Paradise Valley Homestead

11 sites ¡ Lodging, RVs, Tents33 acres ¡ West Milford, NJ
GREAT NEWS!!! Starting April 5th, my long awaited 1st Glamping site will be available for booking! Please read the description carefully of the "Gypsy Rose Vardo", to see if it's the right fit for you. We have 10 large camping sites available on our 33 acre property located in Northwest NJ. Sites 1 through 4 are on mowed, fairly level fields and are large enough for campers or RV's up to 30ft, or a couple of tents, and sites 5 and 6 are further back in the woods, available only for a few small tents, sites 7 through 10 are much further into the property and are only accessible with a high clearance AWD or 4WD SUV or you can park and hike your gear in. Although we are only 2 1/2 miles from a main highway, the last 2 miles are on a dirt road with no houses. We are surrounded by protected land, so no neighbors and lots of wildlife, including the occasional bear, coyote or raccoon. Keep all food items secured. Because we are surrounded by protected land we are not sprayed for insects, so be safe and do tick checks often and bring the bug spray. We are 45 minutes from NYC or the Delaware Water Gap and an hour away from the NJ shore. There are horse farms nearby that offer trail rides. We are also close to the Highland and Appalachian Hiking trails. There are two reservoirs within a 20-minute drive for canoeing or kayaking. There are walking trails through our property, including a ten-minute hike on a marked trail to a small waterfall in a ravine.

TJ’s Beautiful Forest

1 site ¡ RV, Tent2 acres ¡ Wharton, NJ
When water levels are high there is a small creek that runs through the middle of the property. The property has a central clearing that’s perfect for RV parking, tent set up, as well as a fire pit with firewood that is supplied on the property for purchase! It is seasoned for at least two years and protected from the elements, so it is very dry. The location is super low-key at the end of a private street. Minutes from some of the state's larger lakes, such as Lake Hopatcong, and Mt. Hope Pond. Easy access, minutes away from the state's major highways. There are well known nearby ponds, where one can swim and enjoy these different Lake beaches. There are also a ton of great food spots in the immediate area, and a big shopping mall in Rockaway. There are several grass areas that are well maintained for tent setup or other recreational activities. Fishing is excellent in this area as well, with a ton of local spots. The property has a table and chairs for eating and relaxation. Wildlife sightings are abundant, an amazing opportunity for nature lovers. This is a double lot, one site with a new home being built, the other designated as a campground and nature preserve. I allow access to indoor garage area in case of bad weather.

The best camping near Saint Paul's Church National Historic Site guide

Overview

About

St. Paul's Church is a religious gathering place like no other in America. How many churches can boast they helped start the American Revolution?

A restoration effort in 1942 refurbished the interior to its 1787-era glory. That's the year the 13 states ratified the U.S. Constitution. The original wooden church, which is no longer present, dates back to 1665. St. Paul's is one of the oldest church sites still in use in the United States. Not bad for a place that sowed seeds of the revolution.

It was the adjacent village green that hosted a key election in 1733. Called the Great Election, voters here discussed freedom of religion and the press. Those tenets exist today in the First Amendment. Perhaps you've heard of it.

During the American Revolution, British, and Hessian (German) troops tore down the original wood structure. They used it for firewood. As if to spite to the Brits, Americans simply rebuilt the church in stone.

Special events and tours, many of which are led by people in period costumes, let you step back in time more than 300 years.

The history here is immense. Gravestones date back to 1704. Surrounding industrial sites seem ultra-modern compared to this stone megalith.
