1 night at The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Our stay at site #1 in our teardrop camper was seamless. The site is perfectly flat and the power source very convenient. Eric greeted us on arrival, and then we enjoyed a very nice walk on the trail behind the barn. Friendly horses, beautiful setting, everything well marked - these folks know hospitality!

Weekend Trip to 33 Acre Farm And Retreat

We had a great stay! The fields were still wet but Brendan was very accommodating! Brendan was a great host, he gave us a tour of his property and all of the history regarding the area! We can’t wait to return to try out the field!

Weekend Trip to Paradise Valley Homestead

It is a place where you can leave the city and enjoy nature.

Weekend Trip to Paradise Valley Homestead

Always love camping here! Kathleen is extremely friendly and helpful and the site is always beautiful and well-maintained. Nice play area with lots of toys for my toddlers, lovely little hikes around the site -- no need to leave!

Weekend Trip to Paradise Valley Homestead

This was my first time camping. I really loved camping at Kathy's, the directions and instructions were very clear for the campsite. Peaceful place with beautiful waterfalls very nearby and I am going to come back soon ❤️ Thank you Kathy

Weekend Trip to Paradise Valley Homestead

An amazing campsite/property and Kathleen is an exceptional host. Easy across the board and exactly what we were hoping for.

Weekend Trip to Paradise Valley Homestead

Once again we had an incredible time visiting this location! It’s great to see how they are improving each and every time we visit!

1 night at Skyline RV Camp BK - Standard

Parking lot in the best area in Brooklyn (Maybe all of NYC?). Absolutely loved the area and vibe. Felt very safe. No bathrooms or showers** there is a public bathroom ~3 minute walk away open 8-4 otherwise you gotta figure it out!

Weekend Trip to 20 acre fallow farm 10 acres forest

Nice quiet spot, close to great hikes and a brewery. Nice views of the fields. Will come back!

Weekend Trip to The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Great site and a nice getaway from the city. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Beautiful site, easy to access, a little windy but it’s worth it for the wide open view of the sky

1 night at The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Really loved it, so we decided to stay there another day.

1 night at Paradise Valley Homestead

It was very nice and convenient stayinf on Kathy’s land. There were plenty of campsites and wood was available on site. I would stay there again.

1 night at The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Wonderful spot. Beautiful even in stick season! Spot was very easy to find. Land is lovely and so are the friendly horses. Had a great night. Will totally come back.

1 night at The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Honestly was pretty surprised how good this was for $30 a night. Don't get me wrong, these are primitive tent/RV sites so no electric or toilet access or anything, but it's behind a beautiful restored bed and breakfast, there are horses and stuff, walking trails behind. The sites themselves are clearly marked with lit up markers and are in a beautiful country field. I booked this with like a 2 hour notice and was able to just come in, set up, sleep, and leave the next morning. Quick responses from the owner with questions, too.

2 nights at The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Wonderfull place. It is very quiet. There is a trail, an old railroad track, that you can walk a long way. Will come back for sure, if we come this way.

Weekend Trip to The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Always well kept grounds. Loved star gazing. Will be back to hike the trails there.

Weekend Trip to Paradise Valley Homestead

Can't wait to go back! The grounds were great and well labeled. Accurate description of the site. There is a dirt road leading to the site. Our host greeted us and explained the trails on the property. We did the waterfall hike and pond, we saw a river otter. The host was so friendly and helpful. The bathroom was clean and well maintained. Our dog loved all the smells of the woods.

2 nights at The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Great campsite, Eric is very friendly and even came out to make sure the ground wasn't too soft. Isn't the most private campsite as you don't have tree cover but still quite and peaceful. The horses were beautiful to see and the surrounding towns and hikes are well worth it.

Weekend Trip to The Dominion House Farm and Trails

I was very happy and pleased everything was as described we had a great time

Paradise Valley Homestead

12 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents33 acres · Oak Ridge, NJ

Always working on improvements! My second glamping site "The Medieval Encampment", is available for booking starting April 1st of 2025. I will have more pictures soon. In April of 2024, my long awaited 1st Glamping site was available for booking. It's been very popular! Please read the description carefully of the "Gypsy Rose Vardo", to see if it's the right fit for you. I also have 10 large camping sites available on our 33 acre property located in Northwest NJ. Sites 1 through 4 are on mowed, fairly level fields and are large enough for campers or RV's up to 30ft, or a couple of tents, and sites 5 and 6 are further back in the woods, available only for a few small tents, sites 7 through 10 are much further into the property and are only accessible with a high clearance AWD or 4WD SUV or you can park and hike your gear in. There are 3 compost toilet outhouses spread out through the property, so it's an easy walking distance from any site. Although we are only 2 1/2 miles from a main highway, the last 2 miles are on a dirt road with no houses. We are surrounded by protected land, so no neighbors and lots of wildlife, including the occasional bear, coyote or raccoon. Keep all food items secured. Because we are surrounded by protected land we are not sprayed for insects, so be safe and do tick checks often and bring the bug spray. We are 45 minutes from NYC or the Delaware Water Gap and an hour away from the NJ shore. There are horse farms nearby that offer trail rides. We are also close to the Highland and Appalachian Hiking trails. There are two reservoirs within a 20-minute drive for canoeing or kayaking. There are walking trails through our property, including a ten-minute hike on a marked trail to a small waterfall in a ravine.

RV camping in New York City guide

Overview

Nothing screams summer quite like an RV road trip. A campsite with a grill and picnic area offers everything you'll need for your getaway—minus the barbecue food of your choosing. Grab a friend or pack up the whole family for a vacation to the Catskills, Hudson Valley, or Western Pennsylvania. You won't have to be cramped in the car for long. Not far from New York City, RV campgrounds come with sprawling views of not-so-distant mountains, vibrant sunsets, and a rotating variety of regional birds. In fall, you’ll want to break out your binoculars for a different reason—a stay in a colorful state park like Tobyhanna State Park or Lake Taghkanic is primed for leaf peeping. The autumn scenery surrounding New York City rivals that of New England, with beech, birch, and maple trees serving as the region's version of skyscrapers.
