ScoutFirst time at this campground really like it a lot will be returning. The bathrooms are always clean. The grounds are always kept up. Just a really nice place to stay. Most of the sites have some kind of shade.
GuideMary & her crew run a great campground. Full hookup. Slow schedule during the week-camp store & pool mainly. Saturdays always have activities planned from bingo to quarter auctions, picnics & music. Each Saturday is different. Clean grounds. Nice playgrounds. Kiddie pool & nice size pool from 3-5’ deep. 2 cabins also available.
TravelerThe owner is kind and knowledgeable a lot of live in / snowbirds . Some are very kind but some of the live in’s are crude .
TravelerOne of our favorite places. Very well kept. No bathhouse so bring your own. A lot of shady sites. Great views of Chesapeake bay. Flat roads in the area for cycling.
GuideA beautiful, well maintained park with lots to do, great bathroom facilities and extremely nice people. The electric sites aren't all together, so you don't have RV's lined up but maybe annoying for folks who are tent camping. Avoid the locations in the mid-30's by the dumpster, both staff and campers start shaking the lid around 6:30. Between 5 AM and noon staff were driving big trucks and ATV's around with loud reverse horns, and slamming the fire pit grills, which they store sideways. Overall I had a really wonderful time, but that's largely down to good sound reduction inside the van. Almost zero cell service. I was able to get a couple of text messages in and out, but seemed to be a fluke.
ScoutThis campsite was amazing for our first tent camping experience. The park was a godsend for keeping our toddler occupied and we felt very safe overall. While the beach is pretty, be careful about the water condition. We were warned before entering and informed of the risks. They were very clear on the condition of the water that day which was a yellow, slight risk. But normally it should be okay. We would definitely camp here again.
GuideBASE ACCESS REQUIRED!
Electric/Water/Sewer hookup sites for $56 a night! (2 night minimum) Which is a great full hookup price, even though it's gone up $6 since last year. Weekly and monthly pricing available as well.
The sites are neat, well maintained, level, and sunny with concrete pads and paved campground roads. Centrally located laundry facilities and airconditioned bath house. Playground, boat launch, beach volleyball court, disk golf, basketball court, and outdoor pool all within walking distance. Other base amenities include: commissary, gas station, bowling, BBQ, Dunkin', and Greek restaurants, and golf. (I'm sure I'm forgetting something.)
Note: in July it is very buggy - the biting flies are the worst. So bring bug spray or a screened in tent to eat in.
The downside: the reservation system is a major PITA. You have to download a PDF packet, fill it out, and EMAIL it in. When you get your confirmation, it doesn't include a specific site number. You get assigned one when they call you the week of your scheduled check-in for payment completion.
Don't miss out on: the water! My advice would be to reserve one of their boats at the same time you reserve your campsite. The water in this area is great - no jellyfish, low waves. You can SUP, kayak, pontoon boat. Whatever your preference. There are large flats of grasses - which you'd want to avoid with a motor but are so much fun to paddle over. Also check out the Susquehanna National Wildlife Refuge island. You can't go inland, but you can anchor off shore, jump in and wade around the shallows.
Also very driveable to an off-base movie theater, Baltimore, and Havre de Grace.
ScoutWe stayed only one night in primitive tent site which was massive with a turnaround. It was great. There are fire pits and picnic tables and level ground. Very serene. We walked down to the river, breathtaking. Not sure of other amenities as we didn’t use them.
ScoutGreat campsite, plenty of space. It rained a lot and our campsite was a little muddy (not bad) but nearby campsites had large puddles

Water activities at multiple lakes: Lums Pond State Park Campground offers boating opportunities on its 200-acre pond. "We spent a long weekend with family at Lums Pond State Park Campground and so glad we did... Great state park with lots to do (kayaking, biking, and more)," notes camper Matt S. Electric motors only are permitted on the pond.
Hiking and biking extensive trail systems: Elk Neck State Park Campground features numerous trails leading to scenic overlooks. According to visitor Jalissa Y., "We enjoyed hiking the Beaver Marsh Trail. From our campsite we had to drive to a trail head but there were a few sights that had direct access. Also the lighthouse trail is a must."
Historical sites exploration: Several campgrounds provide access to restored historic structures. "There is a historic area in the park, with a working grist mill, mansion and other little buildings to view," reports Jen V. about Susquehanna State Park Campground. The park maintains these buildings as educational exhibits.
