Camping near Cape May Court House, New Jersey
Cape May Court House sits in Middle Township at the center of Cape May County, minutes inland from the Atlantic beaches of Stone Harbor, Avalon, Wildwood, and Cape May. The town works well as an RV base because it is close to the Garden State Parkway and to most of the county's private campgrounds, yet quieter than the shore points themselves.
Options in and around town include Adventure Bound Camping Resorts - Cape May, Adventure Bound Cape May, Shellbay Campgrounds, Sun Retreats Avalon, and Sea Pines RV Resort and Campground. Most are large, family-oriented resorts with pools and cabins alongside RV sites.
There are no campgrounds directly on the beach, but many sit within the wooded landscape along the mainland areas of Cape May County. For public-land camping, Belleplain State Forest is about 20 miles north within the Pinelands National Reserve, with quiet pine and cedar forest sites, over forty miles of trails, and swimming at Lake Nummy.
Things to do near Cape May Court House
The Cape May County Park and Zoo sits on Route 9 in Cape May Court House, with more than 85 acres of exhibits, over 550 animals representing 250 species, and free admission year-round. The zoo is open every day except Christmas, with summer hours from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and shorter winter hours. Tree to Tree Adventure Park, adjacent to the zoo, offers ziplining, nets, and ropes obstacle courses for all ages and abilities.
A short drive south, Cape May Point State Park offers walking and nature trails, beaches, an exhibit gallery, and the Cape May Lighthouse. To the north, Wildwood delivers thrill rides, water parks, arcades, and boardwalk entertainment at Morey's Piers. Local bike paths connect Historic Cold Spring Village to the county zoo for an easy car-free ride.

The camping season runs heaviest from Memorial Day through Labor Day, when shore traffic and campground occupancy peak. Most private resorts operate on a similar schedule, with strong shoulder seasons on either side and family-oriented programming that draws repeat visitors.
Late spring and early fall are the practical sweet spot for an RV trip. Days are warm, humidity is lower than midsummer, and reservations are easier to secure. Fall weekends remain popular because of themed events at the resorts, including Halloween weekends with trick-or-treating, costume contests, and site decorating, and these dates fill up fast.
Winter is quiet. Many private campgrounds close for the season, while Belleplain State Forest campsites remain open all year, though the trailer sanitary station has no hose from November through March. Spring brings notable birding activity, as Belleplain is internationally known for its spring migration.
How to book a campsite near Cape May Court House
Private resorts near Cape May Court House, including Adventure Bound Camping Resorts - Cape May, Adventure Bound Cape May, Shellbay Campgrounds, Sun Retreats Avalon, and Sea Pines RV Resort and Campground, take reservations directly through their own websites and by phone. Summer weekends at shore campgrounds fill months ahead, so lock in dates as soon as travel plans are firm. Halloween and holiday weekends are among the first to sell out at the family resorts.
For public land, online reservations for Belleplain State Forest can be made through the New Jersey State Park Service at camping.nj.gov. State park sites have a two-vehicle limit per campsite, with additional vehicles subject to an added nightly fee. Pets are allowed only at designated pet-friendly sites within the Meisle and CCC loops, and must be leashed at all times.
What to expect at Cape May Court House campgrounds
Local private resorts are set up for families. Expect swimming pools, playgrounds, general stores, laundry facilities, and Wi-Fi, with cabin and on-site RV rentals common alongside full-hookup and tent sites. Pet policies vary by resort, so confirm before booking if traveling with a dog.
Hookup options at private parks typically include full water, electric, sewer, and cable sites with 20, 30, or 50-amp service, water and electric sites, and standard tent sites. State forest camping is more basic: Belleplain has 169 tent and trailer sites with fire rings and picnic tables, flush toilets, showers, and laundry within walking distance of all sites, with water and electric hookups available at the CCC campgrounds only. Each site accommodates a maximum of six campers, two vehicles, and three tents.

seashorecampsites.com/Can the RV be delivered to my campground in Cape May Court House?

nj.gov/dep/parksandforests/parks/belle.htmlWhen is the best time of year for an RV trip from Cape May Court House?
Honestly, late spring and early fall are the sweet spot. May, June, and September deliver warm 70 to 80°F days, fewer crowds, and lower nightly rates on RV rental Cape May Court House listings. July and August are peak beach season with 85°F highs and lively boardwalks in Wildwood and Ocean City, but expect heavier Garden State Parkway traffic and pricier campgrounds. October brings stunning fall birdwatching at Cape May Point, one of North America's top migration spots. Winter rentals dip but many hosts close for the season. Pro tip: book a shoulder-season trip in mid-September, the ocean is still swimmable, restaurants stay open, and you'll feel like you've got the shore to yourself.
weather.gov/phi/I have never rented an RV before. Will I be okay?
You're going to do great. First time renting an RV is easier than most people expect, especially in Cape May Court House where many hosts offer delivery, setup, and a full walkthrough of every system, from the propane stove to the awning. If you'd rather drive yourself, your host will give you an in-person orientation at pickup covering hookups, dump procedures, and dashboard controls. You can also message the host with questions before booking. Pro tip: choose a smaller Class C motorhome or campervan rental Cape May Court House for your first trip, they drive much like a large van and handle the narrow streets around historic Cape May without any drama.

