FAQs About RVing to US Open Golf

Does Shinnecock Hills Golf Club allow RV parking?

While Shinnecock Hills does not offer on-site RV spots, the satellite parking and nearby campgrounds are great alternatives. You can park your RV and then use shuttle transportation or a rideshare service to reach the course each day.

How far are the nearby campgrounds from the golf course?

There are multiple campgrounds that provide RV amenities that are within 10–40 minutes of the Shinnecock Hills Golf Club. Heavy traffic may occur during tournament week, so it's best to allow extra driving time each day.

The upscale Hamptons atmosphere is perfect for luxury RV travelers. When you're not watching championship golf, you can stop by one of the wineries, seafood restaurants, or nearby beaches.

Are pets allowed at nearby RV campgrounds?

Some of the nearby campgrounds, like Sears Bellows County Park, do allow pets, but not all. If you bring your furry friends, always confirm the campground's leash policies so you don't run into rule violations.

Where to Camp Near US Open Golf

Indian Island County Park is about 30 minutes from Shinnecock Hills Golf Club. Only some of the RV and trailer sites come with electric and water hookups, so be sure to book early to secure one.

RV Rental Tips for US Open Golf

Some of the older campgrounds have tight entrances, so it's important to double-check your RV's total height. Always pack leveling blocks since several of the camping spots have sandy or grassy surfaces. Cell service throughout the Hamptons region can be spotty; having a downloaded map will help you navigate more easily.

WHERE TO STAY

You have multiple nearby hotel options to choose from. Hamlet Inn is only five minutes from the championship grounds. It offers free parking, a seasonal outdoor pool, and convenient access to Southampton Village and nearby golf venues. You'll be only minutes from some of the area's top beaches and restaurants. The Sea Haven Resort Motel is another option that's only 5 minutes from the course. You'll also be a 10-minute drive from Meschutt Beach.

The garden and barbecue areas give you the ideal place to relax after spending the day at the tournament.
