It serves as an ideal base for exploring the historic charm of Victorian Cape May or the world-famous Wildwood Boardwalk, both of which are just a short drive away.

What is worth choosing when it comes to Thousand Trails Sea Pines is the incredible value and variety it offers to the local camping community. It is worth choosing for the family who wants a "one-stop" destination where kids can move from the pool to the playground while parents relax by the lake. For RV owners, the availability of 50-amp hookups and the "Solar RV Storage" facilities make it a highly practical choice for long-term stays. It is especially worth choosing for those who want to experience the beauty of Cape May County without the high costs of beachfront hotels. By staying at Sea Pines, you get the best of both worlds: a quiet, wooded retreat at night and easy access to the excitement of the Atlantic City casinos and the Wildwood Boardwalk by day.
Furthermore, the personal touches provided by the staff often make a significant difference in a guest's stay. From helping with late check-ins to organizing community tournaments, the management strives to foster a "Sea Pines Family" atmosphere. While the wooded nature of the park means you should be prepared for a rustic environment with plenty of trees and sand, the trade-off is a genuine connection to nature that is hard to find elsewhere. If you are looking for a place where you can unwind, explore the coast, and create lasting memories with your family, Thousand Trails Sea Pines is a top recommendation for your next New Jersey getaway.
In summary, Thousand Trails Sea Pines provides a high-quality camping experience that captures the unique charm of southern New Jersey.

I have very mixed feelings about this place. I'm a solo young female traveler so I can be a bit picky. The roads are horrendous, no point in having speed bumps when you have a gazillion potholes. Haven't checked out the lake but there is a very nice bike path to walk your dogs behind the campground (it's public). Hazel at the front desk was amazing and helped me extend my stay. And security was great when my neighbors woke me up at 1am. The trees need trimmed I'm scared to look at my roof after hearing huge branches fall on my RV. I'm not sure why they are spending so much on their storage area when the rest of the campground is in despair. I'm not sure who is in charge of cleaning the restrooms but they need to find a new job. They are disgusting. I had to usher a bird out of the bathhouse #2 because they leave the doors open to ventilate because the drainage sucks. I love the area and the staff but the campground itself need A LOT of help. I personally will not be returning unless I need to.
Sea Pines is truly our happy place. My wife and I come here to unwind and escape the fast pace of city life. The atmosphere is peaceful, serene, and beautifully nestled among the trees. We especially enjoy the lake and pool, and the easy access to the nearby bike trail is a major plus. The beach and boardwalk are just minutes away, making it easy to enjoy the best of the area. The staff are consistently helpful and friendly, contributing to the welcoming environment. We have a seasonal site here and plan to return for many years to come. We highly recommend Sea Pines as a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.
This is a really nice and peaceful for the most part campground. I have noticed the more rowdy and in my opinion inconsiderate campers are the seasonal ones. Holding large gatherings and basically acting like they are back in their house neighborhoods. Hey to each their own. Just not my idea of enjoying outdoors. Very large campground. The best camp store I've been to so far. Clean showers. Definitely a return to campground.
First off I'll preface this with saying, the campground is in a good location. The roads are in terrible condition and not paved, just sand, potholes as big as a small car. When it rains the potholes fill with water. The area has poor drainage, but the campground should be grading and filling the holes with at least gravel. Don't try to use the camp store or game room ( clubhouse) after Labor Day. The pool closes one week after Labor Day. The front guard shack has very nice staff. The permanent seasonal residents seem very friendly to transient guests. Most seasonal sites appear clean and maintained. There are few sites with sewer apparently. Yet I observed many empty sewer sites. I asked on the phone if we could get a sewer site. My reservation through the Thousand Trails membship only had non sewer sites, but the representative told me to request a sewer site upon arrival or phone ( the day of check in) so I did. I had to call 5x to get an office staff on the line. The after hours number is incorrect. The office staff ( Hazel) was super unprofessional. She was also rude and condescending in person. I'm not sure why we were treated poorly. I was only asking if a sewer site was available at check in. Hazel stated that the sites are assigned by Thousands Trails and cannot be changed. I know that this is not true, because many times at other corporate parks, we've been upgraded to a sewer site easily. Her customer service portrayed the park in a negative way. The other office staff ( a lady) was more helpful. That staff suggested I check back daily for a sewer site.There is no need to treat guests unkind. I was just following protocol from Corporate Thousand Trails. They only have a pump out truck once a week after Labor Day. The Thousand Trails sales representative was very cordial and knowledgeable. Our site lost water after being there 5 days. There was trash on our site when we arrived. I will not return to this campground. The sewage dump station at the front of the park was out of order. That left only 1 dump station available at the front. The campground needs to address these issues. This is just my personal experience. I've traveled in Thousand Trails campgrounds for 5 years and have never been treated this poorly. I hope that no other guests are treated in this manner. Kindness matters.
We rented a “deluxe” cabin here for a week. The AC units were not working and it turned out to be the hottest week of the year and HUMID. When I went to office to say something they knew what cabin we were in before I said it and then they brought us some barely functioning portable AC units. We couldn’t even run them at the same time as a fan because it kept blowing a fuse. So we had to limit them to only being run in the bedrooms during the night. There was also no hot water and absolutely no water pressure, good luck getting shampoo out of your hair.The potholes are insane, I couldn’t imagine pulling a trailer through here, you could definitely break something. The planned kids activities were bare minimum and didn’t have locations for them. Sure, the store has everything, but at 3x the price. Better off running down to the ACME 2 min away.The location is great but that being said there are several campgrounds on this stretch of road, stay somewhere else and get your moneys worth.I could’ve paid half the price for a tent site and been better off than stuck in the hot box of a cabin with no AC on a week were it was 100+ with humidity in the 80% range.
