    Coastal campgrounds dominate the Westport Point, Massachusetts region, with Horseneck Beach State Reservation offering a premier beachfront camping experience. Accommodations throughout the area cater to both tent and RV campers, with many sites providing water, electric, and sewer hookups. The mix of established campgrounds extends into Rhode Island with options like Newport RV Park, Meadowlark Campground, and Fort Getty Campground all within 30 miles of Westport Point, creating a network of mixed-use camping facilities along the southern New England coast.

    Most campgrounds in the area operate seasonally from spring through fall, typically opening in April or May and closing in October. Horseneck Beach State Reservation, the closest major campground to Westport Point, runs from mid-May to mid-October. Sites at popular beach campgrounds tend to fill quickly, especially for weekend stays during summer months. Massachusetts campgrounds charge significantly higher rates for out-of-state visitors compared to residents. A visitor commented, "While we are still nursing a grudge over the ridiculous price gouging Massachusetts enforces on non-residents, I have to admit that the infrastructure of this campground is lovely."

    The proximity to beaches and ocean views represents the primary attraction for campers in the Westport Point area. Several visitors noted the ability to hear waves from their campsites as a highlight of their experience. Campgrounds in this coastal region generally feature open layouts with limited privacy between sites, especially at beachfront locations where vegetation is sparse. The landscape consists primarily of dunes and coastal scrub rather than forested sites. Many campers mentioned the weather conditions, particularly noting the steady winds coming off the water that can make evenings cooler than expected. Ticks were identified as a significant issue at some campgrounds, especially Horseneck Beach, where one reviewer reported: "The tick situation was just very difficult. We drowned ourselves in tick spray, but the ticks were overwhelming."

      Cedar Valley Heritage Farm

      Purely Present

      ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

      Cedar Valley Heritage Farm has become one of those places that keeps calling me back. The campsites are simple and peaceful, with plenty of room to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the beauty of the land. Nights are quiet, the stars are bright, and mornings often begin with birdsong and mist hanging over the fields.

      What I appreciate most is the feeling of being somewhere real. This isn't a crowded commercial campground—it's a working heritage farm with character, history, and a sense of care. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat, a place to gather around a campfire, or a basecamp for exploring the surrounding area, there's something special here.

      The atmosphere encourages you to unplug, breathe deeply, and remember that sometimes the best experiences are the simplest ones. If you enjoy nature, authenticity, and a slower pace, Cedar Valley Heritage Farm is well worth the visit.

      Would happily camp here again.

      Fishermens Memorial State Park Campground

      Would definitely come back!

      We stayed a week and really enjoyed it. There is lots to do in the area but we also loved hanging around our campsite in the afternoon which was quiet since everyone was gone for the day. There are two public beaches nearby that are a really big draw. 

      The campground is divided into four loops. Loops 1 and 2 are for RVs and have sewer, water, and electricity and have paved camping pads. Loop 3 is for tents only. Loop 4 is water and electric with gravel pads. There is nice grass around campsites but bring a patio mat because everyone has used one in the past which has killed the grass. In my opinion, the best sites are 70-73 with a water view and facing west for a nice sunset. Sites 53-65, 75-79 are alongside a busy road that is quite noisy and the sites are extremely unlevel. About half the sites are level so pay attention to "grade" when booking your site. 

      All loops have a bathhouse except for Area 1. The tent sites are in a separate loop and have a bathroom centrally located. Tent sites have nice grass, a paved parking area, fire pit and picnic table. Some offer more shade than others. There really are no hiking trails– just a¼-mile mowed path around one of the old bunkers (this was a military instillation in WWII and while you can’t go in them for safety reasons there are some interpretive panels with historical information). There are two tennis courts, basketball, horseshoes, and a playground. We loved the farmers market that is held in the park every Sunday. 

      Check-in requires a driver's license and proof of vehicle registration so make sure you bring it when registering in the office. Since many campers did not know this, it caused a line at registration and a long back-up of RVs checking in. The campground does not sell firewood but you can find it at a nearby convenient mart. There are two EV charging station but they are at the registration office which is not very close to campsites. 

