Ponderosa Campground offers a 1600 square foot saltwater pool. The pool has a zero-depth entry, making it easy to get in and enjoy. It also features water jets and a fountain for your entertainment. A lot of thought went into designing a pool that is enjoyable for everyone. There is a deeper section for adults and a shallower, child-friendly side, that offers a depth from 6 inches to 3 feet. Multiple water pumps, filters, and chlorination ensure the pool water is clean, safe, and refreshing for all.
We have a pirate ship play area located adjacent to the pool, which allows your child’s dreams of pirate adventure to come true. Within the campground you will also find a full and a half-court for basketball, a volleyball court, and a playground with a swing set, which offer fun activities for all ages.
Ponderosa Campground staff are friendly and knowledgeable about many of the attractions in the area. Whether it’s the beaches from Avalon to Cape May, the boardwalks of Wildwood, Ocean City, Atlantic City or lots of things in between, feel free to ask us any questions you may have.
Ponderosa Campground offers a clean bathhouse with FREE hot showers (for our Rustic Cabin rentals), along with a touch of seashore decor.

Please be advised that NO outside firewood is permitted in the campground due to safety reasons. Outside firewood will be confiscated and disposed of.
