Are people allowed to camp in a tent in a state park?
Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can go camping around NY/NJ area around October? This is my first time. I'd like somewhere where I can go boating as well.
Answer
There is certainly some tent camping available. I recommend that you check out this website for New York:
http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/7825.html
You can see what amenities each campground has.
This site gives similar info for New Jersey:
http://www.state.nj.us/dep/parksandforests/parks/camping.html
By the way, I have never camped in either state. A good way of finding this kind of information is to go to Google and type the name of the state, "dnr" (department of natural resources) and "camping".

Camping Suggestions ... NJ/PA/MD/WV/NY?

I would like to get one last camping trip in this year, towards the end of October.
Any suggestions or recommendations of places where it won't be too terribly cold at night?
I am in New Jersey, boyfriend is in PA (near Harrisburg). We're looking for a weekend so no more than maybe 3-4hrs away so that would be much of PA & MD, all of NJ, parts of NY, and the easter part of WV.
I appreciate it.
We have tent & gear but would consider one of those cabin rentals in order to not freeze.
THANKS!!

oh...awesome! i'm from the tri-state (PA MD WV) area and there is some really wodnerful camping in that area.
of course, anywhere you set up on the appalachain trail is nice, however, i prefer camping in a tent with a nearby indoor plumbing source:) i like to rough it, but not too much!
my favorite place, hands down, is called rocky gap.

there are individual campsites with table and fire pit and you can use your tent and your car can back right up to it! OR you can rent mini cabins.....
there are sites right by the lake, so you wake up and cook breakfast while you're looking out at the water...it's sooo nice!
i think last time we went it was end of september, early october and it was cool, but nothing some heavy blankets and sweatshirts can't handle...especially with as warm as the weather has been lately.
so, there's rocky gap....highly recommended.
also, i can recommend lots of camping around the state college, PA and altoona, PA areas!
whipple dam is great place to camp, but we camped there very off trail and so, i'm not too familiar with the main areas. we pretty much drove and found a clearing, parked the car and walked until we found space to pitch the tent!
however, it's beautiful and can make a GREAT vacation. oh, and if you plan it right...maybe catch a PSU football game that weekend!!!!

have fun!
P.S.
both of these locales are not too far from harrisburg....now, NJ is another story, but you can take 81 from harrisburg either way and get close to these places:)
