What others are saying about this campground
Beeds Lake State Park is a great destination for campers looking for a quiet weekend getaway. The campground offers a variety of camping sites, including some right next to the lake, making it a great fishing destination. There are also plenty of tent sites, as well as parallel parking sites for RVs. The campground is well maintained and the bathrooms are the cleanest youll find in a state park. The lake is picturesque and the man-made waterfall is a great sight to see. There are plenty of activities to do, such as hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, and paddle boat rentals. The nearby town of Hampton is also worth a visit. The only downside is that the RV sites can be a bit close together, but for a family or friend gathering, it would be perfect.
