Pine Cone Resort

Sites at Pine Cone Resort pack closely together across both forested and open terrain in Freehold, with limited privacy between spots but adequate space for large tents or RVs up to 34 feet. The campground provides full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections, though several campers report issues with site leveling and road conditions that deteriorate during wet weather.

Cell phone reception proves spotty throughout the property, making the required phone check-in process challenging for arriving guests. The bathhouse maintains clean showers with hot water, though toilet stall doors lack locks. Common areas include a playground, swimming pool, basketball hoop, and horseshoe pits spread across open fields, while the absence of hiking trails or fishing opportunities limits on-site recreation options.

"Garbage in fire pit that they would not clean and dog poop on our site," reports deb K., highlighting maintenance concerns that some visitors encounter. Site conditions vary significantly, with reports ranging from adequate accommodations to problematic drainage and overhanging tree branches that pose risks to equipment.

DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER STAYING HERE

If I could review this with a negative star, I would... We spoke to personnel when we made reservations, and were promised a pull through, full hook up that would fit my truck and 34' trailer. Far from that, we could not open our awnings, and site was far from level. Let alone we can not pull through fully. Worst site we have ever been on. Dirty, holes in road, mud everywhere, tree limbs falling on my new truck and new trailer. Garbage in fire pit that they would not clean and dog poop on our site. To make it worse I am disabled with lung disease, and I had truck squeezed on our site, hanging over on empty site next door. Owner called threatening to have me arrested, charge me for 2nd site and demanded we leave campground immediately. What a joke! I would never ever stay here again. BTW, WiFi and cable don't work at all. $62.50 a night is ridiculous.

Not bad

No one in the office so you have to check in over the phone which isn't easy with bad reception in the area.

Camp sites are close together with no privacy but decent sized. You get a table, fire ring with out a grill, water, electric, and enough room for a large cabin tent or a few small tents.

Showers are clean and have hot water. No locks on the toilet stall doors which is really weird. Playground, pool, big open fields, horseshoes, basketball hoop. No hiking trails. No pond or lake for fishing.

$50 per night

Easy drive

Not my favorite but the staff is friendly. It kind of reminds me of a hostile more than a campground

Needs work

Place was ok for a quick trip to start the camping season. Many full time run down RV's. Had a issue with the electric hookup, thank God my husband and friends we travel with are electricians and carry their tools.

The sites were good sized, but the place is a little run down and could defiantly use some work.
