Mountainview Campground
Family owned and operated since 1953. Located within a few miles of Interstate 78 and about 1 hour from New York and Philadelphia. Campground nestled on the south side of the Musconetcong Mountains of the northwest corner of Hunterdon County and only 5 miles from the Delaware River. RV and Tent camping.

Mountainview campground is about as close to primitive as you can find in NJ. With large well-spaced sites that are intertwined with 150 acres of farmland, we can ensure you an opportunity of a truly tranquil experience for an outdoor enthusiast. Tent or RV camping.
Services
There are several ways to the campground. We suggest below-driving directions, especially for trailers. If you enter Goritz road from County road 579 it is beautiful, scenic turns to DIRT road, steep with sharp turns no guard rails and it is impossible to make a turn into the campground( We know some have tried).
We are a campground not an RV park. Although we are glad to have you all of the sites you will have to drive on grass, and are close to level, not perfect. Seldom is this a problem but we do not want you to have the wrong impression. Also most all of the sites have some kind of tree cover we have about 6 sites that are in what we call the open field that are great for overnight or short stay but are still on the grass.

Test car camp for one night with my daughter. Nice campsite, clean bathhouse. Will definitely recommend.

I will not add much to what another yelper (A. Jordan R.) already wrote so eloquently. The only difference is that there were no chickens when we went---only goats and sheep. Maybe, we went in late October and chickens were moved elsewhere. Lot of things to do nearby, including going to Frenchtown (charming downtown by the river), hiking, farms, and Ringing Rock park. Tohickon valley park and Ralph Stover park are 30 min away. Had a great time with the family. We liked all the tall trees, creating a nice rustic feeling (in contrast to another camp we went this time last year---that camp was good

Really nice quiet campground. Very reasonably priced for water/electric site. Not sure about bathhouses because we didn't use them. Love the sheep and goats who came to visit our site and graze.

This a field made into a campground. There are a couple unlevel pull through sites. We were here for one night but had to disconnect to get it level front to back.
Nothing is numbered. There is electric and water but no dump. They charge you to dump. Nothing is said about charging to dump on their website until you get here. Then they tell you. It was quiet and if you have children, there is a nice playground.
They were nice and will tell you NOT to follow Google GPS instructions as there are curvy narrow roads and a couple low clearance bridges. It makes for a difficult time getting to and from

I was very surprised how I was treated given the great reviews for this campground. We were trying to make arrangements to get away from Rhode Island due to soon to be Hurricane Henri. We had an overnight reservation at Mountain View on a Monday but the storm was due to make landfall in RI on Sunday. I called Mountain View to see if they had availability for us any sooner than Monday. They were all booked which is understandable. We were able to find accommodations that would allow us to get out of RI on Saturday at the campsite on our route after Mountain View. I called Mountain View back after

We made a same-day, one-night reservation. Very friendly, helpful, and gracious. Our site was level w/water and electric. Very peaceful, and we slept well. We talked w/a few long-term campers, and they were all very nice. Variety of sites -- field (a few RV pull-throughs), wooded areas, and alongside the woods, and nearly all the sites are well-distanced from each other. For us, it's a perfection location for our last-night before reaching home, and we will definitely go back. We liked Mountainview Campground.
Two things --> No 1: Bathrooms are clean and well-maintained (as everything is at this

This place is wonderful. Tim and his wife Magda are the best. It was exactly what my husband and I wanted. Quiet, rustic, family friendly and gorgeous. We went tent camping in 2019 and saw a For Sale sign for a trailer. Went to go look at it just for fun and we were hooked . Bought it the next day and became seasonal campers. Last year was our first full year and we couldn't have been happier. We have had family gatherings and friends to visit and they have loved it! There are farm animals , trails , a community garden and wonderful people from all walks of life here. It is our personal patch

Mountainview Campground a dandy location for some outdoor camping. I went a few months back with some friends. One campground was large enough for all of us to fit our tents and cars with more than an abundant amount of space to goof around. The site was clean the air was clean and the whole experience was serene. The prices are fair and cheap, if you need wood it is provided as well as restrooms. Great experience, recommended for all!

Wife and I had a wonderful time on this near end-of-season 2-niter. The (pull-through) site, though not buried in the woods, felt private with tree buffer. Crushed stone base, fire ring, 30/50A & water hookup. All was good. Chatted with owner (nice guy) while visiting the goat, sheep and turkeys. Free dumping would've been a bonus, but wasn't a deal breaker.

