In CT as far as the SPs are concerned you will have to contend with the fairly new rules that state you can camp a total of 21 days and then a "time out" comes into play. I'm paraphrasing but here's a quote from the the state's website so you can be fully cognizant of all nuances:DEEP wrote:
Length of Stay
The camp day is defined as being from the time of arrival until 12:00 noon. Check-in time is 1:00 p.m.
At Hammonasset Beach and Rocky Neck State Parks, the maximum length of stay is twenty-one consecutive days. If you have a 21 day reservation, all members of your camping party and your camping equipment must leave the park for 5 days before you can return. At any inland state park campground the maximum length of stay is fourteen consecutive days. Following each stay at an inland campground, regardless of duration, a five day interim period is mandatory for all members of the camping party. Campers may not move to another camping area within the same park or forest during the interim. The camp areas within Pachaug State Forest and Hopeville Pond, and Kettletown and Black Rock State Parks shall be considered one campground. All equipment must be removed from the campsite at the end of each stay.

Yes I noticed the announcement on the web page! Something about waiting for a new budget to be made:S
Well I planned my long trip in NYS this year but was thinking I'd hit Hammo for a couple of weekdays. Think I better find another NYS site for that jaunt as well.
