Picking your collective brains: camping?

[emcicle.livejournal.com]

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good, family oriented campground? we want to go camping next weekend, just one night, as it will be the first time we take the little ones camping and not sure how they'll react to it. We have no preference for state (MA, NH, VT, maybe ME, although that might be a little far for just one night). (Edit to add: I'm thinking somewhere with a pool or a lake, fairly easy hiking trails, and generally laid back. Not somewhere that will be full of hardcore campers/hikers that might be annoyed by our car camping ways, and also somewhere that isn't full of people boozing it up all day/night)

any suggestions appreciated. and if this is too far off topic for DSLJ, let me know and I'll take it down.

Thanks!

Tully Lake in Royalston is a campground run by the Trustees of Reservations. They have swimming and kayaking and some nice hiking trails. The campsites require a short walk from the parking lot and are generally pretty laid back. http://www.thetrustees.org/places-to-visit/places-to-stay/tully-lake-campground/
