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 :)

If you were (or have) the little kid who had the toy train setup every holiday season, you’re going to go ballistic over this place. Rocky Neck State Park is home to some of the country’s finest train watching. Kick back on the Long Island Sound, watch the railroad cars roll by and try to guess how many there are until the caboose.Of course, there are a whole lot of other things to do in this beautiful area. The beach here rivals the best in Connecticut, with soft white sand that makes it ideal for swimming. If you get tired of watching trains, you can watch birds instead. Osprey, cranes, herons and mute swans all frequent the marshes. So how about it? All aboard to Rocky Neck!

Straddling the towns of East Haddam and Lyme, Gillette Castle State Park receives a whopping 300,000 visitors each year. But then again, that’s just kinda what happens when you have a flippin’ medieval castle here. The landmark castle was once a private residence commissioned and designed by actor, director and playwright William Gillette, known for his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes.Besides touring the castle and its museum, the park entertains many traditional recreational opportunities, but also some far less common ones too. It’s one of the few places in the state where you can river camp, and in honor of its history, still hosts many theatrical celebrations. It’s elementary dear reader, why you won’t want to skip over this one.

We are a small family farm where we raise animals and grow flowers/food. Our family home was built in 1739 and is situated near the street entrance.
As you enter the property, you will see two cottages, the oldest corn crib in the county, and a beautifully restored 1800s barn. There is a vintage-style camper to the left of the barn, located in an area where you can have privacy overlooking the pastures.
We live on the property and can assist guests with anything that they might need.
Guests are welcome to stroll around the property and enjoy all it has to offer. We have a farm store and education center opening summer of 2025! Check our website to see classes and offerings that you might take advantage of during your stay.
Please note, that we ask that guests do not enter the barn or fenced pasture without one of the farm owners (Molly & Diego). Our animals are accustomed to people, but livestock is unpredictable, especially to people that they do not know. There is plenty of area outside of the pasture that guests can enjoy. If you opt for a farm tour we promise that you will have plenty of interaction with our many animals.

Our family (and pup) absolutely loved staying at Two Herons. The farm was so peaceful and the cottage was well appointed and just perfect for the 2 night stay. When we arrived there was goat yoga happening and we were fortunate enough to cuddle with baby goats! Absolutely incredible stay .. can’t wait to come back!

Communication with Scott was great and the site felt private. The site really is a large area in the woods that has been cleared. The underbrush was quite thick in places which was fine for me because I was in a camper/trailer, but I imagine would be a bit uncomfortable if sleeping in a tent. We were just passing through and the site met all of our needs for the night!

This was a great campground! Tyler was a very accommodating host, even to the point of bringing firewood over to sell when I asked if he could. You choose your site based on what is currently unoccupied. Some of the sites are more up on a hill in an area eith more trees and them some sites are more grassy. There were very clean and well maintained portapotties with a foot pump sink across from them. There is an outdoor shower that is really just an enclosure with a shower head attached to a hose and the water was cold, but it honestly felt pretty good for how hot it was when I was camping! I had my dog with me and she had no issues either. I had a spiral stake with a long lead that kept her within our site area. I would be cautious as a lot if the trees in the grassy area where i was had poison ivy growing around their base. This was a really convenient site to get to Port Jefferson and other areas and there are A LOT of farmstands, wineries, amd other things to do nearby.

Perfect if you just want to get away for an easy weekend away. Plenty of stuff to do within 10 minutes of the site, my friend and I spent the better part of the weekend fishing. The provided fire pit and chairs are nice, plenty of wood around the property to make a fire, and it was cozy and comfortable. The site could be cleaned up of some of the less desirable vegetation (lots of thorny vines and plants) but other than that I have no complaints.

We had such an amazing stay and can’t recommend this enough! As a British couple travelling around in an RV, this was the perfect opportunity to experience a little slice of American country life, and it exceeded all of our expectations.
From the moment we arrived, the host made us feel so welcome and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Their kindness and hospitality really stood out and made our stay even more special.
One of the highlights was having a campfire lit for us in a large area, which made for a perfect evening under the stars. We also loved taking the kayaks out on the lake, the scenery was absolutely breathtaking and so peaceful.
The area behind the barn where we stayed was beautifully secluded and incredibly quiet, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The whole property is stunning, with so much natural beauty to enjoy.
You can really tell this is a place run by a family with genuinely good hearts who genuinely care about sharing their beautiful property and giving guests a memorable experience. We left feeling refreshed and grateful for such an authentic taste of American country life, Highly recommend!

We camped at Blackburn Farm for three nights. Water and electric hookup. It was excellent. A secluded spot but very close to Mystic Seaport, USS Nautilus Museum, and other sites. Chris was an excellent host and offered places to eat and things to see. He even provided a extra length of hose after I realized I didn't have a long enough to reach the water spicket. Can't recommend this spot enough. We will certainly recommend this to other friends and family. The only thing I would remind RVers about is the water hookup is approximately 40 feet away and the electric hookup is 15 amp, so not a enough to run your AC. However, we ran our fan and the site is nice and shady throughout most of the day, keeping the camper nice and cool.
