Best RV Parks & Resorts near Califon, NJ

873 Reviews

RV campgrounds in the Califon region include Liberty Harbor RV Park with 90 sites in Jersey City, featuring full electric hookups (30/50 amp) and a sanitary dump station. Mountain Top RV Park provides electric, water, and sewer connections while accommodating larger motorhomes on its accessible drive-in sites. Tri-State RV Park in Matamoras offers big-rig friendly spaces with 50-amp service, sewer hookups, and water connections, though the exact number of sites isn't specified. Thousand Trails Scotrun in Pennsylvania provides year-round access with full hookup capabilities for larger rigs. "Sites are level, good placement of electric water & sewer connects," noted one visitor about a nearby campground.

Several campgrounds offer varying amenities for RV travelers throughout the region. Full hookup options are more prevalent at private RV parks than at state-operated facilities, which often provide electric-only sites with nearby water spigots and centralized dump stations. Cell service can be unreliable at more remote locations, with one reviewer describing Panther Lake as having "bad cell service with Verizon" and "WiFi only around office." Navigation to some parks requires careful planning, as narrow roads with low-hanging branches can challenge larger motorhomes. Seasonal availability varies by location, with some parks closing between November and April while others maintain year-round operations. Most RV parks in the area welcome pets but may have breed or size restrictions along with designated pet-friendly sections.

    Adventure Bound Camping (Tall Pines)

    Deceiving Website

    We stayed at Adventure Bound Tall Pines in Elmer, New Jersey, for Memorial Day weekend for a quick getaway. Despite reserving and paying for a“Premium” site, it fell far short. But there were still a few things we liked… 

    THINGS I LIKED: 

    1. Super-friendly staff, especially Allie, who was courteous and seemed to try to make things right 

    2. Lots of mature shade trees 

    3. DJ at the pool Saturday and Sunday and live band Saturday evening 

    4. Close proximity to Delsea Drive-in Theatre and Cohenzick Zoo 

    THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE SO MUCH: 

    1. I reserved and paid-in-full for a premium site which listed 50-amp service and a concrete pad. Nope. Only 30-amp service and no concrete pad. When I called the office, assuming there must’ve been a mistake, I was told by two different staff members that their website is“wonky.” I wouldn’t mind as much, but this weekend was 90-degrees each day and humid, so it would’ve been good to have air conditioning. 

    2. The entire park was dirty sand with weeds growing everywhere 

    3. This place is not big-rig friendly, difficult to navigate some of the turns in our 45’ motorhome and taking scratches from tree branches that should be trimmed 

    4. I paid$432 for 3-nights and feel like I was taken 

    WOULD WE COME BACK? 

    Nope. I’m sticking with campgrounds that give you what you paid for.

    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. 💎

    Adventure Bound Camping (Tall Pines)

    Overpriced

    Pros: 50 AMP, sewer & water hookup Nice amenities

    Cons: Sand sites Overpriced Tight site & hard to get in/out for big rigs

    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.

    Tobyhanna State Park Campground

    Great family campground

    This place only gets 4 stars because I thought we were going to have water and electric hook ups. They only have 2 kinds of sites, modern electric (only electric) and primitive. They have a potable water station and dump station and very few sites with electric hook up. They also have specific pet friendly sites. We had a wonderful time here. We went for Father’s Day weekend in June. The lake is gorgeous! Beachfront swimming and boat rentals, great biking and hiking trails. Sites are mostly separated by trees but are still close. Bath houses were very clean and they have a dish washing sink as well. Beach is within walking and biking distance. Two cons- Bath house at the beach is 50 cents for a 2-minute shower, so we just went back to the campground bath house to clean up. The playground near sites 53-56 is a little underwhelming. Otherwise was a great stay! We already booked another stay in September this year!

    The Pines Campground — Promised Land State Park

    Quiet, just remote enough, a Great Lake, and nice camp hosts

    I stayed for three nights in a pull through trailer site with 50 AMP and 30 AMP electric. Easy to get in and out of, nice and shady, big spaces so you were not on top of one another, and nice and quiet. Clean and modern bath house, water close by, and great camp hosts. Definitely recommend it.

    Lower Lake Campground Northwoods Area — Promised Land State Park

    Northwoods Campground

    Big sites with 30 amp service available for RVs and trailers. Each site has a large picnic table and a fire ring with an adjustable grate. The pull-through sites don’t offer much in the way of privacy, but that’s the trade off for convenience. There are two potable water spigots in the campground. The bathhouse offers warm showers, 2 dishwashing sinks, and a coin-operated washer and dryer. The facilities are kept very clean. On the weekends it can get pretty crowded, so it tends to be louder at night then, but the camp hosts and the rangers do a good job of enforcing quiet hours. Access points to several trails are very near the campground. As with all PA state parks, alcohol is prohibited. The park doesn’t have a camp store, however, there is a small general store on Route 390 (The Lake Store) just north of the park that would have any essentials you may have forgotten, as well as ice for your cooler.

Guide to Califon

RV campers near Califon, New Jersey find diverse options within a 30-50 mile radius of this rural Hunterdon County location. The region sits at approximately 500 feet elevation in the New Jersey Highlands, with seasonal camping conditions ranging from humid summers to potentially snowy winters. Most private campgrounds remain open year-round, while state parks typically close between late November and early April.

What to do

Outdoor recreation access: Thousand Trails Scotrun in Pennsylvania offers a convenient base for Pocono Mountains activities during all seasons. "We came in at end of season, so pretty much everything seems closed. But, it's a beautiful campground and the part of PA is great too," notes one camper about fall visits.

Adventure activities: Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort provides mountain biking opportunities down former ski slopes. "Ride the ski lifts up to the top of the mountain then you get to bike down it, they have rental bikes available or bring your own. You can also Zip line or swing through the trees if you would rather," explains a reviewer.

Urban exploration: Visitors wanting city experiences can use Liberty Harbor RV Park as a base. "The light rail is a block away, and the path train is about 8. Getting in and out of the city is an adventure. Stay right off the highway to avoid the $30 tunnel toll," advises one RVer.

What campers like

Peaceful settings: Campers appreciate quiet locations away from urban centers. "The gem is the beautiful grounds, river, and parklike setting. Lots of wildlife around," mentions a reviewer at Tri-State RV Park in Matamoras.

Clean facilities: Well-maintained bathhouses get consistent positive mentions. "Shower/bathrooms are the best I've ever seen," reports one camper about Stonybrook RV Resort. Another notes that at Timothy Lake South, "The laundry area and shower rooms are beautiful and clean."

Accessibility to attractions: Locations with strategic proximity to activities receive high marks. "This is a point to point camp on the freeway. Easy on and off on I-84. Great place to pull in for the night if you are traveling. Safe, clean, and right on the Delaware River," explains a Tri-State RV Park visitor.

What you should know

Site spacing considerations: Many RV parks near Califon have tightly arranged sites. "Larger rigs will barely have a yard. And don't bet on a private picnic table," warns a visitor to Liberty Harbor RV Park.

Highway noise levels: Proximity to highways affects some campgrounds. At Timothy Lake South, one camper observed: "Sites are long but narrow. Best water pressure I have seen on the east coast, unregulated it's over 80 psi."

Connectivity challenges: Cell service varies widely throughout the region. "Cell service is awful for AT&T and our T-Mobile gateway. Had to move to a new site to get away from the trees to get starlink connectivity," reports a Timothy Lake South visitor.

Weather considerations: The region experiences all four seasons distinctly. "We stayed here during the winter January-February no activities going on. It does offer beautiful views especially covered in snow," notes a Stonybrook RV Resort camper.
