This place is magical. Yes there are some mosquiotos and bugs but you’re in the middle of nowhere - it’s to be expected and really isn’t as bad as the person below makes out. I can only assume that they are used to 5* hotels surrounded by “things to do”. If you want a little adventure and beautiful scenery and quiet then this is your place. The staff were great, we had an amazing stay
I went at end of season. I didn't have a "glamp" so I am not reviewing it. Great time! Expect to wake up early because the catbirds will wake you. Exceptionally peaceful. BRING your bug spray! The real stuff, with DEET because salt marsh mosquitoes are built differently.
The area around Watch Hill Campground is stunning. The people working there are lovely and helpful and the other guests were friendly and respected quiet hours. However this year, cuts to the NATIONAL PARK SERVICE are clearly affecting the quality of the experience for all. No ranger programs during the week; no lifeguards during the week that I could see. The showers were moldy and filthy and the few shower curtains remaining were torn and black with mold. The water is cold of course but that is to be expected. I couldn’t bring myself to enter the shower. Our glamping tent had a broken zipper and a huge tear in the screen and there was no one to report this to. Mosquitoes also bad but that is no one’s fault. The beauty of the place makes it worth a visit but be prepared.
