Best time to visit Liberty State Park

Late spring through early fall, roughly May to October, offers the most comfortable weather for walking the promenade and taking the ferry across the harbor. Summer brings warm temperatures, festivals, and long daylight hours, but weekends draw heavy crowds and full parking lots, so weekday mornings are easier for RVs. September and October are excellent shoulder months with cooler air, clearer skyline views, and fewer visitors. Winter visits are possible for hardy travelers, though wind off the harbor is sharp and ferry schedules are reduced.

Beautiful RV, clean and brand new. Owner was on call and responded to any inquires within mins. Would highly recommend.

Michael S. - Jun 2026

It’s a brand new vehicle in excellent conditions. The Mercedes van drives smoothly and easily and all the interior amenities and accessories are of very high quality (best pots and pans we ever had in an RV). It performs at its best when plugged in overnight as the fridge is spacious and energy hungry. We had a super time and would definitely rent again from Howard who is always available available to help and very responsive. Highly recommended

This is exactly what we wanted for our honeymoon! Jeff made things so easy and made things go smoothly for the rental. He even checked on us to make sure we had no problems or questions. I would recommend this rental for any type of occasion. Couldn’t ask for a more friendly person. Thank you

Spent 2 weeks in this beauty traveling the states, and I will say it was perfect. Amazing amenities in a vehicle that is not too intimidating to drive, and a host that is communicative, understanding, and accommodating. It was such an unforgettable journey that formed lasting memories which everyone should experience.

How to get to Liberty State Park

Liberty State Park sits just off Exit 14B of the New Jersey Turnpike, making it about a 15 to 25 minute drive from Midtown Manhattan via the Holland Tunnel and roughly 90 minutes from Philadelphia on I-95. RV drivers should avoid the Holland and Lincoln Tunnels, which prohibit propane-equipped RVs and most large motorhomes; instead use the Goethals Bridge or the Bayonne Bridge to approach from the south, or the George Washington Bridge from the north. The park has large surface lots that can accommodate RVs, but height-restricted parking decks elsewhere in Jersey City should be avoided. Newark Liberty International Airport is about 12 miles away and is the most convenient option for fly-and-rent travelers.