      Two miles away is the little town of Galilee where there are restaurants, seafood markets (where you can buy live lobster right off the boat), and the ferry dock that takes you to Block Island. About 4 miles north of the campground is a much bigger town with lots of restaurants, groceries, Walmart, etc. Less than a mile away is Aunt Carries which has delicious ice cream. Within two miles are two public beaches (which are free but require a parking pass which is$12/day for non-residents or$60/season).

      Sun Outdoors Mystic

      Mixed feelings about the campground but love the area.

      We have stayed at this campground many times because we love the towns of Mystic and Stonington. The campground has changed hands many times and it seems things are always different. I’ll start off with the bad. At check-in, we were greeted by one of the rudest people we have encountered in fifteen years of full-time RVing. There is a page of rules but they don’t seem to be enforced– like dogs off leash and no fences at your campsite. There are seasonal campers that are proud to fly political flags but I suppose there are no rules against that. The park is a mix of seasonals (who seem to just come on weekends to party) and transients. There are lots of amenities (which we did not use) but still had to pay the$10/day resort fee which really drives up the cost. This is a Passport America park so we were able to get 50% off on our stay. The laundry was really dirty (including a wet, slippery floor) and very busy since there weren’t that many machines and some were broken. 

      As for the good. We had a long, level back-in site with lots of room on both sides of us. The grass was lush and nicely mowed (which our dog loved) and we had a nice shade tree. The utilities worked well but were placed at the back of the site and the water was a shared spigot on opposite side. Our water hose was long enough so I didn’t have to add another one to reach the spigot. There are no sewer sites but there are two dump stations available. 

      There is a hiking trail nearby (Hoffman Evergreen Presreve) that we like to visit and is great for dogs. The campground is very convenient to downtown Mystic, the aquarium, and Mystic Seaport Village. Our GPS routed us through the tiny town of Old Mystic which was really tricky to navigate. If you are in a big-rig, we suggest using the Cow Hill Road exit off I-95 and then HWY184 to the campground.

      Pinewood Lodge Campground

      Nice woodsy campsite with lots of amenities

      We visited in early June and really appreciated the shade at our site as the temps rose into the mid-80’s. There are lots of tall pine trees but are trimmed back and not a problem getting or big-rig through the park or in our site. We loved site 47 which was long and level with nice grass around it. The next site (46) was pretty close, but luckily nobody was in it while we visited. Our patio area was fairly large with no other sites next to it, just a road. We chose a 50A/water pull thru site and the electric was good at 124 volts on each leg. Honey wagon service is quite expensive at $35/pump out, or you can use the dump station for free. We used the campground cable tv and got about 60 stations, included the major stations (local news was out of Boston). This was a good thing since the trees blocked our Dish receiver from getting any channels. The wifi was 2.4G and just o.k. You could surf the internet but definitely not strong enough to stream.  I went to the lodge and got great wifi speed to download movies quickly. 

      The campground is gated and charges$15/day for visitors. There are lots of amenities. There is a good access to a small lake (with a canoe/kayak launch and rentals), fishing pier (for catch and release, no license required), ice cream stand, food truck, playground, a large dog park (with two runs), laundry, playground, horseshoes, etc. The campground is conveniently to the downtown Plymouth attractions (10 minutes) and a grocery store (2 miles).  

      The biggest downside was the dust since most of the roads are gravel. It was very dry during our visit and the dust was crazy. Another negative was the $5/day pet fee. There are restrictions as to where you can walk your pets in the campground and they are not allowed on the beach.  There is a good size dog park with two runs.  If you dog is afraid of gunshots, do not come here as there is a gun range nearby that is pretty loud.

      Peters Pond RV Resort

      Overpriced, mostly seasonal sites

      This park is mainly seasonal campers with a handful of transient sites. We were in a 50A, full hookup, pull thru that was plenty long enough for our 45’ motorhome and tow car. Other transient sites include shorter 30A sites and tent sites. (P9 is a really nice back-in site on the water and steps away from the beach, snack shack and bar.) 

      Our site was nicely shaded, level, and paved (as are all the roads). The utilities worked well and were located in the middle of the site.  The only negative was that the sewer was uphill and didn’t drain properly. Cable tv is included and we got about 60 channels. There was a wifi router right outside our window so the internet was good for surfing but not enough to stream. The campground was gated and you have a key card to get in.  

