Great park with well-maintained trails. The picture is from the Culver Fire Tower. We stayed at Shotwell Campground overnight - nice big, secluded tent site with a site-specific bathroom. Would definitely stay again. And the staff at the park office were very helpful with trail recommendations and directions!

Stokes State Forest is an absolute gem in New Jersey! My family and I spent a weekend camping here, and it exceeded all our expectations. The campsites are spacious and secluded, with bear-proof bins and fire rings that made us feel safe and prepared. We hiked several trails, including the stunning Silver Mine Loop and the path to Sunrise Mountain, where the views at dawn were breathtaking—rolling hills, vibrant forests, and crystal-clear skies. The markers and maps are incredibly helpful, making navigation a breeze even for beginners. Stony Lake was a highlight for swimming and relaxing; the water is pristine, and the nearby playground kept the kids entertained for hours. Facilities are spotless, with clean bathrooms, picnic pavilions, and even a concession stand for snacks. Whether you're into fishing, birdwatching, or just unwinding in nature, Stokes has it all. We've already planned our next trip—five stars without a doubt!

I love this place! It has so many unique trails, and it is quiet and peaceful. The Sunrise Mountain trail was epic, and the pavilion was well built. The sheer cliffs make this place truly spectacular.
