    Add dates

    RV parks near Dover provide various options for larger vehicles. Tuxbury Pond RV Campground in South Hampton offers full hookup sites with water, electric, and sewer connections from late April through mid-October. Pine Acres Resort in Raymond accommodates big rigs with 50-amp service on gravel sites, while Seacoast Camping and RV Resort in North Hampton features full hookups with level gravel pads suitable for various RV sizes. Several parks maintain pull-through rv pads for easier access, though site spacing varies considerably between locations. "Our site was large with full hookups and the area was very clean, some sites in other sections are closer together," noted one visitor about their experience at Tuxbury Pond.

    Advance reservations are strongly recommended, particularly during peak fall foliage season when availability becomes limited. Many campgrounds in the region operate seasonally, typically closing between mid-October and late April. Pull-through sites accommodate larger motorhomes but may require early booking. Cell service varies significantly between parks, with several reviews mentioning poor connectivity at Tuxbury Pond RV Campground. Most full hookup rv sites include sanitary dump stations, though a few parks may charge additional fees for this service. Pet policies differ between facilities, with most allowing dogs but enforcing leash requirements. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, road conditions within some parks present challenges—one visitor mentioned "muddy pot holes on every road" at Tuxbury Pond, suggesting travelers with larger rigs should call ahead for current conditions.

      Winter Island Park

      Basically a parking lot but with great views!

      I’m not going to lie this was a little tricky for big rigs to get to, but with lots of patience and skillful driving, it is doable. Salem is an old New England town so there are many narrow streets and some low clearances. Follow the directions on the parks website as they are designed for RVs– don’t use Google Maps unless you are a small camper. Even getting into the park is kind of challenging because of the way the entrance is laid out with the entrance booth and some low hanging trees. This campground is in a municipal park with a marina, beach, a short walking trail, and picnic areas. The campground has different sections and totally different feels to them. We arrived on a weekend and section we were in the section which is in the parking lot of a busy marina. The parking lot was half full which made for navigating our 45’ bus into our site pretty hard. 

      No sites have fire pits but you can have a fire if you bring your own above ground pit. Tent sites have picnic tables but nothing else. Some sites you can drive to and have a car onsite and others are non-vehicle access sites (11, 17, 18, 25, 26, 27& 38) in which you have to park in a parking lot. Some RV sites have great water views and others are in a back gravel lot. In my opinion, the best RV sites are 12-16(A-D) because they have a water view. Sites 16B-D are a little tricky for big-rigs to get into because of the tight space. Our site (#13) had a slight downhill slope. We pulled in forward so we could have a view of the harbor which meant the utilities (water electric only) were in the front of our site but we were able to reach without an extension cord. We loved watching the action in the harbor. There is a gazebo by the water which we enjoyed siting under and watching boats go in and out of the harbor while it rained. 

      There is a nice sandy beach onsite which attracts a lot of day use vistors. The grounds are interesting to walk around as the water views are nice and there is an old fort to explore. Nearby town of Salem Willows is(about½ mile away) is a cute old seaside town with restaurants and arcades. They have a Bluebike rental station which is an easy way to get downtown and explore the area if you don’t have a car.

      Bearcamp River Campground

      Bearcamp River Campground

      Bear camp River campground is a great place to camp for a weekend or be a seasonal. You can walk 6/10 of a mile to the covered bridge nearby and float right down to the beach at the campground or you can start on one side of the campground and float to the other via river for a good 30 minute float!! You get to Camp right on the Riverside. Owners (Mike and Tabby ) are great. Good place for the kids to run around and explore. The Camp store has sweatshirts and sweatpants , candy and snacks ,s’mores kits, and much much more.  They also  sell wood and ice on site. There is also hot showers for free, and bathrooms. Two thumbs up from this happy camper.

      Sea-Vu West Premier RV Resort

      Pleasantly surprised.

      This campground is mostly seasonal, privately owned park models, but has 45 spaces for RV’s. I was a little skeptical about staying at this campground with so many park models and seasonals but was pleasantly surprised at how nice, clean, and tidy all the sites were. They obviously take pride in how things look because the grounds and campsites were very well-kept. 

