I have been camping at Bay View Family Campground for at least 25 years. The management are all very helpful and I have never had any issues with them or any other campground worker. A majority of the workers will stop and talk with you if you want to have a conversation. The fact that the campground has 3 pools that are always clean is wonderful. The pools do not get overly crowded and there is staff to help keep any wild children under control. Every weekend, in season, has activities for the kids. I had my grandson, and he did tie dye t-shirts, design your own t-shirts and other craft projects. They have two playgrounds that help keep kids busy as well. Saturday nights they have a band where you can dance and have fun. The campground is large and great to walk. Yes, there are hills, but going up and down is good for your muscles. I love walking around and seeing how nicely people decorate their sites. If you are thinking about going, go. You will be glad you did.

We reserved a space for three nights the week of Labor Day. The campground is in a good location for exploring Cape Cod. We didn't take advantage of the amenities as we were mostly gone during the day but there seems like a lot to do. Our site was fantastic--level ground, lots of shade, plenty of space. We had water and electric which we made use of though we are tent campers. I must mention the bathroom facilities by our site. They were absolutely the most well maintained we've ever experienced. They were clean, fresh smelling and dry every time we went in. The showers are spacious with plenty of hooks and a bench to set a bag down. Also--LOVED the music playing (lol) no kidding it was a great playlist and I found myself singing in the shower and dancing while brushing my teeth. The staff obviously care very much and take pride in the property.

This was the best maintained campground I have ever been to. Every inch of the campground was clean and well maintained. The staff was extremely helpful with local interests as well as meeting our camping needs. They have fire places instead of fire pits. We absolutely loved them. There are three wonderful pools that are crystal clear and refreshing. The location is only 15 minutes from parking to Martha's Vineyard. This is simply the best campground I have ever been to.

I was a little nervous about a couple reviews which seemed to be made by rule breakers who didnt like those rules being broken. We were extremely impressed with our stay. The staff was all friendly, pools were amazing (we only visited lower pool but that was perfect for us) the grounds were spotless and staff was always riding around cleaning. Bathrooms and showers were top notch. Only thing that we didnt love was it is a bit hilly so didn't suit itself to bike rides with the kiddos but cant blame the campground for that.

It's a great campground. We never had any issues with the water or electricity. The pools were very nice and clean. The arcade and ice cream was a plus! The only downside is it can be a little tricky to get to and from it. Make sure you are paying attention when getting close. There's lots of traffic both ways.

Beautiful campground with helpful, friendly service! 3 pools and lots of amenities! The most beautiful bathrooms and showers ever! The best dog park at a campground ever! If I lived in the area I would definitely have a seasonal spot here!

So, at the recommendation of a friend, we booked to end the season. 1. The site. Nothing special. Dirt and gravel, but, roomy and a nice rustic stacked fire pit. No greenery to give privacy or seperation from the adjacent site. 2. No water pressure, but enough for general use. 3. It is a dog friendly park. I hold the dog owners primarily responsible for their dogs behavior; Badly socialized, don't bring them. However, the place is well staffed. Plenty of corporate golf carts around. Yet, I witnessed countless incedents of dogs wandering around, or walking with their owners off the leash, peeing on everything, and in 1 instance, had to go to the owner and show him where his dog had crapped. Bottom line: the time the staff had the biggest presence was check-out time. 4. Facility. Every time I used the public facilities, they were spotless. Always clean andvsmelling of bleach. Kudos for that. 5. My big peeve: We had friends come down and visit. They arrived at 6 pm. They were charged 30$. We immediately left in their vehicle to go for dinner. We returned at 8 (office closed) No 10$ refund for them. They left by 9. Still, this is gouging qt the max. Becayse of this, our friends (campers as well) will never consider staying there, and we will not either. Add to that, the power pole at the entrance was hit by a vehicle, and the power was down for the entire day. Certainly not their fault, but access to and from the campground was severely hampered. No recompense fir the inconvenience, yet our friends were charged 39 buckes to basically drive in, then out.

We have been here now for 8 out of our 9 nights. The campground is extremely well maintained, the sites are beautiful and the pools/washrooms are very clean. We have met some amazing seasonal campers here as well. They were all so happy to offer advice on places to go and see in the area as well as restaurant recommendations. Every staff member we have encountered has been amazing and helpful. The location is fantastic, as it was an easy drive to Provincetown, Falmouth and Boston. We seriously can not say enough good things about Bay View. We will definitely come back.

We recently stayed at this nicely appointed campground for 6 nights. The campground is clean and well maintained. We had zero issues , with water, power, or our sewer hookup. We did not use any of the pools, but they did look inviting and clean. They also had a food truck on site with a nice menu. Our site was near one of the bathhouses in Oyster Cove. Staff were constantly checking it, and ensuring its cleanliness. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5, is because they wanted to charge $11 a day for the use of my own street legal electric golf cart. I do occasionally have trouble getting around due to physical limitations. I choose not to pay, and therefore did not get to enjoy many of the amenities.

First time visiting this campground. Upon arrival an hour and a half earlier ( not realizing check in is at 2 pm) I was told to come back in a half hour or I had to pay $35 early check in fee.(GREED) After socializing with some of the neighbors in the campsites around us we were told the campsite we stayed at has been empty for weeks. Campground is on a main road very hard to get in and out of when pulling a camper. It was stressful having to leave and come back shortly after - also frustrating after driving for a while to get there. We came back a half an hour later , checked in , set up at the campsite (very narrow and hard to get into) . We took our children to the pool a little while later and was reprimanded every 5 minutes that we were doing something wrong. Staff watching like hawks and constantly telling you can’t do this or that. Honestly we did not enjoy our stay there and will not return. We have been to so many other places and never had to deal with so much pettiness! If you are looking for a true camping experience without being told every step of the way you can’t do this and that I would recommend looking elsewhere! This is an honest review of our stay.

There are a few positives about this campground - the site was level, there were bathrooms and showers, and we had full hookups. This campground was the worst we stayed in during a multi week trip, which was very disappointing considering it was the most expensive per night. In summary, the staff were rude; the amenities outdated; the showers were tiny unless you used the accessible one; the site was dirt rather than gravel, which left us in a muddy mess when it rained. We were unable to select our own space when we made the reservations in February for a September trip, which initially resulted in us being assigned a space without sewer hookups for a week long stay. We were fortunately able to correct that by phone before arrival. The majority of spaces in the campground seemed to be for seasonal reservations. While some spaces were maintained quite well, others were not. We felt as though we were staying in a mobile home park versus a campground, which was disappointing to us. During the day, the staff were very diligent about access to the campground in order to ensure all campers and visitors had paid the necessary fees for entry. If there was security after dark, it was not apparent.

I love this camping, my grandkids had a lot fun, it's activities for everyone. I want to mention about the guy, I forgot his name, he is the one who does all the crafts and bingo. He is amazing and the two ladies Vicky inside the store, she was very knowledgeable and good manners to explain to us and answered all the questions. To finally I want to give a 5*** for Caron, she was at the entrance and she welcome everyone with a great smile, and very polite too. You guys doing amazing!
