Butterfly Camping Resort

Enjoyed nature 👌

camping in NJ is extremely difficult and hard to find decent campgrounds. This place has a few pros as compared to others in the area. It has very pleasant staff, a great pool and decent facilities. Site was ok. Fairly level with adequate hook ups. Had cable, but was very fuzzy. Absolutely no WiFi signal at all. Sites are sand and dirt, so be prepared for that. Most campers are seasonal and typical rude NJ ppl. We stayed for a week to visit family over the 4th of July. I would rate this as exceptionally mediocre, as compared with camping in other states. As for Central NJ it was better than most. A lot of shade in the entire campground was a plus

4½ Stars Quick Weekend Getaway 

We stayed at Butterfly Camping Resort in Jackson, New Jersey, for a 2-night weekend in late-August. We’re so glad we did! 

Our site(#90) was a level pull-thru with 50-amp electric, water, sewer, and cable. It was roomy, shady, and easy to pull in and out. The hook-ups were all well-maintained and worked fine. We had plenty of room to fit our car too. The site included a picnic table, charcoal grill, and fire ring. 

The gated campground was clean and well-maintained. The swimming pool was large and the water crystal clear. The store was stocked with typical essentials like supplies, fire wood, and snacks. Most of the neighboring RVs were nice and in good shape. The park has bath facilities, a dump station on the way out, and lots of play areas. 

The front office staff were all friendly and we love that, especially when checking in at a new campground. When I called for a last-minute reservation, they seemed glad to have us. 

This park is close to Great Adventure and not far from the Jersey shore if that’s in your plans. 

There were two observations I’d categorize as ‘no park is perfect.’ The site was sandy. The whole place is sandy. This is messy, especially after a bit of rain(which we had), and makes it a constant challenge to keep the sand out of the RV. If the site had gravel, grass, or some other surface, this would be a 5-star review. They offer wifi which is nice to have, but it didn’t work very well. I realize this is a common complaint at many campgrounds, but we’ve come to want to stay connected(at least, a little). 

This is a really nice campground with inviting pool and facilities. We can’t wait to go back!