Every RV rental in Cape May Court House includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the RVezy renter protection plan, so help is one phone call away whether you've got a flat on the Garden State Parkway, a dead battery at Belleplain State Forest, or a propane issue at your campsite.

help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Cape May Court House RV rental into other states or Canada?
Yes, a multi-state RV road trip from Cape May Court House is totally doable and one of the joys of renting here. You're surrounded by classic Northeast destinations: Delaware via the Cape May Lewes Ferry (about 85 minutes across the bay), Philadelphia (95 miles), Washington DC (190 miles), and the Outer Banks (about 300 miles). Travel into Canada may be allowed depending on the specific host and insurance terms, so message before booking if that's your plan. Travel to Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals. Pro tip: confirm cross-state travel and any ferry size restrictions with your host upfront, the Cape May Lewes Ferry accommodates most RVs but charges by length, so check dimensions before you roll up.
cmlf.com/What should I budget for fuel on a Cape May RV trip?
Fuel is one of the easier line items to plan here. New Jersey gas prices typically sit close to the national average, and as a bonus, attendants pump it for you, it's the only U.S. state where self-service at most stations isn't allowed. Class B campervans get around 18 to 22 mpg, Class C motorhomes average 10 to 14 mpg, and larger Class A rigs run 7 to 10 mpg. For a typical 4-night Cape May Court House RV trip with 300 miles of driving, budget roughly $80 to $200 in fuel depending on rig size. Pro tip: fill up off-island at stations along Route 9 in Rio Grande or Marmora before heading into Cape May, prices tend to be lower than at the southern tip.
nj.gov/mvc/vehicles/fuel.htmHow far ahead should I book a campground near Cape May Court House?
Earlier is better, Cape May is one of the most popular shore destinations in New Jersey. For summer weekends in July and August, book 4 to 6 months ahead at private parks like Seashore Campsites and Beachcomber Camping Resort. Belleplain State Forest reservations open through the New Jersey State Park Service reservation system and fill quickly for holiday weekends. Shoulder-season trips in May or September often have availability just a few weeks out. Pro tip: if your dream campground is full, ask your host about RV delivery to a friend's driveway or a less-known county park, sometimes the most relaxing spot isn't the busiest one, and you'll still be 15 minutes from the beach.
newjerseystateparks.reserveamerica.com/What are local driving conditions like around Cape May Court House?
Driving here is mostly relaxed and RV-friendly. The Garden State Parkway runs right through Cape May County with wide lanes and clearly marked exits, though Friday and Sunday summer traffic can crawl. Route 9 and Route 47 are great alternates, watch for low clearances near some shore towns. Avoid Sunset Boulevard's narrow stretches near Cape May Point if you're in a Class A. The terrain is flat coastal plain, so no mountain driving worries. Pro tip: cross the Garden State Parkway toll plazas before 10 a.m. or after 7 p.m. on summer Saturdays to skip the worst beach traffic and roll into your campground stress-free.
njta.com/What amenities do campgrounds near Cape May Court House offer?
You'll find full-service campgrounds throughout Cape May County. Most private parks like Seashore Campsites, Beachcomber, and Avalon Campground offer 30 and 50 amp electric, fresh water hookups, sewer at premium sites, pools, laundry, and Wi-Fi. Belleplain State Forest provides electric and water at many sites with a centralized dump station. Public dump stations are also available at Cape May County Park & Zoo and several marinas in the area. Pro tip: top off your fresh water tank at the campground before any day trips, water spigots along Cape May's beach roads are limited, and you'll want that supply for outdoor showers after a day at Sunset Beach hunting Cape May diamonds.
capemaycountynj.gov/199/Park-ZooWhat features and amenities come with RVs in Cape May Court House?

Pro tip: filter by sleeps count and check the listing photos for outdoor kitchens and beach gear add-ons, perfect for a family RV trip Cape May Court House where you'll spend most of your day between the dunes and the campsite.
capemaycountynj.gov/635/TourismWhat add-ons and pickup options should I know about?
Hosts make it easy to customize your trip. Popular add-ons on Cape May Court House listings include linens and towel packages ($25 to $75), kitchen kits, beach chairs and umbrellas, bikes, generators ($15 to $30 per day), and propane refills. Pickup is usually at the host's location in Cape May Court House, Rio Grande, or surrounding towns, with delivery available to most regional campgrounds for a flat fee. Mileage policies vary, so read the listing carefully or message the host. Pro tip: bundle delivery, setup, and a linens package on your first trip, you'll arrive to a fully made-up rig with the awning out and skip the moving-day chaos so you can head straight to Sunset Beach for the flag-lowering ceremony.
capemaycountynj.gov/635/TourismHow does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and secure through RVezy. You'll pay the rental total, taxes, any add-ons, and a refundable security deposit through the platform when you book, no cash or off-platform transfers needed. The security deposit is held separately from your booking payment, set by the host, and typically ranges from $500 to $1,500. It's released after your trip ends, assuming no damage or policy issues. Pro tip: take a quick video walkaround of the RV with your host at pickup and again at drop-off, this two-minute habit protects everyone and helps your deposit return quickly after your Cape May Court House getaway wraps up.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksWhat are the best road trip destinations from Cape May Court House?
You're perfectly positioned for a Northeast adventure. From Cape May Court House, popular routes include Ocean City and Atlantic City (25 to 45 miles north for boardwalks and casinos), Philadelphia (95 miles for history and cheesesteaks), the Pine Barrens via Belleplain and Wharton State Forests (30 to 60 miles for quiet pine forest camping), Lewes and Rehoboth Beach Delaware (via the 85-minute Cape May–Lewes Ferry), and Assateague Island National Seashore (about 120 miles south for wild horses on the beach). Pro tip: a 5- to 7-day loop from Cape May Court House through Lewes, Assateague, and back up through Ocean City Maryland is one of the most underrated RV road trips on the East Coast, easy driving, great beaches, and no mountain passes.
