Named for the old Methodist camp-meeting grounds just inland, this bay beach pairs a full bathhouse and gated lot with a shoreline that narrows fast as the tide comes in.

Common questions
Is Campground in Eastham open today?
Open, no advisory on record in the latest MA DPH posting (updated 2026-07-16). MA DPH is the authority. Check the status the morning you go.
Where do I park if the lot is full?
This is one of only four Eastham beaches selling $30 daily passes (with Cook's Brook, First Encounter, and Wiley Park); the lot has a gate attendant, no designated overflow, so arrive early on summer weekends.
Are there restrooms at Campground?
Public restrooms are listed near the beach. Seasonal hours are common, so they may be closed off-season.
What rules should I know at Campground?
Small beach that gets tight at high tide. No alcohol, open fires, or glass containers.
