State Park
Lackawanna State Park Campground, nestled near Dalton, PA, is a gem for anyone looking to escape into nature. This place has a bit of everything: wooded campsites, a beautiful lake, and plenty of activities to keep you busy. Whether you're into tent camping, RVing, or trying out a yurt for the first time, this campground has got you covered.
One of the standout features here is the lake. It's perfect for boating and fishing, and there's a huge lakefront area where you can kick back and enjoy the view. Some folks have mentioned that the hiking trails are a real treat, especially the one that runs right along the lake. If you're into photography, bring your camera—there are some stunning shots to be had, especially in the spring.
The campground itself is pretty accommodating. Sites are generally well-spaced and wooded, offering a decent amount of privacy. However, a few campers noted that some sites are a bit close together, so you might want to scout out your spot if that's a concern. Electric hookups are available in most loops, and there are showers and toilets to keep you comfortable. Pets are welcome too, so feel free to bring your furry friends along.
For those who like a bit of convenience, the campground is not far from Scranton, making it easy to pop into town if you need supplies or just want to explore a bit. The bathhouses are clean and adequate, and there's even a sanitary dump for RVs.
