That was so crazy because we were just sitting by our camper," warns Laura Y. about Turkey Swamp Park, suggesting families should bring appropriate repellent.
Bathroom facility considerations: Campground bathrooms vary in quality and convenience. "The bathroom s don't have shelves and the showers are not very convenient.

Tips from RVers
City access strategies: RVers visiting urban areas should research transportation options. "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," advises Joe R. about navigating around Liberty Harbor RV Park.
Satellite reception limitations: Tree coverage affects TV reception at wooded sites. At Turkey Swamp Park, the dense tree canopy limits satellite dish effectiveness, with several campers reporting they relied on over-the-air antenna reception instead.
Dump station timing: Some facilities have limited dump station hours. At Village Scene Park, there's "a $20 flat dump fee, opened 9-4pm M-F, but closed on the weekends," which Stuart K. discovered "too late!" Plan accordingly to avoid similar issues.
