RV park with a nearby Marina NY/PA/NJ
Hello all
Does anyone know of an rv park that also has a marina for boating somewhere in the eastern PA , NY or NJ areas ?
Or even a nearby by marina might work. Since I can’t sell my newer boat and I have a new Coach, I guess at least we can still use the boat while at an rv park.
Thanks for any suggestions.

How much money you got? Across from Manhattan in NJ near Ellis Island is Liberty Harbor RV park and across the street is Hudson Point marina. I haven't stayed at the RV park (basically a parking lot with water and elec $110+ tax)
But we stayed at the marina ($5 a foot in 2015) and cruised the waterways around NYC for 3 fantastic days. Well worth the $350 in marina fees (dockage, launch ramp and parking) we paid.
We will be staying at the RV park in mid August.

I didn't mention that one because it was much farther north. I lived in that area for a number of years and used to launch at that marina occasionally. For years it was getting kinda rundown but in recent years they have been steadliy improving it

Arrowhead looks good. It’s about 2.5 hours from Morris county NJ which is not terrible. Thanks for the suggestions.

Campgrounds with marinas
There is a campground and marina along the NYS Barge Canal system in Ilion, NY. There are full hookups for both boats and campers. There is a grocery store (Aldis) within walking distance as well as a restaurant and laundromat. NYS has more campgrounds and marinas along the barge canal.

Cool! Since you will be on the Erie Canal it will be a good idea to read up on how to use the canal and locks. Pay attention to the times they stop operating the locks. Lock 8 (just to the east of Arrohead) and lock 7 are open till 10pm in August. all the other locks stop operations at 5pm. The lock walls and guide cables are slimy you will definitely want to bring fenders and a couple of pair of cheap leather work gloves. Navigating the Canals - New York State Canals
East bound on the canal is the most popular boating area Between Locks 8 ,7 and lock 6 you have about 22 miles of water. A couple places to eat and drink on the canal are: The Lighthouse at Freemans Bridge and the Clamsteam Tavern at Cresent (past the I-87 Bridge)
West Bound is much less boat traffic. You will mostly encounter fishing boats and "Loopers". Next city to the west is Amsterdam. They have a nice city dock and a long pedestrian bridge over the train tracks into downtown, unfortunately there is very little to see or do downtown. Past Amsterdam to Canajoharie is IMO the prettiest section of the canal. Canjoharie has a nice public dock with a walkable downtown, several decent restaurants and pubs and a small but world renown art gallery. About a 35 mile run from Arrowhead. BTW past Arrowhead west bound there is no place to buy fuel on the water for about 50 miles
