$100 per night

Think cost per site is based on a number of realities, particularly the location of the CG. EVERYTHING costs more in the Northeast, and there is far less open land there than probably anywhere else in the country. Land values are very high, and more and more campgrounds are being sold and turned into housing developments. Supply and Demand, as so many others have said, is the reality. The more people want something, the more it costs to get it. NJ has a short supply of campsites throughout the state, and they are in high demand. Property taxes are outrageous, and utilities are brutally expensive. Campground owners charge what the market will bear to meet costs and get at least some profit. Almost NEVER an available campsite in the summer, particularly on weekends. As we travel more, off the East Coast, we do find more campgrounds with lower costs per site - but it is seldom we find one for less than $40/night with FHU. State parks are different, but it is uncommon (except in Florida) to find one with more than a limited # of sewered sites, and WIFI at the site is very rare indeed. Bottom line, RVing is expensive! But we wouldn't give it up for anything!
