Part of New Jersey's Pine Barrens coastal plain, Wharton State Forest is a utopia for outdoor enthusiasts. It occupies an enormous 120,000-acre footprint, making it the largest single stretch of land in the New Jersey State Parks system. There are endless ways to enjoy the park, whether you're working up a sweat on hiking trails, exploring scenic paddling routes, or roasting s'mores around the fire pit back at your RV campsite. There's also a dash of history thrown in, with Batsto Village offering a glimpse of the park's former status as an iron and glassmaking hub.

Ashley and Aaron were incredible hosts! They arrived before I did and took care of everything, from delivering and setting up the camper to choosing the perfect spot. The camper itself is fantastic, equipped with all the amenities I could want. It’s clean, spacious, and warm. I highly recommend the camper, but even more so Ashley and Aaron. They communicated effectively throughout the rental process and went above and beyond to ensure a wonderful experience.

Renting from Phill was great experience. He was able to answer all of our questions via text or phone call. He even made us a video with extra details and instructions for using the RV. The RV we rented was beautiful and clean and had all the equipment in it. Phil even provided soap, napkins, toilet paper and dish-ware. This made our vacation easier I feel so thankful for the extra supplies. Overall we had an amazing experience! I highly recommend that you rent from Phill for all your RV needs.
