Best Cabin Camping near Tabernacle, NJ

Cabin rentals near Tabernacle provide comfortable accommodations with varying amenities across several campgrounds. Sun Outdoors Cape May and Cape Henlopen State Park Campground offer cabins with electricity, air conditioning, and heating systems. Most cabins include basic furnishings such as beds, tables, and seating areas. "The cabins are very spacious, have electric, air and heat. They also have a mini fridge and small microwave as well as tons of cube storage," noted one visitor about Cape Henlopen's accommodations. Kitchen facilities typically include refrigerators and microwaves, though some locations offer more extensive cooking options. Bathrooms may be shared facilities or private depending on the specific campground.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Parvin State Park Campground features more traditional log cabin structures with wood stoves for heating during cooler months. King Nummy Trail Campground and Shellbay Campgrounds provide cabin options that accommodate families with multiple sleeping arrangements. Reservations are essential, particularly during summer months when availability becomes limited. According to one review, "We stayed for a weekend and were very happy with our cabin - a pleasant surprise was how incredible the bathroom inside there was - we're talking spectacularly clean!" Most locations allow pets in RV and tent sites but restrict them in cabin accommodations, though policies vary by campground.

Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Basic cooking equipment is typically provided, including microwaves and sometimes stovetops, but guests should confirm specific amenities when booking. Campground stores at locations like Sun Retreats Seashore Campsites and Beachcomber Camping Resort stock essential items and firewood. A recent review noted that "The cabins are well equipped with other items such as: a trash can, broom and dustpan, standing lamp, two chairs, two small tables, a fire extinguisher, and two fly swatters." For more substantial grocery needs, nearby towns offer full-service markets, though many cabin campers bring their own provisions to minimize trips off-site.

    Sun Outdoors Ocean City

    Small but beautiful

    Site #271

    Full hookups: 20/30/50 amp water & sewer

    Very nice/small campground on the Sinepuxent bay. Gets very busy during the weekend, even though it's considered off season but people respect quiet hours. We could hear the live band perfectly from our site which we liked. Not too many planned activities but free shuttle to nearby Berlin & Ocean City.Short drive to all Ocean City has to offer. Clean bath houses and golf cart rental was an added bonus! Highly recommend our site to anyone with littles as you can literally relax at your site while your child plays at the playground! All sites included a fire ring with cooking grate and picnic table. Fairly easy to back in but they do have pull throughs available as well. Site was fairly spacious and campground is SUPER pet friendly!

    Cape Henlopen State Park Campground

    Sandy but fun

    The main thing to know is that the cabins and campsites are all on sandy ground.

    For this visit we camped in the cabins with three other families each in their own cabins. The cabins are very spacious, have electric, air and heat. They also have a mini fridge and small microwave as well as tons of cube storage. There are two twin bunks in one room and a queen bed and sofa in the main room. The porch is screened in with a fan and a picnic table. Trash cans, garbage bags, a broom and dust pan are provided.

    The cabins are all located near each other in a circle and are pretty close. They are great for group camping.

    The nature center here is great for kids and includes several fish tanks, a stingray touch tank and a horseshoe crab touch tank. There are lots of kids friendly hiking trails around and historic military sites as well as some neat playgrounds.

    Trap Pond State Park Campground

    Beautiful views and quiet campground

    For this visit, I stayed in one of their two yurts. The views were just gorgeous.

    The yurts have a bunk bed with a queen mattress on the bottom and a twin on top, as well as a futon that folds out into a queen. The bunks were very comfortable, but the futon was so hard we didn't even use it to sit on. The yurts also have electricity, heat and air, and are well equipped with other items such as: a trash can, broom and dustpan, standing lamp, two chairs, two small tables, a fire extinguisher, and two fly swatters.

    The views should be the huge selling point of this campground. When you walk out of the yurt, you walk onto your own raised wooden deck to beautiful views of Trap Pond. There are plenty of trees around for shade, but not so many that you can't enjoy the view. The trees also seclude you somewhat from your neighbors in the cabins, but you could interact if you wish.

    The closest restrooms to the cabin and yurt area are port-a-potties but they are currently prepping to build a bath house in this area.

    The cabins and yurts are walk up and wheelbarrows are provided. The walk is also pretty close. There is no running water, but there is a centrally located water pump.

