Camping near Narragansett Pier
Narragansett Pier sits on Rhode Island's South County coast, with campgrounds clustered along Point Judith, the salt ponds, and the barrier beaches west toward Charlestown. Most RV-friendly options are within a 20-minute drive of the pier, mixing state-run coastal parks with privately owned family campgrounds inland.
The closest options are Fishermans Memorial State Park, a 91-acre state park and campground on Point Judith in the town of Narragansett, and Long Cove Marina and Seasonal Campground. A short drive west, Charlestown Breachway Campground sits on the east side of the Breachway within walking distance to the beach, with panoramic views of Block Island Sound and a boat launch known for some of the best salt water fishing in South County.
Inland options widen the search. Wordens Pond Family Campground sits on the shore of Rhode Island's largest freshwater pond in South Kingstown, and Wawaloam Campground in Richmond adds full-hookup sites and family amenities a short drive north. Together these five give RV renters a range of coastal and freshwater bases within easy reach of Narragansett Town Beach, Scarborough, and the Point Judith ferry to Block Island.
Things to do around Narragansett Pier
The town beaches and the Narragansett Pier seawall anchor most trips. Families split time between Narragansett Town Beach, Scarborough State Beach, and the calmer salt ponds behind the barrier islands. The Point Judith Lighthouse and the Block Island Ferry terminal are both a short drive from the pier.
Fishing is a defining activity here. The Breachway has a boat launch with limited parking and some of the best salt water fishing in South County, with striped bass and bluefish the common targets. Kayakers use Ninigret Pond and Point Judith Pond, and cyclists ride the paved William C. O'Neill Bike Path through South Kingstown.
Rainy-day backups include the URI Bay Campus, Newport's mansions across the bay, and the shops and seafood shacks along Ocean Road.

The camping season on Rhode Island's south coast is short and tightly booked. Fishermans Memorial State Park opens April 2 and closes October 30, and Charlestown Breachway runs April 15 through October 31. Private grounds run similar windows, with Wordens Pond Family Campground operating from spring through mid-fall.
July and August are the peak. Ocean temperatures are warmest, town beaches are fully staffed, and the ferry to Block Island runs on its full summer schedule. Sites at the coastal state parks book far in advance for these months, and holiday weekends tend to sell out first.
Late May, June, and September are the sweet spots for RV renters. Days are warm, crowds are thinner, and reservations are easier to land. Fall shoulder season brings quieter beaches and cooler nights, but Atlantic hurricane season peaks from late August into October. The state's coastline is exposed to flood damage from coastal storms, so trip planners should watch tropical forecasts closely.

Kevin James8 trips - Joined May 2021
Kevin was great in delivering and setting up the unit and going over the “how to”. It was clean - spacious enough to fit our family of 5 - and ran into no issues on our weekend rental. Highly recommended.
Chris H. - Jul 2025
My family had a great time camping with Maria and Kevin’s camper. They were very responsive when we needed help and friendly during drop off and pickup. Will book with them again if we don’t have our own camper next year!
Koury D. - Aug 2024
Chris was great communicating throughout the trip. Very easy to work with. Would recommend renting his Mini Whinnie
Richard J. - Dec 2025
Chris was super easy to work with, and having the Bego delivered and picked up was a game changer! Homecoming has never been as good. We highly recommend Chris and his Mini Bego, they totally over delivered!

How to book campgrounds near Narragansett Pier
Rhode Island's state campgrounds all use one reservation system. For camping reservations at Rhode Island State Campgrounds, contact ReserveAmerica at 1-877-742-2675 or visit reserveamerica.com. Reservations can be made up to 12 months in advance, which is what fills summer weekends at Fishermans Memorial State Park and Charlestown Breachway Campground.
Charlestown Breachway Campground has an important restriction for RV renters. Due to the environmentally sensitive location, every camping unit must contain manufacturer installed, permanent holding tanks for potable water, grey water, and black water. Aftermarket installations may require documentation. Confirm the rental unit qualifies before booking.
Private campgrounds including Wordens Pond Family Campground, Wawaloam Campground, and Long Cove Marina and Seasonal Campground book directly through the operator by phone or their own websites.
