Customer Reviews
The "historic" Bethel Woods campground is huge and beautiful. You can watch the sunrise on one side and the sunset on another. 24 hour security, which is completely unobtrusive, made me feel much better about sleeping there on a night when there was no show. The campground is much more crowded when there is a show at the (formerly Woodstock Festival) venue next door. The campground is very expensive to sleep in your car - even more expensive if you try their higher end options! But car campers have well-lit, VERY clean, private toilet/shower rooms and friendly staff, and it is amazingly peaceful. I loved it here!
Had an amazing experience staying in one of the luxury glamping accommodations at the campground at Bethel. Staff was super helpful & informative. Tent had everything we needed & more including complimentary water, wine, coffee & even a goodie bag with sunscreen & a poncho. Full bathroom, AC, golf cart service to the green room, the perks were endless. 2 minute walk to VIP entrance. Cannot wait to stay again!
Car Camping at Historic Campsite Bethel Woods is the way to go! Van camping for us - makes the whole concert experience so much easier and more fun. You can chill at the campsite or fire pits to chat to fellow campers, before the show, then hop on the “magic bus” that runs every 30 minutes (and even passes by the historic concert site). The shuttle drops you right at a convenient shuttle only location and picks you up afterward, so there’s no stress about parking, long lines, or late-night driving. Pro tip: rent your lawn chairs online! The pickup line is way shorter, which means more time to grab a snack, enjoy a drink, and scout out that perfect sunny spot on the lawn before the crowds roll in. The ride back is just as entertaining—and best of all, you completely avoid long exit lin
Lovely campground. Pavilion camping was worth the price to be so close to venue. You’re supposed to move your car after you unpack but some folks left their cars in campsite. Bathrooms and showers were clean and plentiful but a bit of a walk from our site. If you arrive early like we did, it’s a long walk to museum because the concert area is fenced off and closed, so you have to circumnavigate. There were shuttles but a bit of a wait.
This was our first time “Car Camping “ at BW and it was absolutely fabulous. The price is great ( you get a 30’x30’ space ) our tent and vehicle fit perfectly.The location is perfect, a short distance from the venue, we could see the venue from our campsite. There are so many positives: All our “neighbors campers” were friendly and cheerful, there are 2 gas fire pits to gather around, there is a shuttle to get you back and forth from the venue, restrooms/ showers were spotless, there is even a Cell Phone Charging Station!! Groovy Grub located on the campground for great breakfast and lunch/ dinner options ( check the hours so you can plan accordingly) and also Groovy Goods for camping staples and gifts. But most of all we want to give a big shout out to the staff. Everyone was so kind, kno
