Bass River State Park, Tuckerton, NJ
June 5th-7th. Weekend getaway without the kids. Geocachers paradise. Hiked 5 miles and found 10 caches. We could not find 2 caches in the water while kayaking. We enjoyed this very layed back weekend. Sites are primitive but extremely spacious. No water or electric. Two sections of camping divide the park. We stayed in the south shore camping area that tends to have larger sites to accommodate our pop-up. We ate in the nearby town of Tukertown at a pub called The Pour House. Good food and inexpensive. We rented kayaks at the park for $15 per hour. There is a small beach and lake swimming. We enjoyed our first camping trip without children and if you don't mind primitive camping I would recommend Bass River. The only hiccup we had was the bathrooms directly behind us were not working so we had to walk a little bit to the next. If we had our children with us this would have been a far worse situation.
Tip: Bring lots of water since water sources are scattered throughout and the campground and not easy to find.
Happy Camping,
The Stefanelli Family
