You can check these campgrounds/campsites near NYC. For a traditional campground experience Clarence Fahnestock State Park If you're nostalgic for the days of family camping trips, rowboat rentals, Saturday-night movies and organized hiking excursions, book yourself one of the 80 campsites at this 14,000-acre upstate park located along the beautiful Canopus Lake. Nearby hunting and fishing are also available with a state permit. Price: $19 a night per tent site Getting there: From Grand Central Terminal, take Metro-North's Hudson Line to the Cold Spring station. Arrange ahead of time for the eight-mile taxi ride to the campgrounds (about $20).

The closest place would be Floyd Bennet Field in Brooklyn. I'm not sure what it's like, camping in the middle of Brooklyn doesn't sound appealing to me. Depending on where you live and traffic it can take you over an hour just to get out of NYC. But assuming light traffic you could get out to Heckscher State Park, Fire Island, Harriman or Big Bear. There's also several state parks in NJ that are around an hour's drive from the city. Try this search for more ideas: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=camping+near+nyc