      This park has a lot of amenities– two beaches, pool, snack bar, bouncy pillow, basketball and baseball fields, snack bars, and scheduled activities.  The campground is located on Peters Pond but it is pretty small and not even large enough for me to want to blow up my paddleboard. That is great if you use them because you have to pay a$15/day resort fee. We used none of them so found the nightly price to be very high. Plus, the nightly rate for weekends is higher. We had a 25% discount code but our nightly weekend rate was still over$90/night. In my opinion the park could use some more attention as far as picking up trash, keeping grass around sites mowed, and cleaning the laundry facilities (which were pretty gross). We stayed in early June so the park was pretty quiet as kids were not out of school. But, I can imagine in the summer it gets really busy with as big as the park is. We were there over a weekend and it did get busier, and seemed everyone broke out their golf carts to ride around listening to music and drinking or entertaining their screaming kids.

      For the most part, it is big-rig friendly but, we did hit some trees and had to go out a different way to avoid low hanging branches. We probably would not stay again due to the price and our campsite was just o.k.

      Horseneck Beach State Reservation

      Beachside camping, but expensive for non-residents.

      This is a great oceanfront campground located behind the dunes of Buzzards Bay. We booked early since the park only has 100 sites and we wanted a 50A site (not all sites have electric so pay close attention when you book). Our campsite has a picnic table and fire pit and was paved with a sand patio. The electric was good with both legs above 120 volts. The bathhouse was clean and is situated in the middle of the campground. There is a dump station which is easily accessible. Roads are one-way but the sites are angled so backing in was easy. Water spigots scattered throughout the campground, and we were close enough to one that we could have filled our tank, if needed.  There is no shade and it can be quite windy.  Dogs are allowed on the beach at the campground which is a plus.  The sunsets were amazing.  There is a small playground for kids but the beach is the draw. 

      The nightly price for Massachusetts residents is a bargain at $28 but it jumps up over $70 for non-Massachusetts residents. The beach is cobblestone/sand and there is a nice paved walking path that runs parallel. The beach by the campground is very rocky but there is another day use area to the west which gets raked and they remove all the rocks, but can be very busy. There is another hiking trail (about 2 miles) that you can walk to from the campground that goes out on a spit of land where you can walk back along the sandy beach. The beach access is easy since there are mobility mats connecting the campground to the beach. 

      The closest grocery is approximately 10 minutes away and there are a couple of restaurants closer. We took a drive to New Bedford to see the Whaling Museum and the National Park Service site– both were worth the stop. All in all, we really liked our stay at Horseneck Reservation and would return.

      Fishermens Memorial State Park Campground

      One of our faves

      We love camping here. From the history of the area, to its proximity to the ocean, to the many places to explore, to the nice sites and clean bathrooms! We have been coming here for over a decade and enjoy every trip. We usually grab dinner at George's of Galilee, and have taken the ferry to Block Island as well. There are a bunch of old military defenses from WWII in Narragansett Bay, including one in the campground. We've tent and camper camped, and enjoyed both.

      George Washington State Campground

      Good location, average campground

      Our first time camping here, we were trying to get a more secluded spot, but the pics on ReserveAmerica were not the greatest gauge of the sites. The sites were OK, some better than others, we didn't have any amenities but there was potable water nearby. There are cabins, which are really just bunkhouses with 2 bunk beds. Each site has a fire pit and picnic table. Our loop had porta potties nearby, we only saw one real bathroom with flushing toilets and showers. We did go for a nice hike, the North/South Trail goes through the campground and there are many trails in the area as well. We did a 5+ mile loop and got a good sense of what the trails are like. Found some geocaches and our pups got a good workout.

    Guide to Westport Point

    Camping spots near Westport Point, Massachusetts center on coastal terrain less than 50 feet above sea level, creating distinctly windswept campsites with minimal natural windbreaks. The camping season typically runs late April through mid-October, with limited year-round options for RVs. Water temperatures at nearby beaches remain cool even in summer, rarely exceeding 70°F.

    What to do

    Beach exploration: 5 miles from Horseneck Beach State Reservation features rocky shoreline with excellent shell collecting opportunities. "The beach is small and quiet, and has some great shells and rocks. All in all, a quiet campground with the fundamentals," writes Lyssa M.

