Camping near Ogdensburg, New Jersey
Ogdensburg sits in northern Sussex County within New Jersey's Highlands region, a rural area of forested ridges, glacial lakes, and small farming towns roughly an hour and a half from New York City. The borough itself is compact, but it functions as a practical base for RV trips into the Kittatinny Mountains, the Wallkill River valley, and the state parks and forests that ring the area.
Campground options within a short drive cover both private resorts and public land. Kymers Camping Resort sits on 200 scenic acres in the Kittatinny Mountains, and Panther Lake Camping Resort is nestled in 160 wooded acres featuring a 45 acre lake, both operating as full-service family RV parks. The Great Divide Campground, LLC and Sun Retreats Pleasant Acres Farm add more RV-friendly private choices, while Wawayanda State Park provides rustic group sites inside a large state park with lake access and trails.
Roads leading in are mostly two-lane state routes like 15, 23, and 517, which keep travel manageable for larger rigs but include some rolling grades typical of the Highlands.
Things to do near Ogdensburg
The area is built around outdoor recreation. Wawayanda State Park consists of over 60 miles of well-marked trails in addition to a 19.6 mile section of the Appalachian Trail, along with Wawayanda Lake for swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and fishing. Nearby Kittatinny Valley State Park and Stokes State Forest add more hiking, mountain biking, and paddling options.
In Ogdensburg itself, the Sterling Hill Mining Museum offers underground tours of a former zinc mine and is well known for its fluorescent mineral collection, an easy rainy-day stop for families.
Private campgrounds fill the gaps with on-site recreation. Kymers Camping Resort provides an Olympic-size heated pool, splash pad, stocked lake, kayak rentals, playground, tennis and basketball courts, and mini golf. Panther Lake Camping Resort centers on a 45 acre lake with sand beach, swimming pool, boat rentals, and fishing ponds.

The Ogdensburg camping season runs roughly from April through late October, which lines up with when most nearby campgrounds are open. Kymers Camping Resort is open from April 1st through October 31, Panther Lake Camping Resort operates April 15 through October 31, and Wawayanda State Park group campsites are open April 1 to Oct. 31. Outside that window, private grounds close and state park camping is unavailable.
Late spring and early summer bring warm days, blooming trees along the Appalachian Trail corridor, and some of the highest rainfall of the year. July and August are peak family season; sites at private resorts and Wawayanda fill quickly on holiday weekends, and midweek booking is often easier.
September and October are the sweet spot for many RVers: cooler nights, lower bug pressure, and strong fall foliage across the Kittatinny ridges, with color usually peaking from late September through mid-October. Winters are cold and snowy at elevation, and campgrounds are closed.

I accept the charges as followed. However I do not accept charge for 4 days. I only had the vehicle for 3 days. I'd like to dispute the 4th day charged for 250.00

How to book a campsite near Ogdensburg
New Jersey state park sites, including Wawayanda State Park, are reserved through the state's official system. Online reservations can be made at camping.nj.gov, with campsites bookable online up to 11 months in advance. The park has four group sites with picnic tables, fire rings and a composting restroom, these sites require a minimum of seven persons, water is not available at campsites and must be carried from the main office building, and there are no shower facilities, so plan for a rustic stay.
Private campgrounds handle their own reservations. Kymers Camping Resort, Panther Lake Camping Resort, The Great Divide Campground, LLC, and Sun Retreats Pleasant Acres Farm all take bookings directly through their websites or by phone.
Holiday weekends around Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, and the fall foliage and Halloween weekends fill first. Set a reminder near the eleven-month opening for state park sites, and watch private-site cancellations in the two weeks before a busy weekend.
What to expect on the ground
Expect a mix of full-service resort camping and basic public sites. Kymers Camping Resort offers sites with water, electric, cable TV, picnic table, and fire ring, some with sewer, plus a dump station, laundry, and camp store. Panther Lake Camping Resort provides water/electric/cable sites and full hookup options with 30 and 50 amp service. Sun Retreats Pleasant Acres Farm and The Great Divide Campground, LLC provide similar hookup ranges with pools and family programming.
Wawayanda State Park is different: group and walk-in tent sites only, with picnic tables, fire rings, and a composting restroom, no showers, and no RV hookups. Larger motorhomes should use the private grounds and day-trip into the park.
