity is Scusset Beach's middle name, so why not submerse yourself in this peaceful atmosphere during your upcoming Massachusetts travel car rental vacation? The sun streaked sky and rhythmic sounds of the waves are the perfect prescription for over-stressed nerves.

Sit back and enjoy the simple joys of nature

The Scusset Beach State Reservation in Massachusetts boasts a location quite unlike any other park in the world. Situated on Cape Cod Bay at the east end of the Cape Cid Canal, the reservation features a diverse array of natural attractions. During the day, customers of Verc Massachusetts Travel Car Rentals can stroll along the beach, hike through the surrounding forests or picnic on rocking outcroppings. When the sun sets, visitors to the park will witness a magnificent display of light and color. From pinks to purples, and oranges to blues, the setting sun at Scusset Beach State Reservation is worth the drive itself.

Conquer the great outdoors with your Massachusetts travel car rental friends

The beauty of Scusset Beach State Reservation is most potent in the early morning hours and the hours around dusk. In order to enjoy these sights, customers of Verc Massachusetts Travel Car Rental should seriously consider spending the night inside the park. There are currently 98 campsites available within the reservation, all of which are equipped for both tents and trailers. Running water and restrooms are located throughout the campground, as well as public telephones and parking. The campground is located within walking distance of the beach, the bathhouse and the snack bar. A group campsite is also available along with a dumping station for trailers.

Have a swimming good time with your Massachusetts travel car rental friends

Swimming is a number one priority at the Scusset Beach State Reservation, thanks to the park's unique location on Cape Cod Bay. Hundreds of people can be found lining Scusset Beach during the hot summer months, cooling off in the refreshing waters off the bay. Fishing is another great recreation opportunity at Scusset Beach, thanks to the reservations proximity to the Cape Cod Canal. Anglers currently have access to over 1.5 miles of frontage along the canal, including a popular pier. If you're neither a swimmer nor an angler, don't worry - you and your Massachusetts travel car rental friends can still enjoy the waters that surround the reservation simply by watching the dozens of boats that drift by daily.
