Overall we had a good weekend. The campsites are kind of close. It's great for families, first time campers or a short get away. The road, 524, is very close to the campground. Its almost like camping in your back yard.. Some sites are tents only. Others are campers or cabins. The cabin, or shelter as it's called. Has a very nice wood burning stove. Which works great. Two double bunk beds with plastic foam mats and a privacy wall for one of the bunks.. Our door would not latch so anything could push it open, unless we locked it. The campsites are nice. They come with a fire ring, grill and decent picnic table. However spray yourself will bug repellent... The chiggers are extremely bad here, worst I've dealt with. Bring your own firewood. They charge $6 bucks for a small plastic bag of wood. For two nights it will run you about $100 bucks. They do have bathrooms and a public shower inside the bathroom. We decided not to use the showers. There is a no dog/pet policy so made arrangements for ours... Upon getting there everyone had their fir babies. We will not go again. However may this help you to be prepared if you decide to go.
I was camping by myself I sell 95% safe as there was a New Jersey state officer that would come by morning and night and the campgrounds personnel as well had a really nice site the woods are absolutely beautiful. Definitely going back
We have a 30ft 5th wheel and there are some pretty tight spots to get through. Had a limb break off and go though our roof. Other than that seems to be a very quiet place. Might take into consideration it's off season.
Beautiful area however very difficult without hookups. We thought it would be ok for 3 days but it was rough!
Pet-friendly sites in one large open loop-no privacy however very large sites and space in between. Heat and rain…thank goodness for generator however have to turn it off at 10pm. Was excited to see mowers but they stayed far away from campers-so our surrounding grass remained high.
Lots of kids working-in both office and driving around in trucks-no knowledge of where to fish. Resorted to a little pond with lots of sticks and no fish! Never did find the Manasquan River.
Must drive to village-go to bakery & general store. Take little tour of historical center-so interesting. They could make this so much nicer. Had to move to turkey swamp park for hookups and sanity in the heat and rain! Not for glampers!
Nice campground and pet friendly! Lots of space for tent and you are a comfortable distance from the next spot. Allaire State Park is very pretty with lots of trails to walk.
The highway is nearby so expect the sounds of trucks and motorcycles to crop up behind the sound of birds and wilderness. It's also pretty buggy.
The bathroom facility is great. Had a nice time.
