"Located in the Skylands of New Jersey, Mahlon Dickerson Campgound is a perfect place to spend a few nights or a couple of weeks. The campsites are paved and mostly level. They are wooded and large."
"It's beautiful and quiet, and close to beautiful hiking trails, lakes, and other outdoor recreation opportunities."
"Panther lake was a pretty good campground with lots of spots to camp at. Our campsite had a picnic bench and a fire ring. They offer both RV and primitive camping."
"The Lake is the gem of the campground with a really nice beach, good for fishing and kayaking. The negatives were the bathrooms. They are very primitive and quite dirty."
" Our 4rth state in our 5 state trip is New Jersey! We wanted to see Delaware Water Gap NRA & I found a campground by Newton called The Great Divide. This is a private campground."
"All the positive reviews about this place are accurate! Beautiful, clean, well maintained, lots to do, great value for your $$"
"The crystal-clear water is home to huge lake trout and the forests are bursting with wildlife. The sunsets across the lake are to die for."
"Once you get to the campground trail it’s pretty easy going on asphalt surface."
"The bathroom/shower was only a few steps away which was convenient and clean."
"All the sites are set up nearby the office where people are all day should you ever need anything. The workers are super friendly and regularly make rounds of the grounds."
"There are dumpsters but no recycling (not sure if New Jersey segregates recycling after pickup).
ATT had some reception but we forgot to check the Verizon phone. "
"Was a bit hard to locate the office to check in but finally found it. The camp site was spacious. The bathrooms were struggling with the plumbing but were fairly clean."
"We booked a campsite at the far end of the loop by the lake, which looked to be the right spot for some privacy, but a longer walk to the bathroom and water spigot."
"The campsites are slightly separated from the lake (maybe 8 min walk to lake) but that also means you aren’t bothered by day guests. The lake is beautiful! Great for swimming and fishing."
$7 - $55 / night
"It was a solid choice: private but close to the toilet and water. Some sites located around the opposite side of the ring back up to a babbling brook. The rushing water will soothe you to sleep."
"We stayed at the campsite at Lake Ocquittunk Area. Campsite was very spacious and had a platform where we were able to fit two tents. There was plenty of space on the site for more tents."
"Full bathrooms are located behind campsite #15 (clean flushing bathrooms, with motion-sensed lighting, showers, dishwashing sink), but easily accessible from campsites nearby."
"Bathrooms with flush toilets are conveniently located centrally every so often."
"We had our 3 Labs with us and they had plenty of walking space. We were within walking distance of Chili's. Close to shopping if you needed something. Reasonably quiet."
ScoutIt’s a gravel parking lot. Plenty of shade. No one bothered me.
GuideGreat open spot with some shade, depending on when you go we have noticed there tends to be a lot of loud disrespectful people who are there to party not camp. It’s nice to be on the Delaware and not many campgrounds have water access or a boat ramp so that’s a plus. Showers, sinks, and toilets are available.
ScoutIf we could rate this a 0 we would. We were expecting a weekend of kayaking and relaxation when in fact we got an overcrowded, noisy and dirty weekend that was overpriced. I will give the river a 10, it was beautiful, welcoming and refreshing in the warm sun. We arrived at about 8:00 in the evening with several camps blaring different genre of music, not a problem, considering we still like it as loud as possible sometimes, but it didn't end at quiet time, it continue until well over midnight. The campsites are so close together it was like being packed into a sardine can. The campsite across the pathway didn't have their dog on a lead and we woke up with a pile of dog excrement next to our trailer, that was a howdy-do morning for ya. We were super excited to take our kayaks out on the river, paddle up stream and float down with our pup, but we were told that we couldn't launch from this location. (What kind of crap is that) This location was a receiving location only and "absolutely no launching" was allowed. If you are looking for a party spot to come with your friends, this is definitely the place for you! If your looking for a chill place to camp next to the river where you can tube, kayak and enjoy your peaceful weekend, this is NOT the place. The amount of money we spent for 2 nights was outrageous for such a sucky weekend, will not be going back!
ScoutThis was a great campsite nestled in the foothills of Northern NJ on the NY border. Small, clean with great views and great location for hiking , cruising etc. Bring your tent or use the existing glamping tents. Headed back for a fall weekend in the "dome" which has incredible views. Try it you won't be sorry.
GuideTrailhead parking was chill for a night. No trouble. Tons of hiking. Went down Saw Creek trail to a marsh.
ScoutNice spot but don’t bring your 34 foot camper trailer. Could only back in and it was a tight curved driveway with ruts. I clipped a tree with the trailer. Also it didn’t show that there was another camp site that close. It’s was within eye sight.
ScoutProbably the worst shower ever. The lights are timed. The water is a button. The space is small as hell.
LegendThis place is unique by location alone! We stopped for two nights on our way to CT. They have an onsite buffet with live entertainment if your timing is right. They are also located right on a river that you can easily access by foot. They have a decent laundry facility and full hook ups. No frills at the site but perfect for the commuting RVers just looking for somewhere safe to sleep for the night.
RangerOtter Lake Campground was one of the best campgrounds we went to.... pros and cons
Pros-

-Pools indoor and outdoor
-Great playgrounds
-Great biking even a trail around the like
-lots of activities planned
-awesome store stocked well
-the area had alot of hiking close
-food truck at certain times in the lot
CONS
-security was so annoying about riding bikes after a certain time ... we were actually told we couldn't play bingo because we wouldn't be done before it started to get dark so bring our bikes back then try to come back... huh
-secuirty would stalk the playground and tell the kids to leave it was getting dark... never went to a campground where you couldn't ride a bike at night.
Spots : wooded areas which we love, spacious, bathhouse all around that were clean, spots around Lake.
We liked this campground even if the security was a little crazy. We would go back if we did revisit campgrounds.
