This is the best RV park overall we have stayed in and we traveled 26000 miles last year. It is clean, secure and has all the things for a transient... We camped here in a Motorhome.

Look in your dictionary under “Rip Off” and you’ll find this park. Very pretty, good Cable and nice, level sites. Want WiFi? Pay extra. Want a shower? Take your quarters. Hands up all those who truly enjoy being nickeled and dimed, having paid too much to start with. In the total absence of instructions, it took me a while to figure out how to make the pay shower work. My wife, who has two college degrees and 6 years’ camping experience, couldn’t get it to work at all. I think it’s their way of preserving the park for the seasonals – who predominate – and keeping out the great unwashed itinerants. With a shower like that, they’re doing their best to keep us unwashed. The desk lady, while certainly not rude, was in my opinion rather perfunctory. Nice park, long on location, short on philosophy. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A park with a lovely, comfortable 'feel'. Well looked after and obviously cared for. Extremely well spaced out sites. Lake with back-in sites. We have a dually/36' fifth wheel and our pull-through site was HUGE and level. Light tree shade. Excellent 50A supply, good water pressure, good cable TV. WiFi was pay @3.95 per day - not used. Good laundry. Easy on/off of I-95 and nearby places of interest for visits. Would have no hesitation in using again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We were first here in the park eight years ago. They have added more sites. The pull-thru's are big with plenty of room. Sites also have plenty of room and are level. For a deposit you can get a pass for the town beach which is a plus. Well planned out park and we will return again. Not far from Mystic or the casinos. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The campground was clean and well kept. The site was very large and very level. We would have liked more shade on our site (31), but were very pleased with the location and size. The staff was not rude, but also not very friendly. They seem to want to nickel and dime you. They require a $10 cash deposit if you plan to leave the campground for an access card to get you back in the gate, a $2 deposit for a bundle of $5 wood because they are in milk crates and they'll give you $2 back when you return the crate, a $40 cash deposit for the McCook's beach pass that must be returned that day before the office closes or you forfeit the $40, and the shower's required quarters to use. For $45 a night, I shouldn't have to give them the extra money. Have me sign a slip that says if I don't return the access card or the beach pass, my credit card will be charge. For the other fees, come on....cost of doing business! You got my $45 a night and my credit card number. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Where do I start? This is not a "family" campground. The $45/night fee is high considering what they have. Game room consisted of 3 games -- 2 of which were broken. Pool table had only one working cue. The pond is for swimming and to use paddle boats, but it was filthy! Beach was super small. There was a playground - but it consisted of swings and one other piece of equipment. I was over charged when I checked in (by a night's fee), and when I went back to question it later that day, I was met by a stern woman at the front desk who was rude -- basically was trying to tell me that my nightly fee was higher than it should have been. Another woman came out of the office and corrected the situation. She was nice and eager to fix the situation. Their activities consist of fishing (there were no fish when we tried - even though I believe they said it was a stocked pond), cheese & wine parties (of which you bring your own wine, they provide the cheese & crackers!), and other minor "activities" that basically cost you money (purchase chowder in the front office and card games.) They have wi-fi, but it costs. This is definitely a place for campers who want to just park their large RV someplace, and go on day trips. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Our only criticism of this park would be the management. We made a reservation for Sat/Sun but later learned that we would only have time for one night and called a few days before to advise them. No pleasant discussion at all. It was a case of "well we'll charge you for two nights anyway". Accepted that, but the attitude was rude. Arrived at 1pm on the Saturday and was charged an extra $5 for being 2 hours before check-in time. Been on the road for a year now and this has never happened. Especially when we've paid for two nights and only staying for one. Tried the wifi that was advertised and it did not work. Back to the office and they gave me the tel. no. of the wifi co. - Linkspot. They told me the park is off the air. Back to the office and they called Linkspot, but it was obvious that the system had been "down" for some time as they told Linkspot that they were unhappy with repeated complaints from campers. The park is very pleasant with lakes and excellent pull-thru sites. Shame about the penny-pinching attitude and we would not be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Not the family campground we were looking for, more geared toward adults. Nice park nonetheless. