    Blydenburgh County Park

    Big Rig Camping in Blydenburgh

    We have a 42 ft 5th wheel toy hauler. A few Big Rig spots are available, but this is a Suffock Co Campground that is not well maintained. 2 miles of the Road have many areas of missing blacktop making a very rough ride with low branches. The dump station is basically not accessible to a big rig. Most of the longer sites were very difficult to level.

    Indian Island County Park

    Great location, beautiful views

    Wonderful weekend visit in the off season. Site was level, pretty spacious and easy to back into. Campsites are located close enough to the beach/marsh. Multiple playgrounds for the kids although they were closed due to Covid. No sewers sites that I could tell, and water was off because we were a week shy of the season opening. Needed to move to dump station prior to leaving (2 night visit) and had to drive to fill the fresh water tank once while there. Nice neighbors. Dog friendly. People obeyed the quiet hours. I have not one complaint. There were hiking trails and geocaching on site. 4 stars bc no sewer at the campsite and we like full hook ups and honestly I’m guessing this is a county rule but the playgrounds could’ve been open. Outside and socially distanced after dealing with Covid for a whole year and most local parks and playgrounds being open since last May... that was upsetting. All in all we had a great weekend. Close to the LI aquarium as well! Many stores and a golf course near by too!

    Black Rock State Park Campground

    A nice family friendly campground

    This is a nice family friendly campground that makes for easy trips. There are a variety of sites available, from open field sites to more wooded and private areas. The campground also has a lake for swimming,trails for hiking, and some nice quiet areas for fishing. Well maintained bathrooms, with available showers, are also spread throughout the grounds. Not pet friendly unfortunately.

    Heckscher State Park Campground

    Great Late Fall Weekend Cabin

    This was a last-minute booking for us and we were delighted with the beachside cottage, with enough amenities that mom and dad did not worry we had their cutie with us for "camping". She's too little for backpacking into the woods but finally got to stay overnight and help with the campfire!

    Pros

    • Modern facility with full kitchen accessories (coffee maker, plates, wine opener, can opener, silverware, pots, pans, cooking utensils, toaster, oven), sponge/dish liquid. Microwave.1
    • Clean interior, clean campground
    • modern cottage with propane fireplace, WiFi access, bathroom with shower, large screened in porch with bar height table and 4 chairs, deck with chaise lounges, two bedrooms (1 with 2 twin beds, 1 with full), coach, chairs, plenty of clean storage places and hooks. You have everything but bedding, food, drinks, and personal items.
    • cottages far enough away from each other
    • fire ring with Adirondack chairs
    • dumpster and recycling within walking distance
    • lots of bone dry firewood around for campfire
    • walkable beach
    • beautiful
    • wildlife: deer, rabbits, turtles

    Cons

    • a bit pricey
    • playground is driving distance not walking

    Beaver Pond Campground — Harriman State Park

    Quiet, off-season, mid-week retreat

    We stayed here on a Thursday night in September prior to taking off backpacking. The campground was clean and quiet. RV hook-ups, tent platforms, and rustic tent sites were available. Our rustic tent site had a few good options for pitching a tent, as well as picnic table and fire ring.

    Ranger said that during summer weekends the grounds fill up and can be quite noisy, but mid-week during the off-season it was great. Expect to purchase firewood, although scrounging for kindling was possible. Facilities were clean and what you'd expect from a campground.

    Would definitely return!!

    Wildwood State Park Campground

    Camper side review

    Stayed here for two nights with my popup and was surrounded by large motor homes/RVs. sites had zero privacy and were all pull through. There was water, electric and sewer hookups at each site, but this was an expensive place to ‘camp’. Bathrooms and showers were not really clean, which was surprising because most people used their personal bathroom/shower in their RV. It is close to the beach, but a very small and rocky beach. Overall, I don’t think this was the best place for us.

    Wildwood State Park Campground

    Close to the beach and clean facility

    This is a popular site in the peak season. The beach is in a walking distance. You can swim or fish there. This camp site has a relatively new and clean facility.

    There are many farms near by where you can get fresh veggies and fruits.

    Have stayed here several times - great location and nice, full hook-up sites. Back-in and pull through sites and can accommodate large rigs. A little expensive but everything is included.


Guide to Old Greenwich

Camping options near Old Greenwich, Connecticut range from secluded forest settings to waterfront locations along the Hudson River. The region experiences seasonal camping availability with most parks open from late April through October, though several remain operational year-round. Ground conditions vary significantly with terrain ranging from grassy riverside areas to wooded settings with established platforms for tents.

What to do

Swimming at local beaches: Kettletown State Park Campground offers a swimming area on the premises, though water quality can vary seasonally. "The beach is closed after Labor Day to the public, but open to people staying at the campsite. Clean and beautiful," notes a camper who visited in September.

Hiking woodland trails: The region features numerous hiking options, from short loops to more challenging terrain. "The 1.5 mile Pelton Pond hike loop" at Clarence Fahnestock State Park Campground is easily accessible from several campsites. Another visitor mentions, "Great hikes. The shorter hiking trails in the area were really beautiful."

Urban exploration: Many campgrounds serve as convenient bases for city visits. At Liberty Harbor RV Park, "The light rail is a block away, and the path train is about 8. Having a view of Lady Liberty out your window is priceless," according to a frequent visitor who uses it as a hub for Manhattan trips.

What campers like

Access to NYC transit: Liberty Harbor RV Park stands out for its metropolitan access options. "There is a ferry 100-yards away that takes you to Wall Street M-F. There is a great market about 1/4 of a mile away, and the path that can take you to WTC or 33rd Street area is only a mile away," writes one reviewer.

Secluded wooded sites: Many campers appreciate the privacy available at certain parks. A visitor to Beaver Pond Campground noted, "The biggest positive about Beaver Pond is how spread out it was. You definitely feel like you have your own space and are not camping on top of your neighbor."

Wildlife viewing: Multiple campgrounds offer opportunities to observe local animals. "At dusk when the animals came out!" was noted as the highlight by a camper at Black Bear RV Park, while others mentioned deer sightings throughout Harriman State Park.

What you should know

Seasonal closures: Many campgrounds operate on limited schedules. Clarence Fahnestock State Park Campground runs from April 15 to December 4, while Kettletown State Park operates from May 26 to September 4.

Site variability: Campgrounds often feature dramatically different site qualities within the same facility. "All sites were so different. There was a storm the night before our arrival date, all campers were evacuated and they did a fantastic job clearing all the debris and downed trees before our arrival."

Wildlife encounters: Multiple campgrounds report active wildlife. At Croton Point Park, campers are advised to "Keep your food in the dry bag and away from the tent or benches provided or face the packs of fearless racoons at night."
