The new bath house (amazing water pressure with hot water on demand), the improved water system, landscaping, community events by the pool, tons of pet waste stations that never run out of bags, general maintenance and camaraderie - everything is lovely. There may be too many Phillies & Eagles fans for this New Yorker, but that's nobody's fault! PS. The neon sign that looks like a stock ticker on the front of the bathhouse is god awful, it's the only thing that actually makes the place look like a trailer park as opposed to the beautiful development that it is, it's just gotta go

The location is perfect, close to Avalon, Stone Harbor, Sea Isle City and just a short distance from Wildwood and Cape May. The campground has lots of seasonals and lots of cabins with bathrooms. There are a few cabins without bathrooms but don't worry, the bath house is clean. We love to sit out at night and just relax. We never have to worry about loud music or loud people, it's pretty quiet. Marci the owner is always quick to help out or answer questions. We plan on staying here for years to come.

It is very obvious that he cares not one bit about this place. Organized activities have pretty much stopped. The game room is not open consistently, and half of the games do not work. People no longer pick up after their dogs. The grass is not cut regularly. The flower beds are not weeded and munched. People are dumping fire pits and leaves in the woods next to the campground, which this campground does not own. Signs state Private Property No Tresspassing and No Dumping, yet nothing is done after it was brought to the attention of management.​ The streets are not blown off anymore. The upkeep on the volleyball court and baseball diamond is no more. Grass now grows on the court and on the diamond. The pools were ripped out at the end of the 2025 season to make way for new improved pools! What a joke. Management promised new pools at the beginning of the 2026 season. Opening came and went, no pools. Then Mgr said Memorial day. Nope no pool. It is now into June, and still no pools. Emailing management does nothing. The manager, Michael Slifer just ignores the emails and complaints. If you do get a response from him, it is "You can leave". He is running this place into the ground. It is very sad to see.

I have been going to big timber lake campground since I was a kid…read more In the past I have to admit the staff was a little ruff around the edges at times. The over all campground is very family oriented and kept clean with many activities thought out the day and night. I visited many campgrounds in the area but always came back being it seemed to be the best. I have noticed this year they replaced the whole staff being sun Rv took over the camp ground a couple years ago. They seem to have it very organized and the staff was very pleasant. I typically only rent the cottages now. Always clean and well kept. Would highly recommend Big Timber Lake

We have family that have a seasonal spot and we're looking forward to the trip. I was greatly disappointed. There was no mention that the living area was in this condition and when my family and myself brought it up to the staff they continued to say they couldn't do anything about it cause we already had a good rate due to our family having a permanent spot at the campground. They just stared and didn't offer to Move our cabin or any resolution. The person that I would need to speak to was "off" or "in a meeting" the whole trip. Mind you there were plenty of other open cabins on our street and the next street. I wasn't asking for money. I was asking for an alternative to having my children and myself essentially in these conditions during our vacation. My first night after seeing this all I wanted to do was go home. Would have been better off and saved 700$. We knew during the trip since it was off season we wouldn't get to use most amenities like the pool or lake or other things offered and we're looking forward for a nice cabin and couldn't even get that. I would save your money or find another spot to camp if you don't already have your own trailer where you can be sure of the conditions. Pictures posted!

The site itself was large and semi level and the hookups were in good working order. Water pressure could have been better but it was OK. Overall the place was quiet with only minor issues. The rules seem a little strict but it doesn't seem that they really enforce them as you don't see the staff much as you go into the campground. I had a nice experience and left feeling relaxed and refreshed and would definitely come back.

I was particularly concerned about the comments made about cleanliness and customer service. When I checked in, I was welcomed so kindly by one of the young staff members. It helped alleviate my anxiety a bit. Although, I could tell that some of the other staff members were not as personable. We rented one of the deluxe cabins. They look exactly how they are photographed on the website. We walked in and the air conditioner was already on for us. Something so simple as that really made a difference. The cabin was comfortable, clean, and the beds were so much better than I expected. I would highly recommend renting one of the deluxe cabins. The only negative thing I can say concerns the pool. It's on the smaller size and gets so packed. After a while the water isn't very appealing. I really hope that the pool gets cleaned regularly.

We never got a call, checked in at 3pm and tried to shower around 5pm. The entire top of the drain was clogged full of hair. Looked everywhere for someone on site for help. The office closed at 4pm, emergency number called twice no one answered or ever called us back. Following morning: call office she says she will send someone over. Waited almost two hours, still couldn't shower called her back. This was her response: someone has to run to get drano yet no one even looked at our issue. Never heard from anyone again. We were on vacation and had plans so we pulled the hair out ourselves. This place has failed on maintaining the campground. It needs a ton of work done plenty of photos taken and will make a formal complaint as well. At 7k per annual permanent site you'd think it would be immaculate. I asked if my Daughter and her fiance made it in what would be required she said $20 per person per day even though we had a 2 bedroom cabin! Stay somewhere else...
