Ocean Lakes Family Campground

Well first off we arrived and the grass or what was left of it was over a foot high. Secondly the site was littered with cigarette butts and other debris. The times we were told the water park would be open were not correct. Water park and slides were not open till late afternoon. Then my son got a ticket for vulgar music with the security guard couldn’t tell me what was said. And this was happening while the other security guard was telling them all how she liked the golf cart and how it was decorated. Then when asked to be able to view the body cam footage to hear what was said I was denied. So I requested to speak with a supervisor. I was told to go to my site and one would come. On our way back to our site another golf cart was playing music that cursed and another security officer told him to turn it down, so much for zero tolerance. Security came to my site and I explained to him that I wanted to see the body camera video that would depict the vulgar language from the music that was being played. The security guard right away got an attitude with me and told me if I wasn’t going to pay the ticket I would be trespassed. I explained to the security that normally in america there’s a process and you get a chance to prove your innocence before being convicted. I guess at ocean lakes the security is the judge jury and prosecution. He then told me I was going to be trespassed and he would put me in hand cuffs and I was past the 30 min allotted to pay the ticket even though he didn’t show up till 40 min later.A couple of my friends sent me away to speak to the officer. While he then told them that he would taze me. Another female officer came she was vey very calm and should be commended for her demeanor rather then the first security guard. Ultimately the ticket was paid. And nothing else was done. Ocean lakes now seems to be more of a money making scheme then anything. It’s not bad enough the make over 100k a day in just camping sites. Now they are basically strong arming people to pay a 100 dollars or your trespassed. The week we were there will be our last, as well as the friends we were with. Ocean lakes will loose several families this week from ever coming back. However I really feel that it doesn’t matter to ocean lakes cause they know there will be others right behind us.

The good, great beach and they have amenities for everyone. The bad, very crowded, especially the part of the campground away from the beach. Tight roads, trees, golf carts, vehicles parked along the road. Very difficult to navigate a motor home or fifth wheel. Also the roads are over run with golf carts. Not a good place for dog owners

This place was absolutely everything we wanted and more.
Best time to go is after Labor Day. It was quiet, everyone was super friendly and lots of dog owners! The nature center was perfect for a homeschool field trip with the kids. We enjoyed the included water park and felt like it was well worth the $65 a night to camp. Showers were super clean, beach was clean, staff was friendly and intentional. Everyone we met felt like old friends. Wi-Fi at the campsite was excellent, cell service was good. Arcade was updated and full of exciting games. We stayed in the 3000 section on a dirt lot and it was close to the ocean. We already booked 2 weeks on concrete pad for next year! The sandy mart was great for snacks and supplies. Fair prices. Plan to bring or rent a golf cart ;) campground location is directly across the street from Walmart for groceries. Love this place and can’t wait to return!!
con: our site seemed to have lots of flies even with not leaving food out.

Although the experience with the staff at Ocean Lakes could have completely ruined our vacation, we chose to enjoy our family time regardless. We purchased a child’s football and float in THEIR store, only to be told we could not use it at their pool. Then they told us we couldn’t have coolers at the pool. Coolers that had waters and snacks for our little ones, because the concession stand wasn’t open for us to purchase the items from them. All of this and more was handled very unprofessionally. The icing on the cake was our last night, when they had a golf cart parade right in front of the beach house we had rented - going until 11:00 pm with VERY loud music, singing, and shouting. We had little ones trying to sleep. We have stayed at several other campgrounds in the area and absolutely loved our many stays at those. We were always made to feel welcome, and could relax and enjoy our vacation as opposed to our stay with Ocean Lakes where we were constantly looking over our shoulders expecting to be talked down to for the next supposed infraction. We were told, “Well, Ocean Lakes isn’t for everyone”. On this we can agree. This was our first and last stay at Ocean Lakes.

We had a pull-through site right by the beach - that's the bonus. Just walk out the door, across the road and there was the beach and Atlantic Ocean. Site was somewhat level. Utilities worked good, had a few times where the water pressure stopped but only for a few seconds. Good wifi, good cable. Site was not quite long enough for truck and trailer, we had to ask the people in front to move some stuff so we could pull in and unhitch, same when we unhitched. There are a lot of amenities but during winter most of them were not open. HUGE Laundry facility, the size of a large laundromat so never had to wait for a machine. Cost was $2.75 per wash. They did have large load machines (like a laundromat) took advantage of them and washed our large blankets - cost $5.75. Dog friendly park. This park operates like a small city. LOVED the park during the quiet season, I personally, would not want to be there when it is full, it would be too crowded. The roads are narrow (they call them alleys), luckily we had an end site so pulling out was easy, but many of our neighbors had to hitch up almost sideways. This park is known for its great customer service and we found the staff pleasant and helpful. They have a mail room to receive packages but it is a $1.00 per package to pick up. Spent most of our time walking the beach. We camped at Ocean Lakes Family Campground in a Travel Trailer.

This is by far the best campsite I’ve ever been to. Well maintained lots on concrete pads. Free wifi, with a VERY strong signal, plus premium plans if you need that faster speed at reasonable prices ($4.99 & $9.99) respectively. Had 5G Ultra Capacity while here and fast speeds as well. Cable tv and our site even had a brand new coax to connect to our rig. Clean hookups (30 & 50 amps) on every site, plus enough space for an extra tent if you need the space. The whole campsite is beachfront. There’s bike and golf cart rentals to get around, food, a pool with water park style slides, large convenience store, rv dealer with maintenance, and an arcade all in the premises.

This is by far the best and my most favorite RV campground I’ve been to date and I plan to come many more times.

First time staying here in the camper. I grew up coming here with my grandmother that lived on Snapper Lane. It has changed a lot to the good. Very busy but they have quite hours (11 pm to 7 pm) and people listen. The Halloweekends in October are very fun, the most trick-or-treaters I have seen in a long time. We had great shade at both locations. K34 had less traffic then 3168. You basically have it all here and do not need to leave if you don't want to.
