Was my very first time camping out, went with my pups and my sons and did the van camping. The spot I had was very well shaded and pretty quiet. The only thing I wasn't big on was how far the trails are, would have to actually drive to it and park in a limited parking area. Due to weather didn't take the risk so am unable to give an opinion on it, but something to remember for the next trip. Only 30-35 min off the parkway, so nice and convenient.
We stayed in New Jersey for our 5th campground on the East Coast: Turkey Swamp Park in Freehold. This is a County park.
Near some Revolutionary War battlefields.
I really liked this park! They have 2283 acres. A 17 acre lake. Some hiking trails & a nice campground! The sites are all pullthrough. There's lots of vegetation for "privacy". We had a site on the perimeter, which are forest views. Only problem is none of the roads are paved. All are packed sand. We could tell it rained recently because of the muddy tracks. Fortunately it didn't rain while we were there!
Shower/bathrooms are clean, but dated. They're checked regularly. The bath house is for the entire campground. 3 out of the 4 women's were working. There's a shared dressing area.
There's a laundry that doesn't take quarters. EPay.
There's a nice playground in the campground.
They have 3 cabins for rent, with forest views.
The lake has fishing & boat rentals. No gas motors. There's no swimming at the lake. Cell service was fair.. No WiFi.
They have an archery range.
This was my favorite campground on our trip! I really enjoyed camping here! There's a rustic retro quality to the place. I adored the campsites & I didn't see any really bad ones.
Our 4rth state in our 5 state trip is New Jersey! We wanted to see Delaware Water Gap NRA & I found a campground by Newton called The Great Divide. This is a private campground. Very scenic with a small lake, a pond & surrounded by woods. This is also the most expensive campground on our trip at $96.11 a night.
Lots to do for families- they have kayaks for camper use. Horseshoes, tether ball, volleyball, a pool, a playground, a dog park. There's a swimming beach.
One strange thing is there's a lot of tent sites & they seemed popular. For the amount of tent/popup sites they only have 1 shower per loop. They are very clean & checked often, but they're used heavily during the weekend. I had better luck Sunday evening. A bench outside the bathroom would have been nice to sit & wait.
The rv sites were all full hookup on our loop.
We came in on a Friday & found out this campground ROCKS!!! They have live bands every Friday & Saturday night during the warm months. This might explain the higher rates. Party on!
We stayed on a mon/tues at the end of August and the campground was fairly empty and quiet except for a few generators running & air planes/ helicopters going over. There is an air force base in the area.
Site 33 is the back corner so we did get a bit more traffic going past to get on the sand trails. There is also background noise from the road, but not too loud. There are not many RV sites in the 3 loops - just a handful which is a shame because many of the sites marked as tent only look like they could easily accommodate most RVs, especially smaller rigs.
The dump station is locked so get the combo from the office if you want to use it. The ranger station is a bit of a drive from the camping area so if you don’t have cell service make sure you get it at check in.
Go down to the pond and check out the carnivorous plants- one of the most unique things in this area!
Several choices for hiking, but it’s the pine barrens so it is flat and sandy and ticks can be overwhelming at some times of the year.
Overall this is one of the nicer & quieter options for pine barrens camping
Be advised that Skyline RV Camp has moved to:
50 Noble St, Brooklyn, NY 11222
The original property location at 2 Oak St was sold and is now private property.
Google Maps coords are 40.730491531436556,-73.9577966772486
There no longer is a waterfront view of the NYC skyline when camping at Skyline RV. The website views are misleading.
A beautiful spot with plenty of space, a fire pit with grill and a table. We came in late on a Saturday after it was dark and couldn’t figure out where it was, the location on the map is slightly wrong. To get directions google maps to Deer Woods Campground. We paid the ranger in the morning, he said they upped the price to $50 if you are from out of county so that was a bummer.
If you’re looking for a place to be a recluse, this is not the campsite to go. Being it’s along the Delaware water gap it attracts a lot of people, especially in summer. During the day you can hear music, smell fires, see people tubing on the water, or pass by people doing day picnics near the forest office. I went in the middle of the week and all the campsite in my area were filled up. I’m normally used to having campgrounds to myself when I go since I do during off times so this was a bit of a surprise. WiFi is very spotty— I was essentially out of range the entirety of my stay. Trails are nice and well marked, and there is no fee to enter if you drive all the way down to the day area parking at the end of Old Mine Rd. Bathrooms were decently clean and had flush toilets. Showers had hot water and nice ventilation. Overall it was a nice campsite, but too busy for my liking.
