Both locations offer basic furnished cabins with electricity, though amenities vary by site. George Washington cabins feature simple interiors with wooden bunks or platform beds, while Holiday Acres provides more developed units with electrical outlets and small refrigerators. Bathrooms are typically shared facilities located nearby rather than inside individual cabins. "Very clean bathrooms & hot showers. Sites were well spaced and provided some privacy depending on your site choice," according to one visitor about George Washington State Campground.
Rustic log cabins and more modern furnished units are available at several campgrounds within 30 minutes of North Smithfield. Most cabins accommodate 4-6 people with varying bed configurations. Reservations are required, particularly during summer months when availability becomes limited. Pet policies differ between locations - George Washington allows pets at cabin sites while other facilities may restrict animals or charge additional fees. Holiday Acres Campground operates year-round, making it one of the few options for winter cabin stays in the region. A review noted: "Nice little stop over. Had everything we needed."
Most cabins include basic furnishings but require guests to bring their own bedding, pillows, and towels. Kitchen facilities are minimal, often limited to a small counter space or shelf area rather than full kitchens. Several campgrounds maintain small camp stores with essential supplies. Holiday Acres features a market described as "small but well stocked and the prices are very good" by one camper. Firewood is available for purchase at most locations, though bringing a cooler with food and drinks is recommended since cooking options may be limited to outdoor fire rings and portable grills.
"The sites fit a family tent, picnic table, fire ring (with plenty of space for chairs) and a vehicle. You don’t have any boundary or open area between sites."
"Driving in you quickly realize how huge this park is with some 400 RV sites, tent sites, yurts, lean-to’s, safari tents, and cabins. "
from $50 - $200 / night
"Tons of hiking trails. Picnic tables and fire pit at each site. The folks a few miles down the road by the rotary sell giant piles of wood for $10. They do not have an on site store or sell firewood."
"So if you are confused about things like location, let’s knock that out first: This campground is located near 2185 Putnam Pike, Chepachet, RI 02814."

"I can only speak for the camping on this peninsula/land, but the rest of the sites looked cozy, family-friendly, and fun. Cabins and RV sites across the lake, along with beaches for swimming."

Saw they have 2 yurts for rent as well."

from $42 - $58 / night
"Rustic with a traditional campground feeling. Swimming pond is wonderful. Three miles of well kept trails to explore. Friendly community of regulars with potlucks and campfires on the weekends."
TravelerBeautiful place about an hour from Salem Boston and Plymouth. Be careful getting in Sharp Hill coming up and down lots of scrapes on the ground tight navigation through sites lots of beautiful trees.
GuideLet me just preface this review by saying when I go camping, I like to be immersed in nature– ideally with a toilet and shower nearby. These are my only desires. This is not that kind of campsite. But just because it isn’t for me, that doesn’t mean it won’t be for you.
Pros:
- Easy to book and accommodating staff.
- Restrooms/showers were clean(though the air fresheners are not migraine sufferer-friendly).
- Nice, tall trees.
Cons:
- My only real con is the general vibe. Again, it’s just not for me. It has lots of activities for kids (an arcade, park, pool, etc.), so if that’s what you’re looking for, great! It just wasn’t what I personally was looking for. But with limited camping options in the area, it was our only real choice.
GuideI can understand why this place is rated one of the best campgrounds in the country. This was my first time camping here with my own RV and it did not disappoint. Our site was spacious, and centrally located within the campground, they have all the amenities you can imagine living up to that “resort” title. Ranging from multiple pools, hot tubs, courts, pavilions, playgrounds, etc. the cell service was great, they offer WiFi, and much more. I love the store, it gives off that Great Wolf Lodge feel, and it has everything inside you may need. Including a little hidden café that surprisingly made good lattes. This place is massive, and I’ve never seen a campground that had as many million dollar RV’s in one place. That atmosphere is just great here. There is so much to do. It’s so big you need an e-bike just to get around. Resort-style campgrounds like this come at a steeper price compared to others, but in my opinion, Normandy was well worth the cost. We look forward to revisiting, often!
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 came in the day after Labor Day ~ after 280 rv’s checked out ~ so it may not have been as peaceful over the weekend, but I heard everyone had lots of fun. The grounds are beautiful!
ScoutDo not go here! Worst customer service i have ever experienced. I booked online through expedia. Paid in full for a cabin. They took my money no problem. Then emailed me the cabin was not available and to contact them, off site, to get a different camp site. One i didn't want or even ask for. It all sounded sketchy to me so I told them to just refund the money to me and I'll go somewhere else. The person emailing me instead of refunding the money told me to contact the office to get a new site. I responded with I would just like a refund please. They ghosted me. So I call the site to get my money, which is not a small amount remind you close to$500, and the first person I talk to hangs up on me before I can say anything. The second person starts blaming me for booking through expedia and not them. Because there inability to use third party websites is my fault? After all that the apparently only person able to give refunds conveniently isn't there but would call me back. Was told I would definitely get my money back... suprise they never called. Luckily expedia has protection and I can get my money back through them. Save yourself a headache and stay away! If the whole place is run by the people booking I would fear for my children going there
GuideGood family park. Many new amenities. Bathhouse parks. The arcade is horrible. Dumping stations nicely set up. Campsites are ok. Ours was uneven with really large routes.
GuideWe arrived on a Saturday afternoon and they did seem have alot going on. It was Christmas in July. There was a live band and a few food trucks. The campsites are onto of each. Way too close for us. The roads that lead to the sites are way to narrow. I tow a 27ft travel trailer and my tires were off the road on both sides. The campsite itself was nice. No complaints there. Pool was gross. Mini golf was horrible. All the wood was rotted. We won't be back.
TravelerMy kids had a blast. Many activities and plenty to do. Only down side was there being not service, which stinks when you use the app to follow along with activities and updates.

