We are looking for a NY State Park rv camp area. We want to ride the train in and visit the tourist stops plus local sites.
The one in NJ is a budget buster.....
By "the one in NJ" are you referring to Liberty Harbor? Yes, it's pricy, but you can take the PATH subway (which runs every few minutes) rather than the commuter rail (which has a limited schedule). So be sure to check your total daily cost for campsite AND transit.
Also, those hours on the train are hours you aren't in the city. For what you can see in a 3-day stay at Liberty Harbor, you'd need to stay 4 days at a more distant place. Finally, if you are relying on commuter trains, be sure to check the schedules so you don't get marooned.
