Best RV Parks & Resorts near Boonton, NJ

729 Reviews

Several RV parks surround Boonton, New Jersey, offering varied options for motorhome travelers. Mahlon Dickerson Reservation in Jefferson provides water and electric hookups with 50 amp service on level paved sites, though it's not suitable for larger rigs. Black Bear RV Park in Florida, NY operates year-round with 74 full hookup sites that accommodate big rigs with both 30 and 50 amp connections. Mountain Top RV Park features big-rig friendly sites with full hookups, while Pleasant Acres Farm RV Resort in Sussex operates seasonally from April through October with spacious sites and complete utility connections. Liberty Harbor RV Park in Jersey City has 90 sites with water and electric hookups but no sewer connections. "The sites are nicely wooded, very well spaced, fairly level with 50A service and water hookup. Although the water spigots were shared between sites, they provide hose caddies that should reach most RV hookups," noted one Mahlon Dickerson visitor.

Cell service varies significantly across RV campgrounds in the region. AT&T users report good connectivity at Mahlon Dickerson with 1-2 bars, while Panther Lake Camping Resort has spotty reception for all carriers. Navigation requires careful planning, particularly for larger motorhomes. Mountain Top RV Park recently upgraded its infrastructure with new 50 amp wiring and improved sewer systems. Most parks are pet-friendly, though specific rules vary by location. Dump stations are available at most parks, with Mahlon Dickerson offering a convenient station for those without sewer hookups. Turkey Swamp Park features pull-through sites exclusively, making it ideal for larger rigs with towed vehicles. Weekend reservations are essential during summer months, with many parks filling completely. Winter camping options are limited, with Black Bear RV Park and Thousand Trails Scotrun in Pennsylvania among the few year-round operations within reasonable driving distance of Boonton.

    Kymers Camping Resort

    Fun, friendly & nestled in the woods

    We stayed at Kymer's on a whim for a weekend, so we could be close to Mountain Creek for a Spartan Race. It truly exceeded our expectations in all aspects. This is a family friendly, camper-friendly place. Lots of seasonals- everyone waves, everyone stops to chat. This is what a campground should feel like. The sound of laughter and play sitting around the huge, clean pool was refreshing. Our site was Oak 10. It was level, good placement of electric water & sewer connects. Camp store has all the basics you might need. There is a brook that flows adjacent to the property. It's peaceful & magical. Pet friendly, although we didn't have our pup with us. We will be back again. I almost feel like I'm revealing a hidden gem with this post. 💎

    Colonial Woods Family Resort

    Not big rig friendly.

    Ok so let me start off by saying. If we still had our smaller travel trailer this review would’ve been at least 4 stars. However this place is not the place for you if you have a fifth wheel. The roads are very narrow, pretty sizable boulders on both sides, trees are very low and need to be trimmed (almost took my ac out with a huge limb). Now if you’re not big rig camping like we do, this place is great for you. Close to the ringing rocks and three other towns. We were able to do so much even though it rained the entire weekend we were there.

    Mountain Vista Campground

    Mt Vista Campground

    Beautiful Campground. Clean. Gravel sites. Fire ring and picnic table. All sites have ample room. Lots of pull through for bigger rigs. Wooded. Large dog park. Love the Campground except our site is near a fairly busy road which takes away from that beautiful tranquility. They have camouflaged it as best they could. Friendly staff. Lots to do. Pool, tennis. Sauna, pond for fishing ( catch & release ). Would definitely recommend.

    Mahlon Dickerson Reservation

    Nice, small, spacious campground

    We stayed at site 15 for 5 days. The sites are nicely wooded, very well spaced, fairly level with 50A service and water hookup. Although the water spigots were shared between sites, they provide hose caddies that should reach most RV hookups. No sewer hookup, but there is a convenient dump station. There are no fire rings in the RV section, only raised grills. We had the place pretty much to ourselves during the week, but the weekend did get busy. AT&T had ok data connection with 1-2 bars most of the time. There is no satellite coverage due to the heavy tree canopy. OTA TV was very inconsistent using an external omni antenna. There is no WiFi. There is a very nice network of trails in the reservation, most if not all were leashed dog friendly. There is a very nice restaurant, Stone Water, less than 10 miles away and is right on lake Hopatcong.

    Panther Lake Camping Resort

    Stayed all summer

    We stayed at Panther Lake as full timers all season. Great during the week but very busy on weekends. Could be noisy with children not very well supervised.
    Friendly, helpful staff. Cable TV poor when it rains. Cell service spotty all carriers. No internet at sites. Lake beautiful and pool nice.

    Turkey Swamp Park

    Quiet Woodland Campground

    Turkey Swamp Park is a great find! Heavily wooded and supremely quiet, it’s located not far from anywhere you’d want to be. 30 minutes to the shore. Every site is a pull-through, large and spacious with great woodland views. 30amp and water. Dump station.

    The park has miles of shady forested trails for hiking and dog walking. there’s a large lake here too, for water based recreational activities.

    The bathrooms, showers, and laundry are co-located in a centrally situated structure. Everything inside is clean and well-maintained.

    We’ve got good cell signal with Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint. (We use all three.) Good OTA television signal also.

    We spent three days here in July 2021.

    Jerry's Three River Campground

    Friendly and fun!

    I have been camping at Jerry’s for over 10 years now. The owner is friendly and stops to chat often with us each time we go. The campground is VERY rustic with little to no amenities. There are tent sites, seasonal sites for RVs, group tent & RV sites and group/pavilion sites. There are little to no sites with electric/water hook ups however, there is a centrally located water spout to use. There are bathrooms/wash houses- they are cleaned once or twice a day but honestly, they get filthy. Jerry’s is a good place for a great time with friends; large groups usually visit Jerry’s year after year. No one bothers you and everyone respects the rules, most of the time. ☺️ We have taken our children there often but I wouldn’t recommend or call it family friendly. The location is beautiful and about 2 hours from NYC.

    Delaware Water Gap / Pocono Mountain KOA

    Family friendly, super kind staff

    We have stayed at a few KOAs and we really liked this one. The staff were kind and so helpful. This is right by Shawnee, several water sports places and near some great hikes. Campground has some nice shaded 30amp back in spots with full hookups. We stayed in 47 which backs up to a wooded area & had good cover. Although the map shows site 47 as electric & water only it's actually full hookups (they just haven't updated the map yet). Some of the pull through sites in the center are not shaded at all, as a heads up. Friends stayed in a deluxe cabin, which was beautiful & looked brand new inside. The camp store has everything you might need. Wi-Fi is free and signal OK. The pool is well maintained and there's a ton of space for outdoor activities like volleyball, mini golf & more. We did a buddy site and stayed next to friends as well for a small extra fee per site. We would stay here again!
