As woods lovers, we never thought we would like this... but - consider it! If you like the beach! Yes, the sand in the tent sucks... however, the sun, sand, and water are awesome if you like that sort of thing! Plus, GH State Park has access to a great boardwalk to stroll and a downtown with restaurants, ice cream/fudge, breweries, and shopping! They have a farmers market too!

During normal years (non pandemic), the musical fountain is a nightly draw -/ is the Coast Guard Festival with its parades, special events, and fireworks!

COVID-19 info: the Main Street is a one way as half of it has been blocked off for more outside seating!!! (Love the outside!). The beach is “iffy” about social distancing... The musical Fountain, parades, and festivals are not happening; yet, this is still a cool place if you like beaches.

Cons: sites are Way too close, a lot of people.

Oof! One thing to note: you MUST BRING your own fire pit that sits above the ground and has a cover! We didn’t know this. Luckily, we found one at a local big box store for about $60... but, yes, it was $60 extra that we didn’t plan on nor did we need the item in the future (gave it to one of our kids).

Helpful hint: sites book up 6 months in advance. Cancellation has to happen 14 days before the reservation starts, so you can often book a site (from someone who cancelled) when you start checking daily between 30-15 days out.
