I will start off as I have been trying for the last two summers to get a tent site here and my lack of planning last year mid winter is the cause for me not getting a site. This place is beautiful and a fishermans heaven if you like fishing and camping but I recommend booking mid winter as it reservations fill by spring for the summer. The lower tent sites I prefer as some of the reviews mention the seasonal RV campers complaining about their fires and late night conversation/partying at the upper tent sites which you don't have to deal with at the lower sites. The upper tent sites you have no tree cover and are in direct sunlight and exposed to the wind which could be nice in the hot summer nights but not in the day. The parking at the upper sites is a little more distant from the tent area as you cannot park near your tent but in designated areas on the upper and lower sites. The lower sites you can park right in front of the camping area which allows for closer access to your vehicle so you are not lugging gear like a mule and also plenty of tree cover to protect from sun and rain and more privacy, also porta pottys right out front and close to the main gate and dumpsters although a little walk to the pavillion and showers. Overall a beautiful place to camp and the fishing pier is great to catch Striped Bass, Flounder, Scup and Occasional Tautog during the right seasons/times. I had a blast here and will definately be back again!

This was a perfect venue for a pre-wedding rehearsal dinner. Pavilion was perfect even when it rained a bit. It was a beautiful canvas for fresh flowers, table runners and a buffet of delicious foods. The absolute best was best able to go out to the beach area for pictures and to witness an amazing sunset 🌇. Convenient, plenty of parking... great venue!

so beautiful and quite great for a nice romantic date so looking into the campground they had huge spaces not on top of each other and very clean

Wonderful location and view next to the bay. Town run so reasonable pricing the Pavilion is large 100 people (pre Covid) not a problem. Has roll down sides if the weather becomes inclement.

Yes but they are disgusting. Remember to watch out for Racoons at night or you'll lose your food. Also no shade but other than that its awesome.
