Best RV Parks & Resorts near Cornwall Bridge, CT

Several RV parks within 25 miles of Cornwall Bridge provide accommodations for motorhome travelers throughout much of the year. Copake Camping Resort, located northeast in West Copake, NY, offers full hookup sites with 50-amp service from May to mid-October. Interlake RV Park & Campground in Rhinebeck features big-rig friendly sites with water, electric, and sewer connections, operating from April through October. Cozy Hills Campground in Bantam, CT maintains 178 sites with both 30 and 50-amp electrical service, accommodating larger RVs from mid-April to mid-October. Sites at many parks are positioned relatively close together with limited privacy between neighbors. "This place isn't a camp ground it's a parking lot for RVs. I've seen more separation between campers on RV dealer lots."

Pull-through sites are available at select campgrounds, though many locations feature back-in spots that require careful maneuvering. Road access to campgrounds varies significantly across the region, with some parks featuring narrow interior roads that present challenges for larger motorhomes. Dump stations and sanitary services are provided at most established RV parks, though availability may be limited during shoulder seasons. Reservation requirements become particularly important during peak fall foliage periods when occupancy rates increase substantially. Most RV parks near Cornwall Bridge welcome pets but enforce leash requirements and may restrict certain breeds. According to one review, "They made the roads so narrow to squeeze in so many sites, it's almost impossible to navigate an rv through, even for experienced rvers." Utility connections are generally reliable, with most full hookup sites offering water, electric, and sewer, though Wi-Fi quality varies between locations.

    Black Rock State Park Campground

    A nice family friendly campground

    This is a nice family friendly campground that makes for easy trips. There are a variety of sites available, from open field sites to more wooded and private areas. The campground also has a lake for swimming,trails for hiking, and some nice quiet areas for fishing. Well maintained bathrooms, with available showers, are also spread throughout the grounds. Not pet friendly unfortunately.

    Jellystone Park Gardiner

    Chillaxing Getaway

    We stayed at Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Camp-Resort along the Walllkill River in Gardiner, NY, for a four-night chill-out vacation. We’re so glad we did! 

    Our site was called Riverfront Red Carpet. It was spacious, level, waterfront, and partially shaded thanks to some mature trees. Site#22 included a large concrete pad, picnic table, charcoal grill, and large fire ring. Everything was in great condition. It was nice having plenty of space to not be on top of our neighbors. We had full hookups with 50-amp electrical service- which all worked fine. 

    The entire park seemed to be well maintained and clean. There’s a small waterpark which seemed good for younger kids, an eatery, and ice cream shop. The camp store was well-stocked with food, camping supplies, and souvenirs. There is a game room and multiple bath houses(which we didn’t use). The park’s roadways are all paved and easy to navigate. Despite being nearly filled to capacity including tons of young children, the park was quiet each night with no noisy ‘bad campers.’ 

    We found our interactions with the staff to be helpful and attentive. We really appreciate friendly staff. 

    Overall, this was a great stay at a great RV park. I’d only mention two negatives, neither was a big deal. It took 45-minutes to check-in. In fairness, we arrived at check-in time(3:00 PM) on a Sunday. There were a dozen other RVs checking in at the same time and they just weren’t equipped for that. Also, our Verizon cell service was practically non-existent and the park’s wifi service was just as horrible. If we needed connectivity, this would have been a major problem. I reduced a star in my review simply because it’s 2021 and wifi has become an expectation. 

    We booked on campspot.com and paid$196 per night+$35 to lock our site+$2 booking fee less a 20% promo discount.

    Blue Mountain Campground

    Family friendly/ rocky tent campsite’s

    Located in the Catskills. This is a family friendly there’s bathrooms/showers playground, pool, potable water and a outdoor pavilion. Located near hiking in the Catskills and 15 mins to Woodstock.

    The tent site are very richly and uneven, it was very hard to pitch a tent. When it rains theres a horrible smell across the campground.

    New York City North-Newburgh KOA

    Good amenities and fun experience!

    Campsites Great campsites, wooded and cozy, though a little tight for longer rigs as our neighbors found out when they ran over a wooden post backing in. But spaced apart nicely with lots of vegetation between. Nice and level. Amenities Bathrooms are older and need of some repair but let me tell you I was very happy to see a normal shower head with real hot water! So no complaints here. Laundry facilities were clean and open 24/7 with reasonable prices 2.50/2.00 washer/dryer. And the dryers actually worked. Small dog park, communal spaces, and a camp store all made the place feel like a little village. They even have a wine store- cab sav was good. WiFi I work remotely and WiFi is always an issue. We have Starlink but in a wooded campsite, connecting is an issue but luckily their WiFi was great. Had no issues and could stream just fine. Halloween! We visited mid October and folks had sites decorated and the KOA has trick or treating and other activities every weekend in Oct. we were SO bummed to be leaving on a Friday and miss the festivities because it looked really fun. Would definitely go back. Also, staff was super nice.

    Jellystone Park Gardiner

    #bigfunfamily approved

    We threatened a Jellystone stop for years, and finally made it happen. Great place for kids and staff runs a great park. Its crowded, loud and in constant movement but as expected. Sites here are pretty spread out and it’s big rig friendly with some level concrete pads which is a huge bonus. Park is doing a great job with COVID in the common areas. Not our normal type spot but definitely worth it to break up our 2 month road trip. Safe travels all!

