A fire at Sun Retreat RV Park in Barnegat, New Jersey, destroyed five RVs on Saturday, June 20, 2026. The fire was reported at 11:19 a.m. and quickly engulfed two RVs before spreading. Firefighters contained the blaze by 2:00–2:30 p.m., with no injuries reported.

Two additional RVs sustained damage. Thanks to the combined efforts of multiple fire departments and the state Forest Service, the fire was prevented from spreading to nearby vehicles and woods. The cause is under investigation, but arson is not suspected.

Affected families, many of whom had rented sites for the entire summer season, lost personal belongings and structures. A fundraiser has been organized to replace the RVs and household items.