    The campground offers a lot to do and quite a bit of it is free: free bike rentals, free horseshoes and ladder ball, two huge playground area and a nature center. They also have boat rentals and a boat tour available.

    We will definitely be visiting again!

    Cape Henlopen State Park Campground

    Diverse area with lots for kids

    We love this state park and campground. For this trip, we arrived with friends and staying in their cabins. The cabins were clean and spacious with AC, heat and electricity. In addition they had a mini fridge and microwave indoors. Each cabin included a screenshot in porch with picnic table, an outdoor picnic table and fire pot with grill.

    The park has wooded trails, trails in the beach, historic sites and an amazing nature center with a touch tank that included sting rays and horseshoe crabs.

    Highly recommend this site and can't wait to return with our tent.

    Killens Pond State Park Campground

    Great for kids!

    My son absolutely loved this place. There’s anything and everything you could think of available to keep everyone busy. A water park, volley ball field, playgrounds, amphitheater, nature center, nature trails, and boat rentals at the lake.

    It is a huge park, with secluded spots available for tent camping, cabins, and regular open spaces for camping rvs with electric hook up. Staff was friendly, campgrounds were well kept. It can get a little crowded but it’s worth it to stay. If you don’t like crowds, I suggest coming during the week days!

    Parvin State Park Campground

    Great location; Easy camping for newbies

    We stayed for a weekend and were very happy with our cabin - a pleasant surprise was how incredible the bathroom inside there was - we're talking spectacularly clean! There was a shower stall w/built-in shelves that seemed brand new (no mildew on the shower curtain, no stains, etc.). The small sink had a mirror above it that opens for a medicine cabinet. Plenty of toilet paper but you need to bring your own soap/shampoo/towels.

    The cabin featured a separate kitchenette area with regular size fridge, sink, electric stove with oven and some counter space/cupboard and rack for a hand towel. A fire extinguisher was within easy reach. The main area had two Adirontack chairs, table with benches, electrical outlet and wide barn doors (designed to open fully but ours were nailed shut so only a regular door width opened). There was a wood stove which, in August, we did not utilize (and I'd recommend bringing a small fan or two if you come in the summer, it was hot). There was a chalkboard (no chalk).

    While we did not think we'd be using the narrow screened in porch it did rain and we were glad to have it. Also inside were two little rooms with bunk beds. I felt claustrophobic in there, imagining spiders and all sorts of creepy things living in there and opted to sleep in the car. Which reminds me - warning - there are tiny deer ticks. Don't go out to the car in the dark when the dew is on the grass w/o covering your feet and ankles, you will get deer ticks. Not like it happened to me or anything, wink wink. That being said, the bunks were clean, if well-used. Bring your sheets/pillows/sleeping bag for them. 

    Outside, to the back of the cabin, was a small deck with picnic table, a grill, and a fire ring. Beyond that you will find a path to the lake with beautiful swans.

    We walked the path around Thundergust lake after dinner and here is another warning: bring super-woodsman-strong-do-not-mess-with-me bug spray. While we all can get mosquito bites, these babies were like Rambo mosquitos on sterioids - one bite would leave a welt swollen a quarter inch above your skin and an inch and a half long. One bite. Now imaging a dozen of them and you can see why my friend was miserable the next day. We also found the "spotted lantern fly" a pest that is non-native and wrecking havock, which we promptly crushed with a hiking boot.

    The swimming area of Parvin Lake was closed due to COVID, but we did a few hikes. There are maps available in the ranger's office - and some pretty cool tie-died t-shirts, too. (I got the turquoise). Anyway, the trails were pretty busy - lots of locals out getting a walk, run, or dog walk in. The hikes were easy, with level, sandy trails that were well-marked. There is a lot nearby the camping area, (like Misty Meadow Sheep Dairy where you can feed the animals and purchase some fantasic dairy products, yarn, and meats) or the Jersey Shore, or Amish markets.  So, while you can have the camping experience you will never feel "alone in the woods", which is why it's a great choice for new campers. Also  families who want the option of day trips close by. Some people had kayaks out on one of the lakes.

    While a bit worn from the weather, it was nice to read about the foliage/native plants as we walked the trails. We also caught the end of the blueberry season and I was able to collect enough to make a small batch of jam when I got home.

