A Secluded Retreat to Get Back to Nature

Wading Pines is a wooded, secluded retreat where guests come to slow down and escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Our campground is built around simple pleasures: quiet mornings under the pines, afternoons on the water, and evenings by the fire.
We welcome families, couples, and groups who enjoy outdoor recreation and a friendly campground atmosphere. If you’re looking for luxury resort services or late-night party energy, we may not be the best match—but if you value nature, community, and classic camping, you’ll feel right at home here.

Ways to Stay at Wading Pines

Two large RVs and several canopies are set up among tall pine trees in a wooded campground on a sunny day.

RV Sites

Choose wooded back-in or pull-through sites, including options near the river and pond. It’s classic RV camping in the Pine Barrens, with easy access to amenities and activities.
