We stayed a week and really enjoyed it. There is lots to do in the area but we also loved hanging around our campsite in the afternoon which was quiet since everyone was gone for the day. There are two public beaches nearby that are a really big draw.
The campground is divided into four loops. Loops 1 and 2 are for RVs and have sewer, water, and electricity and have paved camping pads. Loop 3 is for tents only. Loop 4 is water and electric with gravel pads. There is nice grass around campsites but bring a patio mat because everyone has used one in the past which has killed the grass. In my opinion, the best sites are 70-73 with a water view and facing west for a nice sunset. Sites 53-65, 75-79 are alongside a busy road that is quite noisy and the sites are extremely unlevel. About half the sites are level so pay attention to "grade" when booking your site.
All loops have a bathhouse except for Area 1. The tent sites are in a separate loop and have a bathroom centrally located. Tent sites have nice grass, a paved parking area, fire pit and picnic table. Some offer more shade than others. There really are no hiking trails– just a¼-mile mowed path around one of the old bunkers (this was a military instillation in WWII and while you can’t go in them for safety reasons there are some interpretive panels with historical information). There are two tennis courts, basketball, horseshoes, and a playground. We loved the farmers market that is held in the park every Sunday.
Check-in requires a driver's license and proof of vehicle registration so make sure you bring it when registering in the office. Since many campers did not know this, it caused a line at registration and a long back-up of RVs checking in. The campground does not sell firewood but you can find it at a nearby convenient mart. There are two EV charging station but they are at the registration office which is not very close to campsites.
Two miles away is the little town of Galilee where there are restaurants, seafood markets (where you can buy live lobster right off the boat), and the ferry dock that takes you to Block Island. About 4 miles north of the campground is a much bigger town with lots of restaurants, groceries, Walmart, etc. Less than a mile away is Aunt Carries which has delicious ice cream. Within two miles are two public beaches (which are free but require a parking pass which is$12/day for non-residents or$60/season).
