Campgrounds near Montrose, NY
Montrose sits on the east bank of the Hudson River in northern Westchester County, roughly an hour north of New York City. The location puts RV renters within easy reach of several Lower Hudson Valley and Hudson Highlands parks, from busy state-park campgrounds to family-run lakeside parks and full-hookup private resorts.
Beaver Pond Campground sits inside Harriman State Park, New York's second-largest state park, which spans roughly 48,000 acres in Rockland and Orange counties and includes 31 lakes and more than 200 miles of trails. Pelton Pond is the campground area inside Clarence Fahnestock Memorial State Park, a Hudson Highlands preserve covering land in Putnam and Dutchess counties. Both offer wooded, primitive-style sites with fire rings and picnic tables but no electric hookups.
For full hookups, New York City North / Newburgh KOA Holiday runs wooded and open RV sites with 30/50-amp service and cabins. Sylvan Lake Beach Park Inc in Hopewell Junction is a family-run 65-acre wooded campground with a private beach, rustic tent sites, and full-hookup RV sites. Camp Wyanokie, across the New Jersey line, is a rustic hike-in group camp better suited to tent groups than to RVs.
Things to do near Montrose
Hiking is the headline activity. Harriman State Park is laced with more than 200 miles of trails maintained by volunteers with the New York-New Jersey Trail Conference, and a section of the Appalachian Trail crosses Clarence Fahnestock, giving campers direct access without long drives.
Swimming and paddling are easy add-ons. Lake Welch Beach sits next to Beaver Pond Campground and allows swimming when lifeguards are on duty. Canopus Lake at Fahnestock has a sandy beach, and rowboats and kayaks can be rented on site during the summer season. Sylvan Lake permits swimming, kayaking, and non-motorized boating from its private beach.
Rainy-day and family options include West Point, Hudson River cruises out of Newburgh, and the pools and organized activities at the Newburgh KOA.

The main camping window in this part of the Hudson Valley runs from mid-spring through mid-fall. Beaver Pond Campground typically opens in April and its last night of camping is the Sunday of Columbus Day Weekend. Pelton Pond at Fahnestock has historically run on a mid-May to mid-October pattern for its numbered sites, but the campground is currently closed for a full-season rebuild of the bathhouse and restroom facility, so RV renters should verify current-year status with New York State Parks before booking. The park's Group Wilderness Campground remains available by calling the park office.
Summer is peak. Weekends fill fast at Harriman because of the proximity to New York City, and holiday weekends at Sylvan Lake and the Newburgh KOA book out well ahead. Bugs and humidity peak in July and August.
Early fall is prime time. September and October bring cooler nights, fewer insects, and Hudson Highlands foliage, though weekends still book heavily. Winter camping options in the immediate area are limited, though Fahnestock Winter Park grooms cross-country ski and snowshoe trails when snow allows.

Here’s the updated version with the host included: RV Trip Review We just got back from our trip and had a great experience with this RV. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and ran really well throughout the entire trip. It had plenty of space for the family and made traveling together easy and enjoyable. Everything worked as expected, and we felt comfortable and confident on the road. The host was also incredibly supportive, friendly, and easy to communicate with. They made the whole rental experience smooth and stress-free. It was a great RV for a family trip(5 people), and we would definitely rent from this host again!

How to book campgrounds near Montrose
New York state-park campgrounds, including Beaver Pond and Pelton Pond, are booked through the ReserveAmerica system for New York State Parks, online or by phone at 1-800-456-2267. Reservations open on a rolling nine-month window. During peak season (March 15 through Labor Day) sites become available at 8 a.m. weekdays and 9 a.m. weekends; outside that window, both are 9 a.m. Same-day reservations are allowed until 3 p.m., and walk-ins are permitted only on campsites.
New York City North / Newburgh KOA Holiday is booked directly through KOA's website or app, with cabin, tent, and RV site categories priced and cancelled separately. Sylvan Lake Beach Park takes reservations directly by phone or through its website. For any summer weekend or holiday, book as far ahead as possible, and confirm rig-length limits: Beaver Pond caps trailers and RVs at 30 feet, and Pelton Pond at 40 feet.
What to expect on the ground
State-park sites here are rustic. Beaver Pond has no electric hookups, no pets, and no alcohol; each site has a picnic table and a fire ring with a flip-top grill, and comfort stations, showers, laundry, and a dump station are on the grounds. It is a carry-in, carry-out facility. Pelton Pond similarly has no hookups and no dump station in the campground loops, with picnic tables, charcoal grills, fire rings, and centrally located restrooms and showers. Both parks are active bear habitat, so food and trash must be stored properly.
Quiet hours at Beaver Pond run from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m., and generators are limited to 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Weekends draw large family groups from the metro area, so mid-week stays are noticeably quieter.
The Newburgh KOA and Sylvan Lake are the practical picks for larger rigs, families needing hookups, or campers with dogs.
