RV Parks In Bedford Hills, New York

No. Bedford Hills is an affluent Westchester County suburb with no RV park or overnight parking in town, so you camp at a nearby county or private park and use Bedford Hills as a base. The closest public option with hookups is Croton Point Park in Croton-on-Hudson, about 15 miles west along the Hudson River. Ward Pound Ridge Reservation lies about 10 miles east with rustic camping and no hookups. For full hookups you cross into Connecticut, where private campgrounds sit within a reasonable drive.

Croton Point Park, run by Westchester County in Croton-on-Hudson, is the nearest public campground with hookups, offering electric and water sites that handle RVs up to about 50 feet, roughly 15 miles west of Bedford Hills. Reservations are made by calling the park office at (914) 862-5290, and the season runs from early March. For a private full-hookup experience with 30- and 50-amp service, Cozy Hills Campground near Bantam, Connecticut is a solid choice within about a 35-mile drive east, though it is seasonal, so check dates before you plan.

Croton Point Park reservations are handled by the Westchester County Parks office rather than a national portal. Call the park directly at (914) 862-5290, and note that reservations for the upcoming season typically open in January. RV sites come with electric and water hookups and accommodate rigs up to about 50 feet, with a maximum stay limit per calendar year. Rates run lower with a Westchester County Park Pass and higher without one. Because the park is popular and close to New York City, we call early to lock in summer and fall-foliage weekends.

Only on the right roads, and this is critical in the New York metro. Many of the region parkways, including the Taconic State Parkway, the Bronx River Parkway, and Connecticut Merritt Parkway, ban RVs, trailers, and trucks outright and have low bridges. Stick to I-684, I-287, and numbered US and state routes like NY-22 for a big rig. Route your GPS in truck or RV mode so it never sends you onto a parkway. Croton Point and the Connecticut private parks are reachable on truck-legal roads if you plan the route carefully first.

Late spring through fall is the season. Summer brings warm, humid days in the low 80s and is peak time, with Croton Point and the Connecticut parks filling for weekends. Fall is spectacular in the lower Hudson Valley, and foliage weekends in late September and October are our favorite, though they book out fast. Spring is cooler and wet but quieter early, with Croton Point opening in March and Ward Pound Ridge running year-round. Winter is cold with snow and most campgrounds closed, so plan cold-month trips carefully around the few open options.

Historically yes, but check current status before you count on it. Clarence Fahnestock State Park near Carmel has offered tent and RV sites along Route 301, but the main campground has been closed for a season to build a new bathhouse, and even when open it has no hookups or dump station. The group wilderness campground can be available by calling the park office. For hookup camping we point RVers to Croton Point Park instead. Always confirm the current season on the New York State Parks site before routing a rig toward Fahnestock.

This is a pricey region. Croton Point Park RV sites run roughly $30 to $60 a night, with the lower end for holders of a Westchester County Park Pass and the higher end for non-residents, which is still a value for the location. Private Connecticut campgrounds like Cozy Hills typically run $50 to $80 or more a night for full hookups depending on season and site. Ward Pound Ridge rustic camping is cheaper but has no hookups. Weekends and fall foliage carry peak pricing, so midweek stays save real money near New York City.

Plenty across the lower Hudson Valley and nearby New York City. Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, about 10 miles east, is the largest park in the Westchester system with 4,315 acres of trails, fishing, and history. Croton Point on the Hudson offers river views, beaches, and trails. The Hudson River towns nearby, including Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown, have historic estates and dining. Metro-North rail lets you leave the rig parked and ride into Manhattan for a day in the city. Add wineries and orchards north of here and you can fill a week.

Yes, and this trips up more RVers here than anywhere. The classic New York and Connecticut parkways were built for cars, with low stone-arch bridges and posted bans on commercial vehicles, trucks, trailers, and RVs. The Taconic State Parkway, Bronx River Parkway, Hutchinson River Parkway, and Merritt Parkway are all off-limits to a motorhome or towed trailer. Hitting a low parkway bridge is a real and expensive risk. Always run your navigation in RV or truck mode, verify the route on truck-legal interstates and US routes, and never trust a car GPS to route your rig through Westchester.

Generally yes, with rules. Westchester County parks such as Croton Point and Ward Pound Ridge allow leashed pets in many areas, and private Connecticut campgrounds are commonly pet-friendly, though each sets its own leash, breed, and cleanup policies, so confirm before booking. We keep our dogs leashed, pick up after them, and never leave them unattended at the site. The extensive trail systems at Ward Pound Ridge and along the Hudson give dogs plenty of room to stretch on a day hike from your base, which is a nice perk in an otherwise built-up region.

Reserve, especially near New York City. Croton Point takes reservations by phone through the county office, often opening in January, and summer and fall-foliage weekends book out well ahead. The private Connecticut parks also fill for peak dates. Walk-up camping is not something we count on in Westchester, where demand is high and options are few. Even midweek we call ahead to confirm a site that fits our rig length and hookup needs. Planning ahead also lets you sort the truck-legal route before you are on the road with a big rig.

Resupply is available but plan for suburban logistics. Propane refill, fuel, and groceries are all reachable around Bedford Hills and the larger towns along I-684 and NY-22, though dedicated RV service shops are thinner on the ground in Westchester than in more rural regions. We top off propane and stock groceries before heading to Croton Point or crossing into Connecticut, since the closer you get to a park the fewer big-rig-friendly stations you find. For major RV repair, expect to drive out toward larger dealers north in the Hudson Valley or in Connecticut.
