Planning out our trip day by day.
Got a couple more questions:
1) Finding RV parks within train ride distance of Philadelphia is not easy. We want to be north of Phili if possible because we are going heading north afterwards. So far I have found Timberlane Campground at Clarksboro NJ. Does anyone have any other recommendations?
2) Next question is New York!.. pretty scary for us! :-).. We'd like to setup base at an RV park North of New York and then catch the train in. Does anyone have any suggestions? The plan is to walk the length of Broadway (Ive done this but tyne family hasn't) We may even stop the night in which case our RV parking spot would just be that.. an RV parking spot for a trailer. Any ideas?
Thanks!
I would highly recommend Oak Grove Park which is about 30 miles north of Philadelphia. Click here to view their website.
The campground is family owned and very clean. All sites are gravel, level and nice size. The campground is located in Hatfield, PA which is a very quiet and safe community. I live 2 miles from the campground and have been storing our motorhome there for the past 9 years.
To get the train into Philadelphia it is a 8 minute drive from the campground to the train station. The train ride into Philly is about 50 minutes via the Septa line.
If you opt to stay at this campground let me know and I can assist with your travel details & logistics. If you stay a few days in this area you can click here for other local attractions. Hershey Park could be a fun day for the kids.
Please let me know if I can be of help.