The region sits at an elevation of around 400 feet above sea level, with the surrounding forest consisting primarily of oak, maple and pine trees. Winter cabin rentals in this area typically require advance planning as overnight temperatures often drop below freezing from December through February.
Hiking trails access: West Thompson Lake Campground maintains several miles of wooded paths for day hiking. "Take a long paddle up the river and you'll be escorted by hundreds of bluebirds and cedar waxwings. Fishing here is all catch and release," notes one visitor who found the trails well-maintained throughout the park.
Disc golf course: Multiple courses are available within 30 minutes of North Smithfield cabin rentals. "There is a ball park in this RV resort. Much of the roads are paved. They have reasonable rules that are expected to be abided by," according to a camper who enjoyed the recreational facilities at Normandy Farms Campground.
Fishing opportunities: Most cabins are within a short walk of fishing ponds or streams. At Sutton Falls Camping Area, guests can fish in Aldrich Mill Pond. "We were delighted when we learned we had the little peninsula of site P1 all to ourselves. Stunning views across the large pond, and serving as a wonderful halfway rest/respite," reports one visitor who appreciated the waterfront access.
Private woodland sites: Many cabin guests prefer sites with natural separation between units. "Big open sites, really quiet, great place to relax and hike," writes one camper about George Washington State Campground, noting the spaciousness compared to other area campgrounds.
Clean bathhouse facilities: Most cabin campgrounds maintain central bathroom buildings with varying levels of amenities. "Grounds were well kept, bathrooms were very clean with hot showers (bring quarters, $1.50 for 6mins). Staff was friendly and helpful, with park rangers making regular rounds," reports a visitor to George Washington State Campground.
On-site camp stores: Several campgrounds operate small markets with essential supplies. At Holiday Acres Campground, guests appreciate the convenience store. "The camp store is small but well stocked and the prices are very good," according to a guest who found the provisions reasonably priced compared to outside retailers.
Electrical service limitations: Some cabin sites have outdated or limited electrical capacity. "The electrical system needs significant attention. Multiple RVs share single pedestals, and we observed exposed wire connections and pest issues at electrical boxes," warns a visitor to Douglas Forest RV Resort who experienced power fluctuations during warm weather.
Shower costs: Pay showers are common at state-run campgrounds near North Smithfield. Most require quarters, typically $1-2 for 5-7 minutes of hot water. Privately owned campgrounds more commonly offer unlimited showers included in site fees.
Reservation windows: Most cabin sites can be booked 6-12 months in advance. Weekends from June through August typically fill 3-4 months ahead, while weekday availability remains better even during summer months. Holiday weekends require the earliest booking, sometimes filling immediately when reservation windows open.
Beach areas for children: Several cabin campgrounds provide designated swimming areas with shallow entry points. "There is a nice beach for children. The water was warm and clean. You can kayak or canoe. The dogs cannot go on the beach, but they can go in the boats," notes a visitor to George Washington State Campground.
Activity schedules: Family-oriented campgrounds run organized programs primarily on weekends. At Stateline Campresort & Cabins, "We went to their Oktoberfest that they did on Saturday and that was decorated great and the band and activities were good! Overall we had a really good time and would recommend this campground for others," writes a family who enjoyed the seasonal events.
Playground access: Most cabin areas include basic playgrounds within walking distance of rental units. Equipment typically includes swings, slides and climbing structures suitable for children ages 4-12, though maintenance conditions vary by campground.
Site spacing concerns: Cabin areas at most campgrounds provide more separation between units than RV sections. "The sites we had overlooked the pond and was perfect," reports a visitor to Stateline Campresort & Cabins who found the waterfront locations offered better privacy than interior sites.
