Mountain View Campground

During COVID, many state parks are requiring 48 hr advance reservations, which limits overnight stays for those of us driving a long distance and wanting to improvise along the way. I called here late in the afternoon and he said he could give me a space in the field. I arrived at dusk and set up. The field is deceivingly sloping so I did require blocks on one side. Had water and electric. The host was courteous; they have some sheep and goats on the property. Did not actually make it into the main campground area but preferred the open space in the field! it was a Saturday night and quiet. Visit their website to see the driving instructions — it's back in the country with some low bridges and sharp turns. No problems with my 25' motorhome. About 5 miles from the interstate so fun to see a local NJ neighborhood.

I don't feel very qualified to give this a clear rating but wanted to at least share my experience. Calling their office at 7pm they confirmed they had a site available in the field. Knowing we were in a motor home, he explained that Exit 12 directions on their website were imperative because there is a low bridge off of Exit 11 which is how GPS wanted to bring us. It is quiet and neatly kept although we didn’t walk around the whole area. To dump would have cost an extra $30 so don't arrive full expecting the dump is included in your camping fee ($40).

About 6 miles from I-78, use exit 12 to avoid a low bridge. We called and received good directions, signage is minimal. For me accessing with a 39ft motorhome, car on tow dolly was challenging but doable, for an afternoon arrival.
This is a no frills campground, water and electric at site, only a few 50amp pull thrus. No WiFi, no cable.Plenty of trees, other than an open playground area. Very private site, there was some gravel. but not long enough to put down our landing gear. Owner brought over wooden blocks, told us we could even take them when we leave.

Price shown is for a 50amp site, variable pricing to use dump station. One night at least $20, two nights $15, three nights $10. Four or more, no cost.