Cell service can be spotty across parts of Panther Lake, with reliable coverage limited to areas near the entrance, pool, and pavilion, and coverage inside Wawayanda is similarly patchy. Black bears are present, so store food, trash, and coolers securely, and watch for deer at dawn and dusk on Route 15, Route 23, and Sparta Mountain Road.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Ogdensburg, NJ
How much does an RV rental in Ogdensburg cost?
RV rental in Ogdensburg is more affordable than you might think, with travel trailers typically starting around $90 to $150 per night, campervans running $125 to $200, and larger Class C motorhomes ranging from $175 to $300 nightly. Because Ogdensburg sits in rural Sussex County rather than a metro hub, you often find better value here than near Newark or NYC. To score a cheap RV rental in Ogdensburg, book midweek, travel in May or October when weather is still great and demand softens, and filter for hosts offering unlimited mileage. Pro tip: bundling delivery to a nearby campground can save you fuel money on your first trip out.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Ogdensburg%2C%20New%20JerseyWhat license do I need to rent an RV in Ogdensburg, NJ?
Good news: a regular Class D driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Ogdensburg, even for a large Class A motorhome. New Jersey explicitly exempts recreational vehicles used for personal travel from any Commercial Driver's License (CDL) requirement, so there's no special endorsement or test involved. You'll just need to be 25 or older, and RVezy will verify your ID right through the platform during booking. Visiting from outside the U.S.? An International Driving Permit (IDP) paired with your home country license does the trick. Most first-time renters are surprised at how straightforward the licensing piece really is.
nj.gov/mvc/vehicles/motorhomes.htmIs my Ogdensburg RV rental protected if something goes wrong?
Peace of mind comes standard. Every RV rental in Ogdensburg booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you are covered for eligible damage to the vehicle and never stranded if you get a flat on Route 23 or break down heading to the Delaware Water Gap. You choose your level of protection during checkout, not the host, so you can match coverage to how adventurous your Sussex County RV trip will be. Review the plan details before you book so you know exactly what is included, then focus on the fun.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Ogdensburg RV trip?
Booking is lower-risk than you might expect. RVezy sets the cancellation policy, not the host, and there is a money-back grace period right after booking so you can lock in your dates with confidence. Beyond that, refund eligibility depends on how far out you cancel and the policy tier shown at checkout. You will see the full policy laid out before you confirm payment, and RVezy support is available before, during, and after your trip if plans change. Go ahead and reserve that Worthington State Forest weekend, flexibility is built in.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Ogdensburg?
Yes, plenty of pups are welcome on Ogdensburg adventures. Use the Pet-Friendly filter when searching for a pet-friendly RV rental in Ogdensburg to instantly see hosts who allow dogs and sometimes cats. For trip planning, confirm pet rules at your chosen campground before you go, since some New Jersey state park campgrounds restrict pets to service animals only. Pet-friendly options near Ogdensburg include Panther Lake Camping Resort in Andover and Cranberry Run Campground in Hardyston. Pack a tie-out, water bowl, and proof of rabies vaccination for a smooth check-in.
dep.nj.gov/parksandforests/state-park/worthington-state-forest/Can the RV be delivered to my campsite in Ogdensburg?
Yes, and it is hands-down the easiest way to start your trip. Many Ogdensburg hosts offer RV delivery to nearby campgrounds like Panther Lake Camping Resort, Cranberry Run Campground, or Worthington State Forest, plus to private driveways and vacation rentals around Sparta, Franklin, and Hardyston. The host shows up, levels the rig, connects hookups, and walks you through everything from the propane to the awning. Use the Delivery filter when browsing, then message the host to confirm distance and fees (most charge per mile beyond a free radius). For a first-time renter, motorhome rental in Ogdensburg with delivery means you skip city driving entirely.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Ogdensburg%2C%20New%20JerseyHow far can I drive on a typical Ogdensburg RV rental?