      All campsites are 50/30-amp full hook-up with level gravel pads with grassy patios, a picnic table, and fire pit. We stayed in site#702 which was long enough for our 45’ motorhome and tow car. All the utilities were easy to reach and the electric worked well. The only problem was that we were parked under a large oak tree that was profusely shedding large acorns. There are some sites that are in the open which I would definitely choose, if I came back in the fall. The campground is gated which is a nice feature. It is located a mile or so off Route 1 which means you don’t get the road noise and traffic, but still conveniently located near shops and restaurants. 

      One nice feature are the shaded walking trails in the park. While they are not super long, it is a nice change from walking the roads (which are paved). Other amenities include a decent size swimming pool (closed while we were there), a basketball court, playground, laundry, and camp store.  I thought it was a little expensive at $75/night (for full hook-up) at the end of the season, especially since the pool was closed.

      Sun Outdoors Wells Beach

      Tight sites and expensive, busy area along the Maine coast

      We stopped here in the summer to check out the coastal towns in southern Maine. There are many campgrounds in the area and we chose this one because they had a 25% off coupon (on a 7-night stay) which gave us the best nightly price in the area. However, the nightly rate was still$74/night, one reason being they charge a “resort fee” of$15/day which is ridiculous. This is a typical resort-style campground with lots of amenities (most of which we never use). But, for some people, this is a destination campground because of all the amenities- a large heated swimming pool, basketball courts, sand volleyball, bocce, fitness center, two playgrounds, 18-hole minigolf (that you pay extra for), and more. 

      The campsites in the front of the park are sandwiched between the swimming pool and Route 1 which is very busy and noisy. Campsites in the far back portion of the campground are shaded and a much quieter section. Camping pads and patios are a mix of gravel and sand. Many sites have shade and some have an astroturf patio (I think those are “premium” sites). Our campsite was in the middle section which was fairly quiet but the sites are close together with no privacy. The site was a long and level pull thru with a gravel pad and gravel/sand patio. All sites have a picnic table and fire pit. 

      There is a tent-only section and they have renal cabins. There is lots to do for families in the area including the beach and amusement and water parks. Restaurants of all sorts are nearby. You can easily walk to Congdon’s Donuts which is a Maine classic.

      Seacoast Camping and RV Resort

      Nice Campground, Love the area!

      This is a nice, clean, well-maintained campground for RV and tenting. The campground is located on Route 1 which means you are convenient to a lot of things but there is lots of traffic. Half the campground is seasonal/long term campers and the other side is mostly transients. The roads and campsites are fine crushed gravel with nice grassy patios. The campground is very well maintained (the best part being that the mower collects they cut the grass so no clippings get tracked in your camper). There are some mature trees that provide shade but don’t impede navigating in and out of sites or impacting slide outs. 

      Campsites range from tent with water/electric to RV water/electric and RV full hook-up 50-amp and full hook-up 30-amp. There are three bathhouses on the property (one of which has a dishwashing sink) and laundry. Tent sites 50-55 are in an are set away from RV sites and more private. They are also close to a large bathhouse with multiple toilets and showers. Tent sites 90-100 are across from a large playground which can be quite chaotic, but if you have kids, this is a great spot. 

      Our site (#147) was a long pull-thru with a descent amount of space between our neighbors. We got about half a dozen over-the-air channels (one being a major network station) and were able to connect with eastern arc satellites with our Dish Satellite. The 50A electric was good as was the water pressure. 

      The campground does not have much in the way of amenities except for a game room, basketball court, and playground. The game room is pretty cool with lots of arcade-style games, a pool table, foosball, and table tennis. While we were there, they just finished putting in all new playground equipment and enlarged the size making it really big and a hit with the kids in the park. Once convenience is that maintenance picks up garbage at your site (between 8am– 3pm). Unfortunately, people leave them out after hours and animals got into them and scattered garbage everywhere.  We've stayed here before and always enjoy being in the area as it is close to the fun cities of Portsmouth and Newburyport.

