These are correct -- however, they are neither the fastest nor the
shortest. (The shortest route is the most complex - lots of back
roads, the fastest has tolls.)
The fastest:
Take Memorial Drive West to Western Avenue. Turn left on Western
Avenue and cross the river. Stay in the middle lane crossing the
bridge. At the end of the bridge, turn left. Get in the right
lane. Take the ramp on the right for the Mass. Pike (I-90). Take the
right fork on the ramp for Mass. Pike (I-90) West. Take the
Mass. Pike to the I-495 Exit. Stay left on the exit ramp and get on
I-495 North. Take I-495 North to the Rt. 117 (Bolton) exit. [This is
either 1 or 2 exits past the I-290 exit.] Take a left off the exit
ramp onto Rt. 117 East. Take the first right (Rt. 85 South). The main
entrance to the camp is 3/10 mile on the right. There is a sign for
the camp set slightly beyond the turn.
