Camping near Beachwood, New Jersey
Beachwood sits on the Toms River in Ocean County, at the center of the Jersey Shore. The town works well as a base for RV travelers because it puts Barnegat Bay, the Atlantic beaches, the Pine Barrens, and Six Flags Great Adventure all within a short drive. Most nearby campgrounds are private RV resorts geared to families, plus one state park option to the north.
Within roughly a 30-mile radius, options include Tip Tam Camping Resort and Butterfly Camping Resort in Jackson, both close to Six Flags Great Adventure; Sun Retreats Long Beach Island in Barnegat, about ten miles from the LBI beaches; and Allaire State Park in Farmingdale, which offers a forested public-land alternative. Cedar Creek Campground and Canoe Rent in Bayville, long a fixture on Route 9, has closed after being acquired by Ocean County for permanent preservation, so campers should route to other options.
Expect wooded, sandy sites typical of the Pinelands, humid summers, and heavy weekend demand from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
Things to do around Beachwood
Water is the main draw. Barnegat Bay sits minutes east, with fishing, crabbing, kayaking, and paddleboarding launches along the shore. Island Beach State Park and the Seaside Heights boardwalk are about a fifteen to twenty minute drive over the Route 37 bridge, and Long Beach Island lies further south via Route 72.
Inland, Double Trouble State Park preserves several thousand acres of Pinelands forest, cranberry bogs, and the Wild and Scenic Cedar Creek, popular for flatwater paddling. Families often pair a campground stay with Six Flags Great Adventure and Safari in Jackson, about 25 minutes northwest. The Barnegat Branch Trail, a paved rail-trail, runs through Berkeley Township for cycling and walking.

The core camping season along this stretch of the Jersey Shore runs from spring through late fall. Tip Tam Camping Resort operates April 1 to October 31 and closes in the off-season. Sun Retreats Long Beach Island and Butterfly Camping Resort follow a similar spring-to-fall pattern; confirm exact opening and closing dates with each operator before booking.
Allaire State Park has historically kept its family campsites open year-round, but they are currently closed for construction of a new bathroom and shower facility. Group camping at Allaire remains open April 1 through December 15, and the trailer sanitary station runs mid-April to mid-October. Confirm status directly before routing there.
Summer weekends, the July 4 holiday, and Labor Day sell out first, especially anything near Six Flags or Long Beach Island. Late-season Atlantic hurricanes and tropical storms occasionally force early departures in August and September; not every private park offers a named-storm refund policy, so trip insurance is worth considering.

Jacek was amazing with communication and having the advantages being able to have the RV delivered and set up was amazing. I wouldn’t have been able to do it myself. The camper was super clean, and comfortable. We had a great time.

How to book campsites near Beachwood
New Jersey State Park sites, including Allaire State Park, are reserved through the state system at njportal.com/DEP/NJOutdoors, or by phone at the park office. Reservations can be made up to eleven months in advance, and popular summer and holiday weekends fill quickly, so booking at least three months out is advisable. A day-use vehicle pass is required at state parks during peak season in addition to any camping fee.
Private resorts each run their own booking systems. Tip Tam Camping Resort, Butterfly Camping Resort, and Sun Retreats Long Beach Island all accept reservations through their own websites and by phone directly with the office. For summer stays, reserve as early as possible after the previous fall.
What to expect on arrival
Sites in this part of Ocean and Monmouth County tend to be sandy and shaded by pitch pine and oak. Expect close spacing at private resorts, and a mix of seasonal and transient sites at Tip Tam Camping Resort, which sits on a residential road in Jackson. Butterfly Camping Resort and Sun Retreats Long Beach Island offer pull-throughs, 30- and 50-amp service, and full hookups on most RV sites.
Allaire State Park has 45 tent and trailer sites with fire rings and picnic tables, plus shelters with a wood stove that sleep four, but no hookups; big rigs should request open sites since some interior campground roads are narrow and heavily wooded. Black bears are present in New Jersey parks, so store food accordingly. Pets are generally allowed on leash, with restrictions around pools and some tent-only areas.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Beachwood, NJ
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Beachwood, NJ?
