RV Rentals at New Jersey State Fair
The New Jersey State Fair takes place at the Sussex County Farm & Horse Show every year. The entertainment at the fair is diverse and ranges from rides to pig races. The main purpose of the fair is to highlight New Jersey's agriculture while supporting charities and other not-for-profit organizations. The organizers of the fair are proud that it's a family-friendly week as well.

RVING AT THE EVENT
The only RV accommodations at the event are for vendors who will live in their RVs for the duration of the show. So if you plan to attend the event as a vendor, then the terms and conditions of renting a campsite will be in your vendor contract. All other RVers must camp at one of the nearby locations. Windy Acres RV Park is just 7 miles down the road from the fairgrounds. The campsites have electrical and water hookups but no sewer. The on-site lake is great for fishing and boating, and the campground offers RV storage service if you own your RV and want to leave it there in the off-season. The campground also provides Wi-Fi service. Only 5.5 miles from the fairgrounds, Kymer's Camping Resort offers three different types of RV sites. The standard spaces come with electricity and water. The 30- and 50-amp sites have electricity, water and sewer services. Some of the amenities you can enjoy here include an Olympic-sized swimming pool, a hot tub, a splash pad, sports courts and a stocked lake. Remember, you can rent an RV through RVshare rather than buying one. Renting an RV is an excellent way to experience all the joys of life on the road without a long-term commitment. When you return your RV, there are some steps you need to take to make sure that it goes off without any hassles. You can read about those nine steps in this blog. August temperatures in Augusta range from 60 F in the evening to 82 F during the day. So you'll probably need both a windbreaker and sweat-wicking clothing to be comfortable throughout the days you spend at the New Jersey State Fair. It's always important to have enough water to stay hydrated during the hottest part of each day. You should also protect your skin with sunblock and a hat and your eyes with sunglasses when in the bright sunshine.
