Need campground recommendation near West Point (US Military Academy)

We want to travel to New York to see the West Point-VMI game on October 30. Does anyone have any recommendations for campgrounds near West Point?

Thanks,
John

Google maps says it's about 40 minutes away. Let me know what you think and we'll keep it in mind.

Dave, DW has civilian DoD card so that looks really good, thanks. Have you ever been there?

Currently at Black Bear campground, site 43 , large sites, lots of room to back in, put satellite dish out towards front of site, trees at back.
sites in the middle have no tree problem . had no problem getting to top of hill, even with the hairpin turn that I've heard people complain about,(3410RE Bighorn, 36') wi-fi works great.
their cable only has 12 or so basic channels. Tour of New York City leaves from the campground(taking it tomorrow) nice and quiet up top here.
