great location. great scenery. full hook ups

animal petting and good fishing.  



great family campground

This north western NJ campground has fantastic scenic views and plenty of planned activities to keep you occupied.

Great campground lots for kids to do

Large levelled spaces but a little muddy. Good for a quiet, relaxing weekend; not very close to attractions otherwise. My daughter loved the horses and goats.

It is important to note that there is only RV and cabin rentals offered at Pleasant Acre. The grounds are up on top of a mountain and is quite beautiful and quiet. This is a great place to get away and bring your family and dogs. They offer several planned activities for kids and they have nice facilities like a great swimming pool and ping pong. Important to not miss: the amazingly beautiful miniature horse that wonders around its huge pin located in the middle of the campground.

RV and Cabin Rental Only...and a miniature horse!

Loved camping here last year. Close to home for my family to be able to do multiple trips. We especially enjoyed being able to leave our trailer on the site for the week and return the following weekend and having everything set up and ready to go. You can no longer do that. We also enjoyed the breakfast(pancakes or French toast)on Saturday mornings. It was a great way to start the day and meet other campers. They no longer do that either. The store closes to early for a weekend and they no longer have the yummy variety of soft serve ice cream(my children think this is the worse thing they did). Hopefully they will bring some of these things back.

New Owners.. too Corporate 

Upon arrival we had a bit of a mix up. Someone was planted in our assigned spot. After a phone call, all was ok. The farm has goats, a donkey, and a pony within the campground. Very cool. Weekend was busy as usual but during the week it seems to be seasonal that stay. A bit out here in the middle of nowhere, 15-20 minutes from any town. Make sure you have what you need! Other than that, I would definitely come back.

Clean and Quiet


Some things you should be aware of before booking: 
The office, playground, dog park, pool, laundry are located at the top of the hill. 
Camping spots are downhill, a good distance from the office and amenities. 
Trash is located off site in a pullout on the road you drive in on. There are 2 showers for women and 2 for men. Both are old and not well maintained or in our experience clean, either. 
In general the camping spots are not well maintained, weedy, un-level and picnic tables are weathered and warped. 
This resort campground is composed of mainly residents, the rules (we observed) apply to the overnight campers, not the residents. 
Children of the residents run free all day and past curfew in the evenings unsupervised. 
The setting is quiet, the views from the upper level are lovely. With some updating of bath facilities, cleaning and leveling of campsites, uniform enforcement of rules, Pleasant Acres could become a resort destination.


Not a Resort, despite the name and per night fee.

Lots of seasonals and lots of cabins, many RV sites I think all with full hookups.  A bit pricey. And also no garbage anywhere near the RV sites!  Rv sites were mostly pretty flat, spacious and in a wooded area which we loved.  Visited in October so leaves were falling and it was perfect weather.  There were not many campground employees around.  Good family fun though!  Plenty to occupy the kids. Playground, hayride, animals to feed (goats, chickens, donkey and pony).  There were some organized activities which was nice, not as much as a Jellystone Park.  We also parked backwards in our site to buddy up with our friends so if you see in the picture, the campsites really were a lot bigger but we didn’t care bc we wanted to “share the living space”.  We used the rest of the campsite on the drivers side of the RV to throw the frisbee, football and play badminton.  
The garbage situation was the worst.  Most campsites have a service, they tell you to leave it at a specific location by a certain time or they have many garbage cans throughout.  This place had their garbage and recycling very far away and without a golf cart (which they had none to offer) or a car, you’re stuck… we were traveling in a large class C (3nights) with one family in a Class A and another in a cabin.  The family in the cabin had a car so they drove all of our garbage to the place for us.  If they weren’t with us, this wouldn’t have been the place to go, especially for the price I was disappointed about that.  Otherwise overall it was a great place to camp and we enjoyed it tremendously!

Great family fun, a bit pricey and garbage off site with no one to pick it up. 

When you leave you have to drive the wrong way in the campground because of the low hanging trees the correct direction.  There is a small playground, a mini golf, and a large dog walk.￼  The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable of the area.  One downfall is you have to drive to the trash bin it is way too far to walk.  Our site 30 is overgrown with weeds as were most of the sites although it had been mowed.
