Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is there a swimming pool?
A: YES!!! Our swimming pool and adult hot tub opened in August of 2016. Since becoming the new owners of Sunfox Campground in 2014, we added a 48-channel satellite cable TV system and a Jumping Pillow, the swimming pool & hot tub, our Spacenet Climber, Super Nova and playground spinners, a new playscape, with swings and a GaGa Ball Pit, an 80×40 event tent, an RC Racetrack, a Disc Golf Course, a new basketball court with pickleball, a soccer/football field 60 yards long by 30 yards wide, and 3 beach volleyball courts.
Q: Are there any seasonal sites still available for 2025?
A: We don’t have any seasonal sites at this time, as we have a long waiting list for the 2025 season, but we are optimistic that our 29 new sites will be open at some time in 2025…please see our Seasonal Info
Q: Do you have dances, bonfires, Bingo and other fun stuff?
A: Yes, we offer a full activity schedule, with special event weekends in the spring and fall, as well as daily events during the summer. We look forward to dodgeball, wagon rides and bonfires with mellow acoustic performers and much more. Check out our sample-summer-activity-schedule
Q: How many sites do you have?
A: We currently have 86 sites, of which about 45 are “seasonals”, with 2 on-site Park Model rentals and transient sites also available for weekly and weekend reservations. We have received our zoning approvals to add 29 new sites with 50AMP and full hook-ups, and will have them available at some point during 2025!
Q: Do you have cable TV?
A: We have a Dish Network 48-channel satellite cable TV system. For more details, including channels, see our WiFi and TV link.
Q: Do you allow pets?
A: Yes, we are pet-friendly, and permit well-behaved dogs on our sites and in our rental units, and they may be walked around the campground on-leash.
Q: Why did you change the name of the campground when you purchased it in 2014…and where does the name “Sunfox” come from?
A: The former owners, Randy & Jane P, had renamed the campground “Deer Haven” when they bought it in the 1990’s (it was Hill-n-Dale when it first opened in the early 70’s). Our new name signifies a new start, and more easily indicates a change in ownership. We had debated many possibilities, but liked the unique quality of Sunfox. Also, as we are at the exit that is halfway between Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods, that made sense as well. We hope you like the logo and artwork.
Q: What are the names of your four children who are now old enough to work and help?
A: Since we did not have permission to use photos of any other campers prior to purchasing the campground, we had to utilize shots of our 4 kids, including this oldie but goodie. The 3 boys are named in alphabetical order for ease in recall, with 2024 ages of Brock (17), Reed (15), Trey (13), and the little lady is Sage (11).
Q: Are there many other kids at Sunfox?
A: We are excited that so many families with children and grandchildren come to camp with us, either for a short stay or for the season, and are thrilled to welcome many new seasonal campers with kids of their own! We look forward to nice kids growing up into nice adults, as we have fond memories of this happening where we used to work and camp many years ago, with kids like Lenny, Bethany, Nicole, Keri, Bruce, Jeannine, Kenny and far too many others to mention here…although if you ask us on our Facebook page, we will gladly add you to this list–even guys like Sherman and Josh F!
