Campground lodging on the edge of New Jersey's Newfoundland wilderness, minutes from Terrace Pond.
Blakely Lane dead-ends at the kind of quiet that city people drive two hours to find. Lake and Shore sits right at that edge, a campground where the tree line meets the water and the only agenda is yours. The air here smells like pine resin and lake mist, and by evening the loons are louder than any notification you forgot to silence.
This is Newfoundland, NJ, deep in the Highlands, where the Pequannock Watershed stretches across the ridge. Guests come for a single night and rebook for a week once they realize how quickly the pace changes out here. A morning paddle, a fire after dark, a trail that climbs above the lake and shows you exactly why this corner of Morris County gets overlooked by the crowds.
The property keeps things honest: real outdoor living with enough comfort to make it accessible. You're not roughing it unnecessarily, but you're not insulated from the woods either. That balance is the whole point.
Tent and RV sites line up along the shoreline so you wake up to water, not a parking lot. Each site comes with fire ring and picnic table, and hookup options are available for those who want power without sacrificing the setting.
Lodging options step it up for guests who want a roof overhead. Cabin accommodations give you the full lake-and-forest experience without packing a tent pole. The location puts you within easy reach of hiking into the Wawayanda State Park corridor and the swimming holes that locals have kept off the main travel sites.
On-site, you'll find clean restroom and shower facilities, a boat launch, and enough open shoreline to actually spread out. Group reservations are welcome for family reunions or outdoor retreats that need space to breathe.
The property offers tent camping sites, RV sites with hookup options, and cabin lodging. All site types have access to the lake and shared facilities.
Yes, the property has shoreline access for swimming. Guests are responsible for their own safety as lifeguards are not on duty. The lake is also suitable for kayaking and fishing.
The campground is located off Route 23 in Newfoundland, NJ, making it roughly 50 miles from New York City and easily accessible from I-287 and Route 23 north.

The Bearfort Ridge and Terrace Pond trails are within a short drive. The Pequannock Watershed also offers miles of less-trafficked forest paths accessible from the Newfoundland area.
