Closed — This park does not offer camping. Day-use only from sunrise to sunset.
Special Weather Statement issued March 3 at 7:38PM EST by NWS Boston/Norton MA
Widespread rain and freezing rain will continue into the overnight hours...but should come to an end toward daybreak. However...residual moisture, light winds and the cold ground from our recent weather will be favorable for the formation of black ice. This may also be accompanied by some freezing fog too. Motorists traveling early Wednesday morning should allow extra time to reach their destination and be prepared for black ice. Untreated walkways and parking lots may also become very slippery for pedestrians. Temperatures should rise above freezing by mid- late Wednesday morning alleviating any black ice issues.

About
Hopkinton State Park encompasses 1,500 acres of forested land surrounding the scenic Hopkinton Reservoir in Hopkinton and Ashland, Massachusetts. The park is a popular day-use destination offering diverse recreational opportunities year-round. During the warmer months from late May through Labor Day, two seasonally lifeguarded beaches provide swimming access, while Regatta Point Community Sailing offers kayak, canoe, and stand-up paddleboard rentals. The park features more than 10 miles of multi-use trails suitable for hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling. Multiple picnic areas throughout the park include tables and stationary charcoal grills available first-come, first-served, plus two pavilions that can be reserved seasonally. The historic earthen dam provides scenic views of the reservoir, and fishing is permitted throughout the park. Non-motorized boats can be hand-launched at the car-top boat ramp. Dogs are welcome on leash but are prohibited from beaches May 1 through September 15. Parking fees apply from May through mid-October. It is important to note that Hopkinton State Park does not offer camping facilities or permit overnight stays of any kind.
