My husband, pitbull pup and I stumbled upon Bass River State Forest last year and have already made it an annual must! The sites are both beautiful and quiet and you're only steps to hiking and the water. 

South Shore Campground

Inundated by the area’s sixty-seven-acre Lake Absegami, soundtracked by the lake’s reproductive waterfowl, Bass River State Forest is a biotic gem amongst the state’s outlining smoke stacks

Bass River is an annual spot for my husband, pup and I. Both North + South shores are beautiful but you'll be on south with a pooch. 

Bass River Group Area

The Jersey Shore’s great and all, don’t get us wrong

Bass River Cabins

Perfumed by the crisp, cool air of Lake Absegami, Bass River State’s Shelters are all comely located within a wave-crashing echo of the area’s namesake attraction

North Shore Campground

Littered with just as much leaf litter as historical landmarks, Bass River State Forest was the first patch of forest acquired by the colonial state in the early-1900’s

Going for a swim in this paradise was amazing!

The North Shore of the park is great for groups or those who don't want to rough-it too much... Check out the shelter in the background: 4 beds, wood stove, table. Perfect! 

Brendan T. Byrne Campground

This campground is perfumed by the aroma of falling pine needles, backdropped by miles of leaf littered trails
