Bates Beach Oceanfront & RV Park

All these reviews about no guests are inaccurate and unfair. Yes, guests are limited and there are rules to be followed, but that keeps the place beautiful and special. If you don’t like it, camp elsewhere.

Been staying here for 3days and so far the amenities are nice, the service is amazing and the sites are incredible. I highly recommend this place if you want a stay away from the norm and to kick back and relax

Had a wonderful stay here. It was a great place to camp for the night. I had my little tent but saw plenty of campers and RVs. Would have loved to have stayed longer.

If you want a beautiful location and do not mind that you can’t have family or friends visit you, and you have to be lights out by 8:30 pm, this is the spot for you. The owner has these very draconian rules that no more than 3 visitors at a time (so 2 couples are out) can visit you and only on odd evenings. Meaning if you are site 6, visitors can only come on even days, if site 7, they can only come on odd days. Also, maximum of 3 hours per visit. So it does not matter is all the even sites have no visitors, your guests can’t come for dinner. We recently had friends from California come and 4 of us showed up to have a visit and dinner and because it was 4 people and not on the”allotted day”, we had to pack up and leave the campsite to go and have dinner elsewhere. All of the other sites have no visitors there. Just a very draconian rule and we will never go there again or recommend this place to any friends.

Sites facing the waterfront and sites one row back. Everyone has easy access to the cobble beach. There are full hookup sites and ones with partial hookups. At least one glamping cabin that we saw. Amazing view of the Inside Passage and mountains across the way. Watch the cruise ships go by at a distance. Close to town in case you need it. Only 30 min from Mt Washington. Excellent wifi. Will definitely come back.
