Several RV parks operate within 30 miles of Newmarket, New Hampshire, providing various hookup options for motorhomes and travel trailers. Tuxbury Pond RV Campground in South Hampton features water, electric, and sewer hookups with sites open from April 28 to October 15. Seacoast Camping and RV Resort in North Hampton offers 50-amp full hookup sites, including some pull-through options for larger rigs. Sites at Mill Brook RV Park in Kingston accommodate big rigs with gravel back-in spaces that include water, electric, and sewer connections. The spacing between sites varies across these facilities, with most parks featuring closely positioned RVs, particularly during peak season. "The roads in the park are fairly narrow and we had to drive over the grass across from our site in order to back in. Lucky for us nobody was parked in that site," noted one RV owner about maneuvering at Seacoast.
Advance reservations are essential during summer months and fall foliage season when area campgrounds frequently reach capacity. Most parks offer dump stations and trash service, though amenities vary significantly between locations. Pine Acres Resort and Beach Rose RV Park both accommodate large motorhomes with 50-amp electrical service and full hookups, while Hidden Valley RV Park provides sewer connections but no sanitary dump facilities. Cell service strength fluctuates throughout the region, with most parks reporting adequate coverage for basic needs. Winter camping options are extremely limited, as nearly all RV parks in the area close between mid-October and late April. Pet policies differ between facilities, with some parks welcoming dogs while others maintain strict restrictions on animals or breeds.

LegendWinter 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.

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.

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.

What to do
Beach access: At Thousand Trails Moody Beach in Maine, the oceanfront location provides easy beach access about 35 minutes from Newmarket. "This spot is central to local spots in Ogunquit, ME or Wells, ME," notes one reviewer, with another mentioning it's "only a 15-minute walk" to reach the beach.
Golf outings: Hidden Valley RV and Golf Park in Derry combines camping with golfing on a 1,300-acre property. "The main attraction of this campground is the golf course of 9 or 18 holes. There is a pro shop, golf cart rentals, etc," reports a visitor. The facility includes "on site general store with grill" and both "fishing and swimming on property along with a club house."
Water activities: The area's lakes and ponds support numerous water sports, especially during warmer months. One visitor to Sandy Beach Campground noted the "sandy beach by the water has plenty of room to relax out in the sun as well as launch areas to set out in a paddle boat, canoe or row boat, all available on site."
What campers like
Entertainment options: Campgrounds often schedule events and activities, particularly on weekends. At Tuxbury Pond RV Campground, one camper encountered unexpected entertainment: "There was a gentleman that started setting up for a comedy show...the band was good & the stand up comedy was awesome. For the most part, the comedians kept it fairly clean."
Clean facilities: Many campgrounds maintain well-kept bathrooms and shower facilities. A visitor to Sun Outdoors Saco Old Orchard Beach found that "the bathrooms and grounds were very clean, activities were fun, the playground/pool was nice and the Maine blueberry pancakes were amazing!"
Proximity to attractions: Location is valued by campers seeking easy access to regional destinations. "This KOA is close to Old Orchard Beach, the city of Portland, and towns of Kennebunkport, Ogunquit, Wells and Kittery Outlets," reported one camper, emphasizing the convenience for day trips while maintaining a home base.
What you should know
Seasonal variations: Most campgrounds in the region operate from mid-April through mid-October. A camper at Seacoast Camping and RV Resort observed, "We were there in the off-season(May) and didn't have any neighbors so it was pretty quiet." Weather conditions vary significantly throughout the season.
Site spacing: Many campgrounds feature sites positioned close together, especially during peak season. One visitor noted, "Most of the grounds were dense- comprised primarily of RVs and various cabins. Though there were a few tent sites." Another mentioned, "The spacing between sites varies across these facilities, with most parks featuring closely positioned RVs."
Reservation requirements: Summer weekends and holiday periods typically require advance booking. A visitor to Sandy Beach Campground mentioned that while weekdays remain "quiet," activity "picks up over weekends but not to overbearing." Many campers recommend booking at least 2-3 months ahead for prime summer dates.
Tips for camping with families
Pool facilities: Swimming pools provide recreation when natural water isn't available or desired. At Wild Acres Sun RV Resort, one camper observed it "has walkable beach access, and the kids loved the heated pool." Another noted it was "a nicely shaded and quiet park, even with kids running around."
Playground access: Dedicated play areas help keep children entertained. One visitor mentioned, "There was a nice pool for the kiddos, as well as kayaks and water toys for the pond, which looks like a lake." Parents appreciate having on-site recreation options when not exploring the region.
Weekend activities: Many campgrounds schedule family-oriented events, particularly on weekends. A camper reported, "Great family friendly facility with a playground. Events and activities are run by management." Another noted, "Kid activities were done regularly. Pizza and breakfast is very good if you do lunch want to cook. Outdoor movies were fun."
Tips from RVers
Site selection: When booking RV sites, confirm specific dimensions and layout. One RV camper stated, "Our site (#124) was one of the new sites which they had just completed. It was a gravel back-in which was plenty long and level." Site selection becomes especially important for larger rigs.
Maneuvering challenges: Some campgrounds have limited space for turning larger vehicles. A camper described one challenge: "The roads in the park are fairly narrow and we had to drive over the grass across from our site in order to back in." Pre-arrival research about access roads helps prevent difficult situations.
Hookup configurations: RV sites offer various utility arrangements which can affect setup convenience. A reviewer noted one campground had "water and electric were between our site and the next on one side and sewer between our site and the one on the other side. This made it difficult to place our trailer on the slanted site and reach all services."