      Hampton Beach State Park Campground

      Oceanfront camping at its best—full hookups just steps from the beach. Located in popular Hampton Beach, you'll be close to nightly bandshell concerts and vibrant nightlife. There is a lottery system in place for stays during the summer.

    Guide to Dover

    Family-friendly RV sites near Dover, New Hampshire provide convenient access to the coastal region. Located in southeastern New Hampshire, Dover sits just 12 miles from the Atlantic coastline at about 30 feet above sea level. The area experiences four distinct seasons with humid summers reaching the mid-80s and winters dropping below freezing, affecting campground opening dates and seasonal policies.

    What to do

    Beach access options: Thousand Trails Moody Beach offers proximity to southern Maine beaches with convenient transportation. "The beach is a short 15-minute walk. For children, there is a swimming pool, a basketball court and a small playground," notes a recent visitor.

    Fishing opportunities: Local ponds and waterways provide fishing spots for campers. At Sandy Beach Campground, "the sandy beach is nice but the swimming area is quite weedy," reports one camper, though the site provides "launch areas to set out in a paddle boat, canoe or row boat, all available on site."

    Entertainment options: Many campgrounds schedule regular activities and performances. One camper at Tuxbury Pond RV Campground mentioned, "There was a large canopy tent set up right in between us & the bathrooms that we were now much closer to & there was a band setting up for their afternoon show. The live band was cool."

    What campers like

    Clean facilities: Campground cleanliness ranks high in visitor satisfaction. At Sun Outdoors Saco Old Orchard Beach, campers appreciate the "clean bathrooms and grounds" with one reviewer noting, "The bathrooms and grounds were very clean, facilities were clean."

    Swimming options: On-site pools provide alternatives to beach swimming. At Cole's Mine RV Resort, visitors enjoy "one amazing pool" with a visitor commenting, "This place is well payed out and very well taken care of. The pool is heated and has an amazing water slide and themed."

    Seasonal atmosphere: The region offers different experiences throughout camping season. "We love going in the fall to enjoy the leaves and sit in the hot tubs. The location is close to OOB and easy to get around," noted a camper at Wild Acres Sun RV Resort about autumn visits.

    What you should know

    Site spacing varies: Many campgrounds feature tightly arranged sites. At Wild Acres Sun RV Resort, visitors should prepare for proximity to neighbors as "sites are close together" and "this is not the place" if "you like privacy and more of a camping experience."

    Reservation planning: Early booking remains essential for prime spots. "Advance reservations are strongly recommended for weekend stays during summer months," a campground manager advised.

    Noise levels: Campground noise varies significantly by location and day of week. "Quiet during the weekdays, picks up over weekends but not too overbearing," reports a Sandy Beach Campground visitor, while another camper at Wild Acres noted weekend stays were "crazy busy. A little too much."

    Tips for camping with families

    Playground access: Family-oriented campgrounds offer dedicated play areas. "Great campground, clean bathrooms, clean grounds, gated campground with card key access in/out of the grounds, 2 pools, pavilion, activities/entertainment, fairly quiet during quiet hours, laundromat, playground, dog park," reported a Tuxbury Pond visitor.

    Kid-friendly activities: Scheduled events keep younger campers entertained. A Cole's Mine RV Resort visitor shared, "This place is perfect for small families or parents of younger kids. 2 amazing playgrounds, clean facilities and one amazing pool."

    Safety considerations: Gated campgrounds provide security for families. "Gated campground with card key access in/out of the grounds" was highlighted as a positive feature at Tuxbury Pond RV Campground.

    Tips from RVers

    Site surface variations: RV pads differ between campgrounds. Beach Rose RV Park provides "level concrete pad full hookups," though "sites close together but quiet," according to a recent visitor.

    Campground layout navigation: Some parks feature unusual site arrangements. At Thousand Trails Moody Beach, "The 30 amp sites are very close together. The campground layout is quite unusual, with campers parked lengthwise along the road."

    Cell service reliability: Digital connectivity varies between locations. At Wild Acres Sun RV Resort, "Wifi not great and we have starlink - lots of obstruction so if you need uninterrupted access I'd check with the front desk to see if there are clearer areas for your satellite."
