    Several RV parks near Camden offer full hookup sites with varying amenities and accessibility. Mays Landing Resort in Mays Landing provides 50-amp electric, water, and sewer hookups from April through November, while Shady Pines Campground in Absecon operates year-round with big-rig friendly sites. "We stayed at Site #71 which was too short for our 37' motorhome. I made it fit, but measured just 3-inches of air between the back of my RV and the back of our neighbor's RV," noted one visitor about Shady Pines. Village Scene Park in Hatfield, Pennsylvania features level gravel sites with concrete pads at some locations, though reviews indicate the pull-through sites at many parks are tightly spaced, making maneuvering difficult for larger motorhomes and fifth wheels.

    Most RV parks in the region require reservations, particularly during summer months and fall weekends when occupancy rates peak. Cell service varies significantly between locations, with Verizon typically providing the most reliable coverage. Dump stations are available at most parks, though some like Pomona RV Park charge additional fees for black tank disposal. Many campgrounds have implemented gated security systems, particularly those closer to Atlantic City and shore points. Pet policies differ between parks - Military Park Fort Dix Range 14 Camp and several others welcome pets but may have breed or size restrictions. Propane refill services are available at select locations including Pomona RV Park, though prices tend to be higher than at off-site suppliers.

      Quiet, Clean and Friendly

      We stayed at the group site campground with our horse.  We found the sites to be large, and  clean.  The staff is very friendly and helpful, and they have fall activities for the family, at the lake and nature hikes.  The porta potty's are very clean, have hand sanitizer and plenty of paper.   Will be returning again in a few weeks.  Plenty of trails to ride on.  A true gem in our own backyard.

      Lowe's - W Windsor

      Upscale Parking Paradise at This Home Fixer-Upper

      Located just off US Route 1 in the upscale Princeton area, this spacious Lowe's serves up a surprisingly pleasant patch of pavement for weary road warriors looking to catch some shut-eye. Set back roughly 80 yards from the highway, this big blue home improvement retailer offers a generously sized parking lot with relatively manageable traffic, good maneuverability and a quieter atmosphere than you might expect from such a busy suburban retail corridor. The western and southern edges of the lot are particularly appealing for an overnight stay, and with Trader Joe's, Starbucks and several other retailers nearby, convenience certainly isn't in short supply. Better yet, the store management was friendly and accommodating when we called ahead to arrange our overnight visit. 

      HIGHLIGHTS: (1) Spacious, paved parking lot with plenty of room to maneuver larger rigs; (2) Convenient access to US Route 1 and nearby I-95; (3) Western and southern parking areas offer quieter spots away from the busiest customer traffic; (4) Excellent nearby conveniences, including Trader Joe's, Starbucks and several dining options; and (5) Friendly store management that welcomed our overnight stay, plus surprisingly good opportunities for outdoor recreation nearby. 

      LOWLIGHTS: (1) Some daytime retail traffic and occasional road noise, although nothing terribly disruptive; (2) No RV hookups, dump station or dedicated overnight camping facilities; (3) Parking areas closest to the store can become crowded during business hours; (4) Limited greenery and little of the scenery you'd expect from a traditional campground; and (5) While the overnight experience was excellent, this is still a commercial parking lot rather than a destination for an extended stay. 

      Happy Overnighting!

      Colonial Meadows Family Campground

      Great park

      Many long term seasonal sites. Good community. Large shower house good and clean . Pool. Game room. Off leash dog park. Wooded/shady sites or no shade sunny sites. Lots of area to walk or play. Large field, basketball couture, frisky golf, play area and laundry room. We were here all summer (June-october). Lots to do in the area. Good food nearby. Ocean city 10 minutes away.

      Atsion Family Camp — Wharton State Forest

      Pine Barrens New Jersey

      This campground is part of the Wharton State Forest and has several campgrounds in the area. Great wooded sites right on a lake. Pretty good separation between sites with good tree separation between sites. Some road noise not overly affecting site.

      Tohickon Family Campground

      Simple, peaceful FHU

      We stayed just a couple nights here on our way north. The camp host was helpful before our stay and during check-in. Our site was pretty isolated from the others, so it was very quiet (no complaints here). There is a decent mix of sunny sites by the river and shady sites under the trees. The weather was perfect mid September. There wasn't anything spectacular for me, but it was a good experience and it was a nice taste of fall PA scenery. Beware that the roads are tight for a big rig. Side note, it did seem like most campers lived there.

