Campgrounds near Matamoras, Pennsylvania
Matamoras sits at the northeastern tip of Pennsylvania where the state meets New York and New Jersey along the Delaware River. It is the easternmost municipality of any kind in Pennsylvania. The borough has long served as a launch point for rafting, canoeing, and kayaking on the Upper Delaware, and it works well as a base for RV travelers exploring the river corridor, the Pocono foothills, and nearby state forests in New Jersey.
Campground options range from full-hookup RV parks in town to riverside sites and forested state land within a short drive. Tri-State RV Park sits closest to Matamoras with reservable RV sites, while River Beach Campsites on the Delaware-Kittatinny Canoes pairs camping with paddling access on the river. Sun Retreats Pleasant Acres Farm offers a family-oriented resort setting, KOA Holiday Deerpark New York City provides amenity-heavy sites on the New York side, and Stream Mill Area in Stokes State Forest gives access to rustic forested camping across the border in New Jersey.
Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area contains 70,000 acres along the middle section of the Delaware River in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, stretching northward to the tristate border.
Things to do near Matamoras
The Delaware River is the main draw. Self-guided river trips serve families, beginners, and experienced paddlers, and tubing, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing for smallmouth bass are all standard on this stretch of the Upper Delaware.
On land, hikers can access the Appalachian Trail and visit the three-tiered Raymondskill Falls, the tallest waterfall in Pennsylvania, located within the national recreation area near Milford. Public river beaches in the corridor offer picnic areas and swimming when lifeguards are on duty.
Families often add stops at Bushkill Falls, Grey Towers National Historic Site in Milford, and High Point State Park in New Jersey, home to the highest elevation in the state. Cyclists use rail-trails through Orange County, New York, and anglers fish trout streams in the surrounding hills.

The camping season centers on late spring through mid-fall. Private RV parks near town typically operate from early April through late October, while state forest and national recreation area sites follow park-agency schedules, with some year-round availability at certain New Jersey sites.
Summer brings warm, humid days and the busiest river traffic. Campers should prepare for frequent afternoon thunderstorms that can temporarily raise water levels on the Delaware. July and August fill quickly at family-oriented resorts, and holiday weekends book out well ahead of arrival.
Fall is drier and cooler, with peak foliage typically arriving in mid to late October across the Poconos and Kittatinny Ridge. Winter closes most tent and rustic sites, though a limited number of full-hookup RV parks stay open with water systems winterized. Spring shoulder season offers quieter sites and strong river flows, though nights can drop near freezing into April. In Stokes State Forest, several access roads close seasonally from December 15 through April 15, or when conditions are hazardous.
How to book campgrounds near Matamoras
Reservation systems vary by operator. Private parks such as Tri-State RV Park, Sun Retreats Pleasant Acres Farm, and KOA Holiday Deerpark New York City take bookings directly through their own websites or booking platforms, usually with instant confirmation. River Beach Campsites on the Delaware-Kittatinny Canoes bundles camping with paddling trips and is booked through the outfitter.
Reservations are strongly recommended, especially during peak summer weekends and holidays. For state forest camping at the Stream Mill Area in Stokes State Forest, sites are reserved through the New Jersey state parks portal, and bookings can be made up to 11 months in advance of the check-in date.
RV renters should confirm site length, hookup type, and slide-out clearance when booking, and check pet, generator, and campfire rules, which differ between private parks, state forests, and the national recreation area.
What to expect on the ground
Terrain in the Matamoras area is a mix of river floodplain and wooded ridges. Roads into private parks near town are generally paved and suitable for larger rigs, while access to Stream Mill Area involves narrower forest roads and tighter turns; the area has 27 sites suitable only for tents or small trailers and campervans, with an artisan well for water and pit toilets. Cell service is reliable in town and along Interstate 84 but drops in the deeper river valleys and forest interior.
Private parks near town typically offer full hookups, Wi-Fi, and other amenities, while national recreation area and state forest sites are more basic. Bears are active in the region, so food storage rules apply at rustic sites. Biting insects peak from late May through July, especially near the river. Firewood should be bought locally to reduce pest spread, and quiet hours are enforced at most family parks.

rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Matamoras,PennsylvaniaDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Matamoras, PA?
A regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Matamoras, PA. Pennsylvania does not require a commercial driver's license (CDL) or any special motorhome endorsement for personal-use RVs, even larger Class A coaches. On RVezy, every approved driver needs to be 25 or older with a valid driver's license, and identity is confirmed right through the platform during booking. Visiting from overseas? Pick up an International Driving Permit (IDP) from your home auto association before you fly in. Most first-timers are surprised how straightforward it is to get behind the wheel for their Matamoras RV trip.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection is included when I rent an RV in Matamoras?
You're covered from the moment you book. Every RV rental in Matamoras, PA on RVezy comes with a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can hit Route 6 or I-84 with real peace of mind. The protection plan covers most damages to the vehicle and provides liability coverage during your trip. RVezy offers multiple protection tiers, and you (not the host) choose your coverage level during checkout, so you can select extra protection for a longer Pocono loop or keep it standard for a quick weekender. It's built specifically for RV rentals and handles the situations most renters worry about.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Matamoras RV rental?
Plans change, and RVezy builds in flexibility so booking feels low-risk. RVezy (not individual hosts) sets the cancellation policy for every RV rental in Matamoras, PA, and there's a money-back grace period right after booking so you can lock in your dates with confidence. After that, what you'll receive back depends on how close you are to your trip start date. If a host cancels on you, RVezy refunds your booking or provides travel credits. Full policy details are available in the RVezy Help Center and in your booking confirmation, so you'll always know exactly where you stand before you confirm.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Matamoras RV trip?
Absolutely, and the tri-state Delaware River area is a dream for dog owners. To find a pet-friendly RV rental in Matamoras, just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy and message the host about your pup's size and breed so check-in goes smoothly. Once you're rolling, the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area allows leashed dogs on most trails, and nearby High Point State Park in New Jersey welcomes leashed pets in day-use areas and at Sawmill Lake Campground. Tri-State RV Park right in Matamoras also accepts pets with some restrictions. Pro tip: pack a long lead and a towel, since the Delaware River shoreline is the highlight of most dogs' trip.
nps.gov/dewa/planyourvisit/pets.htmCan the RV be delivered to a campground near Matamoras?
Yes, and it's the easiest way to start your trip stress-free. Many hosts offering RV delivery in Matamoras will drop the rig directly at Tri-State RV Park, Kittatinny Campgrounds in nearby Barryville/Dingmans Ferry, or Dingmans Campground inside the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, then level it, hook up water and power, and walk you through every system. To find delivery-ready listings, use the Delivery filter on RVezy and check the host's delivery radius and per-mile fee on the listing page. This is especially great if it's your first time renting an RV or if you're flying into Newark or Stewart International and don't want to tow anything.
dingmanscampground.com/How far can I drive on a Matamoras RV trip, and is unlimited mileage available?
You've got plenty of road ahead of you. Most RVezy hosts in Matamoras include between 100 and 150 free miles per night, and many offer add-on mileage packages or even RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is perfect if you're planning a longer RV road trip from Matamoras. From here it's about 80 miles to New York City, 95 miles to Philadelphia, 130 miles to the Catskills high peaks, and roughly 250 miles to Niagara Falls. The mileage policy is listed clearly on every RVezy listing, so check it before you book and message the host if you want to negotiate extra miles for a bigger loop.
fhwa.dot.gov/Where are the best campgrounds near Matamoras, PA?
You're spoiled for choice, since Matamoras sits at the meeting point of Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey. Top picks for RV camping in Matamoras include Tri-State RV Park (year-round, full hookups, close to the Delaware River), Kittatinny Campgrounds along the Delaware (riverside sites with paddling outfitters on site), Dingmans Campground inside the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, Sawmill Lake Campground in High Point State Park just across the New Jersey line, and the Black Bear Campground area in New York about 30 minutes north. Pro tip: the Delaware Water Gap sites book out by April for summer weekends, so reserve early or aim for a Sunday-to-Thursday stay.
nps.gov/dewa/planyourvisit/campgrounds.htmWhen is the best time of year to rent an RV in Matamoras?
