Rv spots are amazing trolley picks you up and brings you right down to Salem downtown family friendly staff are amazing one of the first campgrounds. I don’t have any negative things to say it was smooth from start to finish.

The park was really nice. The camp grounds were clean. The bath house was a bit run down so I did not use them. The staff were very nice and suggested great things to see in Salem. Being right next to the water was beautiful. The hook ups for the camper were good but there is no sewage. You have to go next door to a waste treatment plant to dump the waste. I didn't see any vending machines or other amenities. There was a place to launch your boat if you have one.

In my opinion, this is the best way to stay in Salem. A tent site is 38 a night. If you book far enough in advance you can stay close enough to the beach you will hear the waves while you sleep. As afar as the physical grounds, its okay, nothing special, its the location that makes it next level. The island is little and easy to.get around. If you have bikes, this is a perfect adventure for anyone wanting to be close enough to all the Salem action in October without the price tag. We walked everywhere. Its totally reasonbly walkable if you are a person who enjoys walking. There are ubers as well and for the most part ubers are cheaper than the parking in the center of town. You could always uber into the center and walk around there and uber back. It was $12 one way when I did it. Parking was 50. There is some sort of power station that does make some noise and planes regularly go overhead. As you walk around the little island you will hear these. It did not bother my ability to sleep. I will add video and photos to this review later today.

Camp ground is nice, great price and proximity to Salem . If you are camping the raccoons are huge and they will get into your stuff! Do not leave any food out . Also if you are tent camping anywhere near the gate . Be prepared to not get much sleep. The gate is constantly opening and closing throughout the night. People drive in at all hours and have music blasting. If it’s not the gate, it’s the raccoons getting into garbage, or the planes fling in / out of Logan. Suggest bringing ear plugs.

Setting up reservations for a place we've never been has never been so easy! The site was a bit small yet cozy in its own way. You're only a few minutes from the tourist area of Salem. The beach and views were over the top and beautiful. The bath house could use some upgrades, but it was clean. Staff was so very kind and friendly.
