Acorn Campground

I am a seasonal camper here. I love having my family and friends down, and of course, our camper friends are like family. The cons ever since Acorn Campground was purchased by Thousand Trails, the campground is like the forgotten stepchild, the roads inside are horrible, and we will not have a pool this year, because they did not do their job and pull the correct permits 2 weeks before Memorial Day. There are no safe fishing ponds FYI. But they keep raising the fees all of us seasonals have a very hard decision to make.

Would never stay here again. The pool is not open for the summer and we were not informed of this. They advertise 2 playgrounds and there is only 1. The roads have potholes all over, couldn’t even ride my bike. The gate is constantly up so anyone could come in. The bathrooms are filthy. The fishing ponds are overgrown. Mosquitoes and tics everywhere. They definitely need to spray. The manager never addresses any issues. Don’t waste your money here!!

3rd year as a seasonal resident here and I couldn’t be more disappointed with the property management company that owns the place. This is the 3rd year in a row that we haven’t had a pool open when it’s supposed to be. This year it appears like we won’t have one all summer. And the management here is trying to blame the delay on us, for questioning the township about permits. It’s poorly lit coking from the street. Dangerous pulling in when towing. The roads are in horrible condition, my kids can’t ride their bikes anymore. Their “fishing” ponds are horribly overgrown and untreated.

The campground is located on a great overlook mountain range. July 4th camping here was excellent to see the fireworks in towns below. The johns (porta potties) were clean and didn't smell at all. Just note no electric or running water which wasn't a problem for us as we were prepared with battery sources and water jugs. The sites were well maintained too.
We enjoyed our wkend here amd would come back anytime. Plenty to do in the area.

I saw all the bad reviews and canceled my first time I booked. The next day me and my wife decided that we should give it a shot and I’m glad we did. I honestly loved it there. The pool is open and it’s really nice, the location is 10 minutes from Wildwood and there’s a bunch of restaurants around going towards the beach. We had an issue with our breaker the first night and it took them 15 minutes to help us out. The employees are so kind and helpful and that’s very important to us. For the negatives, there’s only Wi-Fi in the lobby, some of the arcade machines are down, and the shower area can use a really good scrubbing. Honestly, the good weigh out the bad and we will definitely be coming back many times in the future.