We recently went camping with a tent there. Not tent friendly first night we slept on rocks second night we got moved to a spot which actually had some grass. Everything has weird hours. The cafe is only open on weekends and the store is only open from like 10:00 to 4:00 p.m. and that's it. The pool hours are good they're from 11:00 to 7:00. The bath houses are fine. It's just that there's nothing to do in the morning time nothing at all the lake that you want to call it or river it was all green like there's better campsites out there but this one isn't that bad If you're just staying for a night or two but just do not use a tent.
This might be my 3rd or 4th trip there. They advertise WiFi but the WiFi never works. No cable hookups. And cell service is at a minimum. Every time we go there, it’s a new excuse about the WiFi. Funny thing is, they take the time to show you your password lol.
My first time camping trip in a few decades... So can't compare to others (yet).
My campsite was 34W, right next the reservoir. Nice location however the website said it was full shade. The picnic table was in shade. The spot for the RV was full sun.
Pros:
Reasonable cost from NJ state website. I paid $41 for 2 days.
Campsites well spaced apart.
Staff friendly.
Boats/Kayaks can be rented.
Cons:
Showers were cold water only and very cold at that.
Late at night you can hear the drone of a major highway.
Pros: 50 AMP, sewer & water hookup Nice amenities
Cons: Sand sites Overpriced Tight site & hard to get in/out for big rigs
Cool
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.
There was only 1 bathroom with small shower for all guests, however they are in the process of adding 5 more. The only bathroom did have toilet paper, a garbage can and hand soap for the sink, but no paper towels to dry your hands and no shelves, hooks, or benches to put your things while you shower.
The campground was pretty hard to find. We almost gave up before we found someone local who could point us to the right place. One of the reasons is that their sign is half gone, small, and very hard to read.
The views of the city are spectacular, but the place itself is what I would call very rustic/primitive/not lovely.
The host was helpful but the administration seemed a little unorganized. When we tried to check in, they told us we were a day too early. I had booked through the Dyrt and there was a mixup. A day later, two days later, they texted us that we were late checking in. They had another mixup. On checkout day, we didn't check out on time and they didn't contact us until it was so late we had to pay for and stay another night. It was our fault, but a reminder of checkout time would have been helpful.
I have pictures I would add if there was a way to do that.
Nice new gravel and hook ups. Spacious sites. Large stream with fishing. WiFi good. ATT poor.
Extremely rude manager who will charge you for anything he can. Artie has zero people skills! If you give a card or deposit, expect to get excess charges. Poor Verizon connection, no wifi in some areas.
Tinicum is a well-kept gem here in Bucks County. One of the rare spots in the area where you can camp overnight.
It’s a small campground beside a huge park. Some individual sites tucked within trees & some bigger group sites closeby.
You should call ahead to reserve a site but I’ve shown up a few times & just paid the ranger when he/she came around.
It’s a state park so they don’t allow alcohol. But the rangers are pretty cool & good at their job. They’re there to do their job, not nitpick & ruin a relaxing night with friends by a fire. Keep things civil & not too loud, you’ll never know they’re there.
This RV park is literally just a parking lot and quite expensive for what it is.
The location is great, but the surrounding streets may be hard to maneuver with an RV if you’re a newbie. You can see the Statue of Liberty from the park, and there were several cafes and restaurants within walking distance.
If you’re looking for actual amenities, this probably isn’t the park for you. But if you just need a base camp for doing tourist activities in NYC then this place will do.
There is 24 hour security which is nice as well. We felt safe while we were there, but it was also fairly empty too.
Lovely campground, but maybe not the best for big rigs. We drove through here thinking we’d stay a night, but saw the “no pets” in the list of rules and didn’t stay. Later, when I was looking at the closeup of the picture of the campground map we took, I saw that some of the sites are designated as pet sites. Would have been nice to know that. Also, no alcohol allowed here.
