5 Awesome Campgrounds for Families in Rhode Island

Head to the great outdoors with your family for a weekend and enjoy one of Rhode Island’s many campgrounds. Packed with fun-loving staff members, clean facilities, and plenty of activities, you and your kids will be sure to love these five great campgrounds.

1. Oakleaf Family Campground, Chepachet, RI

This campground fosters a tight community. The grounds are family owned, and the owners work hard to keep the facility—which includes a pool—safe and clean for all visitors! Younger children will enjoy the small playground, and adults and kids alike can gather for a game on the bocce ball court! The grounds are pet-friendly, too.

3. Westwood Family Campground, Coventry, RI

This 80-acre campground is maintained by the Westwood YMCA on the Quidnick Reservoir.