What to expect on site
Site style varies widely across the five options. At Fishermans Memorial State Park, campsites 1-105 are full hookups, campsites 141-182 are electric only, and campsites 106-140 have no hookups. Each site has a table, fire ring, and grate, and most RV sites are 50 feet. Generator use is permitted between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM only, and the park has a dump station and drinking water spigots.
Charlestown Breachway Campground is bare-bones by design. It accommodates 75 trailers, with no tents or pop-ups, and offers a saltwater beach, sewage pumpout, and boat launch. Pets are not allowed. Expect close spacing and no utility hookups, in exchange for direct beach access.
Wordens Pond Family Campground and Wawaloam Campground are more traditional private parks with water and electric hookups, dump stations, showers, and family amenities.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Narragansett Pier, RI
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Narragansett Pier, RI?
RV rental in Narragansett Pier is more affordable than you might think, especially when compared to Newport hotel rates in July. On RVezy, travel trailers typically start around $70 to $120 per night, campervans run $130 to $180, and Class C motorhomes average $175 to $250 nightly. For a cheap RV rental in Narragansett Pier, target the May or September shoulder season, when beach weather is still great but weekly rates drop noticeably. Booking midweek, choosing a slightly older travel trailer, and asking your host to deliver to Fishermen's Memorial State Park (so you skip needing a tow vehicle) are three quick ways to stretch your budget on a Narragansett Pier RV trip.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Narragansett%20Pier%2C%20Rhode%20IslandDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Narragansett Pier?
Good news: your regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Narragansett Pier. Rhode Island does not require a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) or any special endorsement for motorhomes used for personal travel, and virtually every RV on RVezy falls well within standard license limits. To be an approved driver on RVezy, you generally need to be at least 25 years old with a valid license, and RVezy verifies your ID right inside the platform during booking. Visiting from abroad? Pick up an International Driving Permit (IDP) from your home auto club before you fly into T.F. Green, and you're cleared to cruise Ocean Road.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat's included for protection and peace of mind on my booking?
Every RVezy booking in Narragansett Pier comes with a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance built in, so you can focus on the surf at Narragansett Town Beach instead of worst-case scenarios. The protection plan covers accidental damage to the RV during your trip, and you choose the coverage level that fits your comfort during checkout (the host doesn't pick it for you). Combined with around-the-clock roadside help for flat tires, lockouts, or jump starts, it's the safety net that makes first-time renting an RV genuinely stress-free.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if my plans change? Is there a cancellation policy?
Yes, and it's designed to keep your booking low-risk. RVezy sets the cancellation policy (not individual hosts), and it includes a money-back grace period after you book so you can lock in that perfect oceanfront rig without overthinking it. Specifics depend on how far out from your trip you cancel. You'll see the full policy details during checkout and in your RVezy account. If a host ever cancels on you, RVezy refunds your booking or provides credits so your trip plans stay protected. Pro tip: book early to claim the best campervan rental Narragansett Pier inventory for summer weekends, knowing you have flexibility if life shifts.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Narragansett Pier RV trip?
Absolutely. A pet-friendly RV rental in Narragansett Pier is easy to find on RVezy. Just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter when you search, and you'll see listings from hosts who welcome dogs (and sometimes cats). Once you arrive, leashed dogs are welcome on Narragansett Town Beach in the off-season (October 1 through April 30), and Burlingame State Park Campground, about 20 minutes south, allows pets on leash throughout the campground. Message your host before booking to confirm any pet fee or size limits so check-in is seamless.
narragansettri.gov/444/Town-BeachCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Narragansett?
Yes, RV delivery in Narragansett Pier is one of the most popular options on RVezy, especially for first-timers who'd rather skip driving a big rig across the Pell Bridge. Many local hosts will deliver and set up your motorhome rental in Narragansett Pier directly at Fishermen's Memorial State Park, Long Cove Family Campground in Charlestown, or even a private driveway in Point Judith. They'll level the RV, connect water and power, walk you through every system, and pick it up at the end of your stay. Use the Delivery filter when searching, and message a couple of hosts about their delivery radius and fee so you can compare.
riparks.ri.gov/locations/campground/fishermens-memorial-state-parkHow does mileage work, and where can I realistically drive?
