Come here if you want a nightclub in the woods
I'm typing this at 2:22 AM as the group site next to us has been playing amplified music into the wee hours of the morning for two nights in a row.. We called the number for the noise complaints...and nothing. Where is the oversight in this place? There is no park ranger on site. So you are pretty much on your own here. If you are looking for a nice peaceful getaway from the city to quietly enjoy nature....this is not it. I've been looking forward to this trip all year(after having stayed here in 2013).... I'm am so disappointed.
***Additionally:
There was a thunderstorm on Thursday night, and in the past a police officer or ranger would warn us to sleep in our cars if the storm was too close. I naively assumed the same would have happened now. That did not happen now. I stayed up all night and timed the Thunder and lightning in case I had to warn our group.
Great first time camping experience
As my first time ever camping, this location was great and everything went smoothly. We reserved spot #67 and got information from the office about paddle board rentals and bought firewood. The bathrooms and dishwashing sink were convenient and a close walk. We went to turtle beach one day and did the Mt Tammany hike as well. No phone service or wifi at the campsite so keep that in mind.

Can’t wait to come back!
This place is amazing! While it’s easy to find and easy enough to access, it’s also tucked into a quiet corner of the state, providing plenty of privacy and enjoyment.
We tent camped in site #16 on the south end of the property, right on the Delaware River. I don’t think I’ve ever been on a site with so much privacy. The bathrooms and showers are located in a building that’ll take all of two minutes to walk to. Both the bathrooms and showers need an update, but they were mostly clean and functional during our stay.
Everything on the south end of the property is nestled against the river. On the north end, the property opens up and there’s more space, but less privacy. Either way, it’s a gorgeous setting.
