Best RV Parks & Resorts near Bayonne, NJ
Liberty Harbor RV Park in Jersey City provides 90 sites with water and electric hookups, offering views of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. Sites are tightly spaced in what is essentially a gravel parking lot with full security. The park provides convenient access to NYC via nearby ferries and public transportation, with restrooms, showers, and a dump station available on premises. Skyline RV Camp in Brooklyn offers 48 sites with electric hookups but no water connections at the site. Both parks accommodate big rigs, though maneuvering can be challenging in the urban environment. "This is basically a parking lot, with absolutely nothing but a spot to park. It's pricey, but if you're planning on seeing everything NYC has to offer, you can't get a better base camp."
Navigating to these urban RV parks requires careful planning. Streets surrounding Liberty Harbor may be difficult to maneuver with larger rigs, particularly during construction periods. The park charges premium rates ($120/night) reflecting its unique location rather than its amenities. Most visitors use these parks primarily as bases for exploring New York City, spending minimal time at their sites. NWS Earle RV Park in Colts Neck offers a military-only alternative with full hookups on concrete pads, operating seasonally from April to November. Mahlon Dickerson Reservation provides a more traditional camping experience with electric and water connections about 40 miles west of Bayonne, described in reviews as "quiet, with level paved sites and miles of hiking trails."
