Several RV campgrounds near Winslow, New Jersey provide full hookup options for motorhomes and travel trailers, with most parks requiring reservations during peak summer months when shore traffic increases. Mays Landing Resort operates from April through November with electric, water, and sewer connections suitable for larger rigs. Thousand Trails Chestnut Lake in Port Republic features spacious sites with 50-amp service, accommodating big rigs on its gravel pads. Shady Pines Campground in Absecon remains open year-round with full hookups including 50-amp electric service, though site dimensions can be tight for larger motorhomes. Echo Farms RV Campground in Ocean View offers seasonal camping from May to October with full hookup sites that include 50-amp service. "Our site was inadequately sized to accommodate the full length. The much bigger problem was that it sloped so much it was impossible to level. I didn't have enough blocks to prop up the leveling jacks."
Access roads to campgrounds vary in quality, with some visitors reporting tight turns challenging for larger motorhomes. Cell service is generally reliable across the area, with Verizon typically providing the strongest signal. Dump stations are available at most parks, though a review noted that "the dump station is just a little hole on the side of the road and very unlevel and not easy to fully dump our tanks." Water pressure can fluctuate during peak usage times, especially in older facilities. Pet-friendly policies are common, though some parks restrict certain breeds or charge additional fees. Propane refill services are available at select locations, with many campgrounds offering on-site firewood sales. Proximity to Atlantic City and shore points makes these parks popular bases for exploring the region's attractions.

"We stayed in the small tent loop at this private, primarily RV resort. First, the good stuff: The tent loop was empty for our 5 night stay with the exception of night 1. We were at site F17."

"Tent site was fantastic, level, trees are well trimmed, but still with good coverage, sites are a nice size. Close enough to the bathroom and water options. Campground well appointed."

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.

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!

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.

Ocean View Resort Campground
One of the best campgrounds I have ever stayed in
This is one of the largest, if not the largest, campgrounds in Southern New Jersey. While on the pricier side, everything is top-notch. The roads are all paved, and not gravel (I hate trying to sleep and listening to the sound of stones grating together). The sites are more spacious than most campgrounds, so it doesn't seem so crowded. The bathrooms are all modern and spotless. There are numerous bathrooms which means most sites have one nearby. They do charge a quarter for showers to encourage water conservation and donate the money to conservation causes. The pool is large, as is the lake. Both are well-maintained. The camp store is enormous and is really nice and well-stocked with everything one might need from food to pool and beach stuff to camping supplies and equipment. There is a nice cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. The camp store has a lending library of books and DVDs. There are numerous activities that appear to be well-run, The grounds are shaded with many trees for a great wooded campground feel. The campground is so large that it has an internal shuttle with stations scattered about to help people go between the various important sites such as at the pool, the lake and the store. I found other campers, particularly the seasonals, to be more friendly than other campgrounds at the shore. This requires constant tree care including removing dead trees and branches which they do regularly. The staff is friendly and well-trained. I was in a tent, and when a rare October nor'easter came through, I was offered the opportunity to use a cabin free-of-charge. Fortunately my tent and equipment made it through days of rain and high winds just fine . On my first stay in May, I had to run my dog back to Baltimore towards the end of my trip where he was sadly diagnosed with incurable metastatic cancer. When I returned, I was late and unable to check out by 11, but they allowed me to take as much time as needed to clear the site, as nobody was staying there the next day, which was deeply appreciated - I was an emotional wreck. Oh, and I found the complimentary Wi-Fi to be a great service, and sufficiently fast to allow me to stream ultra-high-definition movies at my site - Most campgrounds charge extra for less-than-good service - a lot more. I find that a big bonus. Overall, I LOVE this campground and highly recommend it.

GuideAtsion 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.

The Depot Travel Park
Enjoyed my stay
I’ve stayed here multiple times over the past 15 years and I have enjoyed each trip.
Depot Travel Park is a well-maintained family-owned campground. It is also reasonably priced, especially given the location that is within a bicycle ride to the beach, the ocean, and lots of shops and restaurants in Cape May. It is the only campground on the Cape May side of the canal.
Please note that this is not a resort campground and it doesn’t have a pool. There is so much to do in Cape May that is doesn’t need to be a resort.
Since it’s not a resort campground, there are not many golf carts, so most people use their bicycles or cars to get around. That also makes the campground pretty quiet, even during the peak of summer.
The campground sells firewood and propane, but there is no camp store. Again, it doesn’t really need one, since there is a farmers market at the end of the driveway, and a CVS and an ACME supermarket within bicycle riding distance.
If your site doesn’t have a sewer hookup, the dump station is a little awkward to access, but they have a daily honey wagon for a reasonable fee, which is great. If you notify the office the day before you need it and they are usually there in the morning.
They close for the season n October, but they reopen briefly during the Cape May Christmas Parade weekend in December. That’s one thing that I’d like to do soon.
I really like this campground and I am always recommending it to friends.

