Rating: 2 5 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This park has basically no amenities or services. The camping area was a big field with a few trees around the perimeter. There were some Porta potties across the field. Dry camping on a field costs us $30. The park ranger was rude about our camping at night after 7 pm, so we hadn't paid in advance. This left a very bad impression of their state parks. Don't recommend. - stocky
We stayed here since we could not get in to the Spruce Run Rec Area campgrounds, This site is about 10 minutes away, up on top of a hill. You must drive up some steep grades to get to the campsite. The sites are "primitive", no water, elecricity, etc. The site itself is pretty enough, with the campsites all bordering a large grassy field. Be warned, there's a fair amount of poison ivy here and there (especially around the small playground, which our 2-year-old was magnetically attracted to). The bath house was fairly disgusting; there are pit toilets and a couple of showers. Lots of paper strewn around, and very unpleasant odors (my wife had to use the men's latrine because the women's was so disgusting). A nice feature (for those so interested) is that the NJ Astronomical Assn's observatory is a short hike away; they tell me it's the largest public telescope (27") in NJ. Attended an open talk there on Sat night, but it was unfortunately too hazy to use the big telescope. Probably would not stay here again if there's space at Spruce Run. - Will Dennis
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Vorhees State Park »There was virtually no one else here during our visit (midweek prior to school letting out). Park is pretty and wooded, with hiking paths, playgrounds, picnic areas and even an observatory1! Staff exceedingly helpful and pleasant. We had no trouble parking our 35' Fifth Wheel, although there are probably not many sites that we could have used. We were able to set up our Internet dish, but again, few sites from which this would have been possible. Please note that pets and even possession of alcohol are prohibited by park rules. There is a dump, but I think a large rig would have trouble using it. The drive through town to get here includes a 12'6" overpass and somewhat narrow roads. (There is an alternate route around the overpass.) - User51

Rating: 3 6 8 6 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We called the ranger from the Interstate and were able to get space for our larger rig near the end of the day. We were warned that we would just be in a parking lot, basically. there is no potable water in the park, no hookups, just parked between lines, for space 1, in the parking lot, which we found unusual. The park was quiet at night, also we noticed the lake, which was hard to see from our location, was down in water level as well.
we used the dump station on the way out in the morning. Also, roads to the park are paved but fairly uneven asphalt. Don't go into the area needing fuel, as there are only two choices, and the main road has a huge concrete New Jersey barrier running up and down the highway, which necessitates doing huge and dangerous U-turns with a rig. We finally had to unhook, just to get into a place. We wouldn't go back to the park again, unless a real emergency for a place to stay. We listed the site satisfactory only because we have no problem dry camping and with the threat of rain, we thought it would be ok to park on pavement. - MexicanpilotoStayed before the weekend, reservation website will show available sites but must reserve at least two nights in order to book plus Reserve America reservation fee. Weekend most sites were reserved, mixture of grass field and reservoir/lakeside sites. Main roads are paved, roads in campground are gravelly as are the campground parking sites. Sandy beach is a distance walk from campground which make the sites more private. Bathhouses are older and have individual toilet and separate shower units. Most sites are level and well spaced, low hanging tree branches make some campsite roads difficult to maneuver with bigger rigs. No hook-ups but good dump station and water connection by campground entrance. - travelin' guy
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Spruce Run Recreation Area »A beautiful park on the Spruce Run Reservoir. The condition of the restrooms were the main reason I could not rate the park as a 10. The facilities are quite worn and, although they were cleaned daily, weekend use was overwhelming and by Saturday night things were pretty grungy. There were 5 stalls and 3 showers (one of each wheelchair accessible)in each of the two bathroom buildings, but one of the buildings had only one shower in use, and one of the men's showers ran cold water only. Weekdays the campground was almost empty. It is primarily a popular weekend place for extended families who are tent-camping; definitely great for kids with the lake, a beach, boat rentals and playgrounds. Our spot was tight for a 32' Fifth-wheel due to overhanging trees. (There is lots of space between sites.)If you have a rig this large the following sites will accommodate you: 7, 8, 9, 16, 17, 21, 24, 33, 39, 61, 67, 70. Note: The park day-use area allows pets, but the campground does not. - Horizons28

Rating: 5 6 3 4 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: When we pulled up, we were taken aback, because it looked like a trailer sale lot. Figured since we were here for two nights, it wouldn't be an issue. Very friendly in the office! The woman in the office wrote all the train schedules for NY for us. We drove through, and found our spot. Looked like some long term residents. Very quiet. - StephanieBekker
We stayed for two nights in early December of 2016. It was one of only four campgrounds open year round within a one hour drive of Lehigh Valley, PA. It was quiet and not very busy. You could tell it was hunting season from the dear hanging from the swing set. The roads are gravel and have some potholes that are avoidable for the most part. There were a lot of trees, but we were able to get our 40' 5th wheel parked without a problem. There was a play area and it also had a pool. It was closed for the winter, so we cannot comment on the pool. There are dumpsters on site. There are no sewer connections at the campsites, but there is a centrally located, back-in dump station. They also offer Propane for purchase. Others have posted reviews on other sites stating that it was confusing because you drove through a "utility lot" (which you do), but the campground gives you a map and it is easy to find your spot with the map they provide when you check in. We would stay here again off season. We were grateful they were open in early December and we gave it a chance, even with the other reviews. We did not use the restrooms, so we cannot comment on them. They are pet-friendly as we have indoor cats and a neighbor had a dog. - QueenBeeQT
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Jugtown Mountain Campsites »All previous comments were on target. We needed a place for the evening. Park in back of trailer sales company. Roads are in horrible shape. Person at desk told us to pick out any we wanted. Took 3 attempts to find one to use. Roads are very rutty and windy. Many old campers parked throughout the campground. Could not find a restroom. Water pressure was low and ware had a bad smell. - JOHNGW

