Private 2.2-Acre RV Basecamp on Route 3 | Loaded with Amenities | Centrally Located near I-95 Welcome to your private Rhode Island basecamp! Set privately in the backyard behind a vacant, vintage single-story structure, this dedicated 2.2-acre RV site offers complete privacy from the road, directing all attention to the open green space, outdoor amenities, and dark night skies. Tailored for road-trippers, dog owners, and active travelers, it is an ideal spot to plug in, unwind, and recharge before your next day’s adventure. Located directly on Route 3 with close access to I-95, this site is centrally located so you can be on the road in minutes—making easy day trips to the beaches of Watch Hill, historic Newport, local wineries, golf courses, or nearby hiking and fishing trails. Amenities for RVers & Outdoor Lovers: Utility Access: Dedicated 30-amp electric hookup (moveable) and clean, pristine potable water. Epic Natural Fire Pit: An impressively large, natural stone fire pit designed for gathering, story-swapping, and stargazing under dark night skies. Outdoor Comforts: Screened-in rustic porch, propane grill, and an outdoor dining table with chairs and umbrella. Convenient Facilities: Outdoor rinse shower, hot and cold utility spigots, and an on-site portable restroom to help you conserve your RV holding tanks. Pet Setup: Dog-friendly with two installed dog runners plus a moveable tie-out post available for your pets. A Note on Setting & Sound: This property offers a unique blend of natural surroundings and prime transit convenience. While the backyard features dark skies and mature greenery, the property is located directly on Route 3 with Interstate 95 running behind the property line. Recent clearing and construction in the corridor have opened up the buffer, so highway and road traffic is clearly audible outdoors. If you are looking for complete deep-woods isolation to sit outside all day, this site may not be the right fit. But if you want a private, amenity-rich launchpad to recharge your rig after a full day exploring coastal New England, this spot delivers unbeatable convenience.Private 2.2-Acre RV Basecamp on Route 3 | Loaded with Amenities | Centrally Located near I-95 The Space: Welcome to your private Rhode Island basecamp!

This campsite offers a mix of privacy and convenience, with many visitors appreciating the amenities such as the fire pit and outdoor shower. It's a popular spot for those seeking a peaceful getaway close to nature, although some have noted the road noise and presence of mosquitoes and ticks. The host is frequently praised for being responsive and helpful. While most reviews are positive, a few guests found the location less ideal due to the proximity to a busy road and a rundown trailer.

Road noise and mosquitoes

23 ft campervan · With pets

This was one of the worst hipcamps I have stayed at. My fault for not looking closer but I booked for the electrical hookup, which was the only good thing. The spot is in a backyard behind a rundown trailer. Not an ideal view. Add in the road noise and the worst mosquitos on my trip and I, honestly, didn’t want to get out of the RV. Wouldn’t be worth staying if it it was a $20 site. Glad it was only one night

Great Hipcamp stay!

24 ft travel trailer · With pets

Everything was exactly how it was described. I was able to hook up water in 30 amp electric to my camper. The outdoor shower with hot and cold water was pretty cool. It was nice to have the Porta potty so I didn’t fill up my camper. The fire pit was pretty cool. Our Host was very informative about things in the area and was also responded fairly quickly to questions I sent him.

The place is just as described. Host provided directions, easy to find. The campsite was clean and we had plenty of space to set up our class C w slides out. There was some road noise but it wasn’t that bad. The site is peaceful. Always nice to have access to water, electricity, a grill and a fire pit. The dog run was also nice to have.

We had yet another wonderful stay as guest at KS Joy's peaceful, woodsy spot. Everything you need is there!! Excellent communications and always a welcoming vibe. Bright vibrant morning walks on the beach and for the cold, BLUSTERY rain days, I'd recommend the nearby new American Impressionist museum. Not being a huge museum person, I really did appreciate wonderful paintings and super nice people there. I could go on.....and on... THANK YOU KS !!

