I've always heard that there are 2 types of rv parks: one is a parking lot, the other is a park. Tidewater is definitely a park!!

Quiet, close to town, nice sized campsites. Not far from beach and shopping. Would return anytime

This is a nice campground. Close to everything. Be prepared, if you enjoy tv, you get very little signal here and we could not even get our direct in. Also, no dogs allowed and speed limit STRICTLY enforced --walking speed.

My friend and I needed a tent site for a night on our road trip. They wouldn't let me make a reservation. Upon arrival, (6pm) (they close at 8) the female owner literally told my friend and I, "Are you checking in? Then get your butts in here. I'm leaving!" I was stunned by her rudeness and lack of professionalism.

Stepping into the office, all I saw on the desk was taped signs saying "NO this, NO that!" Very aggressively. She basically interrogated us before letting us in. Telling us 3 times that you have to pay for showers.

When we got to our tent site, it was HARD PACKED DIRT WITH ROCKS! All night I kept awake with highway traffic and stones in my back.

I'll never stay here again.

Been camping in the Hampton area for 47 years. The bad reviews here are accurate. The operators here are very unsociable, rude and angry people. I completely agree with the rules, walking speed, fires out by 11, noise curfew, etc. but these people are downright nasty about enforcing them. And the awful experiences with rude treatment at the front desk and on the phone abound as is evidenced by the reviews they get. I took my 82 year old mother there not long ago at her request and asked the woman at the front desk if I could drive her through to get a look at the place, as she is handicapped and can't walk far, so she could decide if she might want to stay there or not with a friend of hers that wanted to go. I was told by the woman in a matter-of-fact tone that she could walk through only. I told her again that my mom was handicapped and couldn't possibly walk the entire distance, and was told, coldly, that it didn't matter. Not sure what they're afraid an 82 year old woman might do that wouldn't meet with their approval, but well, OK then, fine, we won't be staying where we're obviously not welcome. I'm glad my mom was turned away, I don't think she would have been happy there. The management are not people persons, which, in my opinion, is a must for a campground, but they've been in business for many years operating as they do, probably making money, and don't care who they insult, turn away or treat poorly, as they've apparently done hundreds, if not thousands, of times since the campground has been there. Let them behave as they will, but I won't go there. I keep a boat at Rye harbor and am a six months out of the year local. These folks have a bad reputation with the locals. That should tell you something. There are plenty of other good campgrounds in the area. Try Sea Coast RV and Camping Resort (formerly Shel-Al), which is where we've usually gone since the early 1970's, and since it's close to Rye harbor, and is clean, modern, the people there are always pleasant and helpful, or one of the others, like Wakeda. Salisbury Beach State Reservation is great, too, if you can get in. Book early if you want to go there, it's always very busy during the summer season. If I could give Tidewater less than one star, I would.

Spotless campground, very strict rules, lousy wifi, but still worth it for the nice campground. They do enforce their rules, especially the driving speed, which is a walk speed. But it's worth it to keep little ones safe! In this area there isn't a lot to choose from for campgrounds. For us it's worth it because we stayed at the Black Bear campground and it was disgusting, then another one closer to Seabrook and it wasn't the cleanest either. They are friendly owners, just no nonsense. Relax, the rules are there to make everyone's stay a pleasant one. This campground shows pride of ownership.

If you can, camp somewhere else.
These people are rude to the point i wanted to hurt one of themesp.the man in the golf cart..his age saved his ass.the overall attitude of management is: too bad, those are the rules, if ya dont like it leaveof course, only after you have paid.the bad reviews here are NOT inacuratego somewhere elsethere is another place about one and a half miles away.big difference.

Just came with my husband to check out this campground. He was offered a walk through. He told the owner that I cannot walk far and needed to drive. She asked if I was in a wheelchair. I'm not but that shouldn't make any difference I cannot walk far because I'm disabled in my ability to walk any distance due to a fall injury and spine problems.
Was told to come later they don't allow you to drive through. Never experienced this anywhere. So definitely won't be staying here if this is a preview of the kind of people that own this place. Not very accommodating at all. Do not recommend for anyone handicapped, discriminatory owners. Only giving 1 star so I can make a comment.

Extremely clean well maintained campground. Friendly grandma at check in and helped a lot with directions. Pricy showers and fire wood. Shower 3 minutes $0.25 and you can't adjust the temperature, but very clean. Firewood $6 bundle but very dry and is hardwood. Just drive walking speed while in campground and you'll have no issues. Pool was very clean and decent size. Internet ducks most of the time. Will be back. Overall good campground

I stayed on a tent site. The site was extremely small (smallest I've ever seen). I had room for 1 car, 1 4-person tent and the picnic table. That was it. Sites are also very close together. There was about 18 inches between my site and my neighbors'. I think this might be okay if you knew your neighbors. But it did kind of feel like you were right on top of them.
The campground is pretty close to a highway so I could hear some traffic all night long.
The owners are VERY strict about the speeding limit (aka walking speed). But because the drive ways are so narrow, I can understand why they have that rule.
Bathrooms and showers were EXTREMELY clean. You do need to bring quarters for the showers. 1 quarter is 3 minutes.
Beach was about a 10 minute drive away. It was very easy to find. It was a straight shot down route 101.