Rating: 2 3 5 9 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Just spent two nights in a 40’ FW. All the other reviews are true. This was not a Campground in our opinion. It’s just full of contractors, working personnel, and just full time residents. And sadly, most are some pretty scary RVs. We really didn’t feel safe here, so we didn’t go outside much. It is a dump. Utilities worked perfect. The worker in the office was not from the area and knew nothing we asked. If you are a big rig, fifth wheel with less than 9” inches bed clearance, or anything low to the ground, Do Not Visit this campground. The gravel roads are just river rock with giant potholes. GPS will take you to the wrong entrance. The swimming pool is a tiny above ground pool that doesn’t have water in it. All the water ponds are all washed out and looks terrible. And of course, comes mosquitoes. We will never return. I’m just glad our fifth wheel wasn’t damaged getting in or out. Large shopping center across from the back entrance. - jabberb
We stayed here for 2 nights in late March. The entrance our GPS brought us to was the back entrance and it had a gate that was permanently locked which blocked the road to the front entrance. On the exit they have spike strips to prevent people from driving the wrong way BUT these are located on a hill so make sure to not roll back. The roads were all gravel and were pretty beat up with large holes everywhere. Getting to our site was very tricky as they have 5th wheels sticking out to far from the site on both sides of the road which only gave us a couple of extra inches to squeeze by without scrapping one or the other. I would not stay here again. - CamperWill136
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Fla-Net Park »The campground is neither great nor terrible. It seems to have a large population of permanent residents, but most seem to maintain their campers and sites. There are a handful that look pretty trashy. Unleashed, uncollared, untagged dogs running loose. Lots of dog poop everywhere. The sites are mostly pretty tight, especially if you have slides on both sides. The neighbors awning is hanging over into my site a bit. Too tight to even bother putting out a chair and sitting out. Water pressure is good, power is steady. Didn't use the cable, so I cannot comment. Good signals on both Verizon and T-Mobile. Nice power box. Was able to put a lock on it to secure my surge suppressor. Road coming in is very, very rough, narrow, windy. Lots of pot holes. It did appear that there are preparations to repave and possibly widen a bit. It's safe enough if you drive slowly. I'm here a couple of nights for a work assignment. Not a place I would likely to return to for any other reason. - cKarlGo

Rating: 8 5 8 7 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We arrived late afternoon, following a scenic 5 mile drive on route 614. There is a one-lane 11'6" underpass to navigate - no problem for our teardrop - with alternate routing available to larger rigs. We were warmly greeted by Doug who, knowing we were only staying 1 night and wanted to get on the road early the next day, thoughtfully directed us to site #2, a large and nearly level site immediately adjacent to the office. Mountainview, self-described as "close to primitive," offers a bucolic setting, close to the little town of Milford, with beautiful woods and fields that are home to lots of visible wildlife (deer, ducks, and chickens). - rosielife
$38 for w/e. Ground was very wet when we arrived. No road to our site and had to drive up hill through grass to get to it. Spun tires so instead had to drive across hill to make to site. Not at all comfortable as I was concerned about getting stuck or tipping over! Site was recently built, soft and very muddy. Jacks buried in mud and still not level. Owner was nice enough to trim overhanging branches so that we would fit in. Would've cost $15 to dump tanks since we only stayed one night so we did not. Also difficult to get to due to several low underpasses from I-78 to campsite. - Teddi2
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Mountainview Campground »Loved this campground. The campground is a mixture of fields and treed sites. Plenty of places to walk past sweet smelling fields of hay or along treed paths. During our stay we watched fireflies light on the fields. There is a playground but no other activities. There are free range chickens and a small pond with four ducks that will follow you if you feed them. Quiet, relaxing and a great place to stay. Only con is no sewer hookup; a once a week pump out is available for a fee, and there is a dump station on site. The owner goes out of his way to make sure you enjoy your stay. - TravelingParkers

Rating: 9 10 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This is only 20 minutes from our home and it has taken us 2 years to get here! I wish we had come sooner. We biked the tow path to Stockton and crossed the bridge to Dilly's Corner. What an amazing weekend skipping rocks on the Delaware and hiking & biking the beautiful area. We cannot wait to come back. We choose site 15 as other reviewers said it was spacious. We agree. It was near the bath/shower house and was close to the path to the river. We will come again. Most everyone was friendly, no rif-raf. Great family camping! Finally a place in Jersey we would venture back too. - Rkidsluvcamping
This is one of our favorite campgrounds. It sit on the Delaware river. It might be a little tight with a big trailer 40'. We had a 21' fifth wheel toy hauler and had no problems. We had site 15 which is a huge site and we parked 2 RV's on it. Site 44 is also another nice site. - Jodee
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Bull Island »This place was excellent! Level sites, mostly quiet. Sandwiched between the DNR canal and the Delaware River. The bathrooms were very clean and the showers had loads of pressure and space. Plenty of cheap firewood for sale around the park. Frenchtown is nearby with some great shops and places to eat. We will be going back in September for another kayaking trip. - kleoette
