Camping is an immensely popular activity available at several county parks. Large tracts of scenic woods and fields have been developed into camping areas, providing picturesque settings for our camping enthusiasts. Combine that with a variety of recreational opportunities available at all our campgrounds and you're set for a rewarding camping experience. Several kinds of camping opportunities exist at our campgrounds. West Hills County Park is exclusively designed for youth group camping. Blydenburgh, Cathedral Pines, Southaven, Indian Island, Sears Bellows and Cedar Point campgrounds offer trailer, tent, youth group (with the exception of Southaven), and club camping areas. The Smith Point campground offers tent and trailer camping year round and outer beach camping for self-contained vehicles only. Shinneock East has outer beach camping for 100 self-contained vehicles and Theodore Roosevelt currently offers self-contained camping on the outer beach. At Cupsogue, up to twenty-five self-contained campers may utilize sites adjacent to the outer beach. At Meschutt Beach there is limited camping for self-contained campers and trailers in the west parking lot. The camping season generally runs from April to October, with some exceptions. Check with each park for specific opening and closing dates. Reservations for camping at most campgrounds can be made with your valid Green Key card. Refer to the section on the Green Key Card. A portion of the campsites remain unreserved and are available on a first come first served basis at all campgrounds except Smith Point.

Outer Beach camping is for self contained campers only, no tents.

Also, please review the Campground Rules and Regulations for the campgrounds.
