Was thinking about taking the kids camping.  Most  All of the State Parks seem to be closed for camping.  I've been looking for a park that is open for camping, now.  There seem to be some family camping areas open with amenities and games and such but I am looking for just straight-up camping without themed weekends, group campfire songs and the likes.  One park I found that seemed to fit this bill was Turkey Swamp Park in Freehold.   Has anybody stayed there and has some thoughts on it?  Any other places with a "state park flavor" open that might also be a contender in Northern or Central NJ?  Wouldn't mind sites with electric and water and Turkey Swamp based on their website has them. 

Are there any plans of opening state parks for camping?

@Underdog my MIL and SIL camp here annually. They're open and should be close to you.

It's a drive but we've camped at Ole Bull campground in Potter County PA.  The area is very nice - just don't ruin it by thinking like you're from NJ.  The campground is well maintained, they do a good job of giving each camp site privacy. There is a swimming area and very nice restrooms/ shower rooms.   If you like being outdoors, you will like it here.  You'll even get acquainted with some black bears.  It's worth the drive to get away from NJ for a while.

Second the Great Divide. Grabbed a site there in the actual divide and found out it was chili cook off weekend. Had a great time.
