Moving on - if you are going to the campground, you will enjoy nice large sites and a cool party atmosphere. There are golf carts everywhere. You actually will need a golf cart to enjoy that aspect of the campground. There is a limited number of them and you can't reserve ahead of time so if you don't get there early you will be out of luck. If you don't get one or don't want to add $50 to each night of your camping bill, refer to my warning above because when you injure your knee at the water park and getting around is difficult, you'll be limited to your campsite unless you're lucky enough to know someone else with a golf cart.
If you are camping at Bethpage and planning on going to the water park, I strongly urge you to use caution. There are hidden dangers. I was injured there three weeks ago and still in pain. The red and yellow water slides land into a shallow pool. No instruction on how to properly ride these slides is provided by the staff or signage. I rode the red slide down on my back, feet first, which I thought to be a safe way to ride. I landed in the pool and hit my knee so hard. Needless to say, that was the first and only time I rode that slide during my visit. I also found the painted concrete on the pool deck to be very slippery. None of us fell but had a few close calls, even not running. I did make the campground aware of my injury. The lifeguard gave me a bandaid. The management gave me nothing but a "well it hasn't happened before" which I find hard to believe given the shallow depth of the landing pool from such a large slide.
We camped here for labor day weekend. The facility and grounds are great. Staff was nice. From the time we pulled in in the pouring rain. The staff led us to our site and helped get us on the site. No complaints at all.
Was there on Labor Day weekend. They did an excellent job handling the crowd. Of course the grounds and facilities are top notch. Only complaint, and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5, is that the staff didn't enforce the "quiet hours" rule on Sunday night (remember holiday weekend). Several groups camping near us played their music very loud and did not turn it down or off at 11pm. Otherwise we had a great weekend.
You want to definitely visit the mini golf and ice cream shop. They were both great. But again, a golf cart is a must here or you will be driving your car/truck and leaving the campground to get there.
Staff is great and the camp grounds are wonderful. Only thing I don't like is the showers. They don't have hot water. It us cool to warm. And a one handed pull down string. You can't get a good shower having to use 1 hand to keep the cooler water running. I don't like cool showers especially in 50 ish degrees weather. There are plenty of places to eat in town 5 minutes or less away if you like. But I come camping to eat and enjoy the cam ping life other that the shower issue. It is great. Just need handles and warm to hot water.
We had a great visit. My parents own a cottage there and have enjoyed it for many years. We stayed in their rental cabins that were very clean and had every amenity that we needed for our stay. They have a small general store for goods so you don't have to leave the park for most items. But if you do, there is a grocery store very close by. They do have large pond and beach for swimming and a pool and water park. There is a boat slip too. If you like to enjoy the peace and quiet, I would suggest the weekdays. The weekends tend to be very busy.
My biggest complaint and what would keep me from going back,,,,,,. THE GOLF CARTS ARE OUT OF CONTROL!!!!!!!!! My wife and i were literally afraid to let our kids ride their bikes. They are speeding up and down every road with music blasting. Most look to be kids under the legal driving age. But its definitely legals and grownups too. Im one to have a good time. But it needs to shut down and be a little more quiet at quiet time which is 11. That being said. We already have a weekend reserved for the Oyster festival which will not be ideal camping there either. So we always give places a few chances to impress
Do avoid the pool side cafe. The service and food was terrible.
