Know before you go
Freezing nights and coastal wind are standard; verify which campgrounds honestly operate in winter.
Summer beach traffic is heavy on weekends. Nor'easters can flood coastal campgrounds in fall and winter.

December tips for New Jersey
Nights dip to freezing or below: insulated water hose, tank protection or a winterized rig, and extra propane.
Carry traction boards and check chain requirements before any mountain route.
Plan shorter driving days — winter-pattern daylight is limited and campground offices close early.
