Campgrounds near Cologne, New Jersey
Cologne is an unincorporated community in Galloway Township, Atlantic County, in the heart of southern New Jersey's Pine Barrens. It sits roughly ten miles inland from Atlantic City, placing RV travelers within short drives of the boardwalk, Brigantine Beach, and Ocean City while still keeping them in quieter, wooded surroundings.
The area's private RV parks concentrate along the corridors leading toward the shore. Pomona RV Park and Campground and Shady Pines sit closest to Cologne, with Holly Acres Campground a few miles west and Atlantic City Blueberry Hill RV Park Morgan RV Resorts and Egg Harbor City Lake and Campground within about six miles. Together they cover most full-hookup and family-camping needs for the area.
Beyond the private parks, the region borders Wharton State Forest, the largest tract in the New Jersey state park system, along with Bass River and Brendan T. Byrne State Forests. Together these give RV renters an unusual mix: a Jersey Shore vacation base within reach of casinos and beaches, and a protected Pinelands wilderness for hiking, paddling, and quieter overnights.
Things to do near Cologne
The Atlantic City casinos and boardwalk are roughly a ten-minute drive east, with easy access to championship public golf courses, fishing, boating, shopping, and the beaches at Atlantic City, Brigantine, and Ocean City. Families based at Pomona RV Park and Campground or Shady Pines MH and RV Resort can reach all of these within half an hour.
Inland, Wharton State Forest offers miles of marked hiking trails, sand roads open to mountain bikes and horses, and Batsto Village, a preserved nineteenth-century ironworks settlement. The Batona Trail runs roughly 50 miles through Wharton, Bass River, and Brendan T. Byrne State Forests. Paddlers can canoe or kayak the Mullica, Wading, and Batsto Rivers, and Atsion Lake at Wharton has a guarded swimming beach in summer.

Most private campgrounds in the Cologne area run a seasonal schedule. Pomona RV Park and Campground, for example, operates from mid-April through the end of October, and several neighboring parks follow a similar April to early November window. Peak demand runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day, when shore traffic, beach crowds, and weekend bookings all hit their high point.
Late spring and early fall are the sweet spot for RV renters who want mild weather without the summer crush. Days are warm, humidity drops, and state forest campgrounds in the Pinelands are quieter. September and October also bring cooler nights ideal for campfires, though the Atlantic hurricane season peaks in this window and can occasionally disrupt coastal plans.
Winter is the off-season. Snowfall is lighter than in northern New Jersey, but most private RV parks are closed. A few state forest sites, such as Atsion in Wharton State Forest, remain open all year, with tent and trailer sites limited to 22 feet and only basic services.

We had a great experience with RV Cozy Camper. The camper truly lived up to its name — it was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, making our trip relaxing and enjoyable. Everything we needed was thoughtfully provided, and the layout made the space feel welcoming and functional. It was easy to tow and set up, which helped take a lot of stress out of the trip. The attention to detail really showed and made us feel comfortable right away. Communication was smooth and helpful, and any questions we had were answered promptly. Overall, this was a wonderful experience, and we would absolutely recommend RV Cozy Camper to anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable camping option. We would happily use RV Cozy Camper again for future trips!

How to book campgrounds near Cologne
Private parks in the Cologne area, including Pomona RV Park and Campground, Holly Acres Campground, Shady Pines MH and RV Resort, and Atlantic City Blueberry Hill RV Park Morgan RV Resorts, take reservations directly through their own websites or by phone. Summer weekends, holiday weeks, and major Atlantic City events fill first, so booking several months out is standard for July and August stays.
State forest campgrounds in Wharton, Bass River, and Brendan T. Byrne are reserved online at camping.nj.gov through the New Jersey State Park Service reservation system. Reservations can be booked up to 11 months in advance of the check-in date. Note that Atsion and other Wharton campsites cap tent and trailer length at 22 feet, so larger rigs should plan on private parks with full hookups instead.
What to expect on the ground
Private RV parks near Cologne are set among pines on flat, sandy terrain typical of the Pinelands. Pomona RV Park and Campground offers sites with a 5-way hookup (water, electric, sewer, cable, and Wi-Fi), most with a cement pad and 50 amp service, pull-through sites, a heated swimming pool, planned activities, a game room, and camp store. Most local parks accept big rigs, with 30 and 50-amp service and pull-through sites available.
State forest camping is a very different experience. Sites at Atsion have fire rings and picnic tables, with potable water, flush toilets, and showers within walking distance, and no hookups. Cell reception can be patchy deep in Wharton, and biting insects, ticks, and mosquitoes are common from late spring through early fall, so bring repellent and check for ticks after hikes.