Most RVezy hosts in the Narragansett Pier area include a daily mileage allowance (often 100 to 150 free miles per day) with the option to prepay extra miles at a discount, and some offer an RV rental with unlimited mileage for road trippers. Rhode Island is compact, so you have huge range: Newport is about 25 miles north, Providence is roughly 35 miles, Mystic, Connecticut is about 30 miles west, Cape Cod's Sagamore Bridge is roughly 75 miles, and the White Mountains of New Hampshire are about 200 miles north. For a short RV road trip from Narragansett Pier, you can easily hit Newport mansions and Mystic Seaport in one weekend without burning through miles.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Narragansett%20Pier%2C%20Rhode%20IslandWhere are the best campgrounds near Narragansett Pier?
You're spoiled for choice. The best campgrounds near Narragansett Pier start with Fishermen's Memorial State Park, just a few miles from the Pier with around 182 sites in Galilee, close to the Block Island Ferry. Burlingame State Park Campground in Charlestown (about 20 miles) offers wooded sites on Watchaug Pond with a swimming beach. Long Cove Family Campground sits on a saltwater cove great for kayaking. Charlestown Breachway is a self-contained-RV-only oceanfront area for hardcore beach lovers. A bit farther inland, Wawaloam Campground in Richmond has a pool and is family friendly. Reserve Fishermen's Memorial and Burlingame as soon as Rhode Island State Parks opens bookings for the upcoming season, they sell out fast.
riparks.ri.gov/locations/campground/fishermens-memorial-state-parkWhen is the best time to visit Narragansett Pier in an RV?
Late June through early September is peak Narragansett, with average highs around 78 to 82 degrees Fahrenheit and warm Atlantic water by August. The smart-money window is June and September: mid-70s daytime temps, thinner crowds at Scarborough State Beach, and lower nightly rates. May and October are beautiful for RV camping in Narragansett Pier if you want quiet hikes and lighthouse visits, just pack layers since coastal nights can drop into the 40s. Winter rentals are limited and weather can swing icy, so most travelers aim for the May-to-October sweet spot.
weather.gov/box/I've never driven an RV before. How does pickup actually work?
First time renting an RV? You're in great company, and RVezy hosts in Narragansett are known for patient, thorough walkthroughs. At pickup, your host will typically spend 30 to 60 minutes showing you how to start the generator (if equipped), switch from shore power to battery, dump the tanks, deploy the awning, and operate the propane stove. You can record the demo on your phone for later reference. For driving confidence, stick to Route 1 and Route 1A on your first day and avoid the narrow streets in downtown Newport. If nerves are high, just book a host who offers delivery and you'll never have to drive the RV at all.
dot.ri.gov/travel/What happens if something goes wrong on the road?
You're covered around the clock. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance, so if you get a flat on Route 138 heading to Jamestown, run out of fuel near Point Judith Lighthouse, or need a jump start at Scarborough Beach, one call gets help dispatched. RVezy's customer support team is also reachable before, during, and after your trip through the Help Center for anything non-mechanical. Your host is typically your fastest resource for RV-specific quirks (they know their rig best), and most Narragansett-area hosts respond quickly via the RVezy app.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take the RV across state lines or into Canada?
Yes to interstate travel, and often yes to Canada with advance notice to your host. Rhode Island is sandwiched between Connecticut and Massachusetts, so a Narragansett Pier RV trip naturally crosses state lines, and that's fully allowed on RVezy rentals. Popular routes include south to Mystic and the Connecticut shoreline, north to Boston (about 75 miles), and up to Acadia National Park, Maine (around 350 miles). Cross-border travel to Canada is allowed with most hosts when you give advance notice so insurance and paperwork are squared away, just message before booking. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals because insurance coverage doesn't extend there.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat should I budget for fuel?
Fuel is one of the more predictable line items on a Narragansett trip. Rhode Island gas prices typically track close to the national average (check GasBuddy before you go). Most travel trailers tow at 10 to 14 mpg behind a pickup, Class C motorhomes return 8 to 12 mpg, and campervans often hit 16 to 20 mpg. For a typical 4-day getaway driving 250 miles around South County, Newport, and Jamestown, expect roughly $60 to $120 in gas for most rigs. Pro tip: fuel up off Route 4 in North Kingstown before heading south, prices on Route 1A near the Pier can run higher in summer.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground?