Fishing opportunities: Various fish species inhabit the local waterways. As Sandy E. mentions about Lums Pond, "Sites are full hook up with about 5 tent sites. All are pretty much level. Close to shopping if needed." The pond contains bass, crappie, and catfish for anglers to target.
Secluded sites with natural buffers: Many campgrounds offer privacy between sites. "There are so many trees and brush in between most sites you can't even really see your neighbors," writes Jen R. about French Creek State Park Campground. This natural screening creates a more wilderness-like experience.
Clean, modern facilities: Bathroom quality varies between locations but many are well-maintained. According to Laure D. at Elk Neck State Park, "Bathhouses were open with hot water. Nice clean bathhouses. Sites were level, spacious, spaced apart, with packed gravel surface."
Family-friendly amenities: Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park at Quarryville focuses on children's entertainment. One camper, Joel A., reports: "Very family friendly park. Cabins, RV, Tent - full amenities. Lots of things to do. A little pricy, but worth it especially with kids."
Wildlife viewing: Natural settings provide opportunities to observe local animals. "We saw bald eagles and great blue heron," Kate J. shares about her experience at Elk Neck State Park. Morning and evening hours typically offer the best wildlife viewing opportunities.
Reservation requirements vary: Some parks require advance booking while others accept walk-ins. "We camped here for just 1 night during a work trip, and was pleasantly surprised with how nice it all was. I was a walk-up with no reservation and since it was a weekday the ranger gave me a great rundown of the best spots," explains Anne L. about Susquehanna State Park.
Site conditions and terrain: Level sites aren't guaranteed at all locations. At French Creek State Park, Jen R. notes, "All sites have a paved level area which made set up a breeze. Sites were not on top of each other." However, another camper cautions about certain loops having rocky terrain.
Seasonal considerations: Cecil County Permaculture offers a more primitive experience with basic amenities. Charles H. reports, "Has outhouse, fire pit, running water on side of house near outhouse. An is a wonderful person. Good reception with T-Mobile!" This smaller operation has only two sites available.
Alcohol restrictions: Rules differ between parks. The Philadelphia-West Chester KOA allows alcohol, while state parks like French Creek prohibit it, with rangers regularly patrolling to enforce rules.
Playground access: When selecting sites, consider proximity to play areas. One camper at Fair Hill Natural Resources Management Area reports, "Clean family friendly environment with tons of extra curricular activities for all." Their facilities are primarily designed for group camping.
Swimming options: Several parks offer swimming facilities during summer months. At Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park, Ashley S. shares, "We just got back from this campground after spending 5 nights there. The water park is super fun for adults and kids. The entire campground is clean and very well maintained."
Tent pad considerations: Some campgrounds have better-prepared tent sites than others. According to one Susquehanna State Park visitor, "I had chosen this site, based on two factors: 1. It was available and 2. It was close to the playground. Unfortunately, it was most likely available because it was overrun with roots and rocks (no pad for the tent)."
Organized activities: Several parks run scheduled programs. A Jellystone Park camper mentions, "We did a birthday package where they brought a cake to the camp with Booboo for my daughter. They have the pools and playgrounds and fishing."
Hookup availability: Full hookup sites are limited at some locations. Adam and Suzanne B. report from Elk Neck State Park: "Our site was a level full hook up. The road on the FHU loop is narrow and hilly. Our site was uphill and at a difficult angle. Plenty of bigger TTs and 5th wheels were camping."
Access road considerations: Entrance roads can present challenges for larger rigs. At Philadelphia-West Chester KOA, Matt S. cautions, "I did have major trouble backing in because the road is too narrow for a 45' motorhome to back in on a nearly 90-degree angle. So difficult, that I cracked the bottom of my front cap catching the grass and gravel beside the grave road."
Site dimensions and leveling: Check site specifications before booking. At Lums Pond State Park, Adam and Suzanne B. note, "In February, about 1/4 of the sites were occupied. It was very quiet. The sites are large and well spaced. Many are in full sun. The bathroom facilities and laundry are clean and modern. There are separate, individual shower rooms."
Off-season availability: Some campgrounds remain open year-round. According to Laure D. at Elk Neck, "Finished the season at this state park in MD with full hook up (20, 30, and 50 amp, water and sewer) and the water was still on in November."