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice park in a great location. Lots to do near by (casinos, restaurants, Mystic Harbour, waterfront towns, Newport R.I. close by as well). Smartly managed and well maintained; albeit I don't personally like pea gravel on my campsite. I would highly recommend. Made for really big rigs 40-45 footers easily accommodated. WiFi is poor; however. Needs more antennae and updated backbone software. Fishing in campground stream and lakes spotty. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We love this park. Close to the ferry which is convienant for us. We also LOVE the fact that they have full hook up on the lake. My kids went fishing here for the first time. There is a river that runs through the property, and the kids loved exploring with nets to see what they could catch and later release. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed in this park for two weeks and truly enjoyed it. The park is quiet, very well kept and has plenty of elbow room due to the large sites. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We camp here a half a dozen times a year for the past five years and have always found the owners to be professional and polite.An excellent location to be at to tour local sites such as the casinos nearby and popular restaurants. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Beautiful, clean, quiet! Nicely landscaped, grounds were well taken care of. No planned activities for kids, but for us older folks it was pure heaven. Very tranquil. I would have rated it a 10 but they didn't have a pool. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We made a reservation 2 months ago for a 1 week stay. Due to flooding along the way we called to see if we could get in a week earlier for a stay of 2 weeks. Cathy assured us we could come in and she would find something and we may have to move a couple of times which we understood. The following day we received a call from Cathy and she had a full hook up site for us beginning on June 30-July 13 and we would not have to move. Needless to say, we were thrilled and feel that Cathy went above and beyond to accomodate us especially over the 4th. of July. She was also extremely helpful with directions to various places. Great park, good sites, would return on next visit to CT. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice park with a bad attitude. Owners are very rude. They should retire and sell the place to someone who knows how to treat guests. We will not be back. The nearby casino is putting in an RV Park and we can't wait to stay there. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is the worst management that I have ever experienced. We reserved for a month well ahead of time and were quoted $843.00 for one month of water sewer and electric pull through site, and cable TV would be extra (no mention of any extra electrical charges). On check in we paid this amount with a credit card and we declined the cable TV (still no mention of extra electrical charges). After 10 days of our stay the owner informed us that we were also being charged for $0.20/kwh for electricity on top of the high monthly rate. According to her that is their policy, however we were never informed of this on reservation or at check in. She did offer to charge us the higher weekly rate which includes electricity rather than the monthly rate. In addition, there is an extra charge for every other little thing they can think of, such as, gate key for the automatic gate system, showers cost extra, wifi costs extra, cable cost extra, high prices on the washers and dryers, charges for any visitors even to just come and pick you up. The dumpsters are not emptied frequently enough and the sites are infested with ants. The staff treats the guests as if they are the enemy. No hospitality what so ever. This type of management style is what gives the RV industry a bad name. This is really a shame because the park could have such a different atmosphere with the proper ownership. I will not stay here again. Do not recommend this park to your worst enemy. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Aces High is a very nice RV Park. It does not have a swimming pool, however, they do have a swimming area. The back comfort station was locked so I cannot comment on the cleanliness of the bathroom or showers. The brochure said showers cost a quarter for 7 minutes. I think the hookups could have been arranged better (put the sewer connection towards the back of the site). Owners seemed friendly. I thought it was going to be deserted, being November, but there was 45 units there Saturday morning! I checked in about 15 minutes early and was not charged extra. Site was fairly level. The only discount they offer is Good Sam, nothing else. No discount for being off season either, it is $42 year round. I would stay there again if I needed to, but I would rather check out other campgrounds first. