Clarence Fahnestock State Park Campground provides electric hookups and water access with sites able to handle RVs up to 40 feet. Liberty Harbor RV Park in Jersey City offers 90 full-service sites with water, electric, and sanitary dump facilities. "We have a 42 ft 5th wheel toy hauler. A few Big Rig spots are available, but this is a Suffolk Co Campground that is not well maintained," noted one camper about site conditions in the region. Black Bear RV Park features 74 pull-through RV pads with 50-amp service, while Croton Point Park has graded sites with 30-amp hookups and water connections.

Most area RV sites require reservations, especially during peak fall foliage season from September through October. Road conditions approaching Beaver Pond Campground and Black Bear RV Park include elevation changes and occasional tight turns that may challenge larger motorhome maneuverability. According to a visitor, "The dump station is basically not accessible to a big rig" at some parks, suggesting travelers with larger RVs should plan accordingly. Cell service varies considerably throughout the region, with stronger coverage at Croton Point Park and limited connectivity in more remote campgrounds. Pets are permitted at most facilities, though restrictions apply at certain locations like Skyline RV Camp where generator use is prohibited.

    Blydenburgh County Park

    Big Rig Camping in Blydenburgh

    We have a 42 ft 5th wheel toy hauler. A few Big Rig spots are available, but this is a Suffock Co Campground that is not well maintained. 2 miles of the Road have many areas of missing blacktop making a very rough ride with low branches. The dump station is basically not accessible to a big rig. Most of the longer sites were very difficult to level.

    Jellystone Park Gardiner

    FAMILY HEAVEN

    This is a HUGE Jellystone park in upstate NY. There are literally hundreds of cabins and RV sites. We are in site 136, which is a back in spot. Plenty of room between campers. Gravel spot which is pretty level. Full hookups. Picnic table, cable, fire ring, large camp store, showers, toilets, and full laundry area. Also has playgrounds, pillow jump, fishing pond, golf carts, game room, Waterpark, pool, and tennis courts. All of this nestled into the mountains. Nice and family friendly.

    Jellystone Park Gardiner

    Chillaxing Getaway

    We stayed at Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Camp-Resort along the Walllkill River in Gardiner, NY, for a four-night chill-out vacation. We’re so glad we did! 

    Our site was called Riverfront Red Carpet. It was spacious, level, waterfront, and partially shaded thanks to some mature trees. Site#22 included a large concrete pad, picnic table, charcoal grill, and large fire ring. Everything was in great condition. It was nice having plenty of space to not be on top of our neighbors. We had full hookups with 50-amp electrical service- which all worked fine. 

    The entire park seemed to be well maintained and clean. There’s a small waterpark which seemed good for younger kids, an eatery, and ice cream shop. The camp store was well-stocked with food, camping supplies, and souvenirs. There is a game room and multiple bath houses(which we didn’t use). The park’s roadways are all paved and easy to navigate. Despite being nearly filled to capacity including tons of young children, the park was quiet each night with no noisy ‘bad campers.’ 

    We found our interactions with the staff to be helpful and attentive. We really appreciate friendly staff. 

    Overall, this was a great stay at a great RV park. I’d only mention two negatives, neither was a big deal. It took 45-minutes to check-in. In fairness, we arrived at check-in time(3:00 PM) on a Sunday. There were a dozen other RVs checking in at the same time and they just weren’t equipped for that. Also, our Verizon cell service was practically non-existent and the park’s wifi service was just as horrible. If we needed connectivity, this would have been a major problem. I reduced a star in my review simply because it’s 2021 and wifi has become an expectation. 

    We booked on campspot.com and paid$196 per night+$35 to lock our site+$2 booking fee less a 20% promo discount.

    Mahlon Dickerson Reservation

    Nice, small, spacious campground

    We stayed at site 15 for 5 days. The sites are nicely wooded, very well spaced, fairly level with 50A service and water hookup. Although the water spigots were shared between sites, they provide hose caddies that should reach most RV hookups. No sewer hookup, but there is a convenient dump station. There are no fire rings in the RV section, only raised grills. We had the place pretty much to ourselves during the week, but the weekend did get busy. AT&T had ok data connection with 1-2 bars most of the time. There is no satellite coverage due to the heavy tree canopy. OTA TV was very inconsistent using an external omni antenna. There is no WiFi. There is a very nice network of trails in the reservation, most if not all were leashed dog friendly. There is a very nice restaurant, Stone Water, less than 10 miles away and is right on lake Hopatcong.

    Jellystone Park Gardiner

    #bigfunfamily approved

    We threatened a Jellystone stop for years, and finally made it happen. Great place for kids and staff runs a great park. Its crowded, loud and in constant movement but as expected. Sites here are pretty spread out and it’s big rig friendly with some level concrete pads which is a huge bonus. Park is doing a great job with COVID in the common areas. Not our normal type spot but definitely worth it to break up our 2 month road trip. Safe travels all!

    Great Late Fall Weekend Cabin

    This was a last-minute booking for us and we were delighted with the beachside cottage, with enough amenities that mom and dad did not worry we had their cutie with us for "camping". She's too little for backpacking into the woods but finally got to stay overnight and help with the campfire!