The campground as a whole and the individual sites are kind of tricky for bigger rigs. We are in a 26ft class c and we squeezed through, and there were a few sites where we could have made it work, but I can imagine a big class A or 5th wheel having a tough time.
Showers here are nice and free and clean, water runs continuously (no button to push), and you can adjust the temperature. There’s a playground and volleyball court. There are dumpsters but no recycling (not sure if New Jersey segregates recycling after pickup).
ATT had some reception but we forgot to check the Verizon phone.
Didn’t see any instructions for how to pay if you don’t have a reservation. Reserved sites were marked, so maybe you just pick an empty unreserved site and a ranger will come collect the fees- but I’m just guessing. We drove through at the end of October and only saw one camper there, and another that might have been the host.
Lake Towhee Park Campground: (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good (70 yr olds in 17’ trailer). I rate based on desire for at least a moderate wilderness type experience w at least some camp site privacy. Overall Rating: 4.5 Usage during visit: Empty Site Privacy: Outside sites: Great Site Spacing: Very large sites Site surface: Gravel Road Noise: Far from busy roads. Through Traffic in campground: None Electric Hookup: No Sewer Hookup: No Bathroom: One bathroom Showers: I was told that there are showers. I did not verify. Pull Throughs: All we’re back in sites. Setting: Deciduous forest with nice fall color . There are trails from the campground to the lake. Day use are with playground is walking distance. Weather: Perfect fall weather. Bugs: None in October. Solar: Some sites will probably be open enough for some solar time during the day Host: Not during my October visit. Rig size: I do not advise large rigs. Sites: All sites are good because most are large and all are nicely spaced. The outside sites look especially cozy and private.
On visiting the office the staff was very accommodating and helpful. The two ladies had a greater handle on the operations of the very nice facility.
We stopped for one night on the first leg of our drive to Florida from Massachusetts. We drive a class A, our site was snug but easy enough to get in and out of (we were lucky enough to be able to pull through from the adjoining site). Water pressure was weirdly low. But the place was clean and pretty with plenty of trees. We were across from the playground area which looked more like a small park - very nice. Overall a good place for us to spend the night so that we could be plugged in.
The first thing that you’ll note is that Village Scene Park (a.k.a. VSP) is located smack dab in the middle of an otherwise sprawling suburban area of the nearby metro Philly. You’ll be driving down tree-lined, shady streets one moment and the very next, you’ll happen across this unusual spot that seems to have carved itself years ago into the very suburban neighborhood that you’ll find yourself in. Because of this, you’ll appreciate that the place is incredibly quiet and far enough away from busy traffic.
Located 30 miles or so northwest from ‘The City of Brotherly Love,’ VSP is a hodge-podge of different living accommodations, and when we first arrived, I have to admit, I was very confused. Is this a 55+ retirement community? Yes, kind of. Trailer home park? Well, sort of. Is this a place where you can roll up for one night and anchor your RV? Yep, it still is. So, if you can get past the point that this spot is not the traditional RV park that you might be used to, then VSP might just be a good fit for you, to be honest, in a patch of geography that doesn’t really have a whole lot of other options for the RV and 5th Wheel toting crowd.
As far as this RV park goes, there’s about 2 dozen or so slots, albeit there’s a decent amount of vacant land adjacent to the 2-3 strips of parallel running pavement pathways where you’ll see RV’s lined up on either side. So my first bit of advice would be to certainly call ahead to ensure that there’s adequate ‘room at the inn’ here. VSP’s location is great for those wanting to access some of the bigger, better things in Philly proper, without having to actually stay in the city. You will certainly appreciate that clear out here, and away from the city, you’ll certainly feel safe leaving your RV to go into the city and explore. Nearby there’s a SEPTA Doylestown / Landsdale regional rail line stop that will pretty much give you all of the direct access to the city without having to bother with driving through any of the traffic to enjoy Philly.