      Don’t go unless you want harassment

      My check in was for 8-6-2026, and bc I’m a new driver and wanted to beat traffic I got there early (7am) so I sit there waiting till check in time. When suddenly the park police show up. He’s accusing me of camping over night there. I told him simply I wasn’t and where I was night prior (would never sleep somewhere without permission). So we go to the store to kill time before we check in. Come back for Check in and the whole staff in just the office alone were so arrogant and cold to my mom and I, leaving rude comments to us and not only where they like that but the staff outside the office was acting like that alongside the rangers and park police. They would watch us the whole visit in the distance parking there cars a little ways watching everything we did,even driving by slowly a bunch of times in just an hour alone. My mom and I couldn’t do anything with out them showing up 2 mins later. Example we were walking our dog enjoying our time(trying to) and all of a sudden one of the office ladies pulls up right in front of us speeding, parks their car, gets out and walks a distance from us standing there and taking pictures of us…. For walking our dog who’s on a leash and didn’t even do anything. The whole trip we felt uncomfortable and unwanted and to find out they police when we were going on walks where coming up to campers near us bribing them with free firewood to get any information on use (told to us by other camper). I paid a lot of money to be harassed and followed the whole time. We never did anything we abide by every rule and keep to ourselves everywhere we go. They even made my mother cry…

      Beautiful campground, loud campers

      Beautiful campground but made the mistake of going on a holiday weekend, the campgrounds next to us were screaming and blasting music all day and throughout the night so we ended up leaving early. A beautiful campground when there aren’t noisy capers ruining it.

    Guide to Camden

    Camden-area camping features a diverse range of RV parks and campgrounds within an hour's drive of the city. Sites are typically between 5 and 35 miles from downtown Camden, situated in both urban areas and more natural settings across Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Most campgrounds open April through October, with limited options for winter camping.

    What to Do

    Fishing and water activities: Spring Gulch Resort Campground offers a stocked fishing pond though results vary. "Fishing pond is a joke and near by Gun Range can be annoying and tough on pets. But, over all, this place is pretty nice," notes Steve R.

    Mini golf options: Several campgrounds offer mini golf courses as a family activity option. At Lake-In-Wood Campground, one camper mentioned, "There is a miniature gold, nice indoor and outdoor pool and a kiddie pool. Goats to pet and watch."

    Special seasonal events: Halloween is popular at many campgrounds. At Mays Landing Resort, Herbert said, "Halloween decorations were the best. The playground was great my daughter really enjoyed the scavenger hunt."

    What Campers Like

    Unique accommodation options: Beyond standard RV sites, some campgrounds offer specialty lodging. Lake-In-Wood Campground provides themed cabins. Paulina B. shared, "This resort is a lot bigger than you would anticipate from the road/entryway. Tons of amenities for families including mini golf, an arcade, pools, fishing ponds, etc."

    Evening entertainment: Weekend activities enhance the camping experience at many parks. At Spring Gulch Resort Campground, Dawn T. noted, "They had a live band one evening. Activities though the day were fun. Clean bath houses and staff was friendly."

    Clean facilities: Thousand Trails Chestnut Lake receives positive feedback for cleanliness. Thomas Q. commented, "Very helpful staff and wonderful atmosphere. The showers are basic but far from the worst I've experienced, clean and stocked."

    What You Should Know

    Site challenges: Many RV sites throughout the area have leveling issues. At Shady Pines Campground, Amanda M. observed, "I can definitely see where the previous reviewer said they had trouble with leveling from to back. We have a very small TT and pulled back as far as we could otherwise we would have been on a slope as well."

    Seasonal crowds: Most Camden-area campgrounds become quite busy during peak periods. At Lake Kandle, Mya M. advised, "Make sure to get an end campsite or your table will be by the sanitary dump. Large sights kids had fun."

    Long-term residents: Some campgrounds cater primarily to seasonal or permanent residents. Amanda M. noted about Shady Pines Campground, "There are several contract workers staying there and we found them to be really helpful and knowledgeable about the surrounding area and RV care."

    Tips for Camping with Families

    Swimming options: Multiple swimming areas provide different experiences for families. About Lake Kandle, a reviewer mentioned, "Lake with swing and fishing and two pools. No pets no alcohol no store but they have a snack stand."

    Playground facilities: Parks with dedicated play areas rate highly with families. At Mays Landing Resort, Herbert shared, "The playground was great my daughter really enjoyed the scavenger hunt. The miniature golf course could have been maintained better, but it was so inexpensive I couldn't consider it an issue."

    Family activities: Village Scene Park offers a less resort-like experience but with convenient location. Stuart K. noted, "VSP's location is great for those wanting to access some of the bigger, better things in Philly proper, without having to actually stay in the city."

    Tips from RVers

    Off-season availability: RV camping options vary seasonally. Military Park Fort Dix Range 14 Camp remains open year-round. Rara B. reported, "We stayed here in November-December to do some exploring around Jersey. Not a lot going on at the fam camp. Clean and gravel."

    Site dimensions: Many campers report tight sites for larger RVs. About Shady Pines, a camper mentioned, "Our site (#71) was too short for our 37' motorhome. I made it fit, but measured just 3-inches of air between the back of my RV and the back of our neighbor's RV."

    Utilities and hookups: Most campgrounds offer full hookups, though specifics vary. At Belhaven Lake RV Resort, Pattie R. shared, "Great summers here for almost 60 years! Fun for all. This is a seasonal campground and everyone is so nice!!"