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice park in quite setting. Lighted hookup posts, not much light at night otherwise. This park can handle any size rig, and has both shaded and open sites for people wanting to use satellite internet. Very nice playground, and looked as though much planning went into entire park. There were concrete drains below water hydrants, concrete collars around sewer connections, cable-tv hookup in the lighted hookup boxes. We were just overnighting there, but it looked like a good destination park with the lake for fishing, nice playground, and swimming pool. The family that runs the park seemed nice enough at check-in. I didn't give it a 10 because it lacked paved roads and concrete pads on the sites. I didn't notice the dust previously mentioned, but I'm sure with a long dry spell it could get dusty. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park was very nice, sites had goose crap all over so it was like tip toeing thru, also owners where very rude and changed rules as they seem fit will never go back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a very nice campground, very clean and quiet, it is more of an adult campground as there is not much for youn children to do other than fish. The area itself does have alot for children tho so having something for them to do should be no problem. We stay here several times a year and really enjoy this place. The seasonals are nice to us as well and always look for us when we come back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We really liked this park. It is very accomodating to big rigs with slides and an internet dish. Compared to other parks close to Foxwoods Casino and Mohegan Sun Casino this one rates the highest. It is only 6 years old and the spaces are large. Others in the area dont even have sewer. We would definitely come back if we ever travel this way again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This could be a world-class RV resort but, unfortunately, it is not, primarily due to management. The park has very long pull-throughs and excellent turning room for big rigs, and all sites are level. The grounds are very attractive and it is surrounded by lakes and fairly high hills. The problem is there is dust--dust everywhere. It gets into everything. It is due to very, very fine rock on the roads and on the sites and it is like dry powder when the wind blows or when someone drives by. It is terrible. You would think they would at least pave the roads in a park this nice. The second problem is they fee you to death on top of already healthy camping charges. Fees for showers, fees for guests, fees for early arrival, etc. They have set a check in time of 3 p. m. and, one Saturday, I watched at least ten vehicles arrive and get hit with these fees even though the park was two thirds empty. This is unfair and is nothing but a fee generation system. The third problem is garbage. We were here five days before they emptied the dumpster, and it smelled to high heaven. Finally, the store hours are totally unpredictable. Time after time, I watched people go to the store during the hours they were supposed to be open only to find the door locked. I would have given this park an 8 or a 9 but, with these problems, all I can give is a 5. Even having said all this, I must admit this park is still better than the nearby one in North Stonington. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped here for Easter. The campground is very nice, with large sites, good cable t.v., great water pressure and we had a nice view of the pond right behind us. Since it was Easter Weekend, the activities included egg coloring and a egg hunt for the kids. When we checked in we were informed that both were cancelled due to not enough kids. Instead my daughter received a small bag of candy on Sunday morning. Part of the reason we camp is because of the activities that the campgrounds offer. I checked their list of activities for the season and found that they do not offer much. We feel that because of that we would not like to go back to this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I was on a job in CT for one month. When the park was contacted originally cable and electricity were included in the package. When I arrived they had jacked up the monthly to 700 plus 25 for cable and your electricity charge. I assumed it was because they had a large number of arriving contractors. I didn't appreciate the rate change especially considering it was off season. There were two bathroom/shower houses. Without notice the one in the rear of the park was closed for the season in the middle of my stay with not even a note on the door. Additionally the bathrooms have no locks so good luck during showers. Showers also cost 25cents for approximately 5 minutes. I did not get my key deposit back because they closed before I pulled out. The payphone had a port to plug in your computer but you would have to have an 800 number (so the month cost me 129 for dial up toll free access) Overall the park was fine, the rate changes and diff in what was originally included versus it being a seperate put me off, friends of mine staying there were also charged an additional 25 dollars a day for a third person traveling with them. Most likely despite the convienence of it to my job site if I go back I will most likely stay somewhere else. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Sites were good sized and open. Bathrooms were very very clean. Owners very helpful. This was just a very comfortable place to stay to see the area and visit the casinos. We camped here in a camper.

