Mountain Top RV Park offers year-round camping with spacious sites suitable for larger rigs. Liberty Harbor RV Park provides 90 sites with electric and water connections in an urban setting. "Our site was nicely wooded, very well spaced, fairly level with 50A service and water hookup, although the water spigots were shared between sites," noted one RV traveler.
Within 30 miles of Haskell, most RV parks maintain serviceable roads for motorhome access, though some mountain locations require careful navigation on narrow, winding roads. Dump stations are available at several parks including Mahlon Dickerson and Pleasant Acres. Cell service varies significantly by location, with stronger signals near towns and weaker coverage in mountainous areas. Black Bear RV Park remains open year-round with 74 sites featuring full hookups, though amenities like bathrooms may close seasonally. Most parks are pet-friendly with varying restrictions.

Cool Riverside Campground
I'll start by saying this is a site-specific review (C20). I booked using Campspot and didn't select my own site but put in the criteria for my rig (30ft TT plus truck) and got a 50A back-in spot. The site was big but abnormal. Between the picnic table placement and the trees, I ended up right around 50ft from the electric and water, and the water spigot was so low I could barely put on my camco filter. With the uneven dirt roads, I had to unhitch with my truck in a gigantic puddle (lol). The site was otherwise fine aside from my gate code not working on Day 2. As for the campground as a whole, I thought it was pretty unique place by the river that offered several good amenities and activities, like downstream river tubing, an arcade, bathroom/shower facilities, a small store, little trails, and more. I would say this place borders the more primitive side.
Edwin R.ScoutCheesequake State Park Campground
Park uses county cops to shut down park by 9pm.
On Friday, September 4, 2026, I rented a trailer and brought my family to Cheesequake State Park to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary over the extended Labor Day weekend. Around 9:20 PM—well before the park's designated 10:00 PM quiet hours—we were sitting inside our canopy, playing Jenga, and listening to low background music. Two officers from the Matawan Police Department approached our campsite. They were polite and courteous, simply offering a standard reminder to wrap things up by 10:00 PM. Before they could leave, however, a third, senior officer intervened. Wanting to"show them how it's done," he made the two polite officers return and stand by to watch as he demonstrated how to aggressively harass campers. Flashlight in hand, the senior officer approached with an immediate hostile attitude, treating us like criminals as he demanded to know who rented the site. He began reiterating rules and claimed we had too many vehicles. We had three cars, one belonging to my brother-in-law's girlfriend, who was visiting with her daughter. She had paid the$10 visitor fee at the main office and was instructed by staff to obtain the gate access code from us, the primary renters, if she got locked in. No staff member ever informed her of an 8:00 PM visitor departure deadline, leading us to reasonably assume visitors were permitted until quiet hours began at 10:00 PM. The officer rudely snapped that she had been given wrong information. The senior officer then used profanity in front of three small children, aggressively telling her to ("get her shit and get the fuck out!") in that manner or use profanity, the officer went from hostile to furious. He angrily declared that these were official violations and threatened that he could be issuing us tickets instead. Desperately searching for anything and everything to throw at us, he demanded that we turn off our idling car—which was supplying power to our campsite—and instructed us to make sure the campfire was doused before shutting down for the night. He then proceeded to shine his flashlight into our private setup—including our canopy, tents, and the inside of our trailer—searching for any other possible violation while the two polite officers were forced to watch. What was supposed to be a special 10th wedding anniversary celebration with my family was completely ruined by a senior officer misusing his authority to put on an unnecessary display of intimidation. Worse than just ruining our night, he spent that evening teaching those two police officers how to be bad cops. He corrupted two officers in real time, demonstrating firsthand exactly why most people have lost faith in the police force. The next day we was ready for them. We turned off our lights and quietly by the fire while they went next door to harass an asian family that had just set up camp and had their leds lights on.

Black Bear RV Park
Super clean and quiet
Past reviews has mentioned that the office seems to be closed often, while I found that to be true I had no reason to contact anyone. This is definitely one of the cleanest quiets site I’ve ever visited

Check site photos first
Definitely a wide variety of sites—look at the site pictures before booking—there are two areas where it’s just an open field with bonfires and picnic tables that I’d avoid. I could see a large group going there or something but personally it doesn’t offer any privacy.
BUT if you book one of the other sites that DOES have privacy you’ll be in camping heaven. The “hike in” sites are more like “walk-in,” I was worried at first but it’s some are as little as a few yards from the road. The most annoying part was lugging the cooler back and forth, but totally worth it

Stephens State Park Campground
Great last min getaway
Booked the day before—even on the holiday weekend! Just 1.5 hours outside of NYC, site was a bit close to the neighbors (fire pit was very far back and basically in the neighbors’ campsite, but we put up a “privacy clothesline” and hung a tarp over it for a bit of extra coverage.
The staff was friendly and helpful, they said it was the busiest they’ve seen the campground all year (there were lots of large groups but everyone seemed to settle down by 9:30pm
Poison ivy was EVERYWHERE at our site so make sure to stick to the open areas and the paths. Lots of families around, we felt very safe Bathrooms were fine—it was my impression they’re usually cleaner but the high traffic of the weekend left a bit to be desired, (lots of families around=dirty diapers in the bathroom trash bin) but it’s camping! I’m not gonna argue w a flushing toilet!

