Jenny Jump State Forest — Attraction in Frelinghuysen Township

I live super super close to here and have only done a day trip when I was younger so this is my first time spending overnights, and it's been amazingly great thus far!!!! We started at another campground but we're treated very poorly so we came here... And let me say we should have been here from the beginning!! The staff and rangers that we have delt with/seen have been kind and helpful!! Plus u really get that "camping experience" bc ur in the woods and it's not over crowded where ur on top of other canpers!(like DRFC, TERRIBLE PLACE STAY AWAY!) Showers r free, hot, clean (Ok spiders, webs and maybe a tree frog or 2) but hey ur in the woods!! Just be sure u put ALL ur food away or Yogi and Boo Boo will surely invade lol!! The pole in the campsite is NOT a bear feeder (Hey some just don't know!) It's for ur lantern. A+++++ for Jenny Jump State Campground, bring ur family and friends and...

Carry in , carry out primitive campsites and adorable cabin camping. Stayed here many times throughout my life so far and it's more like home than camping. I wouldn't recommend the hike in campsites unless you love hauling heavy stuff up a rocky trail (Think of lugging lots of firewood specifically. That was awful. But also secluded) Campsites have a fire ring, picnic table, and tall metal pole with hook for hanging a lantern? Water container? Garbage bag? Whatever its true purpose is we always find a use for it. Down side of campsites is most of them are sandy clay dirt and it gets dusty or muddy depending on the weather. Cabins are quite adorable with double bunk beds and table and bench inside. Woodstove for warmth and enough room to throw an air mattress on the floor if you move the table against the wall. They also have porches so you can sit outside even if the weather's bad....

This was the single most disgusting tenting experience I have ever had. We have tented in most of the states in this country and have never been more disappointed. Our site was muddy to the point where we had to set up our tent in the driveway of the site. Our truck had to be parked along the road...too much wet mud. Under the drive to the site there was a gully, constructed to redirect rain water, but in our site there were 4 major rivulets emptying into the gully. The sound of rushing water, both in our site and the gully was more than we could take and we packed up at 3 a.m. The toilets in the bath house were chemical ones. There was a shower, but no water in it. We chose not to stay our second night. If there was a no star category, I would...