For summer weekends at Rhode Island State Parks (Fishermen's Memorial, Burlingame, Charlestown Breachway), book the day reservations open for the upcoming season through the Rhode Island State Parks online reservation system. Those sites can sell out quickly for July and August. Private campgrounds like Long Cove and Wawaloam often have more flexibility but still fill 2 to 3 months out for prime weekends. For midweek stays or May/September visits, you can frequently book 2 to 4 weeks ahead. Insider tip: if Fishermen's Memorial is full, check for cancellations regularly, the system releases them in real time.
riparks.ri.gov/things-to-do/campingWhat are the local roads like for driving an RV?
South County roads are very RV-friendly once you know the layout. Route 1 and Route 4 are divided highways with wide lanes and easy on-ramps, perfect for any size rig. Route 1A through downtown Narragansett Pier is scenic but narrow with parallel parking, so larger Class A motorhomes are better off parking at Fishermen's Memorial and exploring downtown by car or bike. If you're heading to Newport via the Pell (Newport) Bridge, check the posted height clearance for your rig before crossing, and confirm the route works for your RV's height with your host.
dot.ri.gov/travel/What amenities can I expect at Narragansett-area campgrounds?
Most campgrounds near Narragansett Pier offer the essentials you need for a smooth stay. Fishermen's Memorial State Park provides water and electric hookups (no sewer at site, but a dump station is on-site), hot showers, restrooms, and a playground. Burlingame State Park has a similar setup plus a swimming beach on Watchaug Pond. Long Cove Family Campground offers full hookups including sewer. For dumping tanks and filling fresh water, Fishermen's Memorial and Fort Getty Recreation Area in Jamestown both have public dump stations. Cell signal is generally solid across South County, and many private parks offer Wi-Fi, though speeds can slow on busy August evenings.
riparks.ri.gov/locations/campground/fishermens-memorial-state-parkWhat's actually inside the RV I'm renting?
RVezy listings in Narragansett Pier range from cozy campervans (Class B) sleeping 2 with a small kitchenette and wet bath, to family-sized Class C motorhomes sleeping 6 to 8 with a full kitchen, separate bedroom, bathroom with shower, dinette, and roof-mounted air conditioning. Travel trailers offer similar layouts without the cab. Expect a fridge, microwave, propane stove, hot water, and a furnace as standard features in most listings. Many rentals include a TV, some have Wi-Fi boosters or a generator (handy if you boondock at Charlestown Breachway with no hookups), and seatbelts are clearly noted in each listing. Filter by Sleeps count and RV type on RVezy to match your crew perfectly.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Narragansett%20Pier%2C%20Rhode%20IslandAre there add-ons I can request, and how does pickup and dropoff work?
Yes, and the right add-ons make a Narragansett RV trip noticeably better. Common host add-ons include linen and towel packages, camp chairs and outdoor rugs, kayaks or stand-up paddleboards (great for Point Judith Pond), bike racks, generators, and propane refills. Pickup is usually at the host's home at a scheduled window, with the walkthrough included. Dropoff mirrors pickup, with a quick condition check. Many hosts offer Instant Book, so you can confirm your motorhome rental in Narragansett Pier in minutes. Confirm the mileage and generator-hour policies upfront so there are no surprises.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Narragansett%20Pier%2C%20Rhode%20IslandHow do payment and the security deposit work?
Payment runs entirely through the RVezy platform, so you never hand cash to a host. You'll pay your rental total at booking with a credit or debit card, and the security deposit is placed as a separate temporary hold on your card before pickup (amount varies by host and rig). Assuming the RV comes back in the condition you took it, the hold is released after your trip. To avoid issues, do a thorough walkthrough video at pickup and dropoff, follow the host's mileage and generator policies, and message any concerns through the app so everything is documented. Easy, transparent, and protected.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksWhat's a great first-time RV itinerary from Narragansett Pier?
Here's a family RV trip Narragansett Pier itinerary that works beautifully for first-timers. Day 1: pick up your rig (or have it delivered) to Fishermen's Memorial State Park, walk to Salty Brine Beach and grab lobster rolls in Galilee. Day 2: drive about 20 minutes to Jamestown, hit Beavertail Lighthouse and the tide pools, then cross to Newport for Cliff Walk and a Mansion tour. Day 3: head about 30 miles west to Mystic Seaport and Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut. Day 4: return via Charlestown for a quiet morning at Burlingame and Blue Shutters Beach. You'll cover four classic New England experiences without ever driving more than an hour at a time.
