It has nice walking paths, lots of benches and picnic tables and a great play area for kids. It has lots of beautiful plants and trees and provides a very relaxing area for a walk or just to sit by the river and enjoy the view. I was here on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and there were hardly any people here. There is not a ton of parking so if it were to get busy I am not sure if that would be a problem but worth a try. I would recommend a stop if you need a nice relaxing moment in your day.

So while we were sitting around the camp fire we both heard this loud kinda like a horse was snorting and stomping. Actually like 100 horses. And we were sober! I grab my flashlight and this thing was playing cat and mouse shit with me going from one side of cabin 3 to the other. But the one time I peeped it's hairy foot. Then came around and sure as shit it's BIGFOOT LIKE 8 FOOT TALL AND JUST MASSIVE. I SCREAMED LIKE A WARRIOR AND IT JUST RETREATED INTO THE WOODS. WE RAN IN CABIN 2 SO QUICK. THEN I STAYED UP ALL TILL NEXT MORNING ON BIGFOOT WATCH. JUST TO MAKE SURE IT WASN'T GOING TO MESS WITH US. WE HAVEN'T BEEN BACK SINCE

Great state park! Camping here is fun! The loops at the top of the park are more spacious and…read moresometimes more private. The ones in H loop are really squeezed in and have less space and no privacy. It's hard to book a site, and so frustrating to see empty sites that have been booked but not used. The bathrooms are some of the cleanest camping bathrooms I've ever seen. They're pretty well maintained. The horses do wander free, and you need to be careful with food on your site, as explained by the park rangers. But it's fun to see them and watch them. The camp hosts are good about cleaning and maintaining the area they're each in charge of. The beaches are nice and it's fun to go clamming out in the bay. A very quick drive will take you to Ocean City, to the boardwalk, to go karts, Walmart, Wawa, the movie theater, etc. Lots close by to do if you get caught there on a rainy day. Lovely place to visit.

I was so eager to see the horses I heard about, but weary we might not see any. Maybe we were lucky, because we saw sooo many horses! On the road, in the parking lots, in marshes, wandering, grazing, standing on front of cars. So cute! Stop at the visitors center first. Very nice place, helpful information, exhibits, a touch tank, bathrooms, gift shop and then you'll be on your way. Admission per vehicle gets you access for a week. We loved spending a few hours here so much that we came back a second day. The beaches are clean and not crowded. Lots of dogs, so be warned if you're averse. The marsh trail was really cool. We saw several small fishies, pipefish, crabs, egrets, just really cool to look in the water throughout the trail and observe. Bayside beaches are hidden spots for isolated swims. I saw a family here and there just swimming completely alone. The forest trail was also a good one to walk. More interesting nature. We weren't too crazy about the dune trail. Although, it was interesting to see the old abandoned road in the middle of the dune. Horses here there and everywhere, almost. Overall, such a fun place to visit. Go for a few hours or spend the day. Remember, ensure it's breezy and you'll be almost completely fly free.

There's two piers for fishing or you can use them just to enjoy the scenery. I saw a lot of Blue Crabs, Fiddler Crabs, butterflies, and A Green Heron!

It is a very nice waterside park with a large playground area for kids, a covered picnic area and of course the area with a walkway along the water with a few covered gazebo areas. There is substantial parking and lots of places to sit. We did not use the restroom facilities but nice to know they are there.

I parked and spent about 20 minutes enjoying the beach and the sunshine. The beach is beautiful. No trash, firm sand and a smooth include down into the water.

That is the one draw for nice sunny days. That said, this place is freshly redone, looks beautiful, and has made excellent use of its acreage, to get a variety of recreational options into every corner of the space! Port-a-potty restrooms off the parking lot. Playground has a SUPER HIGH slide that is pretty friggin exciting. Plenty of play structures, swings (one all-abilities swing), and rubber turf. Pavilion has a number of picnic tables and trash cans. Adjacent green lawn space can be used for picnicking or chilling. Not enough room to fly a kite, but the beaches are so close, they're much better for that anyway. Sport courts (tennis, basketball, pickle ball) are gorgeously surfaced, and well-netted/-fenced. Dog park is all fenced, bag station, benches, and rules clearly posted. Great find in Cape May County!!!
