Wolf Den Campground
Steeped in history, legend and lore, Mashamoquet Brook offers hiking, camping, and fishing for the whole family. Named after the Mohegan word for “stream of good fishing”, the park was once the domain of the Mohegan Chief, Uncas. Later, Captain John Sabin built a house here to serve as an outpost and the settlement gradually increased in size. Today’s 1,000+ acre park is the combination of three parks: the original Mashamoquet Brook, Wolf Den, and Saptree Run. (via site)