Great campground! Tim is very nice and helpful. Mix of regular and permanent sites. Some permanent sites appear run down. Some sites slope and a little tight as campground on a mountain. Mix of wooded sites and open fields with no sites.

Looked up reviews and most everyone have positive reviews. I based my decision on that and speaking with Tim the owner. Upon arriving at 6:45 PM (near dark) I spotted a small building which was the office. They were busy on a Friday night. My site was not to far away and was pull thru. My site was barley big enough for me to open my slides on my th wheel. It was not level, and trees were hitting my camper. After about 45 minutes of trying to level and unhook from my truck, I was frustrated. (Not a Happy camper) As I was unwinding with a beer, i heard this loud bang on my roof followed by several

Came up here sort of on a whim one day after work. Only planned on staying one night, ended up staying three. Here is what there is to like about Mountainview...

- Facilities are clean and well stocked (bathrooms, showers, etc.) Showers are also free, meaning you don't need to remember to stock up on quarters.
- Campgrounds and campsites are very well maintained
- Campsites are both gigantic and private. And I mean GIGANTIC. Ours had two giant fire pits and easily accommodated two cars.
- Fire pits are stone rings, which really added a rustic touch to the site. Not a metal ring, but a actual

Because I work long hours and workweeks, I cannot get away for more than 1-2 days at a time. This campground is close to home and I love it. The owners are fantastic, The grounds are kept clean and restrooms are clean, with hot water. You can choose to be in the open next to other campers, or in a more secluded spot with a bit more privacy. This place is about simplicity, you won't find cable tv......pools.....or game rooms. This campground is about relaxing and admiring the sites around you. If you have kids that need to be entertained by modern amenities, this is not the place to go

Beautiful, quiet, clean, and friendly campground. We found this gem last summer and fell in love with it. The owners are so nice, the campsites are large, and there's plenty of land to explore. Since finding this campground, we found a few more spots in Milford and just adore this area as a whole. Site 60 is our favorite but 83 and 39 are also extremely nice. They have a little playground area as well and the bathrooms are always cleaned and stocked.

Spent a weekend here on short notice with a friend at the primitive site #97. Absolutely what I was looking for and the owner could not have been nicer and more accommodating. Great experience and will definitely be booking again!

Fabulous place to camp!! My husband and I love this place. We camped in our tent. The grounds are clean and well taken care of. The bathrooms and showers are clean. Very quiet and peaceful grounds. Lots of shade and space. I got full service on my phone and hotspot. You don't feel on top of the next person which is nice. We felt very safe and welcomed. The owners are very nice and friendly. They answered all my questions, let us know what's in the area and had great stories. You can really tell they love what they do and really care about the land and wildlife. I was very impressed. We

If you want quiet, relaxing, and peaceful this is it. Totally an enjoyable time. No troublemakers. Owners are friendly and accommodating. It's what was and still is what a great campground used to be before corporate America decided to get their hands involved in some of the larger and more popular places. One downside that does not apply to me, so I don't care, is that there isn't a ton for kids to do. I will definitely return.

4.5 stars! This place was very nice. Bathrooms were very clean and the owner was very accommodating when we asked to switch sites. The only reason I take the .5 star was because of the terrain to the bathroom. It is a bit too rugged, would be better if the larger rocks were raked out, or a few pavers put down. (I know, it's camping but we had small children). Bring a long extension cord for electricity! We will be back!

Tim, his wife, and son are the friendliest campground owners I've ever met. He made my friends and I feel so welcome, didn't hesitate to give us any advice or help since we were first time campers and both the campsite and bathhouses are so clean. The area is so beautiful to hike through and the town around the camp is also very friendly. SO excited to come back.

I really like this place. The first time I scheduled here I asked for a spot with water and electric but still wanted to be as far away from other people as possible. When we arrived the old couple that run the place are the nicest people ever. Outside the house/office there is a bunch of animal skulls and remains so you're almost afraid to knock on the wrong door but DO IT YOUR IN THE RIGHT PLACE. When you expect a giant hunting man with a beard like Rip Van Winkle to answer the door a kind little old lady come out with a smile and he husband comes out and fires up his four wheeler. They

I've camped all over upstate NY and this place is dirt cheap and so close to frenchtown and other surrounding areas. They have many area's to chose from with water and electricity and such a reasonable price. Bathrooms are bright, SUPER clean, and no cost for showers.
Then the owners are AMAZING. They also have a watering whole for swimming, not gonna lie I haven't been here when it was clean and swim-able but but to each there own. I mean where I was a kid and my pool was turning green and my mom yelled at me for going swimming in the pool I never understood it....until
