 PIDo you mean Seaport Campground in Mystic, CT?  [link=http://www.seaportcampground.com/]Seaport Campground[/link]  It is not associated with Old Mystic Seaport.
 
 We were there in October of 2001 for our Columbus Day weekend trip.  The campground is roughly in two parts.  One section is seasonals.  Unless they are really crowded, they aren t likely to stick you in there.  The other section is basically an open field with only occasional small trees, so there is very little shade.
 
 The Restrooms were immaculate, but were probably being used only 5-10% of the amount that they would see in mid summer.
 
 The pool was closed for the season.

 PIAustin,
 Thanks for the info. It probably is notoneto visit in the heat of the summer huh?.We were actually planning on this weekend but with more rain coming in we decided not to go. Are there any other ones in the area that you know are pretty nice and somewhat shaded? Thanks --PI

 PIWe never cancel based on a forecast.  Weather forecasts in SE New England are accurate for the next six hours, useful for the next 12-24 hours, and only meant for entertainment beyond 24 hours.
 
 I can t recommend another campground in the area, because that  is the only one we ve stayed at.  We are only 2-1/2 hours from there, and so normally would make a visit a day trip.  The Columbus Day Weekend we spent there in  01 was an exception.

No Mary,
We didn't end up there. It is snowing today and I am trying to be positive about it almost being Spring. This year we may again go up to the great north woods on new hampshire. It is beautiful country,.
