<h2>Overview</h2><p>Tidewater Campground offers a peaceful retreat nestled within the scenic seacoast region of New Hampshire. As a <strong>family-owned and operated</strong> destination, the park prioritizes a welcoming atmosphere and well-maintained grounds for visitors. It serves as an ideal home base for those looking to explore the rugged beauty of the Atlantic coastline while enjoying the quiet of a <strong>wooded setting</strong>. Whether you are arriving in a large motorhome or a smaller travel trailer, the park provides a comfortable environment that balances modern convenience with the classic charm of a traditional New England camping experience.</p><h2>Location & Surroundings</h2><p>Situated on Route 1 in Hampton, the campground is strategically located just minutes away from the vibrant energy of <strong>Hampton Beach</strong>. Despite its proximity to major attractions, the park itself is tucked away from the coastal noise, offering a serene landscape filled with <strong>mature trees and shaded sites</strong>. This location allows travelers to enjoy the best of both worlds: easy access to the shoreline and boardwalks during the day, followed by a restful evening under the stars in a protected, natural environment.</p><h2>Amenities & Park Features</h2><p>The park is equipped with a variety of features designed to enhance the guest experience. Facilities include:</p><ul><li>A <strong>large swimming pool</strong> and basketball court for recreation.</li><li>A dedicated playground area for younger travelers.</li><li><strong>Full hookup sites</strong> with 30-amp and 50-amp electrical service.</li><li>A well-stocked camp store and laundry facilities.</li></ul><p>These amenities ensure that visitors have everything they need for a comfortable stay while enjoying the fresh coastal air.</p><h2>Nearby Attractions & Things to Do</h2><p>Beyond the campground gates, the New Hampshire seacoast is full of adventure. A short drive brings you to the <strong>Hampton Beach Casino Ballroom</strong> for live entertainment or the expansive sands of the state park for sunbathing. Nature enthusiasts often head to the <strong>Fuller Gardens</strong> or take a whale-watching excursion from the harbor. For those who enjoy history and shopping, the nearby city of Portsmouth offers historic architecture and the famous <strong>Kittery Outlets</strong> are just across the border in Maine.</p><h2>Who This Park Is Best For</h2><p>This park is an excellent choice for <strong>family vacationers</strong> wanting a safe, community-oriented space for children to play. It also appeals strongly to <strong>beach-bound RVers</strong> who prefer avoiding the high-traffic congestion of beachfront lodging while remaining close to the water. If you value a quiet night's sleep and a clean, organized park layout over a high-intensity resort vibe, Tidewater Campground will fit your travel style perfectly. It is a reliable choice for a genuine New Hampshire coastal getaway.</p>

Tidewater Campground | Hampton, NH RV Park Guide

My family and I stayed at this campground for the 2025 season (so I could work locally as a rn.)We had a wonderful time! We made many memories at the pool and playground, both of which are kept up nicely. We went for several bike rides weekly and played in the large open fields. The bathroom facilities are cleaned at least once daily and were always tidy. The staff were always kind and helpful! These are the type of memories I will cherish forever! Thank you to the owner whom my spouse and daughter became buddies with!
We will be back again,
The Rogan-Akgun family

One star is generous - zero would be more accurate. Theresa is unpleasant. Period. She was rude when we called to make the reservation and we excused it away as maybe she just had a bad day. However, when I went in to the office to check out, she chastised me for having been on the wrong site. I politely reminded her that we had been there for two days so the appropriate time to say something about that would have been at the beginning of our stay, not the end. Her personality flipped and she started to be nice, asking how the stay was. I told her that it was not somewhere we will come back to because it was like camping in a cemetery and we prefer more vibrant, friendly, and engaging campgrounds that allow pets and bicycles. We were never told about the no dog policy and it was just luck that we weren’t traveling with one of our dogs. She blamed the solemn atmosphere on it being late in the season, insisting that summer is a blast there. She said no one camps this time of year and that’s why it was so solemn. But we saw many sites occupied, including at least one tent site. I explained that we camp year round and she said that’s because we are from the Midwest where it doesn’t get cold. Not sure how that made sense but anyway, she was very insistent that our bad experience was only because it wasn’t summer. It couldn’t have been the sterile vibe, the no dog policy, the signs everywhere saying “no bicycles”, the weird energy that felt like we were constantly being watched, or that we had to pay for showers.

If camping in a place with zero hospitality and zero camp life vibrancy is your thing, this place is perfect. For everyone else, book anywhere but here.

