Shady Brook Park — Attraction in Bloomingdale Township

Honestly for what this is you can’t ask for much more. This park has 4 camping sites tucked away on the tree line. We were fortunate enough to get the corner site and it was lovely for the night. No hook ups or utilities but there is a fire ring and picnic table for each site. It’s free to camp here and I was impressed with the cleanliness.