You've got serious range from Ogdensburg, and many hosts offer generous or unlimited mileage packages. Most listings include 100 to 150 free miles per night, with extra miles around $0.30 to $0.45 each, and an RV rental with unlimited mileage is a great pick for longer hauls. From Ogdensburg you're roughly 25 miles to Delaware Water Gap, 60 miles to NYC, 90 miles to the Jersey Shore at Asbury Park, 130 miles to the Poconos' deepest lakes, and 180 miles to the Finger Lakes. Filter by mileage policy during your search, and message the host if you have a specific route in mind. They often customize.
nps.gov/dewa/index.htmWhere can I camp with my RV near Ogdensburg?
You have plenty of choice for RV camping near Ogdensburg. Top picks include Worthington State Forest (about 25 miles south, riverside sites along the Delaware), Panther Lake Camping Resort in Andover (about 15 miles, full hookups and a swim lake), Cranberry Run Campground in Hardyston (close to town, quiet and wooded), Kittatinny Valley State Park in Andover (about 15 miles, great for cyclists), and Stokes State Forest off Route 206 (about 20 miles, rugged and forested). Reserve New Jersey state park sites through the official NJ State Parks reservation system, which opens bookings several months out. Fall foliage weekends in October book up first, so set a reminder.
newjerseystateparks.reserveamerica.com/When is the best time of year to rent an RV in Ogdensburg?
Late April through mid-October is the sweet spot for an Ogdensburg RV trip, with the peak being late September to mid-October when Sussex County's maple, oak, and birch foliage turns color. Summer highs sit in the low 80s F with cool 60s F nights, and most New Jersey state park campgrounds open in spring and run through late fall. Spring brings blooming dogwoods and trout season; fall delivers crisp hiking weather and apple-picking at nearby Hardyston orchards. Winter rentals are rarer since most campgrounds close, but a few hosts offer cold-weather-prepped rigs for ski trips to Mountain Creek, about 20 minutes away.
weather.gov/phi/I'm a first-time RV renter. Will I actually know how to use it?
You will be totally fine, and that is the beauty of RVezy. First-time renting an RV means your host meets you at pickup (or at your delivery spot) for a hands-on walkthrough covering the generator, water tanks, slide-outs, propane, awning, and dump procedure. You will leave with their contact number and reference notes. Class C motorhomes and travel trailers are the most beginner-friendly options for rent an RV in Ogdensburg trips because they handle predictably. RVezy support is available if anything stumps you mid-trip. Pro tip: do a short shakedown loop on quiet local roads before merging onto Route 15 or Route 23.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/categories/360002053934-For-guestsWhat happens if I break down during my Ogdensburg RV trip?
You are never on your own. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, covering tows, flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, and fuel delivery throughout New Jersey and beyond. Call the number in your booking confirmation and a dispatcher coordinates help, whether you are parked at Worthington State Forest or pulled over on Interstate 80. Your host is also reachable for RV-specific questions like resetting the inverter or troubleshooting the fridge. Cell coverage is generally reliable throughout Sussex County, so getting help is quick.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityCan I take my Ogdensburg rental on a road trip across state lines or into Canada?
Yes, interstate travel is totally normal. An RV road trip from Ogdensburg can easily loop through Pennsylvania (the Poconos are about 30 minutes west), New York (the Catskills are about 90 minutes north), or Vermont and New Hampshire for fall foliage. Cross-border trips to Canada may be allowed depending on the host and the protection plan selected, so message the host before booking to confirm and discuss documentation. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals because coverage does not extend there. Popular multi-state routes from Ogdensburg include the Adirondacks loop and the run up through coastal Maine toward Acadia National Park.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityHow much should I budget for fuel on a Sussex County RV trip?
Fuel is the biggest variable, but it is manageable. Class B campervans typically get 18 to 22 MPG, Class C motorhomes around 8 to 12 MPG, and Class A rigs about 6 to 10 MPG. New Jersey gas prices tend to run near the national average, and attendants pump it for you statewide (no self-serve). For a 200-mile weekend loop from Ogdensburg through Delaware Water Gap and back in a Class C, budget roughly $80 to $120 in gas. Pro tip: fill up along Route 23 in Franklin before heading into the mountains, since prices often climb closer to resort areas like Mountain Creek.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I reserve a campground near Ogdensburg?
