Jersey shore

Planning for summer of 2015 already. Our kids will be 12, 10, and 6 and like all of the typical kid stuff, beaches, rides, games, etc. We're looking for FHU with close proximity to attractions.

Ideally, I am looking for a campground that is close to (or on if possible) the beach, a fun kid friendly boardwalk, and near Philly (we want to head out there for one day).
Not sure what boardwalk is the best. Does it matter? Are they all the same? We don't want to be with the drunk college students but we don't have toddlers anymore either and the kids like action.
Suggestions for campgrounds with pools and water slides will be appreciated.

Thoughts?
Thanks.
  • Frontiertown in Ocean City, Maryland is where you want to go. Fun for kids and Mom and Dad. It's about 2 1/2 hours south of Philly. Plenty to do at the campgound and Ocean City boardwalk is one of the best in the country. Disney duplicated it in Orlando and one of their attractions.
  • Try Holly Shores. Midway between Wildwood (Boardwalk, amusments for kids, HUGE beaches, etc) and Cape May.