Matamoras offers four great seasons, with fall standing out as truly spectacular. Late September through mid-October brings the Pocono and Catskill foliage colors, with crisp 50 to 65°F days that are ideal for hiking and campfires. Summer (June through August) averages highs in the upper 70s to mid 80s°F with warm river swimming, though spring and early summer can be rainy so pack rain gear. Spring (May) is quieter and full of waterfalls in the Delaware Water Gap. Winter dips into the 20s and 30s°F with snow, but a winterized rig with heated tanks turns the area into a snowshoeing wonderland. Book your motorhome rental Matamoras stay six to eight weeks ahead for peak foliage weekends.
weather.gov/ctp/I've never driven an RV before. Will I be okay?
You'll be just fine, and Matamoras is actually one of the friendlier places in the Northeast to learn. Every RVezy host gives you a full pickup walkthrough covering driving, leveling, propane, water, the toilet, and the awning, plus most leave a printed cheat sheet in the rig. For first time renting an RV, ask the host to demo backing into a site and dumping tanks. From Matamoras, I-84 east and US-6 west give you wide lanes and gentle grades to find your sea legs before tackling the twistier Route 209 through the Delaware Water Gap. Many hosts also offer delivery and setup, so you can skip highway driving entirely on your first trip.
nhtsa.gov/road-safety/recreational-vehicle-rv-safetyWhat if I have a breakdown or problem on the road?
You're never on your own. Every RV rental in Matamoras, PA on RVezy includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, so a flat tire on I-84, a dead battery at Milford Beach, or a propane issue at Dingmans Campground is one phone call away from being handled. RVezy's customer support team is also available before, during, and after your trip, and your host's contact details are right in the app for quick questions about quirks specific to their rig. Pro tip: snap a photo of the RV's VIN and license plate at pickup so roadside technicians can dispatch the right parts faster if you need them.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Matamoras RV rental into New York or New Jersey?
Yes, and you'd be missing half the fun if you didn't. Matamoras sits right on the tri-state border, so most RVezy hosts welcome interstate travel into New York and New Jersey, which means the Catskills, the Hudson Valley, Lake George, and the Jersey Shore are all fair game. Popular loops include Matamoras to Cooperstown (about 150 miles), Matamoras to Lake George (about 220 miles), and Matamoras down to Cape May (about 200 miles). Travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals, and cross-border trips into Canada require host approval, so message the host before booking if Montreal or Toronto is on your wish list.
rvezy.com/What should I budget for fuel on a Matamoras RV trip?
Fuel is usually the biggest variable, but it's predictable once you do the math. Class C motorhomes in the Matamoras area average 8 to 10 miles per gallon, Class B campervans get 16 to 20, and a truck-and-travel-trailer combo lands around 10 to 12 MPG. Pennsylvania gas prices typically run a bit higher than neighboring states, so for a campervan rental Matamoras road trip, cross the bridge and fill up in Port Jervis, NY or Montague, NJ to save 20 to 40 cents per gallon. For a typical 4-night, 400-mile loop in a Class C, budget around $180 to $230 in fuel. The Pilot Travel Center off I-84 Exit 53 is the easiest big-rig fill-up in town.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book campgrounds near Matamoras?
Earlier is better, but you're not locked out if you're a late planner. For Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area sites like Dingmans Campground, reservations can be made well in advance on Recreation.gov and summer weekends fill quickly. High Point State Park and Stokes State Forest in New Jersey use the state's ReserveAmerica-powered system and also book up months out for July and August. Tri-State RV Park right in Matamoras is a reliable safety net. Pro tip: for the popular October foliage weekends, lock in your campsite by early summer, then book your RV rental in Matamoras, PA on RVezy right after.
recreation.gov/What are the driving conditions like around Matamoras?
