Best RV Parks & Resorts near Port Washington, NY
Several RV camping options are available near Port Washington, though most require driving to neighboring areas. Liberty Harbor RV Park in Jersey City offers 90 sites with water and electric hookups, providing easy access to Manhattan via nearby ferries and trains. "This is basically a parking lot with a dump station. Not much else," one camper noted about Liberty Harbor, though its proximity to NYC makes it popular despite the $120 nightly rate. Nickerson Beach Park Campground in Lido Beach provides RV sites with full hookups from April through November, including 50-amp service for larger rigs. Battle Row Campground in Old Bethpage operates year-round with water hookups but no electric service, while Skyline RV Camp has recently relocated from its original waterfront location to Noble Street in Brooklyn.
RV travelers should note that most parks in the area require advance reservations, particularly during summer months. According to one visitor, "Nickerson Beach is all but impossible to get an RV spot from Memorial Day to Labor Day." Liberty Harbor maintains 24-hour security but offers minimal amenities beyond hookups and a laundry facility. Big rig access can be challenging at some locations, particularly in Brooklyn and Jersey City where narrow streets may be difficult to navigate. Dump stations are limited, with Liberty Harbor providing one that sometimes forms lines during busy checkout periods. Several parks enforce restrictions on generator use and open fires, with Battle Row and Skyline RV Camp prohibiting pets while others welcome them with certain limitations.