    North-South Lake Campground

    Beautiful grounds but…

    Gorgeous campgrounds, friendly staff, and spectacular facilities. Loved that trailheads are walking distance from the sites. But we felt very close to campers next to us, not a lot of shrubbery between sites to feel somewhat private. Fire pits are very nice but more catered to cooking instead of being able to sit around in a circle. Also, we picked a site hoping we’d have a nice view of the lake but it’s hard to see from the site and a good walk away. Overall, beautiful grounds but I’d take less facilities to have a more “woodsy” vibe but that’s just my preference!


Guide to Cornwall Bridge

Camping near Cornwall Bridge is situated in the northwestern Connecticut Litchfield Hills region, characterized by rolling forested landscapes with elevations between 500-1,000 feet. The area experiences distinct seasonal changes with vibrant fall foliage from mid-September through late October that draws significant visitor traffic to local campgrounds. Water sources for many sites include the Housatonic River watershed and various lakes that offer recreational opportunities during peak camping months of May through October.

What to do

Fishing access: Lake Taghkanic State Park provides well-stocked waters with largemouth bass. "There is plenty of fishing access from shore and you can rent a boat for the whole day to fish on the water," notes camper Rosie R., who mentioned catching "2 decent-sized largemouth bass" during her stay.

Hiking trails: Taconic State Park features multiple trail systems connecting camping areas with natural attractions. "There is a trailhead at the end of the campground that connects to the other trails in Taconic State Park," explains Katherine P., who appreciated the connectivity despite finding some trails "unmarked" during her exploration.

Swimming beaches: Many campgrounds maintain dedicated swimming areas that remain operational through different parts of the season. At Lake Taghkanic State Park, visitors appreciate the "great beach" that one reviewer described as "beautiful and clean" though can become "packed" during holiday weekends and requires additional fees for paddleboard or kayak use.

What campers like

Privacy variations: Site layouts differ substantially across area campgrounds, affecting visitor experience. At Clarence Fahnestock State Park, "Almost all of the sites offered privacy.... Even when the campground was full," according to ranger Shelly B., who recommended booking weekday visits when "you should be in luck" for better site availability and quieter conditions.

Platform tent sites: Several parks feature raised wooden platforms for tent setup that prove invaluable during wet weather. At Lake Taghkanic State Park, Seth K. found these "platforms kept us off the ground and were helpful in setting up appropriate tarp protection" when their group encountered rainy conditions.

Seasonal occupancy patterns: Most campgrounds display predictable visitor patterns that affect site availability and atmosphere. One camper at Thousand Trails Rondout Valley noted the campground "is pretty empty during the week and gets busy during the weekend," making weekday visits preferable for those seeking quieter environments.

What you should know

Bathroom maintenance: Facility upkeep varies significantly between locations and throughout the season. At Rudd Pond Area — Taconic State Park, a visitor reported uneven enforcement of COVID protocols where "They had signs asking people to wear masks in the bathroom building, but far fewer people were. I also didn't see the staff do any cleaning of the restrooms while we were there."

Site proximity challenges: Many campsites feature closer spacing than advertised online. At Rudd Pond, Katherine P. found that "the campsites are pretty close together, so if the campground is full, you are rather close to your neighbors" and noted it "still felt like a fairly noisy campground, even after quiet hours."

Seasonal timing considerations: Shoulder season visits offer less crowding but reduced services. A visitor to Clarence Fahnestock noted that while "the beach is closed after Labor Day to the public" it remains "open to people staying at the campsite" allowing for more exclusive access during early fall visits.

Tips for camping with families

Playground accessibility: Several campgrounds feature play equipment with varying levels of maintenance. Cozy Hills Campground maintains "a pool (that) is very nice for families - with no deep end, really safe for younger kids" according to Ann S., though she noted that "bathrooms are very clean but very far apart," requiring planning for families with young children.

Fishing opportunities for children: Smaller fishing areas prove ideal for young anglers. At Cozy Hills, one visitor reported, "Kids caught about 20 fish" during a midweek stay, indicating productive fishing experiences without requiring significant technical skills or specialized equipment.

Activity schedules: Family-friendly events provide structured entertainment options during peak season. Prospect Mountain Campground offers "activities every weekend such as dances, bingo, hayrides" according to Sandra S., who added they "also have a great pool, playground and pond for fishing" creating diverse recreation options within walking distance.

Tips from RVers

Site layout configurations: Pull-through sites at newer facilities offer easier access despite proximity concerns. At Lake Compounce Campground, Diane R. found "easy entry, long pull thrus" but noted "you will face your neighbor door to door" while appreciating that there was "enough room between you don't feel invaded."

Hookup reliability: Water and electrical services generally function well, with some limitations on sewer connections. Lake Compounce Campground provides "electric, water and cable TV connections" but "none of the sites have sewer" according to a reviewer, requiring use of the dump station when departing.

Road navigability: Interior road systems vary significantly in quality and width. At Copake Camping Resort, April L. observed management would sometimes "close one of the main roads in the campground for cornhole tournaments" which then means "anyone checking in may have to navigate through a really tight seasonal area to access their site" potentially creating difficulties for larger RVs.