Mostly very manageable, with a few stretches worth knowing about. I-84 and US-6/209 through Matamoras are wide, well-maintained, and RV-friendly with truck-rated grades. The scenic Route 209 south through the Delaware Water Gap is narrower and twistier with a 45 MPH limit, so take it slow and use pullouts to let cars pass. Winter (December through March) brings real snow and occasional ice, so if you book a Matamoras RV trip in those months, ask the host about snow tires and stick to plowed routes. Watch for white-tailed deer at dawn and dusk year-round, especially on Route 6 between Matamoras and Milford. Most days, you'll be cruising worry-free.
511pa.com/What amenities do campgrounds near Matamoras offer?
Most local campgrounds are full-service, which makes RV life easy. Tri-State RV Park offers full hookups (water, 30/50-amp electric, sewer), a dump station, laundry, and clean restrooms with showers, with sites accommodating big rigs up to 50 feet. Kittatinny Campground in Milford has water and electric sites plus a dump station and a camp store. Dingmans Campground inside Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area provides water spigots and a dump station but no individual hookups, so come with full tanks. Where to fill up: the Pilot Travel Center on Pennsylvania Avenue in Matamoras has potable water, and most campgrounds offer free dumping for registered guests. Pro tip: top off fresh water in town before heading into the Water Gap.
nps.gov/dewa/planyourvisit/dingmans-campground.htmWhat's inside a typical RV you'd rent in Matamoras?
More comfort than you'd expect. A typical RV rental in Matamoras, PA sleeps four to eight people across a queen bed, bunk beds, and a convertible dinette, with a full kitchen (fridge, three-burner stove, microwave, sink), a wet or dry bathroom with toilet and shower, climate control via roof A/C and propane furnace, and seatbelted seating for travel. Most rigs include a TV, Bluetooth stereo, and outdoor speakers, and many hosts add a generator, solar panels, or a Wi-Fi hotspot as optional add-ons. Every listing on RVezy shows photos and a full amenities checklist, so you'll know exactly what's onboard. Pro tip: ask the host about a starter kit with linens, dishes, and a campfire kit for an extra-easy first night.
nhtsa.gov/road-safety/recreational-vehicle-rv-safetyWhat add-ons and pickup options should I know about?
You can customize your trip in a few clicks. Popular RVezy add-ons in the Matamoras area include generators, bedding and kitchen kits, bike racks, outdoor grills, propane refills, and paddleboards or kayaks (perfect for the Delaware River). Pickup is usually at the host's home in Matamoras, Milford, or Port Jervis, with most check-ins in the afternoon and check-outs by late morning. Many hosts offer RV delivery in Matamoras to your campground for a flat fee plus per-mile cost. Mileage policies are clearly listed on each RVezy listing, ranging from around 100 free miles per night up to unlimited mileage. Just message the host if you want a custom package.
rvezy.com/How do payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
It's all simple and handled in the app. When you book an RV rental in Matamoras, PA on RVezy, you pay securely through the platform with a credit or debit card, never directly to the host. A refundable security deposit (typically $500 to $1,500 depending on the rig) is held separately from your booking payment and released after the host confirms the RV came back in good shape, usually within a few days of drop-off. To keep things smooth: do a video walkaround with the host at pickup and drop-off, return the rig with the same fuel and propane levels, and dump tanks before you head home (or pay the host's dump fee).
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksWhat's a great first family RV trip from Matamoras?
You're in one of the best launchpads in the Northeast. A perfect family RV trip Matamoras itinerary: night one at Tri-State RV Park to get comfortable with the rig, night two at Dingmans Campground inside the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (don't miss Dingmans Falls, a 0.4-mile boardwalk to a 130-foot waterfall), night three at Sawmill Lake in High Point State Park for the panoramic monument views, and night four at Kittatinny Campground for tubing or rafting the Delaware River. Total loop: under 80 miles, all kid-friendly. Insider tip: stop at Apple Valley Restaurant in Milford for breakfast and the Hot Diggity Dog Drive-In on Pennsylvania Avenue for old-school burgers. Easy memories, all within an hour of your pickup.
