About
East Beach Campground offers 15 sites across two areas along 3 miles of undeveloped beach, accessible only to fully self-contained, four-wheel-drive units (travel trailers and fifth wheels are not permitted, and tent camping is prohibited). A Barrier Beach Permit is required, and the campground may close temporarily for Piping Plover nesting season. There is no dump station or water fill-up on site. Pets are not allowed.
Fees
RV sites are $28/night in peak season (Rhode Island's official Reserve America-posted rate). An $8.75 reservation fee applies per booking, plus an $8.00/day vehicle pass ($12.00 for a second vehicle). No pets allowed.