A place to stay in an area lacking campgrounds.
This area seems to be devoid of campgrounds except for this one. It’s basically just a large parking lot with hook ups. Completely open, which is great for Starlink. Bathrooms were slightly above average; fairly clean and places to hang clothes for your shower. Has a laundry but be sure to bring quarters. It is about 100 yards from the interstate so you’ll get a lot of noise and diesel exhaust fumes.

Great off season camping
We camped here in our pop up for our Anniversary in November. We were impressed with the cleanliness and available amenities for the time of year we were camping in! Close proximity to DWG and PA AND NJ attractions.

Large sites & friendly staff!
Another great experience. Sites were large. Staff was friendly with many different things for kids to do. Great base camp for local hikes.
Guide to Haskell
Near Haskell, New Jersey, camping options sit within the Highlands region at elevations between 400-1,500 feet. Winter temperatures can drop below 20°F, while summer days reach 80-85°F with moderate humidity. Local campgrounds typically maintain 20-75 foot spacing between sites, with most operating from April through October.
What to do
Hiking trails access: Mahlon Dickerson Reservation offers extensive trail networks connecting directly to campsites. "There are plenty of trails, water (creeks, pond, lake) views and even if the place is packed there is PLENTY of room," notes one visitor who appreciates the natural setting without resort-style amenities.
Urban exploration from campgrounds: Liberty Harbor RV Park provides unique access to New York City. "Very plain & functional, no frills but right on the harbor & on the very edge of Jersey City, close to a ferry & the train that takes u across to New York City. Shopping & restraunts are right next door. We brought scooters & had a great stay!" reports one camper.
Wildlife viewing: Mountain landscapes near camping areas support diverse wildlife. "The best part was at dusk when the animals came out!" reports one camper at Black Bear RV Park. Multiple campgrounds post bear warnings, so proper food storage is essential.
What campers like
Natural forest settings: Tree cover provides shade and privacy at many sites. At Mahlon Dickerson Reservation, visitors appreciate the layout: "The sites are spaced well and have a nice bonus of large fire rings set back in the woods a bit from the pad that you park on."
Convenient city access: For campers wanting urban adventures, some rv sites near Haskell, New Jersey offer strategic locations. "This is a pricey park, but options are limited. As in almost non-existent. This is a prime location for visiting the city or heading down the shore. The light rail is a block away, and the path train is about 8," notes one Liberty Harbor visitor.
Quality bathrooms at select locations: While bathroom facilities vary significantly between parks, some maintain excellent standards. "The bath house was above average and heated. The laundry was helpful and was acceptable," reports a Liberty Harbor camper, though this contrasts with other parks where facilities may be more basic.
What you should know
Varying site spacing: While some campgrounds advertise spacious sites, actual conditions vary by location. At Tri-State RV Park, a visitor noted the pragmatic setup: "Sites are on a gravel lot. Restrooms are clean. Not much else to say about this CG, is just a parking lot with hookups."
Highway noise levels: Proximity to major roads affects some camping experiences. "Located just off the highway so lots of vehicle noise 24/7," reports one Tri-State RV Park visitor. This issue appears at multiple locations near main transportation corridors.
Winter service limitations: Many campgrounds reduce services during colder months. At Black Bear RV Park, a winter visitor reported: "None of their amenities/buildings were open (I was warned about this when I reserved, so it was not a surprise)." Always confirm which facilities remain operational if camping off-season.
Tips for camping with families
Pet-friendly options: Most campgrounds accept pets with varying restrictions. Pleasant Acres Farm RV Resort offers unique animal interactions: "The farm has goats, a donkey, and a pony within the campground. Very cool."
Playground access: Family-oriented campgrounds typically provide play areas of varying quality. "There is a small playground, a mini golf, and a large dog walk. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable of the area," notes a visitor to Pleasant Acres, though they also mention maintenance issues.
Swimming options: Pools provide recreation during summer months at select locations. At Mountain Top RV Park, visitors appreciate the "updated pool, playground, game room, and a brand-new pickleball court that added a unique touch to the stay."
Tips from RVers
Hookup reliability: Water connections can sometimes be problematic. At Mahlon Dickerson, "Website lists water hook ups at long distances but they have hose reels to help with that. Our site (15) said 75' however the 50' hose reel made it to our rv connection."
Navigation challenges: Some rv sites near Haskell require careful driving. For Liberty Harbor, one RVer advises: "Getting in and out of the city is an adventure. Stay right off the highway to avoid the $30 tunnel toll. Follow RV life pro and not Waze."
Seasonal booking requirements: Advance planning becomes critical during peak periods. Mountain Top RV Park visitors note the necessity of reservations, especially if seeking specific amenities: "The investment in new 50amp wiring, upgraded sewer systems, and newer water lines provided convenient camping experience."