For the best campgrounds near Ogdensburg, book as early as you can, ideally 3 to 6 months out for summer weekends and fall foliage dates. New Jersey state parks like Worthington State Forest, Stokes State Forest, and Kittatinny Valley use the official NJ State Parks reservation system, which opens bookings several months ahead and fills fast for prime riverfront sites. Private campgrounds like Panther Lake and Cranberry Run book directly on their websites and tend to have more midweek flexibility. Pro tip: if your dream site is taken, check back often, cancellations roll in regularly, especially in the two weeks before a holiday weekend.
newjerseystateparks.reserveamerica.com/What are the driving conditions like around Ogdensburg?
Driving conditions are friendlier than most New Jersey destinations, since Ogdensburg sits in rural northern Sussex County rather than the congested I-95 corridor. Local roads like Route 23, Route 15, and Route 517 are mostly two-lane and well-maintained, with rolling hills through the Kittatinny region. Watch for tight curves on Sparta Mountain Road and occasional black bear or deer crossings, especially at dawn and dusk. Propane tanks are prohibited in the Holland and Lincoln Tunnels, and the Garden State Parkway has length limits on RV combinations, so plan routes accordingly. Winter brings occasional snow, so most rentals operate April through November.
state.nj.us/transportation/What amenities will I find at Ogdensburg-area campgrounds?
Sussex County campgrounds run from rustic to resort. Worthington State Forest offers picnic tables, fire rings, restrooms, hot showers, and potable water spigots but no hookups, while Panther Lake Camping Resort delivers full water, electric, and sewer hookups plus WiFi and a swimming lake. Most NJ state parks have dump stations on-site (use one before leaving), and you will find fresh water fills at every campground. Cell signal is generally strong in this area, but pack a paper map for the deeper Stokes State Forest sections. Confirm specific amenities directly with the campground when you reserve.
dep.nj.gov/parksandforests/state-park/worthington-state-forest/What's actually inside the RVs I can rent in Ogdensburg?
More than you might expect. A typical campervan rental in Ogdensburg or motorhome includes a queen or king bed, full kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, and sink, indoor bathroom with shower and toilet, dining area, climate control, and seatbelted seating for everyone in your party. Larger Class A and Class C rigs often add a TV, generator, outdoor shower, and bunk beds, ideal for a family RV trip in Ogdensburg. WiFi varies by listing (some hosts include a hotspot, some do not), so check the amenities section. Linens, kitchenware, and basic camping gear are commonly included or available as add-ons. Message the host to confirm anything specific.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Ogdensburg%2C%20New%20JerseyWhat add-ons and pickup details should I know about?
Hosts offer genuinely useful extras to make your Ogdensburg trip smoother. Common add-ons include camping kits (chairs, table, lantern), kitchen kits (pots, plates, utensils), linen packages, generator use, propane fill, bike racks, kayak racks, and pet cleaning fees, typically running $25 to $100 each. Pickup is usually at the host's home in Ogdensburg, Sparta, or Franklin, or via delivery to your campground. Mileage policies range from a set number of free miles per night to unlimited, so compare carefully. Pro tip: ask about bundle pricing when you book multiple add-ons, many hosts offer a small discount when you combine camping and kitchen kits.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Ogdensburg%2C%20New%20JerseyHow does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and secure through the RVezy platform, no off-platform cash or peer-to-peer transfers. You pay the full booking cost (nightly rate, fees, add-ons, taxes) at reservation, and a refundable security deposit is held on your card shortly before pickup. The deposit is released after trip completion, assuming no damage or major cleaning issues. To avoid any hiccups, take a thorough video walkaround at pickup and dropoff, return the rig with the same fuel and propane levels, and dump tanks before returning unless your host offers a dump service add-on.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksWhat's a must-do local experience while I'm in Ogdensburg?
Don't leave without visiting the Sterling Hill Mining Museum, right in Ogdensburg at 30 Plant Street. It features an underground walking tour through a historic zinc mine, a famous fluorescent room where rocks glow under UV light, and outdoor mineral exhibits. Combine it with a day trip to High Point State Park (New Jersey's highest elevation at 1,803 feet, about 25 miles north) for panoramic Pocono and Catskill views. Pro tip: park your RV at the museum lot, which is RV-friendly, then head into nearby Newton for dinner. It is one of the most memorable stops on any Sussex County RV trip.