    Beaver Pond Campground — Harriman State Park

    Quiet, off-season, mid-week retreat

    We stayed here on a Thursday night in September prior to taking off backpacking. The campground was clean and quiet. RV hook-ups, tent platforms, and rustic tent sites were available. Our rustic tent site had a few good options for pitching a tent, as well as picnic table and fire ring.

    Ranger said that during summer weekends the grounds fill up and can be quite noisy, but mid-week during the off-season it was great. Expect to purchase firewood, although scrounging for kindling was possible. Facilities were clean and what you'd expect from a campground.

    Would definitely return!!

    Mahlon Dickerson Reservation

    Great little campground

    Mahlon Dickerson Campground is a true gem. It is a small campground nestled in the woods. There are level padded sites with electric and water (in warmer months). Sites were spaced out with beautiful woods in the background. Hiking trail goes right through the campground. There is a bathroom with showers that is heated in the colder months. There is a water spigot at the bathrooms to fill up your water tanks. Dump station also on site. Each site has a nice picnic table and fire ring. I really enjoyed this campground and would go back again.


Guide to White Plains

RV parks near White Plains, New York offer various accommodations for campers seeking outdoor recreation in the Hudson Valley region. The area features forested campgrounds set within hills rising 400-800 feet above sea level, with numerous lakes and reservoirs scattered throughout. Average summer temperatures range from 70-85°F, with lower humidity compared to New York City, making camping comfortable during peak season.

What to do

Hiking trails: Clarence Fahnestock State Park Campground connects to multiple trail networks, including access to a 1.5-mile Pelton Pond loop. "There are plenty of nice hikes. Super fun. The camp areas were secluded if you wanted more private camping but there were plenty if you needed a quick stop over," notes Erinn N.

Swimming access: Croton Point Park provides Hudson River access with seasonal beach areas. "We stayed in site 9. The site was very loud (dance music) until after 11pm. Quiet time at 10pm. Great site for a party," advises Jonathan C. The park restricts swimming to buoyed areas when lifeguards are present.

Fall activities: Several campgrounds position campers near apple orchards and pumpkin patches during autumn. "We make a habit of going during the end-of-summer/fall when you can watch the leaves change along the hiking trails, go apple and pumpkin picking near the campsites, and eat some scrumptious apple cinnamon doughnuts and drink pumpkin hot chocolate," shares a visitor to Fahnestock State Park.

What campers like

Transit options: Liberty Harbor RV Park provides urban camping with public transportation nearby. "The light rail is a block away, and the path train is about 8. Jersey city has a lot of restaurants and bars walking distance," explains Karen S. The ferry service runs directly to Manhattan, making day trips convenient.

Privacy levels: Mahlon Dickerson Reservation offers secluded sites on large wooded lots. "Our site is easily the nicest- all the way in the back with only one neighbor. It is so quiet here. 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," reports Greg S.

Off-season access: Many rv parks near White Plains remain operational into late autumn. At Clarence Fahnestock, "The beach is closed after Labor Day to the public, but open to people staying at the campsite. Clean and beautiful. Great hikes," mentions Courtney D., noting that campers receive special access after the general public season ends.

What you should know

Wildlife encounters: Bears frequent several campgrounds in the region. At Beaver Pond Campground, "Welcome to Bear Mountain" grumbles the park ranger as he sits in complete darkness! He is in his ranger hut, checking in the late evening arrivals to the campground... He offers us a highlighted map to our site, wishes us a good stay, and gives us the run down on bear activity in the area," shares Steve W.

Noise considerations: Campgrounds closer to urban areas experience significant ambient noise. At Croton Point Park, "Only down side is there is a train depot right outside and you can hear them shunting trains all night," reports Andrew A.

Reservation timing: Many White Plains area rv parks fill quickly during summer and fall seasons. Sites at Beaver Pond are in high demand: "Ranger said that during summer weekends the grounds fill up and can be quite noisy, but mid-week during the off-season it was great," notes Rebecca S.

Tips for camping with families

Animal encounters: Several campgrounds feature farm animals or wildlife viewing areas. At Pleasant Acres Farm RV Resort, "The farm has goats, a donkey, and a pony within the campground. Very cool," according to Faith D. Children particularly enjoy these encounters.

Platform tent sites: Some campgrounds provide raised platforms for tents, beneficial during wet weather. "They have these 12x12 platforms to put your tent on. This was pretty cool especially since some of the sites are all gravel with surrounding dirt," explains Christina L. at Mahlon Dickerson Reservation.

Playground access: Several facilities include play areas for children. At Beaver Pond Campground, a visitor notes, "Great location and quick to get to from NYC. 45 minute drive and location has a lot of amenities. Full bathrooms and slop sinks throughout the campsite... Hike trails are all over the place and the lake is nearby."

Tips from RVers

Older facilities: Many rv parks near White Plains have aging infrastructure. At Skyline RV Camp, "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," reports arlene S.

Urban parking challenges: Liberty Harbor RV Park positions rigs tightly in limited space. "This is all about location. The closest RV park to NYC. It's basically a parking lot with a dump station. Not much else. Pick one of the larger end row sites to get a little extra elbow room. If it's packed, your neighbor with be within inches of your rig," advises Keith and Tia S.

Water hookup distances: Water connections may require additional equipment. 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," explains one camper.
