Cheesequake Campground

Who would have thought that such a vibrant ecosystem could be found so close to the NYC metropolitan area? At Cheesequake State Park you’ll discover wide open fields, salt and freshwater marshes, a white cedar swamp, sprawling pine barrens, and a six-acre lake for your soaking and swimming pleasure. Cast a line in the water, hike the nature trails, or pop into the visitor center to learn about the area’s history and habitats. Campsites are cozy and semi-private, and the sights and sounds of urban life completely disappear as soon as you settle in.
