    Sun Outdoors Cape May

    Destination: History and Beaches

    Campground overview: We visited here in the third week in April. This is a private campground located about 6 miles from Cape May Point and about 4 miles from the beaches. If you are looking at this area to camp- then you know this is an area of lots of history from the WWII lookout tower and lighthouse to the hawk watch observatory.and everything in between. You will not be bored here!

    Lots of construction work was going on while we were here in preparation for their busy season which begins Memorial Day Weekend for the region. We were not bothered by this.

    There is a small lake (with swimming area) that is stocked for fishing and the overall feel of this park is tranquil. There is a rec center, activity center, tennis courts, 3 pickle ball courts, playgrounds and pool to name a few things. This is off season so the campground did not have the usual KOA bustle and feel of a summer camp for adults.

    Campsite : This is a well kept up park with plenty of wooded and shady sites that are a firm gravel and very level. Easy in and out of the park with our 40 feet of Rig. We had a premium pull thru site site with picnic table, grill, porch swing and patio table set along with a large concrete patio. (*note-placement of the sewer necessitated an extension to reach when we aligned our rig with the concrete patio.)

    Activities close to park: In addition to the campground activities which are plentiful, the Cape May Bike trail is directly across the street. If you go right, you will be in a very active shopping center area in about 2.4 miles and if you go left you are on your way to the beaches in 4 miles.

    The Cape May Ferry is only 4.4 miles away and could be a fun day trip because it will take you to Rebooth and you can explore Cape Henolpen State Park for the day . (We actually took our RV on the Ferry to our next campground) and that successful adventure will be documented at another time.

    My take away for this campground is that it is a great location to explore the area and you even have the option of additional day trips in a way that you may not always get to experience....Ferry rides are fun!

    Here is a great website that informs you of all the activities the area has to offer from Polar Plunges to wine and brewery trails.

    Love this place

    What a great visit are having. Beautiful location with lots of space for everyone. Great beach and tiki bar. Pools for the family and very pet friendly. We stayed in the ‘big rig’ site within Club Castaway right on the water as we have a 40ft rig. Amenities are clean, staff friendly and helpful. Our dog, Daisy, loved the beach and the dog park and socialization w her pooch friends. Will be back.

    So far so good

    Arrived at 1pm on Wednesday. Check in was smooth. They allowed me to drive around first and pick out a campsite before checking in. They charge $5 extra for a dog. So far it is very quiet and that's what I was looking for. It's just a short drive to the ocean is:Cape May, Ocean City New Jersey.

    Above my expectations!

    A beautiful wooded campground close to the beaches of Cape May, New Jersey. Very family oriented and really a great place for adults too. We stayed in a teepee and it is one of the coolest places I have camped. These days I like glamping and this was the best experience yet!

    Bring bug spray!

    Great park, awesome amenities. Would definitely go back. Price is not cheap but the amenities make it worth it. Can’t wait until the zip lining courses are back open. Stupid COVID!

    Bugs were crazy bad in the dog park and the moisture rich tent areas. Bring bug spray or a flame thrower.

    Ocean View Resort Campground

    Recommended

    This place was recommended to us by a friend when we first started camping. We've been back many times since then. It's very close to everything, but you don't even need to leave the campground! There are a ton of activities! Certain areas in the campground are very "buggy" and it can get a little pricey, but it's the best place we've been to in New Jersey so far.

    Sun Outdoors Rehoboth Bay

    ★★★★★ July 4th Weekend

    We spent an extended weekend at Sun Outdoors at Rehoboth Bay(formerly called The Resort at Massey’s Landing). And we had a blast! 

    Located on Rehoboth Bay, this resort was a great place to spend a long holiday weekend. Our paved site was just a few steps to a private beach which was really nice and clean. The campground included a heated pool with swim-up bar, kids activity pool, camp store, ice cream shop, and restaurant with bar. There’s no reason to ever leave the property! 

    We found the amenities and facilities were clean and maintained. Our site(# 214) was level and the full hookups all worked fine. This is a dog-friendly resort in all areas except the swimming pools. Daily trash pickup from the site is a great convenience. Even though the place was full for the holiday weekend, the staff handled everything well and always had a friendly greeting (including dog treats for our 4-legged traveller). 

    We had the opportunity to take the Cape May Lewes Ferry from and back to New Jersey. Driving a motor home onto a boat is an experience by itself. And we were fortunate to have great weather for our entire trip. 

    This is a great place and we can’t wait to come back! 

    THINGS I LIKED: 

    • Private beach 

    • Clean and well maintained property 

    THINGS I’D CHANGE: 

    • Slow WiFi and sketchy cable service 
    • The sites are really tightly packed without any trees for shade or privacy

    Beachcomber Camping Resort

    Beautiful wooded sites, lots to do and unique camping experiences.

    Fun for the whole family. Lots to do and the beautiful beaches of Cape May, New Jersey are a short 10 minute drive. The different types of camping/glamping experiences exceeded my expectations. We enjoyed the Deer Crossing Teepee which had far more luxuries than any other glamping I have done. Highly recommend this campground resort.
