You'll want to bring your own air mattresses and bedding, as well as any supplies you'll need.
But step away from your group if you get the chance. You just might spot deer, rabbits, muskrat, mink, or a fox.
The park was named for the State Parks Commission's longtime chair, Edwin A. Burlingame. During the 1930s, it was the primary base of operations for the Rhode Island activities of the Civilian Conservation Corps.
Between the swimming, fishing, and hiking available, you'll sleep better than ever underneath the stars.
