Best RV Parks & Resorts near Montauk, NY

Hither Hills State Park Campground offers RV sites with electric and water hookups near Montauk's shoreline, accommodating motorhomes up to 40 feet long on level pull-through sites. North Fork Cottages & RV Resort provides full hookup sites with 50-amp service and sewer connections for larger rigs. "Our site was level, pretty spacious and easy to back into," noted one visitor about camping in the area, highlighting the accessibility for standard-sized travel trailers. Cedar Point Glamping in East Hampton features electric hookups with both 30-amp and 50-amp service options, while Aces High RV Park in East Lyme, Connecticut offers concrete pad sites with full hookups approximately 45 minutes from Montauk.

During summer months, reservation windows open months in advance for prime oceanfront RV spots, with Hither Hills typically booking completely by early spring. Cell service varies significantly between parks, with some campers reporting "total dead zones" in certain areas of Hither Hills while others maintain reliable connectivity. Most RV parks in the region remain open from April through October, with limited winter camping options. Dump stations are available at several locations, though not all sites offer sewer hookups at individual pads. Generator hours are restricted at state parks, making hookup sites more desirable for air conditioning during hot summer days. Many campgrounds accommodate pets with designated dog areas, though some beaches maintain seasonal restrictions for dogs.

    Indian Island County Park

    Great location, beautiful views

    Wonderful weekend visit in the off season. Site was level, pretty spacious and easy to back into. Campsites are located close enough to the beach/marsh. Multiple playgrounds for the kids although they were closed due to Covid. No sewers sites that I could tell, and water was off because we were a week shy of the season opening. Needed to move to dump station prior to leaving (2 night visit) and had to drive to fill the fresh water tank once while there. Nice neighbors. Dog friendly. People obeyed the quiet hours. I have not one complaint. There were hiking trails and geocaching on site. 4 stars bc no sewer at the campsite and we like full hook ups and honestly I’m guessing this is a county rule but the playgrounds could’ve been open. Outside and socially distanced after dealing with Covid for a whole year and most local parks and playgrounds being open since last May... that was upsetting. All in all we had a great weekend. Close to the LI aquarium as well! Many stores and a golf course near by too!

    Mystic KOA

    Great campground for coastal CT & RI

    We stayed at Mystic KOA in North Stonington, Connecticut, to be tourists in Mystic. Spoiler alert… we had a great stay! 

    This campground is just 15-minutes from Mystic and about an hour’s drive to Newport, Rhode Island. It’s just a few minutes from I-95 and so close to Mystic Aquarium, downtown Mystic, Mystic Seaport, and all the local spots. 

    It’s a well-maintained campground with 2 pools(though the larger one was closed for maintenance during our stay), lots of play areas and daily activities for little ones, and a cool“pub truck” for adult drinks. Our site(#408) was about 85’ long with plenty of room for our 45’ motorhome and toad(and then some!). It was level and gravel with a nice fire ring and picnic table. The hookups worked fine with 50-amp electric and decent water pressure. Cable TV had nearly 50-channels, but the wi-fi didn’t quite reach our part of the park. 

    Due to a family issue, we needed to leave about a day-and-a-half early. We called the office as a courtesy to let them know as we were pulling out and received a partial credit for a night’s stay on our credit card. Didn’t even ask, they just did it. Thanks Mystic KOA! 

    We’ll definitely be back. This is a great place to stay when visiting the coastal Connecticut/Rhode Island area.

    Wawaloam Campground

    Family friendly, great campstore, quiet

    We stayed here from a Tuesday to Thursday with our 21ft travel trailer & our dog. We had site 50. It was private, a great size & has water/electric. We had good cover on our site & the area our site was in was super quiet. There are both seasonal and regular sites on this campground. The camp store has everything you might need. The front gate staff are friendly and helpful. There seemed to be lots of activities on the weekends & it's definitely a family friendly/kid friendly spot. Dog friendly too! Lots of other campers had their dogs w them. We used this as our home base to visit Newport, which is about 35 min from the campground.

    Aces High RV Park

    Peaceful

    Well organized campground with both water front back in sites as well as large pull throughs. Pull through sites also have lots of space between them so you don't feel like you are on top of the neighbors. Sites and roads are a pea gravel material and each site has large grassy areas around it. It was a quiet area with ponds and creeks and a generally relaxing setting. It has a clean playground and well maintained pool as well as some walking paths, large grassy areas, pavilion and volleyball court. All sites but one (#67) are full hook up. Some seasonal sites but all were tasteful and not trashy looking. We enjoyed the shade trees on our site (#3) and noticed many sites had similar trees, but the owner keeps them trimmed to not interfere when parking on your site. There is also a creek area for dog swimming. Our two labs loved it! Local kayaking areas and about 30 min to Foxwoods Casino, even closer to Mohegan Sun. Mystic Seaport and Mystic Aquarium are also not too far. Nearby (5min drive) is also a fun looking place for mini golf. Will definitely be back!

    Fishermens Memorial State Park Campground

    Last minute trip

    Rainy nasty October weekend but nonetheless facilities were spotless. Hookups were awesome and easy. Layout is amazing, mostly pull through and pet friendly. Definitely a summer destination next year.

