Nice state park. Large sites mostly shaded that will accomodate any size camper. They have a camp store that is fairly well stocked. Close to the RI beaches. I have camped here for years and the only problem is they say no alcohol but almost every time we have gone here we have had to call the ranger because of drunks (dozens of times). Mostly Spanish is spoken here on the week end. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice State Park with pond for boating,fishing and close to RI beaches. NO FACILITIES here and the bathrooms are nearly 3rd world. It has a camp store, playground and a nice area to bike around. Sites are large with fire pits. Spanish is mostly spoken here. The week ends can take on a Cinco de Mayo atmosphere. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
If you like the water, you just can't beat this place. There are zero hookups but our Verizon cells and broadband worked extremely well. The restrooms are all new. No showers or anything else. It is still location, location, location here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
If you dry camp it is a good place to be on the beach. The sites are crazy tight though. It took me some great effort to park and I have been doing this for a while now. The place is awesome, but the state should invest in new bathrooms. There was a sign that said "Not for Human Consumption" in the bathroom. They could also provide showers and drinking water. You have to travel to Burlingame State Park for Water & Showers...both very nice there. I would go back just because of the fishing & calming. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
First let me tell you it's a DRY CAMPGROUND. Only self contained units, no popups. Almost like camping in a parking lot. We camped in our 30 foot travel trailer we a group of about 7 or 8 other campers. Sites are very small, not made for todays' large rigs. Many in the group had issues backing in the sites. The ocean is right there and the breachway was sweet. Great for kayaking and we even went claming. This was the 1st year the park went through Reserve America which was easy, but you have to reserve 12 months ahead of time. We already booked for next year (July 09). The rest rooms are just toilets and was in need a a good cleaning. NO alcohol at all. They booted a group from one site. Seems a little to stricked, but it's the rules. The area was policed by the RI DEP. All in all. It was a nice 4 days. Wish they would make the sites larger. That would reduce the number of sites, but it is needed. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Basically this is parking lot for RV's on the water. Great view with swimming, fishing kayaking, boating, and digging for clams. Dry camping of course, but not that bad. No showers make it difficult to clean up after being at the beach, however, you can drive to another State park to shower. All in all, pretty cool place to check out. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Location, location, location. This place is right on the ocean and breachway. Self contained units only, so it is a great place to put your RV to its full use. We also spent 10 nights here in May. 7 nights is the limit, but managers discretion for additional nights and that was pre season. RI is going to a reservation system so next year it will be tough to get a site on weekends. Now you just showup during the week and your in. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great location- view of channel, but not the ocean due to sand dune and public parking lot. Tightly packed campground. Do not try to get a space here on a Friday or Saturday. Locals said best time to arrive is on a Wednesday. We camped in a 40' Bluebird and had to ask a few patrons to move their vehicles so that we could squeeze in. No reservations are available here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I really don’t want anyone to know about this campground because you can usually drive up and get a site, but it is a gem with no services. This is a state campground for RV’s only in a parking lot next to a beach looking out on the Atlantic Ocean, and an inlet where one can canoe. Some sites lookout on to the breachway where one can watch the fishermen and the other sites are in rows in the back. You can ride your bike around this area and there are also restaurants close by for seafood. There are only 75 sites here with a bathroom but no showers. It is on the beach and looking out to Block Island Sound. It is beautiful and peaceful. There are no reservations just first come first serve and the maximum stay is one week. The season runs from April 15 to Oct 31 and rates are with no services $14 for residents and $20 for non-residents with extra charges for additional cars. This campground is south of route 1 in southern RI in the town of Charlestown. For those with tents or if you want more services there is another RI State Park that offers camping and swimming -Burlington State Park just north of route1 in the same area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
