At an elevation of over 3,400 feet, Mount Greylock is the tallest point and home to some of the best views in the Bay State. And did you know you can actually spend the night atop this mountain? It’s true! Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps, you can stay at Bascom Lodge, a stunning Massachusetts state park lodge.
Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1937, the arts and crafts-style Bascom Lodge is one of the most unique places to spend the night in Massachusetts.

And while Bascom Lodge doesn’t have the amenities as many resorts throughout the state, its history and views more than make up for it. You certainly can’t get views like this from anywhere else in the state than from Bascom Lodge atop Mount Greylock.