An RV rental in Beachwood typically runs between $95 and $275 per night, depending on the size and age of the rig. Compact campervans and small travel trailers sit at the lower end, while Class A motorhomes and luxury fifth wheels are on the higher side. To score a cheap RV rental Beachwood travelers love, book midweek (Sunday through Thursday), aim for shoulder season in May or September, and look for hosts offering weekly discounts. Pro tip: pairing a travel trailer with a campsite at Turkey Swamp Park or Tip Tam Camping Resort often costs less than a hotel room down the shore in peak summer.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Beachwood%2C%20New%20JerseyDo I need a special license to rent an RV in New Jersey?
Good news: your regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Beachwood. New Jersey does not require a commercial driver's license (CDL) for any motorhome you'll find on RVezy, including Class A, Class C, and campervans. You'll just need to be 25 or older and complete a quick ID verification through the RVezy platform. Visiting from abroad? Bring your home-country license along with an International Driving Permit (IDP), usually under $20 from your local auto club. Most first-time renters are surprised at how straightforward the paperwork is, leaving more time to focus on planning the fun parts of the trip.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection is included with my Beachwood RV rental?
Every booking on RVezy automatically includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can hit the Garden State Parkway with real peace of mind. The protection plan covers most physical damage to the RV during your trip, and you choose your coverage level during checkout, not the host. Whether you're heading to Long Beach Island for a beach week or boondocking near the Pine Barrens, you'll have a safety net behind you. Pro tip: review the coverage tiers carefully at booking. Picking a higher tier for a longer trip often costs only a few extra dollars per night and dramatically lowers your out-of-pocket exposure.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Beachwood RV trip?
Booking an RV rental in Beachwood is low-risk because RVezy (not individual hosts) sets the cancellation policy, and it includes a money-back grace period right after you book. That means if your plans change shortly after confirming, you're protected. Refund amounts after that window depend on how close you are to your trip start date. If a host cancels on you, RVezy will help you rebook or issue a refund or credit. Pro tip: book early to lock in your dates and rig, then revisit your plans with confidence knowing the RVezy policy and support team are there if life throws you a curveball.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Beachwood?
Absolutely, plenty of hosts offer a pet-friendly RV rental Beachwood travelers can book in just a few clicks. Use the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy to instantly narrow your search to rigs that welcome four-legged passengers. Once you've picked your RV, point the GPS toward dog-friendly spots like Jakes Branch County Park on Double Trouble Road, where leashed pups are welcome on the trails, or the off-season dog-friendly areas at Island Beach State Park. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm any pet fees and mention your dog's size and breed. Bringing along a portable water bowl and a shaded mat makes campsite life much happier for everyone.
oceancountyparks.org/Parks/Jakes-Branch-County-ParkCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Beachwood?
Yes, RV delivery Beachwood guests can enjoy is one of the easiest ways to start your trip, especially if you're new to RVing. Many local hosts will drop the rig directly at your campsite at Turkey Swamp Park, Sea Pirate Campground, or even a private driveway near the bay, then level it, hook up utilities, and walk you through every system. Just use the Delivery filter when searching, then confirm the delivery fee and distance with the host before booking. Pro tip: delivery is gold for first-time renters because you skip the stress of towing or maneuvering a big rig down narrow shore roads like Route 9 in peak summer traffic.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008594-RV-deliveryHow far can I drive from Beachwood on an RV road trip?
An RV road trip from Beachwood opens up the entire Mid-Atlantic. Long Beach Island is about 25 miles south, Atlantic City sits roughly 50 miles down the Garden State Parkway, Cape May is around 95 miles, the Delaware Water Gap is about 115 miles northwest, and the Pocono Mountains are roughly 130 miles away. Even the Finger Lakes are doable in a long weekend at about 280 miles. Some hosts offer unlimited mileage; others include 100 to 150 free miles per day with a small per-mile fee after that. Pro tip: filter for RV rental with unlimited mileage if you're planning to hop between multiple shore towns and the Pine Barrens in one trip.
nj.gov/transportation/Where are the best campgrounds near Beachwood, NJ?