Camp ground was really nice very clean, but a nice clean campground doesn't go so far if you have to deal with a really miserable person at the office... this camp ground is better suited for older couples, if you have kids do not bring them here, they can not play they can not ride bikes nothing... it was close to the ocean which was nice but that's probably all this camp ground had going for it... Maybe when I retire and no kids are with me I'd return but not till then

I agree with all the 1 star reviews, the lady that answers the phone Theresa is very rude. We had a reservation for 2 nights and was sitting in the hospital with someone trying to reschedule for another time later in the week or next and was told of the cancellation policy that we wouldn't get any money back even though we wanted to stay later in the week or next. We also stated the we had stayed before at the campground and when we ended the conversation I heard her say under her breath they only stayed twice before she hung up. I understand cancellation polices however this was a reschedule request. She doesn't care. She kept the full amount that we prepaid in full, not even a partial refund was offered.
Very rude and very uncaring. Be sure to read all the other one star reviews. Not a recommended place to stay

We recently stayed at Tidewater Campground, and while the grounds themselves are clean and well-kept, our experience with the staff—particularly one employee named Theresa—was very disappointing and left a lasting negative impression.

When we arrived, we were about 45 minutes early for check-in. We simply wanted to see if our campsite might be ready. Instead of a polite response, Theresa made sarcastic and rude comments about people not knowing how to read check-in times and complained about early arrivals. When I mentioned that we had waited at the nearby Walmart before coming, she said, “I’d rather you be at the Walmart parking lot than here making me mad.” It was uncalled for, but I decided to brush it off and move on.

Later, while at the pool with our children, our 6-year-old jumped in (something we didn’t realize was against the rules). Theresa came out of the office and, in front of everyone, asked if he was our child, then embarrassed him by asking if he knew how to read and telling him to read the “no jumping” signs. Let’s be real every pool has no jumping signs. He was so upset he started crying and refused to swim for the rest of the day. There are ways to correct behavior, especially with children, that don’t involve shaming them publicly.

If you have kids, I would strongly recommend thinking twice before staying here. The campground itself is nice and clean, but the way we were spoken to—both as paying guests and as parents—was unacceptable. Unfortunately, this overshadowed any positives about the location.

As for our family we will NOT be coming back unless we hear of new owners.

Worst place to camp. Absolutely miserable place to stay and disrespectful family ran business.  This is not for a family to stay.

Stay here if you like a camp that literally puts you to bed at 10:00.  We were asked once to turn off my music with my 7 year old and girlfriend, we did. Then 5 mins later to put out the fire completely, my son was freezing, we did anyways.  They told us not to talk outside the tent...  Did everything they asked no problem at all, we went to bed.  The next morning at 6:00 AM the same people woke us up with leaf blowers for untill we packed up. THE WORST PART WAS THE OLD WOMAN T, WHOSE FAMILY RUNS THIS PLACE TOLD ME AND MY SON Ricky THAT WE ARE NOT WELCOME HERE AND NOT TO COME BACK??? Ricky's not coming back for sure. I WASN'T GOING TO COME BACK ANYWAYS. SHE MADE HIM CRY FOR 30 MINS ON THE WAY HOME.  You can hear the misery in her voice right from making the reservation, should have listened to my gut.  Karma will come back to this place for sure.

Two adults, wanted to be quiet, this is what we where looking for...we have a motorcycle.
We have came here since 3 years.
The rules are perfect for us.
The owner is very kind.
We love this camgroud,  very clean whats more...

We were Seasonal campers for 12 yrs. This place is very tidy and Theresa ..and Lee and Billy, Wally  are exceptional..we loved it there and the rules are to keep every one safe. If  my husband had not passed, we would be back there ...

Based on all the negative reviews, I'm out! If you have an issue take a picture and report them to the town health department or call the police to resolve other issues. They'll capitulate.

A place in history to stay as the family has been their dating back to 1634.

Decently priced and bathrooms & showers were very well kept.

The campsites are a decent size and available for every kind of camping. It also seemed that many if not all the RV sites had their own dump station which is rare.

Teresa at the desk when I arrived was very delightful and married the 12th generation.

Had a seasonal here for years. So happy to be able to return after 13 years. Still a great, clean, safe campground with nice pool and good sized sites. There are rules, which is fine with us. Can't wait to go back!

Nice campground! Salt water pool, little arcade area, playground. All very family friendly. The pool had 1.6 million dead bugs in it. Otherwise, perfect

I really love this place. I was a little weary at first because I had a bad interaction on the phone. But, honestly. The lady at the front desk is a peach. Super friendly and helpful. The campground was well maintained and the bathrooms were clean. The rules are a little excessive but honestly, for a family campground with children running around, you'll be happy they have them! I recommend this place 10x over!