22 ft pop-up camper · With pets

The site itself was pretty and the outdoor shower was nice. We have a pop up so you do definitely hear quite a bit of road noise, but you also hear the birds etc. so it’s kind of a mix. The host was responsive and pleasant when I asked questions. The location is easy to get to, and the recommendations for food and things were good. The bad thing was the ticks, they were everywhere so we weren’t able to sit outside at all. Our dog is on preventative so they didn’t latch on to her and we also had bug spray for us..…but they were frequently on our mat right outside the door and even up on the chairs. I know they have been very bad lately, but it was just a little too much.

I’ve camped here a few times, I’ve already left stellar reviews so I’ll just post a few pics of tent camping here. Road noise can be a little bit loud at times but it does die down and nature’s sounds take over.

Enjoyed this Hipcamp, there is some road noise, but it didn’t bother us too much. The ease of access to the site, and the ability to pull all the way through was really nice. Also, the host was very kind and welcoming. We’ll return for sure in the spring.

I know this is listed as an RV spot but it’s also a great tent spot & car camping area as well. Been here a few times and will be back again. Private, safe and scenic, what else could you ask for. Theres also a clean porta potty on site and an epic, natural stone firepit.

We had such a wonderful stay at this campsite! The host was incredibly accommodating and always quick to respond! She was amazing! It made the whole experience feel easy and welcoming from start to finish. We brought our two kids and our German Shepherd! The campsite was peaceful, clean, and thoughtfully set up. It was also great because it was super close to stores and restaurants as well. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we would happily come back again. Highly highly recommend for families and dog owners! 🏕️🐾✨

Nice spot to bug out or go explore

20 ft travel trailer · With pets

KSJoy’s property was as described and a nice spot to hang out for a couple of days before the busy holiday season kicks in. Full electric hookup. No water this time of year (was just shut off last week). Nice area. Drove around. Followed the host’s recommendations for local food. Great advice! Had our four dogs with us. The property is close to a fairly busy road so having good recall (or we brought a fencing system) is essential. The road noise Fri-Sun in mid Nov. was not an issue. The host was very communicative and answered all questions but was hands off which we liked. Highly recommend.

Perfect if you live around hartford and want a quick getaway spot. Very acominating. Private but not far from food, beaches, and shopping. We got there when it was dark out so it was helpful that all we needed to do was set up the tent, they had everything else you could need there.

We enjoyed staying at KSJoy's land. It was exactly as described. You can hear some road noise due to the closeness of the road but because of the home on the property, it's still very private. Our dogs enjoyed being off leash and there was a good amount of room for them to roam around. If in the area we would not hesitate to stay again.

I love the variety of camping styles you can have on KSJoy’s property. I have hammock camped, tent camped and will absolutely be back for a car campout soon. There is a gorgeous, rustic stone fire pit that I haven’t used yet but may on my next trip. The onsite bathroom is a welcome amenity. The yard is beautiful. There is a bit of distant road noise but it does not detract from the peaceful surroundings. I already can’t wait to come back. Five stars all the way… if there was a star rating 😊

Wanted to meet up with friends in between where we live and NYC and it was the perfect distance. Super nice outdoor shower and very cool fire pit. Also perfectly centralized where you can either go to a beach or a walk in a state forest. Don’t recommend tent camping as I-95 gets very loud at night and the main road next to the house can be loud as well. Otherwise had a lovely time.

Calm and serene place with everything to make a camping stay easy and thoroughly enjoyable. A quick drive to the beach or Westerly to grab supplies. We relaxed, had a late eve fire in the firepit and cooked great meals on the grill.`It was our first HipCamp experience and it was perfect in our new mini camper. The birds singing in the morning throughout the woods.. priceless and soooooo much better than a phone alarm! THANK YOU!

It was exactly what we needed. Our dogs are a little reactive and this was secluded enough that they were able to relax and have a good time. It's pretty close to the road, but the road wasn't busy. It was very nice to be able to chill by the fireplace with the dogs and just be. Highly recommend!!
