      Washington Crossing State Park - TEMP CLOSED FOR 2024

      History and Camping with Revolutionary Limits

      Washington Crossing Historic Park, straddling Pennsylvania and New Jersey along the Delaware River, is one of those rare places where you can literally camp in history. The Pennsylvania side is all about historic buildings, museums and picnic spots, while the New Jersey side (Washington Crossing State Park) offers organized group tent camping. This isn’t the place for a cushy RV getaway or individual tenters looking to sneak in for the night, but rather a structured, group-style camping steeped in Revolutionary War atmosphere. First impressions? More Boy Scout jamboree than weekend getaway, but if you’re here for camaraderie and heritage, you’ve hit the mark.

      Facilities are deliberately minimal. On the Pennsylvania side, camping is limited to a handful of Scout-designated sites with portable toilets, no running water and zero frills. Across the river in New Jersey, the official group camping area provides open tent-only sites with no hookups, no pets and strict quiet hours. Think old-school camping: fire rings, pit toilets and a heavy dose of ‘leave no trace’ ethos. Reservations are required, permits are non-negotiable and the max stay tops out at 14 nights. What you do get is a wide, peaceful forest setting with plenty of space for tents, youth groups or scout troops along with the kind of simplicity that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time.

      Beyond the tent pads, the surrounding parks are rich with history and outdoor options. On the Pennsylvania side, you’ll find the visitor center, historic McConkey’s Ferry Inn, Bowman’s Hill Tower, and interpretive programs that bring the Revolutionary War era to life. Picnic areas and a boat launch offer ways to enjoy the Delaware River. In New Jersey, miles of wooded trails lead you through rolling hills and historic landscapes, perfect for hiking and birdwatching. It’s a spot where history buffs, scouts and nature seekers can all find common ground.

      Insider Tips? Here’s a handful: (1) The best group sites are the ones tucked furthest from the trailhead as (surprise, surprise) they’re quieter and offer more privacy; (2) Stock up before arriving, as there are no supply stores inside the park, so head on over to nearby Weis Markets in Langhorne or ShopRite in Fairless Hills, both of which are on the PA-side; (3) Be sure to bring all your own water as none is available onsite; (4) Kayakers should launch from the Pennsylvania side’s boat access for an iconic paddle on the Delaware River; (5) Visit the park’s historic reenactments, especially the Christmas Day Crossing event as it’s easily the most memorable history lesson you’ll ever get outdoors; and (6) When you’re done camping, fuel up at It’s Nutts Restaurant on the Jersey side in Titusville for classic diner-style comfort food or Francisco’s on the River for Italian fare with Delaware River views.

      Happy Camping!

      Philadelphia South/Clarksboro KOA

      Close to Philadelphia

      We stayed here for 3 nights while visiting family In Philadelphia. It is a 20 minute ride into Philly and Uber was was quick and responsive.

      *note- this does close for winter and reopens in April but call park for exact closure dates because they do change.

      This is a nice KOA with full hook ups, tent sites,cabins, and even glamping cabins. There is a pool that is open Memorial Day- Labor Day. They also have a catch and release pond and we found a pickleball court at a nearby city park.

      We did Chinatown and walked part of the Schuylkill River trail which we accessed by parking near Fairmount Park. This is a great area to explore with gorgeous views and easy access to the River trail. (There are rentals for everything here- kayaks/bikes etc)

      IF we had a car with us- we would have considered taking the ferry from Camden’s Ferry Terminal next to Wiggins Park to Philly. (This is also near the Adventure Aquarium and the battleship New Jersey) Here is a link to information about the ferry-

      https://www.delawareriverwaterfront.com/places/riverlink-ferry

      This is a great location for exploring Philadelphia.

      Happy Camping! Pamela and Keith

      Camp Taylor Campground

      A beautiful forested campground with plenty of wildlife and birds.

      Easy access from Rt 80 and located close to the Lakota Wolf Preserve. With tours leaving them campground twice a day on both Saturday and Sundays for the wolf preserve, I was glad there was camping so close. The camping selection of sites is excellent with Cabins, Glamping tents, primitive tent sites and of course RV sites. I choose to stay in one of the glamping tents and was pleasantly surprised at the space inside the tent even with a double bed and two other fold out couches to beds. Water is available at the site. A small lake for swimming and boating. And lots of trails linking you to the Delaware river water gap area.

      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.

      Tohickon Valley County Park

      Great stop for a Bikepacker

      No electrical and no pets allowed in camp sites. But plenty of trees and huge fire rings in each spot. An RV would have a tough time but for car camping it’s great. The Delaware Canal is nearby with the tow path for biking. That makes this a nice Bikepacking stop.

      Camp Taylor Campground

      Great as long as you behave

      Having been here on a few occasions I will say it is def a beautiful spot in many regards. However, there are some downsides.

      Positives: sites are decent sized with fire pits and picnic tables. easy access to hiking, convenient to a beautiful vineyard, peaceful region, and the most amazing wolf preserve is right next to you.  

      Negative: limited access to firewood. sites are picked clean, quiet hours are strongly enforced- which can be a good thing depending upon who you are, the lake is anything but refreshing.