    Stargazing: Best in early June when skies are clear and crowds are minimal. "The area is very dark at night so if you are into stargazing, this is a great place to bring a telescope or a good camera to take some pictures. We woke in the middle of the morning to see the Milky Way in the sky above us quite clearly," notes Kyle C. from Horseneck Beach.

    Local vineyards: 15-minute drive from campgrounds to Westport Rivers Vineyard for wine tasting. "There is a lot to do in the area too. I recommend the MA Audubon park, Buzzards Bay Brewing, and Westport Rivers Vineyard," reports Jess G.

    Bird watching at nearby wetlands: Accessible trails from Fort Getty Campground connect to coastal viewing areas. "Beautiful location, rangers were nice," states Kimberly S., though she warns about potential noise from other campers.

    What campers like

    Waterfront locations: Water views at premium sites. "Sites along the beach are spectacular. Inland sites are very nice and have water/electric," explains Geoff R. about Horseneck Beach State Reservation.

    Easy beach access: Less than 5-minute walks to shorelines from most coastal campgrounds. "We loved being right on the beach. There are no hookups but water is easily acquired and there is a dumping station. We loved being able to hike for hours right from our campsite," reports Deborah D.

    Newport proximity: Within 20 minutes of Carr Point Recreation Facility, giving military families access to historic sites. "About 20 minutes to downtown Newport, so this made visiting the town easy. Given that its military only, you cant beat the price," notes Laura R.

    Well-maintained facilities: Recently renovated bathhouses at several campgrounds. "While the beach in the campground is very rocky it is a short walk to beautiful public beaches. I cant wait to return to this campsite," adds Deborah D. from Horseneck Beach.

    What you should know

    Dramatic price differences: Massachusetts state parks charge significantly higher fees for non-residents. At Massasoit State Park Campground, "Price of $20 for instate can't be beat," according to Geoff R., while non-residents pay more than double.

    Limited shade at beach sites: Most coastal camping areas feature minimal tree coverage. "Being a state park on the beach, there is little in the way of foliage so there is nothing between you and the next camp site to give you much privacy," Kyle C. explains about Horseneck Beach.

    Constant coastal winds: Evening temperatures drop considerably. "We stayed in early June and found both nights to be very cold with the constant wind coming off of the water so bring an extra blanket," advises Kyle C.

    Weekend reservation challenges: Most campgrounds fill completely during summer weekends. "Only downside is that the online reservation system requires a 2 night minimum, but calling the campground attendant can sometimes result in a one night reservation, especially early in the season," suggests Matt M.

    Tips for camping with families

    Dog-friendly beaches: Limited but available at Fort Getty Campground. "The private pet friendly beaches were great! Small but perfect to relax. No problems with the pets at all and old but clean bathrooms," reports Steve T.

    Playgrounds near water: Recently installed recreation areas at several parks. "Great campground. I used to come here all the time when I was a kid and was so excited when it opened back up," writes Tara A. about Massasoit State Park, adding that "The boys had a blast swimming and kayaking at the pond."

    Evening insect preparedness: Pack appropriate repellent, especially for coastal parks. "Bring a car if you are camping here in a motorhome," advises Justine I. about accessibility at Massasoit State Park.

    Cash payment requirements: Some smaller campgrounds don't accept credit cards. "They only accepted cash or check and it was a little pricey for the lack of amenities," notes Christy C. about Second Beach Family Campground.

    Tips from RVers

    Pull-through availability: Select sites at Melville Ponds Campground accommodate larger vehicles. "We got a great pull through full hookup with a 5 minute walk to a huge dog park. There are also a bunch of beautiful trails right from the park," mentions Ilana F.

    Sewer dump locations: Limited in the region, costing extra at some locations. "The closest sewer dump is not far, but they charge you $10," Laura R. points out about facilities near Carr Point.

    Strategic site selection: Not all campgrounds offer level sites. "Our site (F4) had 30 amp and water. Satellite reception (Dish TV) was good and we were able to get a number of air antenna channels. The section that we were in was very big rig-friendly and one site that can be used as a pull-thru," explains Nancy W. about Melville Ponds.

    Seasonal rates variation: Prices fluctuate significantly throughout the camping season. "The park is open from April 15th to November 15th. Prices vary depending on the season, if you have a weekly/monthly rate, and the type of hook-ups you want," adds Nancy W.
