Allaire state park in new jersey

Question

Anyone on here familiar with allaire? I have South Jersey camping plans for the long memorial day weekend about 20 miles South of Allaire,and I am considering heading out Thursday evening right after work and staying there just for the one night mainly to avoid a long GS Parkway trip on the Friday of memorial day weekend, but also because my kids have never stayed in a state park. I would like to show them that life is possible without electric water and sewer hook up for one night. I also hear that there is great bike riding trails there and buy kids would enjoy doing that for a few hours friday morning before we get back in the truck for the last 20 miles drive

Any thoughts?

I live 3? miles from Allaire and ride my mountain bike in the park several times each week. Allaire SP is quite spread out. The camping area is a mile from the main park and the main park is 2 miles from the main bike trails on Hospital Road. The trails are quite advanced, however, there is a great "rail" bike trail from the Park all the way to the ocean.

The Camping area has some nice hiking trails and is probably quiet before Memorial Day - check out the "Village" at the park and the train rides. Should keep you busy for a while.

Thanks. I hear that the campsites are very close to the highway and therefore you hear a lot if noise at nite. Can anyone confirm this, or recommend sites away from the noise?

Hey! Thats me!We love Allaire! Heading back there again end of May. Where from in north NJ? I am in the Paramus area. Let me know what type of camper you are heading there with and I can give some detailed info. The park is a little tight in the sites to the rear of the CG but a great place to camp.The village is great to visit - we saw about half of it on our last visit... hope to see the rest this time.

Howdy neighbor! I'm about 5 blocks from the Paramus border in sleepy little Maywood. We'll be in a tiny single axle hybrid (13 foot box + tounge when closed) pulled by a ford explorer. We will only be staying for one night.