    My four-star rating comes from personal preference for more solitude when I camp. The other side of the same coin is the other negative impression I left with - there was a lot of trash/litter no matter where we were in this park. "Leave no trace" is not practiced here by the visitors, and while the park keeps the cabins COVID-spotless, the grounds are not maintained with the same stringency. In all fairness, the visitors should stop throwing bottles, wrappers, etc. on the ground. Signage and some volunteer days might help.

    Trap Pond State Park Campground

    Favorite DE campground

    Last family trip of the year and it didn’t disappoint. We stayed in site D25 again just as we did 2 yrs ago. It’s a pull through site as are all sites in loop D. This is pet friendly and has electric and water. Dump station is across from loop D. There are 5 loops with Loop E being tent and cabins/hurts only. That Loop also has island tent sites. We couldn’t walk into that area. Each loop or area has its own bathhouse which appear to all be individual family style bathrooms.

    The layout of the sites in loop D is not typical. All sites in this loop are pull through and parallel to the road, so the left drivers side of your camper faces the road and the right side faces your camp area. If you stay in an inside loop site you will be facing the camper on the other side of the loop. For instance D11 and D14 face each other. The distance between sites across the loop isn’t huge or blocked by any foliage but didn’t seem to be an issue for our friends who stayed in D24. If you stay on the outside of the loop you will either face the woods (higher numbered sites) or loop C through the trees ( lower numbered sites). Our site is pretty level as are most sites. This is Delaware which is flat land.

    The one issue with most every site are the trees. Most every site has a tree to watch out for. Other loops are all back in sites and many of those have trees to keep an eye on as well. This is a shaded campground. At the end of each loop is a pier on the pond which is large and beautiful. There are playgrounds in each loop and bike rentals at the camp store.

    The tent area is walk in but they provide wheelbarrows or carts to haul your stuff. These sites are very private and well spaced off the walk-in path and from each other. The cabins and yurts are also walk-in but again you have the use of carts. Some of the cabins are facing the pond and offer gorgeous views.

    There is a primitive group camp area complete with bathhouse, screened in pavilion, open air pavilion, numerous picnic tables, horseshoe and volleyball courts and sits at the point so the views of the pond are plentiful.

    There is a disc golf course within walking distance and the weekend we were there a competition was happening. There is a day use area with boat rentals and lots of trails for hikers or horses to use.

    The town of Laurel nearby has a few stores. I found This and That Country Store which was so cute. The owner was super nice. The beach areas of Delaware are not too far away if you want a beach day.

    This has become one of our favorite campgrounds in DE.

    Trap Pond State Park Campground

    Lovely, well run, affordable state park campground.

    Trap Pond is wonderful, we camp there a lot. It's great for kayaking and canoeing, freshwater fishing, birding, biking and hiking. There are miles of well maintained trails for bicycles, and free bike rentals from the campground bike shed. There are also loads of well marked water trails, one of which leads to a really nice cypress swamp with active beaver dam. Pontoon boat tours and kayak and canoe rentals are available for a reasonable fee. There is a nice play area for children in the campground that's just been upgraded, and a larger one across the pond in the public area. A lovely nature center is available for visiting during the day at no charge. It's fairly quiet and great for families and children.

    Campsites are wooded and well kept, with fire rings and picnic tables at each, and there are a range of scheduled activities for all ages from free to a small fee. Staff and volunteer hosts are friendly and courteous, and there is a camp store and laundry facilities. Bath houses, while a bit dated, are kept clean and neat. Pets are welcome. Cabins and Yurts are available, (And adorable).

    Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park - Elmer

    It’s not a Yogi Bear anymore

    We were sad to find out it’s no long a Yogi Bear Campground, only Adventure bound. Everything else is the same, just no friendly bears. We stay 3 weeks ago during covid and there were limited activities. Dj in the rally field was fun and the train rides were up and running.
    The campground has def changed in the last 10 yrs. Cabin rentals are everywhere and have replaced a lot of transient camper sites and it seems like many more seasonals than before. I booked another trip for Halloween.


