ScoutFriendly staff and very clean facilities. They have sites with sewage hookups along with water and electric. Sites are small and very close together. I liked how many dog waste receptacles were available all over the property.
TravelerWhen I arrived, I discovered this site they reserve for me was not level, and the picnic table was blocking access to the electric. When I asked the office for help, I was told maintenance had already left around 4 o’clock, and nobody could help me. I was offered a different side if I wanted to pay the extra price. I managed to wrestle the table out of the way and made it work. But the Wi-Fi was worthless.
TravelerGood place to come for Halloween trick-or-treating for kids, lots of activities to keep you busy
ScoutNothing fancy, great for us as a stop along the way. Large, open gravel space surrounded by boats. Cute in-ground pool just closed for the season, great washroom & showers. A bunch of restaurants around the corner - highly recommend The Waffle Company. Dump station at the waste treatment plant 5 minutes away, no charge, very helpful staff, tight quarters, choose your route carefully if your rig is >13 ft - bridges.
RangerEnjoyed our stay at this campground for a weekend in mid September. We booked for a good rate using Campspot and it was well worth the money. Our site was wide and had some bushes adding privacy from some nearby RVs. The campground was quiet and had several nice amenities, like a store, laundry, dog park, playground, pool, basketball court, and more. It was close to Olde Mystic and plenty of other nearby attractions.
GuideSites are rocky and not the most level. Fairly private. No water elec or sewer @ sites. Water spigot spread throughout the park. 2 nice sewer dumps. 1 in the middle of the park and 1 on your way out. Decent beaches. Pretty nice playground. Horrible arcade. The camp store is awesome. Everything you need. They are doing alot of work updating the park and it shows. New bath houses are really nice. We have gone 3 times this year. Good family campground
TravelerWe booked this campground, as well as 2 others, to see how we liked them to visit our daughter and granddaughter. We are in section 2, site 016. Small site, did not get level. Beautiful beaches and homes in the area.
ScoutI do not recommend staying at this campsite. As you can't drive to the Campsite, as you have to come on a kayak or canoe.
TravelerOverall a superb spot to either stay put and enjoy the camp, park and beach or to use as a base to explore the region. Huge campground, yet peaceful. Online map would make it seem spaces are tight but it is a very big area and so ample room to stretch out your space. Not a lot of privacy as most spaces are out in the open or light tree area but it is not an invasive feeling situation. Very popular for CT families with biking, walking and the beautiful beach right here. Lots of grass, level sites. A few sites have electric but not many and this seems to be the big rig area. Most people are tent or small camper setups. Bathrooms clean, hot water reasonable temp. Dish washing stations at each restroom. Movies at night (kids). The state park is really pretty and well maintained. The area towns are very pretty and remarkably quiet in general (not many tourist traps) and its easy to access various shoreline parks, drives, viewpoints. I'd avoid the spots very nearest the park road as it does get a lot of day visitors to the park/beach. I'm here late August and schools go back this week so midweek the campground is less than half full but I believe it will fill for the weekend.

Reservation timing: Campgrounds with cabin accommodations typically fill months ahead, especially Hither Hills. "Need to reserve about 1 year in advance when I went to reserve it," warns one camper. Most parks release reservation blocks 6-9 months prior to peak season dates.
Campsite privacy levels: North Fork Cottages & RV Resort offers varying degrees of site separation. "The sites were exactly what we needed. Grassy and flat for our tent. Easy access to water and electric," reports a North Fork Cottages & RV Resort visitor. Cabin sites typically offer more privacy than tent areas due to structural barriers and vegetation.

North shore beaches tend to have rockier terrain than south shore locations, necessitating water shoes for comfortable swimming.
Noise considerations: Cedar Point County Park maintains varying enforcement of quiet hours. "A couple of times we had loud neighbors and it seemed that the ranger was out for lunch so nobody was making sure that quiet hours were enforced," reports one camper. Weekend evenings typically experience more ambient noise, with weekday stays recommended for families seeking quieter conditions.
Hookup availability: Wildwood State Park offers RV-specific amenities. "There was water, electric and sewer hookups at each site, but this was an expensive place to camp," notes a visitor.

Level sites: Indian Island County Park provides prepared RV parking. "Site was level, pretty spacious and easy to back into.

Water fill stations: Hammonasset State Park maintains central water access points. "The camp sites don't have hook ups so you have to run off battery and water storage tanks if you have an RV," mentions a camper. Central water stations typically allow hose connections during designated hours, with restrictions during peak usage periods to maintain pressure.
