Set back in the wooded Pine Barrens of Ocean County, Baker's Acres Campground has been family-run for more than 50 years and draws a mix of seasonal regulars and weekend visitors looking to use it as a base for the Jersey Shore. The campground sits in Parkertown, with Long Beach Island roughly 35 minutes away by car and Tuckerton Seaport about 10 minutes out. Sites are level, sandy-soiled, and generally well-shaded by trees and shrubs that provide a degree of separation between neighbors. Sea Pirate Campground is nearby for campers comparing options in the area.
The wooded layout gives the property a settled, lived-in feel. Many sites are occupied by seasonal campers, which contributes to a neighborhood-like atmosphere. Reviewers consistently note the trees and natural borders between sites, and Matt S. describes it as having "plenty of trees and shrubs for semi-privacy, shade, and a rustic feel." Full hookup sites include 50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections. Sandy soil is part of the deal here, and campers arriving in wet weather should expect some mess underfoot.
Activities on-site include a salt pool, playground, dog park, nature trail, bocce ball, horseshoes, volleyball, and a game room. The camp store carries supplies and rents beach tags for access to LBI. Scheduled activities run throughout the season, including movie nights and scavenger hunts. The bathhouses are cleaned twice daily and feature private shower and toilet rooms. WiFi is available for a fee, and Verizon cell coverage is reported as weak to adequate depending on location within the campground.
Larger rigs should plan carefully. The access roads are narrow and uneven, and the campground has a 35-foot length limit. "The roads are narrow getting to the ground and very tight inside especially for larger rigs," notes Dave S.. Backing into some sites can be a challenge depending on the angle of approach. The campground runs May through October and accepts reservations. Pets are allowed, and a dog park is on-site. Walmart, grocery stores, and restaurants are all within five miles. Campers wanting a different setup can look at campgrounds near Eagleswood for additional configurations in the region.