Guide to Tabernacle

Cabin accommodations near Tabernacle, New Jersey provide convenient access to attractions along the Delaware Bay and Atlantic Ocean coastline. The area sits within New Jersey's Pine Barrens region, characterized by sandy soil, pine forests, and coastal marshlands at elevations between 50-100 feet above sea level. Winter temperatures can drop below freezing with summer highs reaching 90°F, making climate considerations important when booking cabin stays.

What to do

Beach access and water activities: Most cabin rentals are within 15-20 miles of multiple beach options. At Sun Outdoors Cape May, "You are close to rehobeth broadwalk or ocean city. The fishing is great also," mentions one visitor who appreciates the location benefits. The campground is approximately 5 minutes from Cape May beaches.

Historical exploration: Cape Henlopen State Park Campground features historic military installations. "As a former military installation, there are lots of military historical items and sites. Underground bunkers and batteries and such. There's a wonderful observation tower built on top of one of these that affords beautiful 360 degree views," notes a visitor highlighting the educational opportunities.

Nature trails: Delaware Seashore State Park Campground provides access to coastal nature trails. "There's a nice nature trail that starts at the back corner of the park and we even enjoyed wandering all around the park's windy, tree-lined roads," explains one camper, indicating the accessibility of outdoor activities from cabin sites.

What campers like

Swimming options: Beachcomber Camping Resort offers multiple water recreation choices. According to a visitor, "A nice lake with a giant inflatable slide, floating trampoline, kayak and paddle board rentals. A decent pool that tends to get a bit crowded, but does the trick." These features provide alternatives to beach swimming.

Bathhouse quality: Sun Retreats Seashore Campsites & RV Resort receives consistent praise for cleanliness. "Cleanest bathrooms," reports one reviewer, while others note regular maintenance and upkeep across facilities.

Off-season benefits: Visiting cabin sites during less busy periods offers advantages. "We visited off season (early April) and absolutely loved it. The location was great and the beaches are quiet. I hear it gets packed and I see that it's hard to book if you don't book early," mentions a Cape Henlopen visitor, suggesting spring and fall provide better availability.

What you should know

Site selection matters: For cabin stays, location within a campground affects experience. At Thousand Trails Sea Pines, "Spots can tight and lots of trees, sometimes making it difficult to get in and out of. Great pool and splash pad. Kids love the lake. Bathroom cleaned daily. Could use more showers. Nice and quiet at night." Site location impacts noise levels and access.

Transportation considerations: Many campgrounds with cabins near Tabernacle require internal transportation. "The campground is rather large, so it felt like a necessity to have a secondary way of getting around easily as a family. Plus it made checking out the entire campground manageable," notes a Sun Outdoors Cape May visitor who rented a golf cart.

Wi-Fi limitations: Internet access varies significantly by location. One camper at Ocean View Resort Campground noted, "Definitely would camp here again. Staff was great. Plenty of things for the kids to do," but other locations report connectivity challenges that affect remote work possibilities.

Tips for camping with families

Activity scheduling: Ocean View Resort Campground provides structured options for children. "This place had a lot to do with kids! Lake, pool, ice cream, arcade, mini golf, mining station, activities. Does get very crowded and definitely have to book a head," advises a visitor who appreciated the variety.

Beach distance: Factor in walking distances when selecting cabin locations with children. "It's about a mile walk to the beach. There are multiple parking lots if you want to drive a bit closer to a beach entrance. We have two young kids and it was a bit too long a walk for them from the camp site," reports a Cape Henlopen visitor, suggesting transportation planning for families.

Splash pad options: For younger children, specialized water areas provide safe alternatives. "They just completed a new mini golf course. Bathhouses are very clean and updated. They have a Great swimming Lake with a huge sandy beach," notes a visitor to Ocean View Resort regarding recent improvements.

Tips from RVers

Space considerations: Shellbay Campgrounds offers varying site configurations. "Great sites for camping with electric and water, seasonal sites with water, electric and sewer hookups and extremely well maintained grounds, paved roads, with family friendly rules to ensure enjoyment by all," mentions a visitor who appreciated the setup options.

Extended stay planning: Cabin sites offer different seasonal accommodation schedules. "Family run by the shore with all the amenities of home & more," notes a Shellbay visitor, adding that the "family owned campground makes you feel a home away from home from May - October 1," indicating operational dates important for planning longer visits.