The best campgrounds near Beachwood mix Pine Barrens woods with classic Jersey Shore vibes. Top picks include Turkey Swamp Park in Freehold (a quiet county park with electric and water hookups about 40 minutes north), Tip Tam Camping Resort in Jackson (family-friendly with a pool, around 25 minutes away), Sea Pirate Campground in West Creek (a short hop to Long Beach Island), Sun Retreats Long Beach Island in Tuckerton (beach access and amenities), and Wading Pines Camping Resort deep in the Pine Barrens. RV camping Beachwood travelers love often combines one woodland night with one shore-side stay. Pro tip: book Sea Pirate at least three months ahead for July and August because LBI weekends fill up fast.
seapiratecampground.com/When is the best time to visit Beachwood, NJ in an RV?
Late May through early October is the sweet spot for a Beachwood RV trip, with daytime highs ranging from the mid-70s in spring to the mid-80s in July and August, and ocean water warm enough for swimming from late June through September. September is the local insider's favorite: shore crowds thin, ocean water is still around 70 degrees, and campsite rates often drop. Winters are mild but damp, with January lows around 25 degrees, so most travelers prefer the warmer months. Pro tip: book a campervan rental Beachwood weekend in mid-September and you'll often have boardwalks like Seaside Heights almost to yourself.
weather.gov/phi/I've never rented an RV before. How does it work?
First time renting an RV? You're in great company, and Beachwood is a perfect place to start. Once you book on RVezy, your host will meet you for a hands-on orientation covering the basics: how to operate the generator, propane, water systems, slide-outs, and awning. You can also message the host with questions before you even book. Choose a smaller Class C motorhome rental Beachwood hosts offer or a campervan if you're nervous about size. Pro tip: plan a low-mileage first night at Tip Tam Camping Resort just 25 minutes away. You'll get comfortable with the systems before tackling a longer drive to Cape May or the Poconos.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/categories/360003051494-RentersWhat happens if the RV breaks down during my trip?
You're never on your own. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, so help is one phone call away whether you're on the Garden State Parkway, parked near Island Beach State Park, or boondocking near Wharton State Forest. The service covers common issues like flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, and towing. Your host is also typically reachable for quick questions about quirks specific to their rig. Pro tip: snap a photo of the roadside assistance number and save it to your phone's lock screen before you leave the driveway. That way, even in a low-signal Pine Barrens stretch, the number is right there when you need it.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340294-Roadside-assistanceCan I take my Beachwood RV rental across state lines or into Canada?
Yes, hopping state lines is one of the joys of an RV rental in New Jersey. From Beachwood, popular cross-state routes head to Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains, Delaware beaches, the Catskills in New York, and even up to coastal Maine. Canada is also allowed with most hosts as long as you confirm in advance so they can prep paperwork. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on any RVezy rental because insurance coverage does not extend there. Pro tip: if you're eyeing a cross-border Canadian trip, message the host before booking, bring your passport, and double-check that pets have current rabies certificates for the border crossing.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityHow much should I budget for fuel on a Beachwood RV trip?
Fuel is usually the biggest variable expense, so plan smart. Class C motorhomes around Beachwood typically get 8 to 12 miles per gallon, Class A rigs 6 to 10 MPG, and campervans 15 to 20 MPG. With New Jersey gas prices generally hovering around $3.10 to $3.60 per gallon (and remember, attendants pump your gas in NJ by state law), a 300-mile round trip to Cape May and back in a Class C will run roughly $90 to $130 in fuel. Pro tip: fill up in New Jersey before crossing into Pennsylvania, where you'll often pay more per gallon, and use the GasBuddy app to find the cheapest local stations along Route 9.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground near Beachwood?
For summer weekends at Jersey Shore campgrounds, book three to six months ahead, especially for Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day weekends. New Jersey state park sites like Bass River State Forest and Wharton State Forest take reservations through the NJ state parks reservation system, and popular sites disappear within days. Private parks like Sea Pirate and Tip Tam take direct online bookings on their own websites. Midweek and shoulder-season stays (May, September, October) are usually bookable just one or two weeks out. Pro tip: if you're flexible, set a calendar alert for the first Wednesday of each month to grab cancellations, which often pop up on the NJ state reservation system.
newjerseystateparks.reserveamerica.com/What are driving conditions like around Beachwood?