This is a nice primitive campground. There is a mixture of large open fields and wooded areas. The sites in the loop that we stayed in were all paved and surrounded by grass. The kids could ride their bikes around the loop without too much worry of traffic. Easy access to dump station at park entrance. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice park with level paved sites. Only Crane and Egret loops were open and they had some trees but none that would give any real shade, the sites seemed fairly open. Sites are about 20 x 35 with just enough room to park the toad next to the RV (we have a 30 ft class A). Potable water was available at the dumpstation and dumpstation was easy to access. Nice home base for day trips to Mystic Seaport and the Mohegan Sun Casino. Park has a small beach not far from the campground. Only drawbacks are no electric and no pets. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We just returned from an 8 night stay at Rocky Neck State Park. We were quite pleased with the park generally but I should point out that it is our preference to camp at state/provincial parks because they typically are more natural and have a rustic flavour with lots of trees, hiking, etc. The campground offers both wooded and open sites. There are more open sites so if you want a heavily treed lot you should call ahead. I think the best wooded sites were from #1 to # 16 and 22 to 36 in the Osprey campground. If you are looking for open sites with only a few trees, the Crane, Egret and Heron campgrounds would be your best bet. Most of the sites are large. The campground was clean and well cared for. The only real drawback was the lack of electric sites (which many state/provincial parks now offer). The campground was usually reasonably quiet which was nice. The fact that dogs/pets are prohibited makes it even quieter (but would obviously be a problem for those of you who like to camp with your dog). The park staff are fairly vigilant about enforcing rules but I found some of the rules rather unusual. I never did figure out why they insisted that your truck/car must at all times be backed into the site driveway (and you will get a reminder notice on your windshield if you forget and park the other way). Also, I wish I had known in advance that they do not allow any ropes or lanterns or anything hanging from trees. We usually hang a clothes line and had to improvise for the beach towels etc. Many people brought wooden hanging racks which I would recommend. I read a review on another site that suggested that alcohol is prohibited but that in fact is not the case. The park beach is wonderful - very large with soft white sand but I should mention it is a very popular beach and is accordingly pretty crowded at times with day users. You can walk or bike to the beach from the campsites. There is lots of crabbing and fishing at the park. The crabs are plentiful and many people come to the park just to crab. We caught a few and barbequed them over the fire - an interesting first experience which the kids loved. The hiking trails are pretty good although not very long. The park is in a great location to launch day trips of New England which was an added bonus. We also took the train into New York City. Basically, as far as location goes, you couldn't find a better base for exploring and doing tourist stuff. One thing I found strange was the lack of places to buy fire wood which I've never really encountered in an area where camping is located. You're better off bringing your own. In summary, I would recommend Rocky Neck State Park if like us you do not require all of the amenities of a private park but are looking for a lovely natural area with a beautiful beach in a wonderful location that has much to offer for summer camping vacationers. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

If you do not mind dry camping this place is great, all roads are paved and sites have a paved drive, fire ring and large table, along with about 6,000+ sf of space per site. if you go with a small group and reserve three to four sites you can have a very large area for the kids. There are numerous marked walking trails and the beach can be walked to or you can drive or ride a bike. Bathrooms are cleaned every day with free hot showers, but can get buggy due to the lights, there is a dishwashing station at every bathroom. We camped here on the 4th of July and we were very surprised at how quiet it was for a holiday weekend, you could hear a pin drop at 9:30 pm every night. We camp here in a travel trailer as much as possible every year. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park is for the most part a very nice place. The sites are each set up with a 2 car wide asphalt pad. Some pads are surrounded by nice level grassy areas but others may be sloped and not suitable for putting up an awning. The restrooms were fairly clean and all of the fixtures worked in the loop we were in. The staff was friendly but not overly helpful. We had to wait until exactly 1PM to check in. The guy at the main gate just sat there until then looking at us. The beach is about a half mile away and is nice but they have too many rules!! No flotation devices, no balls, no frisbees, no boogie boards... They should just post a sign that says NO FUN ALLOWED!! The lifeguards spend their day blowing their whistles at little kids with beach balls and floaties!! This would be a nice place to stay at if it weren't for the fact that it is run by the State of Connecticut DEP which has no incentive to provide good service. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