Amenities include: 30 / 50 electrical amp on all sites, private mailboxes, public water and sewar hook-ups, 24 hour coin-operated laundry, WiFi (albeit quite low speed), restroom / shower facilities (that are just mediocre) and Cable TV / gas for an additional price. Oh, and there’s a $20 flat dump fee, opened 9-4pm M-F, but closed on the weekends (to our chagrin, we found this out too late!). Again, there’s an empty lot right next to the area designated for RVers, so me thinks if you come bringing Fido, you’ll have plenty of space for him / her / they to run around and do their business. Prices were standard at $46 / night;$274 / week and$595 / month – not great, but not too terribly bad considering you are so near a major metro.
Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) When you get thirsty for some of the local stuff – and why wouldn’t you here in a beer haven like Philly? – then head due south of VSP on Koffel Road, where you’ll come across Imprint Beer Co, where you can try a nice native lager; (2) If you’ve somehow run out of things to make for that next meal, fret not and hop on over to downtown Hatfield, where I’d recommend checking out Mom’s Real Italian, Philomena Santucci’s Square Pizza or Doyle’s for some great locally Philly grub; (3) For history buffs, check out nearby Morgan Log House, which has some nice historical significance and is super close to VSP; (4) If you were looking to actually enjoy a bit of nature while in this area, I would recommend heading over to nearby Peace Valley Nature Center, which is only about 10 minutes away from here and features good walking trails near a small lake; and (5) Should you need to let the kids unwind for a bit to run around and explore, I would suggest the Amazing Escape Room, just due east of here by 5 minutes.
Happy Camping!
Overall a very pretty campground and a nice place for a weekend getaway. We have a tiny camper and we had a great site with power and water. The campground has a lot of seasonal residents, in the summer it's probably very busy and loud. We went early Sept and it was lovely. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There is a section that is wooded and the sites feel more private. There's another section that's more open for the bigger rigs. The Lake is the gem of the campground with a really nice beach, good for fishing and kayaking. The negatives were the bathrooms. They are very primitive and quite dirty. No one cleaned them the entire weekend we were there, even the ones next to the camp store. There's only one decent bathroom with showers and that was really far from our site. The other thing I didn't like is that they charged us $20 to launch our ckayak but only charge $15 to rent one of theirs. We had a good weekend despite all that though.
I stayed at Cheesequake at the beginning of August and had a very positive experience.
Campsite
Campsites are fully shaded and include a picnic table, fire ring, and hook to hang food supplies from (away from wildlife). The site was well kept and clean - I didn't have to look hard to find a nice secluded space for my tent.
Each site is separated from its neighbors by a small (about 5-10 foot) forested area, and are deep enough that you can pitch your tent away from the road and have some privacy.
The park is bisected by the Garden State Parkway. While the campsite is fairly well protected from highway noise, you're still going to hear it at least a little.
Amenities
The bathroom and shower facility is older and has limited stalls, but I didn't have any issues with lines or finding time to use it. They're closed for about an hour in the early morning.
Potable water is available at the bathroom and showers.
The lake has a small beach and swimming area, and a concession stand. On Friday the beach was pretty quiet, it was closed on Saturday due to water conditions however.
Access
The park is about 2 miles from the nearest train station and can be accessed on foot, but it may be difficult with camping gear. I took the train to the station and a rideshare the rest of the way to the entrance. The campsite is about a mile from the park entrance so it's easier overall to drive, but not required. Bringing a bike to travel within the park would be a good idea.
I'm typing this at 2:22 AM as the group site next to us has been playing amplified music into the wee hours of the morning for two nights in a row.. We called the number for the noise complaints...and nothing. Where is the oversight in this place? There is no park ranger on site. So you are pretty much on your own here. If you are looking for a nice peaceful getaway from the city to quietly enjoy nature....this is not it. I've been looking forward to this trip all year(after having stayed here in 2013).... I'm am so disappointed.
***Additionally:
There was a thunderstorm on Thursday night, and in the past a police officer or ranger would warn us to sleep in our cars if the storm was too close. I naively assumed the same would have happened now. That did not happen now. I stayed up all night and timed the Thunder and lightning in case I had to warn our group.
This is an awesome campground that I would definitely like to visit again. Problem with that is, they have sold it to the county to make a public green space. This is their last season. There are hiking trails, canoe or kayaking, a great store, full hookups, a huge pool, laundry facilities, bath houses, volleyball, and playgrounds. Clean and friendly. Our site B6 was pretty much level, needed 1 block on the right side.