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…
Guide to Winslow
Campgrounds near Winslow, New Jersey offer year-round camping options in the Pine Barrens region, where sandy soil and pine forests create a distinct ecosystem. Summer temperatures typically reach 85-90°F while winter nights can drop below freezing, with the camping season primarily running April through November for many locations. Sites vary from heavily wooded to open layouts, with most campgrounds situated within 30 miles of Atlantic City beaches.
What to do
Fishing opportunities: Thousand Trails Chestnut Lake features a stocked lake where campers report good catches. "Good fishing, good people, nice shaded and sunny spots, beautiful pool," notes one reviewer who recommends avoiding "the front middle spots, they flood when it rains."
Beach access: Cape May beaches are accessible from rv sites near Winslow, New Jersey. A camper at Sun Retreats Avalon shared, "We were close to the Cape May beaches. Cold Spring Brewery wasn't too far and was fun."
Walking trails: Several campgrounds offer nature paths suitable for daily exercise. At Mays Landing Resort, a camper mentioned, "There are a bunch of walking paths that lead from the camp so you have ample places to walk."
Local breweries: Explore nearby craft breweries when staying at Shady Pines Campground. According to a visitor, "There's a cute brewery right around the corner and a burger place called Tony Beef. We liked them both!"
What campers like
Swimming options: Sun Retreats Seashore Campsites & RV Resort offers both pool and lake swimming. "Pros love the pool, lake, waterslides, and proximity to cape may," reports one camper, though noting some maintenance issues with "broken equipment, kids racing golf carts all hours of the nights."
Tent camping areas: Some campgrounds provide dedicated tent sections. At Mays Landing Resort, "We stayed in the small tent loop at this private, primarily RV resort. First, the good stuff: The tent loop was empty for our 5 night stay with the exception of night 1."
Clean facilities: Many campers highlight bathroom cleanliness as a priority. A visitor to Shady Pines noted, "We have a small TT so my family did utilize the bathrooms for shower convenience after the beach and they were SUPER clean."
Community activities: Seasonal events create social opportunities. One camper at Mays Landing Resort described, "The miniature golf course could have been maintained better, but it was so inexpensive I couldn't consider it an issue. Our tent site was right next to the pond. It was a Saturday and they were rocking."
What you should know
Site leveling challenges: Many campgrounds have uneven terrain requiring preparation. At Mays Landing Resort, "Site are very unleveled so the staff switched us to a pull thru space that was a tad bit more level but still very unleveled. The campground gave more of a Mobil home park feel and the park itself was a bit dated."
Seasonal population: Some campgrounds primarily serve long-term residents. According to a Shady Pines visitor, "There are several contract workers staying there and we found them to be really helpful and knowledgeable about the surrounding area and RV care. Their rigs were impeccable!"
Road conditions: Internal campground roads present navigation challenges. One camper at Mays Landing Resort stated, "The exit is very tight to get out of and all lanes are one way so be careful if you have a big rig."
Insect considerations: The proximity to water means mosquitoes are common. A visitor to Thousand Trails Chestnut Lake warned about "bugs" as one of the primary drawbacks, particularly in wooded areas near water.
Tips for camping with families
Activity planning: King Nummy Trail Campground provides convenient access to popular attractions. "Great location close to Cape May and Wildwood," notes one visitor, making it suitable for day trips with children.
Playground access: Facilities for younger children vary by location. At Mays Landing Resort, "It does have a nice playground for the little kids," though the same reviewer noted some concerns about staff attitudes.
Water safety: Campgrounds with water features require supervision. At Mays Landing Resort, "Parents of small children and toddlers: the tent loop is surrounded by water on 3 sides. There is no safety fence. The water is mostly standing water so expect mosquitoes."
Noise considerations: Weekend activities can impact quiet time. A camper at Sun Retreats Seashore Campsites noted, "The golf carts were the absolute worst, people don't obey the speed limit on these things (and there are a lot of them whizzing around...) Many were driven by underage kids (against rules, but clearly not enforced)."
Tips from RVers
Site sizing: Echo Farms RV Campground and other locations have limited space. As one camper reported, "It was not what I expected the site was very small no grass no privacy but the good thing about it was with centrally located around 4 beaches."
Reservation timing: Book well in advance for summer months. At Sun Retreats Seashore Campsites, campers noted the need for early reservations, especially for holiday weekends when the campground fills to capacity.
Utility reliability: Water and electric hookups generally function well. At Shady Pines, a camper noted, "The water, 50-amp electric, and sewer hookups worked fine," despite other site limitations.
Weather preparedness: Drainage issues affect some sites during rain. At Thousand Trails Chestnut Lake, visitors recommend "stay away from the front middle spots, they flood when it rains," showing the importance of site selection during wet weather.
