Indian Island county park is a unique experience, between the beautiful camping families thriving in the evenings and the magic of nature, this park is truly a sight to behold....that is until sunrise when an unsightly trash man comes in pestering the peaceful campers checking for registration at daybreak... if you watch closely he can be seen stalking the families, hovering like some kind of giant mosquitoe. Speaking of his kin, there is a cloud of them that blanket the hiking trail, a few feet in the swarm thickened to an unmanageable point, it was clear that nature doesn't want humans here... and that's ok

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Does the RV sites have water/electrical hook ups? 30 amp? What is their phone number? Thanks

Leila Sesmero | Oct 3, 2021
Lettzgo Brandon | Oct 3, 2021

Yes You need a Suffolk County Green Key pass to make reservations online. Do so 6 months in advance to try and get an electric site! Rarely can you "walk in" and get electric during the summer.

Does the camp site have rv/camper hookup electric and water?

Anil N Ria | Oct 4, 2019
Jennifer Golden | Oct 4, 2019

Yes but sites are extremely limited as in high demand and need to reserve months in advance as limited sites also. They do have a rv/camper family or group area if you can get multiple RVs or campers to go upto 10 sites I believe but must reserve with 6 rv/camper minimum. It has a large fire pit area in that section as well for awesome nights by the fire! Enjoy!!

Is there a kayak launch?

bradley belz | Oct 4, 2017
Lettzgo Brandon | Oct 4, 2017

No designated launch. But its a short walk from the parking area, across the sand, to water. Prob a 1-2 minute kayak drag. Also if you park at the first parking area on the right (not up by the picnic table loop) you can put in on the left side of the road by the reeds. Thats only 15ft to the water and you are in a little cove area. Also, if you are camping, you can launch on the southernmost campsite road through the opening in the reeds there. You will paddle out by the golf course and a small inlet. (No parking at that spot) See google maps satellite to see it. πŸ˜€

Until the date of this month of September the beach is open thanks if anyone knows

Rosa Anzures | Sep 12, 2022
Sarah Jones | Oct 2, 2022

Beach is open year round

Can I just go to the park and sit by the water? or do I need a permit sticker on my car?

Ms. Butler | Oct 4, 2019
Eric | Oct 4, 2019

You can come and go as you like. You do NOT need a permit to walk around or go to the beach. Just park in the bathroom parking lots, not in the RV areas.

THIS CAMP SITE REQUIRED RESERVATION? IF SO, HOW CAN I MAKE A RESERVATION?

Yami Perez | Oct 4, 2018
Jennifer Golden | Oct 4, 2018

Normally during summer season is a 4 night reservation minimum. You can show up and try to get site if u have a tent. If u have camper then slim to no chance . U can make a reservation 3 months in advance and people sit up to be the first to reserve on line. https://parks.suffolkcountyny.gov U can go to any park and get a green key card which gives u access to all of the nys / county parks and reduce fees for parking and reservations. U can also use it to purchase reduced yearly beach permit to drive on outer beaches.