      French Creek State Park Campground

      Perfect even in the Rain

      First time camping at this park and it was perfect. Even though it rained all weekend, we explored the area by car, even tried some fishing off the pier and we got to get some much needed rest and relaxation in. D Loop seemed like the best loop (for tent campers such as us). Pretty spacious between sites. No pets though. B and C loop felt like the spaces were very close to each other. A loop was closed at this point. Bathhouses can use an upgrade but has flush toilets and hot showers which is all you need.

      Philadelphia South/Clarksboro KOA

      Peaceful New Jersey

      I arrived on a Tuesday a few days after they closed the pool, and by Wednesday I had the whole row of tent sites to myself. Maybe that's why it was so peaceful, but every night after my cacophonous conference in Philadelphia, I couldn't wait to turn down Timberlane Road and see that little KOA sign glowing in the darkness. In addition to the peaceful vibe, the people are friendly, the little office store has everything you forgot to pack, and if you look around the campground edges or follow the walking trail into the woods, you will find wonderful native plants like blueberry, viburnum, clethra, and meadow beauty.

    Guide to Lambertville

    Camping near Lambertville, New Jersey offers diverse options within the Delaware River Valley, where elevations range from 80 to 400 feet above sea level. The region experiences humid continental climate with four distinct seasons, making spring and fall particularly comfortable for overnight stays. Most campgrounds in this area remain open from April through October with varying degrees of site privacy and natural features.

    What to do

    Hiking trails and historical sites: Washington Crossing State Park, temporarily closed for 2024, normally offers group camping with access to historic trails. "Washington Crossing Historic Park, straddling Pennsylvania and New Jersey along the Delaware River, is one of those rare places where you can literally camp in history. The Pennsylvania side is all about historic buildings, museums and picnic spots, while the New Jersey side offers organized group tent camping," notes Stuart K.

    Fishing opportunities: Spruce Run Recreation Area provides waterfront sites with access to the reservoir for anglers. "You can launch your kayak easily from the shore. The water is crystal clear," explains Ruette W. This 2,350-acre reservoir supports multiple fish species for year-round fishing.

    River recreation: Camp Carr Campground offers riverside sites perfect for paddling. "Excellent view of the South Branch and extremely relaxing," writes Jim B. The South Branch of the Raritan River features gentle currents suitable for beginners through intermediate paddlers.

    What campers like

    Water access: Round Valley State Park Campground features primitive wilderness camping near its reservoir. "When you finally do arrive to this primitive CG immersed in NJ's thick wild foliage, you'll experience waterfront bliss with a crystalline bevy of trout-infused reservoir water," explains Stuart K. Sites must be accessed by hiking 3-6 miles or by boat.

    Private wooded sites: Many campers appreciate the seclusion available at certain campgrounds. "The primitive sites are very private, friendly staff, clean grounds," shares Kelsey K. about Little Red Barn Campground. Primitive sites often provide more space and natural screening than developed sites.

    Seasonal activities: Depending on timing, visitors can experience unique regional events. "Visit the park's historic reenactments, especially the Christmas Day Crossing event as it's easily the most memorable history lesson you'll ever get outdoors," recommends Stuart K. about Washington Crossing State Park.

    What you should know

    Access limitations: Reaching certain sites requires planning and effort. "We found parking in the Southern Lot to be perfectly fine and while we were initially worried about leaving our vehicle parked there for a few nights, we were reassured by the park rangers who patrol the lot constantly," notes Stuart K. about Round Valley State Park.

    Bathroom facilities: Quality varies significantly between campgrounds. "Bathrooms were clean with soap and paper towels. The shower had nice hot water," reports Lee D. about Little Red Barn Campground, while another reviewer noted, "only one bathroom and it's very far from the primitive sites."

    Weather considerations: Tohickon Family Campground requires careful planning around rain. "Don't come if your in a tent And It Has Been or will rain, It Becomes Flooded or turns into A mudPit," warns LU D. The clay-heavy soil in parts of this region drains poorly after rainfall.

    Tips for camping with families

    Pool options: Colonial Woods Family Resort offers swimming facilities for children. "The pool and splash pool for toddlers was clean with a lifeguard on duty at all times," notes Nicole S. The pool typically operates from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

    Organized activities: Many campgrounds schedule family-friendly events. "They did a few activities the one we did go to was the casino night where they had separate play areas for kids and adults. All the money made is donated to Shriners Children's Hospital which is awesome and the kids loved the candy and little prizes they won," explains Nicole S.

    Unique attractions: Ringing Rocks Family Campground offers proximity to unusual geological features. "Mom was away so took 3 babies on a trip. Went to Ringing Rocks county park and the kids were having so much fun making music they didn't want to leave," shares Justin B. Visitors should bring a hammer to experience the metallic sounds produced when striking certain rocks.

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection strategy: When glamping near Lambertville, New Jersey in RVs, choose sites carefully. "If you're tent camping the bathrooms are FAR and I highly doubt no one has ever peed outside at night instead of navigating through the night to them," mentions Erika T. about Ringing Rocks Family Campground. Consider proximity to facilities when booking.

    Electrical and water options: "Our spot was #27 and pretty spacious. The showers were free and clean with hot water and decent pressure. The landing for the camper was even with gravel and the rest of the site was mostly even. The power station was well intact with 15/20, 30, and 50amp," reports Sarah about Mountainview Campground.

    Vehicle access challenges: Some glamping locations present difficulties for larger vehicles. "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)," cautions Brian C. about Colonial Woods Family Resort. Scout routes in advance or call for specific access information if driving large RVs.
