The essential guide to camping in the Garden State. From the northern reaches of Stokes State Forest to the Atlantic coastal islands, camping in New Jersey has never been better. Best Tent Camping: New Jersey by Matt Willen and Marie Javins will guide you to the quietest, most beautiful, most secure, and best managed campgrounds in the Garden State.
Unlike other guides that merely list all campgrounds, Best Tent Camping: New Jersey is full color and profiles in detail only the 50 best sites in the state for campers who seek the serene and secluded.
You'll find essential information about each campground (including season, facilities, rates, directions, GPS coordinates, and websites), as well as a description of the campground; the best sites within the campground; and nearby activities such as hiking, canoeing, fishing, and mountain biking.
Author Biography
ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Originally from Northern Virginia, Marie Javins was dragged as a child all over the Shenandoah Valley and surrounding mountains. Back then she hated camping, fishing, and looking at wildlife, and after college she immediately moved to New York City. She did not learn to love camping again until, as an adult, she camped around Africa as a matter of financial necessity. Since then, she has tent-camped her way across the United States and New Zealand.
Marie was an editor and colorist for Marvel Comics for 13 years before taking up travel writing. She currently lives in downtown Jersey City, New Jersey, where she is authoring Slow Boat to Everywhere, a book about her trip around the world by surface transport (for more details, go to MariesWorldTour.com).
Matt Willen is a writer, explorer, and photographer. He spends much of his time exploring little-known and remote places around the globe, most recently in areas above 50 degrees north latitude and below 50 degrees south. Matt is also the author of 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: Harrisburg and Best Hikes of the Appalachian Trail: Mid-Atlantic. He lives seasonally in Pennsylvania and Nova Scotia.
