41mi from Shinnecock Hills · 3 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Groton, CT

The Sandbox campground was born from The Sandbox Indoor Beach Sports and Events facility, which mainly focuses on providing year round beach volleyball. We bought the property in 2015 and opened the facility in 2019. As it happens, it's a 12+ acre lot surrounded by wetlands, hiking and biking trails ... there will never be another building built within view of our facility. We are surrounded by nature, and will be forever. So what a great opportunity to offer camping and access to all of the forests, woodlands, wetlands and trails around! And if you're up for it, come play some beach volleyball and meet new lifelong friends :)

Weekend Trip to Blackburn Farm

Been staying at Blackburn farm every year for last three years. It is the perfect place to stay when visiting Mystic CT. Feels remote while only 10 minutes outside of downtown Mystic. Can’t go wrong with this spot.

I enjoyed my peaceful camping spot on Jessica's lovely land. There was plenty of firewood, if needed. I did not get to meet my host in person, but Jessica checked in by text to make sure I was doing ok. Her land is well maintained and the location is close to a State Park and to stores and shopping. The land is on a slight incline and it can get windy. Highly recommend and will make plans to return when it's a bit warmer!

Had a wonderful visit among the goats, the trees and the set up. If you like a nice safe out of the way place near Mystic this is it.

The area is very quiet and private. There is water and electric available although we didn't need it. Communication was excellent and host was friendly and accomodating. We enjoyed meeting the goats and sheep. Perfect stay .

This was our first HipCamp experience and it did not disappoint. Very beautiful and secluded property with lovely sheep and goats to keep you company. Chris was very responsive and accommodating during our visit. We will definitely stay here again when in the NE area!

Easy spot, close to boat ramp and park. Might be some noise at night and spots are close to each other, but fits the bill,

Loved this site! A little tricky to navigate to, but quite fun that’s it’s hidden away in the woods with not a traffic sound to be heard. The animals are so cute (fainting goats Marshmallow & Graham Cracker were a huge hit with the toddler), electric hookup is easy and potable water very nearby, and the hosts were so lovely, welcoming us and communicating promptly to make sure we were settled in alright. We got their recs for activities and food in the area, as well- would love to return to Mystic, and when we do, we’ll be staying here again!

Nice quiet place for an RV. We have a 31’ RV and had no troubles at all finding the place or parking. We’d definitely try to stay here again in the future.

The spot was perfect. Electric and water set up was spot on. Super close to Mystic, few town roads being you right there, which was what we were looking for. Chris was super responsive and the whole experience was lovely.

Great spot to stop for a few days and catch up on some remote work on the road. We invited Brendan to stop by and got a personal tour of the Sandbox beach volleyball facility and new amphitheater currently under construction. Really close to historic Mystic and Stonington, as well as, some pleasant short hikes! Brendan was very nice and accommodating. We're hoping to pass through next year to see the progress on the theater project!

Probably better for smaller campers because of the path up to the campsite. But once there, a secluded spot. The owner is very friendly and helpful and communicates well.

Weekend Trip to Blackburn Farm

Recommended to us by friends, we were happy to find it exceeded our expectations. Friendly host who gave us great tips on the area. The site was near Mystic Seaport Museum but also offered a hiking trail (around ponds and relatively flat — with turkeys and herons) and farm animals for company. A flat parking area with water and electric. We had a wonderful stay.