Driving conditions in and around Beachwood are friendly for RVers, with flat terrain and well-maintained roads. The Garden State Parkway is your main artery, but note that trucks and many trailers are restricted from certain northern sections of the Parkway and from the Palisades Interstate Parkway, so plan routes using Route 9, I-195, or the New Jersey Turnpike for larger rigs. Summer shore traffic on Fridays and Sundays can be heavy, especially heading to Long Beach Island via Route 72. Pro tip: aim to drive into the area on a Thursday or out on a Monday to dodge the worst of the bridge traffic, and always check clearance heights before crossing into Manhattan or under low Parkway bridges.
state.nj.us/turnpike/parkway-trucks.htmlWhat amenities can I expect at campgrounds near Beachwood?
Most campgrounds near Beachwood offer the full lineup RVers love: 30 and 50 amp electric hookups, potable water, sewer hookups or nearby dump stations, hot showers, laundry, and Wi-Fi at the office. Tip Tam and Sea Pirate add pools, playgrounds, and camp stores. State sites like Bass River State Forest are more rustic, often with electric but no sewer at the site, so plan a dump-station stop on the way out. The closest reliable dump station for a quick fee is typically at Tip Tam or a Flying J truck stop along I-195. Pro tip: fill your freshwater tank before you arrive on summer weekends, as water spigots can get busy during peak check-in hours.
nj.gov/dep/parksandforests/parks/bassriver.htmlWhat's inside a typical RV rental in Beachwood?
Most RVs on RVezy in the Beachwood area come surprisingly well-equipped. Expect a queen or king bed, bunks or convertible dinettes for kids, a kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, and sink, a wet or dry bathroom with toilet and shower, air conditioning, a furnace, and seatbelts for everyone traveling. Many include a TV, Bluetooth speakers, outdoor awning with lights, and an onboard or portable generator. Some hosts add Wi-Fi hotspots or Starlink, ideal for working remotely from a Pine Barrens campsite. Pro tip: check the listing's amenities list carefully and message the host if you need specifics like a CPAP-friendly outlet or extra propane for cold-weather heating in early spring or late fall.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Beachwood%2C%20New%20JerseyWhat add-ons and mileage policies should I know about?
Hosts in Beachwood often offer popular add-ons like bedding and linen packages, camping chairs, generators, bike racks, paddleboards, beach gear, and even pre-stocked kitchen kits, usually $10 to $50 each. Mileage policies vary: some listings include unlimited miles, while others provide 100 to 150 free miles per day with a small fee (often $0.30 to $0.45) for each extra mile. Pickup is typically at the host's location, but delivery and setup are widely available across Ocean County. Pro tip: if you're planning a beach-heavy week mostly parked at one campground, a limited-mileage listing with delivery can be the cheapest path. Long-distance road trippers should prioritize listings advertising RV rental with unlimited mileage.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008594-RV-deliveryHow does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and secure through RVezy: you pay the trip total (rental, fees, protection) by card at booking, and a refundable security deposit is held separately, typically a few days before pickup. Deposits vary by listing depending on the RV's value, and the hold is released after the host confirms the rig was returned in good shape, usually within a week of trip end. To avoid issues, do a thorough walkthrough video at pickup and dropoff with the host, noting any existing scratches or interior wear. Pro tip: use a credit card rather than debit so the hold doesn't tie up cash in your checking account during your Beachwood RV trip.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksWhere can I park an RV overnight in the Beachwood area?
Overnight RV parking in Beachwood is best done at a campground rather than on the street, since most Ocean County municipalities (Beachwood included) restrict overnight street parking of RVs and trailers. Your easiest options are Tip Tam Camping Resort, Sea Pirate Campground, Wading Pines, or state forest sites at Bass River and Wharton. Policies at retailers like Walmart and Cabela's vary by location in New Jersey, so always call ahead before planning an overnight stop. Pro tip: if you're arriving late, book a one-night stay at Tip Tam (just off I-195) as a soft-landing spot, then move to your beachside campground refreshed the next morning. That little buffer makes the whole trip smoother.
