Bocce Ball

Bocce Ball is a popular sport with all ages, played on lawns and beaches everywhere. While we don’t have a formal court, guests are still invited to pick-up gear at the Information Center to use at their site!

Cornhole

Whether you call it cornhole, backyard toss, baggo, bags, corn toss, or hillbilly horseshoes, this game is addicting! There are a lot of different claims about the origin of it, which might account for all the different names. Of course, whatever you like to call it, you’ll enjoy playing on our three manicured courts.

Disc Golf

Disc Golf is a competitive sport growing in popularity and now you can play right here at Lakewood Camping Resort! Not familiar with this one? It’s similar to golf, but instead of using a putter to hit a ball into a hole, you throw a disc into a basket. The sport was formalized in the 1970s. Growing in popularity, the sport currently has a professional association that sanctions competitive events worldwide. Right now, you can find four Disc Golf baskets on Buccaneer Island, located on the north end of the resort near the inlet. A $25 cash security deposit is required to check-out discs. Your cash will be refunded once discs are returned. Guests are also welcome to use their own discs!

Pickleball

Opa! You’ve been served a new amenity. Guests are invited to give Pickleball a shot during their visit! Pickleball is a racket or paddle sport, similar to tennis, played with a two or four players. Players hit a perforated, hollow plastic ball with the paddles over a net until one side is unable to return the ball.

The Pickleball Court is located along Ocean Boulevard in between Volleyball and Shuffleboard.

Guests can use their own equipment of choice or visit the Information Center to borrow a set of rackets & a ball.

The court is open for play daily from 7 a.m. – 11 p.m.

While guests aren’t currently required to reserved a time to play, we do ask guests be mindful of others and limit play to 1 hour at a time. We want all guests to enjoy this new, highly coveted attraction! We know it’s sure to be a smash-hit!

Shuffleboard

Original Shuffleboard is actually played on a shuffleboard table, and originally used coins. It dates back to 15th century England, and often involved gambling in pubs. It was extremely popular during the Civil War here in the states, but really had it’s heyday during the 1950’s and ’60’s. Our version is the very popular Deck Shuffleboard which is a very large “Floor” version and uses Cues to push the weighted disk down the court. Our two regulation, professional courts sit right up against the dunes, and are a favorite game among all of our guests.

The Beach
