    Jan R.

    We stayed here in the fall and I was surprised at how many other campers were staying at this time of year. I think November is kind of late in the year for the casual camper. There were many campers from different states and it appeared that there were permanent sites which I felt was unusual. We were put in between two other campers and it was very very close. The sites are very small and not all of them have trees. For the fall stay it was fine. I would not stay here during the summer because it is just too close and would be too crowded. They have nice places to sit outside in common areas and have a campfire and they have pools as well. There's a little shop and the people who work at the office are very kind. I was very surprised that when we went to stay another night we could not because they were completely booked. Of course the whole campground is not open during the off-season but they were quite a few campers there for the weekend. They also have cabins which look adorable and are reasonably priced. There are many of them and that would definitely be a great stay.

    After hours check-in, in laundry room

    It was still a bit cold during our camping trip, the pools were not open and there was quite a bit of work going on adding water and power to many sites throughout the campground. The campground was fully staffed and everyone we encountered was quite nice and helpful. Reservations were made on line and check in was quick and easy. There are set office/store hours, and if you arrive after hours, your reservation will be posted in the laundry facility. If you don't have a reservations, any available sites will also be listed here and you can choose one, just fill out the reservation card. Our tent site was in a wooded area and included a small roofed structure with a picnic table underneath, a cold water spigot and an outdoor outlet. This particular site had a raised, wood framed area for the tent. Other sites nearby do not have this raised area so perhaps those are for small campers. A Class B was parked at a site in this area of the campground. The tent pad was covered in a rubberized material that I supposed would make sleeping on the ground a bit softer. Unfortunately, our tent was too big for this site (it is a big 2 room tent) and a portion of it draped over one end. The surface of the tent pad is so soft, our stakes kept coming out of the ground. Luckily we have a variety of stakes and found the longer, more heavy duty stakes worked best. After the wind blew the stakes out of the ground a couple times and knocking one side of the tent down before the other got up, we finally had it all sorted out. Then we found out. No water. No electricity. Maybe not a big deal to you, but for my camping buddy, this was a no go. We flagged down a staff member who was driving by on a little golf cart and told him of our dilemma. He checked out the fuse box, checked other sites. None of them have water or electric either. He went to speak with the crews working on nearby sites and it seems they shut off services from all nearby sites without informing management. Hmmm. So off to the office my SO goes to see if they can help a buddy out. The staff were really excellent. They got us a small cabin with power inside and water outside. The cabin includes a tiny TV, a dorm sized fridge, and they even got us a small heater. Which honestly came in so handy because it was super cold that night and I was thankful to be indoors! So in the end, it all worked out. There is one full bed, and one set of twin bunkbed w/foam mattresses. A few hooks on the wall to hang jackets, and a broom. Outside is a water spigot, an outlet, a fire pit/grill and picnic table. On the small porch is a sturdy porch swing that we used throughout our visit. That was a nice treat. The campground has cable and wi-fi. The cabin was located close to the centrally located public restrooms, so it was a nice short walk to use the facilities. Staff stopped to clean and empty trash several times a day and most of my visits the toilet seats were still up from the last cleaning. Granted, it was early in the season so not many sites were filled, still, it's nice to know they are in there often. These showers do not require coins to use (I've been to a campground that you had to pay for a hot shower). There are three shower stalls w/a small standing area to change clothes. A bench to put on your shoes is outside the changing area. Bring your toiletries in a water proof container and remember those shower shoes! I didn't remember. The store has flip flops though, so no harm. The store has a Keurig maker in an area with crafts for the kids. They sell bundles of wood as well as decorative lanterns for your site, beach towels for the pool, food items, bbq needs, RV needs, gifts, toys and clothes. It was fun walking around to see all the treats they have available. Of course they have all the fixin's for smores. The campground is close to the highway and although quiet, you can still hear cars from the freeway. There are a couple of areas where you can walk your dog to do their business and they have bags available to pick up after them. Set quiet hours are 10pm - 8am, so be kind to your neighbors and please follow the rules. Trash is picked up at your site daily and they do recycle, so keep it separate. On site laundry is open 24 hours/day. A pavilion is located near the bathhouse where they host activities and movies during the season. This seems to be a well maintained campground for RV's, trailers, tent campers and cabin rentals. They have a variety of cabins from basic to full on kitchen and bath. There was plenty of staff on hand during our stay and everyone was very helpful and kind. I'm sure in the middle of summer there are lots of kids riding bikes and playing on the swings, but during our visit, it was all adults and very quiet.

    Deluxe pull threw site. Fire pit, patio, table and chairs on site

    This was the first place we took our Airstream! Had a wonderful time. The pull threw "deluxe" site was nice and there were literally NO BUGs! They came around every morning to collect the trash (awesome) and had a ton activities for the kids. The huge slide was a hit and I had a hard time prying my kids off the jumping pillow Defiantly worth the 5 hour trip fro Long Island!

