# 6 Waterfront RV Campgrounds With Hookups Under $10/Night With a Senior Pass

Waterfront RV camping with hookups is already hard enough to find at a low price. Finding places where the nightly rate can drop below $10 with an America the Beautiful Senior or Access Pass is even harder.

 

But there are still a few campgrounds where that can happen. These six waterfront RV campgrounds below can drop below $10 per night with the pass discount, one as low as $7 per night\! They also give campers direct water access, hookups, and a setting that still feels like a real getaway.

 

**Tip:** Prices, availability, and discount eligibility can change. Always check the campground listing before booking. The rates below are based on the lowest listed nightly price shown in the source data.
