About

Where you can easily WALK TO THE BEACH Relax in the peace & quiet of one of the most picturesque campgrounds on all of Cape Cod. Conveniently only a half-mile from beautiful Head of the Meadow Ocean Beach near the tip of Cape Cod.

We proudly strive to provide guests with a clean, quiet vacation option for camping near some of Cape Cod’s best beaches. We remain one of the few campgrounds on Cape Cod that are focused on creating a more “natural” camping experience, located within easy walk to Head of the Meadow Beach in scenic North Truro. Our campground is set among the famously twisted pitch pine trees, completely surrounded by the Cape Cod National Seashore Park. We are more oriented toward tent camping than most campgrounds these days, however, we also provide some campsites that can accommodate some smaller tent trailers, camper vans and even a few small trailers and RVs under 24 feet.
In the interest of creating a peaceful and relaxing camping environment we ask guests to be respectful of one another by following our evening Quiet Hours, and leaving their pets, generators, and motorcycles at home. We have only a few full-season campsites that have electricity and water, making us a more ideal fit for tenters, backpackers, and anyone looking for a more simple camping experience. We are less about “glamping” and more about enjoying the natural wonder of Cape Cod. Even though we do not provide electric and water hookups on our non-seasonal campsites, instead we provide access to free charging stations for your essential personal electronics items, such as cell phones, laptops and tablets. We also provide free Wi-Fi access for guests throughout much of Area 1, including in our large recreation hall, around our playground and outdoor picnic areas, and and in our adult quiet room where guests can comfortably use their laptops and phones to work on emails or remote work. Of course we also have centrally located water spigots for excellent drinking water throughout the campground and maintain clean restrooms, showers, and laundry facilities for our guests as well as a convenient camp store for food and camping necessities that is open much of the season.

Great beach-adjacent campground!

Great campground with a fantastically short walk to the beach. We were assigned an awesome private tent spot near the back of the campsite with plenty of space for our tent, hammocks, and car. Surrounded by woods on 3 sides and really quiet. Staff were super nice and helpful, and the camp store stocked with anything you’d need. If we visit in summer again, we’ll plan ahead with more bug deterrents because the mosquitos were BAD even with bug spray.

Lovely campground in the National seashore

We loved staying here during our August girls weekend trip! Short walk to a beautiful ocean beach in the National seashore. Bummer about no fires but understandable given the protected area

Amazing beachside camping

A cozy little spot in the pitch pines right by what my kids called “white shark beach.” Walk to the beach or drive 10 minute to a beautiful array of beaches on the most remote area of Cape Cod. The camp store is straight outta the nineties with tables to carve your sweethearts name into, foos ball and ping pong! Showers are coin opp. Bathrooms clean. Bunch of loveable barefoot hippies in the woods. No fires so you just smell the fresh ocean air. You can have a fire on the beach. We love it here!!