    Camped here during the Winter as we were working in the area. One of only a few campgrounds open during Winter in S. New England. Not much in the way of scenic beauty and the noise from I-95 traffic could be hear quite often. Sites were level. Only 30 amp service. Water pressure was low but it was Winter. Fire rings at each site. Propane was a bit expensive and could be purchased cheaper at Ginger's in Westerly. Laundry $2 wash, $2 dry. Campground staff was helpful especially John the manager. Electricity is charged extra for month to month sites at $0.15 per kw hour. A couple playgrounds, large grassy areas and a pool. Naturally the pool was closed my entire visit. Large pond at the front entrance. A nicely stocked rv store is on site. The KOA office has a small store, too, selling misc. camping items. Bathhouse was clean but very dated. Couple of times the park was halfway full it was a little noisy but quieted down by 10 pm.

    A friend and I rented the deluxe cabin for one weekend night. We were attending an event at Foxwoods and their price point and quality of stay was the best in the local area. The KOA staff was very accommodating to our needs. IE: early check in. In addition, we were put in contact with a winter over resident who provided us transportation to and from Foxwoods. The night we stayed over it was about 19 degrees out. The cabin stayed toasty all night.

    That packet of whatever that was was there for three days straight that means no one went in there to clean the bathrooms.

The CG was clean and well kept, a nice dog park with agility tests, laundry was clean with enough W/D so I never needed to wait. The pool was warm and great for kids and sunbathers, showers clean and convenient to pool. I was concerned about no sewer but with pumping every 4th day I was able to use the W/D water in my motor home for small loads. The sites are spacious with grass and room for evening fires. There are lots of activity areas like bocce, mini putt... can't remember them all but I am sure they are listed. The staff were always very friendly, and always available. Manager was always around checking on guests. There are many seasonal guests who are very nice and helpful and they pride themselves in their site upkeep. The location is perfect for exploring the area. If we lived closer we would be back every year. It is a campground, not like the Sun Resorts in the West with paved sites and spiffy big rec centers. We really enjoyed our stay!

    I love Burlingame campground. My wife's family has been camping here since at least the 1960s and…read morewe love carrying on the tradition. We had such a good time over 2024 Memorial Day weekend, we extended our trip an extra week - totaling 14 days. We stayed in the 600 loop of Legiontown between two different sites- one for our original 1 week stay, and another for our added 1 week stay. The Reserve America website was very easy to navigate and pre check in. We could have also gone to the ranger station at the entrance to the park to book our additional week. As some other reviews have mentioned, some of the sites are very close together and/or in the middle of a field with little to no shade or privacy. Thankfully, most (if not all) of the hundreds of sites at this campground are well documented on YouTube so you can check it out before you go. That, and there's a picture of the site on the Reserve America website. The bathhouse facilities are indeed rustic! Four stalls and three showers on the ladies' side with septic tissue and plastic shower curtains. The facilities were always clean and well stocked - albeit sometimes had wet floors. Other reviews have mentioned long lines to use the facilities, but that was not my experience. I'm sure 4th of July weekend and other peak times would have a wait for a shower. I also feel the need to defend the campground from some of the negative reviews on here: this is a STATE PARK campground. Complete with ants, mosquitos, and ticks. This campground is funded by the STATE OF RHODE ISLAND and not privately held/ for profit like a KOA. There are no RV hookups at the individual sites! You can't run your generator after 8pm and you can't party well into the night either! If you are looking for a sterile campground smelling like DEET and bleach, may I recommend one of the many trailer parks that can be found in the area. Any complaints about the lack of facilities should be brought to your state rep and/or senator so that they can advocate on your behalf to increase funding for the parks. Duh. As for those who complained that they couldn't "commune with nature:" this is a STATE PARK! People will come here with their loud dogs and even louder kids. You want peace and quiet? I can recommend many backwoods camping spots in Montana, Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming. A lot of the sites aren't very quiet or private, so I would recommend doing your research before booking. The 600 loop of Legiontown (the sites that back up to the wildlife preserve especially) are private, shaded, and each have their own little hidden trail that connects to the larger Burlingame Park Trail that goes all through the state park. My only complaint is that the top screen of the woman's bathhouse door was missing last summer and again this summer. Not a huge deal, but should be an easy fix, no? Also, the camp store had the strangest hours (that were not posted anywhere). We found ourselves having to go into Westerly for ice and firewood multiple times. I cannot wait to come back later this summer, and every summer after that.

    I want to like this place for its decent location in Charlestown but the check in process is…read moreridiculous. I have camped at at least 100 campgrounds across the U.S. and no one else has made me stand at the desk and wait until the clocked ticked to 1 p.m. to be allowed into the campground. As I stood waiting several other people came in and were refused. 12:47 ... 12:55 ... A woman was trying to check in to her own site around 12:45 and they made her buy an $8 pass to go to her brother's site because she had to get in to see him before 1. A man asked if he could drive his 83 year old mom through for old times sake because she used to camp here as a kid and they said no unless he rented a site. I understand rules and policies but it's ridiculous. This campground has no hookups, has been closed and/or not taking reservations for quite some time, and isn't free! A little leniency would go a long way here.
