Nobscot Scout Reservation - Ellisland campsite #2 Woods

Ellisland – has excellent tenting sites for scouts. To get to this easily-located site, take Ellisland Trail to the end and turn right on Jethro Trail. There is a sign marking the entrance to Ellisland a few hundred yards up on your left. Ellisland is accessed from two trails, both off of the southern end of Jethro Trail. Jethro Trail loops up to White Ridge and back down to Monsen Trail – through the Framingham side of Nobscot.

Both Ellisland and Haydeland are very large, shared tenting sites. Expect that there may be other Scout units tenting there also.
