Artillery Ridge Campground features full-hookup sites with 50-amp service and accommodates larger rigs on gravel pads. Drummer Boy Camping Resort, open April through October, offers big-rig friendly sites with water, sewer, and electric hookups. "Sites are well maintained, clean, wooded, and in the area we are in are spaced nicely," noted one visitor, though another mentioned some sites have "annoying slopes where the table/fire pit is not level to the camper." Round Top Campground provides electric, water and sewer hookups but has received mixed reviews about site spacing and levelness.
Year-round options include Western Village RV Park in Carlisle and Ben Franklin RV Park in York, both accommodating larger motorhomes with 50-amp service. Pull-through sites at Gettysburg Campground measure approximately 100 feet, providing ample space for larger rigs with towed vehicles. Many parks in the region fill quickly during peak battlefield touring season and fall foliage periods. Dump stations are available at all major RV parks, with Thousand Trails Gettysburg Farm offering full sewer hookups for extended stays. A recent review cautioned about navigating some campground roads, noting they're "fairly narrow with potholes" and that "some roads are one-way but people don't pay much attention to that." Most parks welcome pets but implement standard leash requirements.