    Fishermens Memorial State Park Campground

    Great location

    We booked online having never been here before, our mistake. The site we chose is very uneven so leveling the RV wasn't real easy. Our fifth wheel front jacks are on the ground and two of the four wheels are off the ground. This seems to be common among the first part of the campground some sites are fairly level but not most of them. Now the back half of the campground has 50@ full hookups with much longer and level sites. My advice is to book the back section if you're a big Class A with a toad, or a long fifth wheel. Sites in the back seem to have more room to them. Water pressure was @ 50 psi.

    Wolf's Den Family Campground

    Perfect location central in Connecticut

    This place is off Route 9 in Connecticut on the east side of the Connecticut River (major RT 9 highway is on west side). You need to cross the river via bridge to Goodspeed Opera house and past to get to the RV campground. Nearby attractions are Gillette Castle and Goodspeed Opera. The campground itself is realy nice. Cable TV at most sites. Only electric 30 or 50A, and water; but there are a few dumpstations around in the camp. Very peaceful. There are activities on Friday and Saturday (like Bingo). Great store with extended hours. The camp staff will help you with anything. Really long or tall RV will need to stay close to the front of the campground, as typical older campground is not designed for 40 foot long or 10 foot high campers.


Guide to Montauk

RV camping options near Montauk, New York range from oceanfront state park sites to full-service private campgrounds within driving distance. Located at the easternmost tip of Long Island's South Fork, the area experiences mild summer temperatures averaging 75-85°F with frequent coastal breezes. Cell service can fluctuate dramatically depending on location, with some campgrounds offering reliable connectivity while others have significant coverage gaps.

What to do

Beach access opportunities: Hither Hills State Park Campground offers direct beach access just over the dunes. "The beach is right over the dunes very clean beach," notes one camper, who adds that fires are permitted on the beach following specific guidelines rather than at individual campsites.

Kayaking excursions: Explore the waters around Mystic from Seaport RV Resort, where visitors report good proximity to water activities. "One day we launched our kayaks north of the drawbridge in town at the public launch and paddled down to Mystic Seaport which was fun to see the historic boats from the water," shares one camper.

Walking tours: Crocker's Boatyard in New London offers walking access to multiple attractions. "Walked to Fort Trumbull... Sunday we went and visited Fort Trumbull which is also walking distance away. Very nice place to visit and learn. Also took a tour of the Coast Guard Ship at Fort Trumbull," reports one visitor.

What campers like

Marina environment: At Crocker's Boatyard, campers appreciate the unique setting. "We were here on an extremely hot and humid couple days. It was great to have electric and water hookups. Also being able to use their pool with our grandchildren was great... very interesting to watch the goings on at a boat yard," one reviewer notes.

Family-friendly amenities: Aces High RV Park receives praise for its facilities. "It has a clean playground and well maintained pool as well as some walking paths, large grassy areas, pavilion and volleyball court. All sites but one (#67) are full hook up," mentions a reviewer, adding "There is also a creek area for dog swimming. Our two labs loved it!"

Proximity to attractions: Montauk's location provides access to multiple destinations. "20-minutes drive to Mystic and all the touristy stuff to see and do," reports a camper at Aces High RV Park. Another visitor at Hither Hills notes, "It is close to town, the Montauk brewery, Montauk Point, Camp Hero, etc."

What you should know

Reservation timing: Competition for sites at Hither Hills requires advance planning. "Must reserve early in the year for summer spots," warns one camper, while another states they had to "reserve about 1 year in advance when I went to reserve it."

Site spacing varies: Campground density differs significantly between locations. At Hither Hills State Park Campground, "sites are close to each other with little to no privacy so be friendly as your neighbors are 3-5 ft" away. Conversely, at Aces High RV Park, "Pull through sites also have lots of space between them so you don't feel like you are on top of the neighbors."

Bathroom conditions: Facility quality varies by location. At Hither Hills, "Bath house on the west side is eh. The east side- beautiful," according to one visitor. Another reviewer noted inconsistent maintenance: "The main bathrooms by the beach were dirty all day long. I used the facilities multiple times from 8:30 AM to 6:30 PM - and they were never cleaned."

Tips for camping with families

Pool access options: North Fork Cottages & RV Resort offers swimming for children, though reviews are mixed on facility maintenance. One camper at Seaport RV Resort notes, "Our stay was in the spring before their busy season started so some things like the pool and water features were closed but the appearance was that it was well cared for and was a very popular attraction for families."

Kid-friendly activities: Multiple campgrounds offer dedicated recreation areas. "My kids enjoyed playing tennis & swimming in the pool at the campground - there is also mini-golf, but we didn't get the chance to play," shares a visitor at Ashaway RV Resort.

Weather considerations: Limited shade affects comfort at some locations. One camper advises that Hither Hills is "really hot no tree coverage" making it more suitable for RVs with air conditioning than tent camping during peak summer heat.

Tips from RVers

Site selection strategies: At Aces High RV Park, waterfront options provide premium experiences. "We paid $150/night for a 'Premium Waterfront FHU Site' on the lake. A bit pricey, but really nice site including level concrete pad and patio, clean and well-maintained utilities, and beautiful view."

Utility hookups: Water access varies significantly between parks. At Hither Hills, there are "no hookups. Generator hours are limited. There are spigots located down the middle of the rows. Go on google maps to find a spot near a spigot."

Off-season advantages: Timing affects both availability and experience quality. "Stayed in May, June, and November 2023. The location is its best feature," notes one RVer about Hither Hills, suggesting shoulder season visits can provide similar benefits with fewer crowds.
