Pine Cone Campgrounds

Awesome Campground. Well maintained and very professional staff!

I stayed in one of the cabins for a week, and rented a tent site for just one night. I found the staff to be very kind and helpful, and made our stay a really good one. The pool was very, very clean as were the bathrooms and laundry rooms.
The grounds were immaculate, and I always saw people going around doing landscaping, etc.
I would only make a few suggestions:
While the cabin prices were fair, I did think that $ 46 was a little steep for the tent site, but it is close to the Jersey Shore, so most are like that.
It would be great if they added a few garbage cans near the pool/​playground area as well as maybe towards the back of the resort.
The laundry was a little pricey, but there are other local options not far away. It is convenient to have it there if you need it though.
All in all, for the area, it’s really the best option in my opinion. We will definitely be back!

See other reviews before camping here. Note that almost all of them mention the rude
owner, totally true, along with her equally blonde friend who runs the front desk, when the store is open, is equally as rude. Obviously they don’t read their reviews, or more than likely just don’t care. The store, as others mentioned as well, is very rarely open on time. The washer/​dryers as others mentioned as well, are very expensive and the machines are old and don’t work well. The seasonal campers that have been there for years, some as long as 15 years are all leaving in droves since Arnie no longers runs the business, his wife does and she is extremely nasty, rude, and obtuse. We were seasonal campers as well for 4 years, turned our small site into a premium site and made many upgrades, yet, after they rented our seasonal site out to FEMA employees over the winter, they left their garbage in our site and the owner attempted to blame us for that. Clearly we weren’t even there over the winter. We cleaned up the winter tenants garbage after they used our site and because we could not return this summer only, due to personal issues, and made it clear that we wanted to come back next year, the owner turned vicious, blamed us for bottles and garbage her winter tenants left, and kept our deposit, even though she brags how ‘people are waiting in line for my sites’. Way to go to run a business, to alienate your good, long time seasonal campers who did nothing but go out of their way to help, when they needed it… We tried to keep it amicable so we could return however we will not come back as we are tired as well of the rude, nasty behavior and will no longer overlook it. The electrical service is sub-​par, we fixed our own electric service for them, we fixed the owners electrical service at their personal camper, as well. And still, we got in return her nasty attitude and lies. The electric is not adequate, in the summer time, you may not be able to run your AC, as we had issues with for 2 years until WE fixed it by digging a 200 foot trench and running new electrical lines for them„ but they’ll tell you that the power company ‘turned down the electric service’, or ‘they’re full and eveyone’s using electric’. What good is having electric and AC if you can’t use it when you need it in the summer because they refuse to fix it? Just excuses for not wanting to spend money to ensure you can have electric you pay for, and use it in the summer months when needed. Go there on a holiday weekend and see if you can run your A/​C, probably not… There are no activities here, no amenities other than a pool and a tennis court. The store’s posted hours are hardly ever adhered to, you can’t get something you may need until someone decides to show up. There is no garbage pickup, you have to dump your own garbage. Unless you like rude people who don’t care, go somewhere else.
