  Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina

  RV Park surrounded by water!

  Our first visit (March 2018) was just prior to peak season (lower rates) and we had a site literally 10 ft. from the water! Full hook ups and sites were a little close, but nice. There seemed to be a lot of long term/permanent residents, but most sites along the waterfront remained open. The campground seemed to stress pet restrictions both in the rules section of their registration packet and signage around the grounds. There was a pet exercise/walking area, but could use some sprucing up. However, no one really made an issue of walking your dog around the campground and as the weekend came around, more and more dogs were around.

  You have to drive through a residential neighborhood to reach Bar Harbor, so big rigs take care/caution. Would like to try Bar Harbor again sometime.

  Not Bad!

  Lots of long term residents in dirty rundown campers. Trash dumpsters are always full. 

  Bathrooms and showers are always clean. Full hookups at most sites. Staff very friendly. 

  Laundry on site as well. Do not try and come in after dark. Very tight and very dark.

  Thousand Trails Circle M

  1910 tenement site

  We received a free membership to Thousand Trails when we bought our camper. We booked this campground and drove two hours to get there. When we arrived we were told that we could pick a site down by the river in the loop. My wife and I thought that sounds nice and thought we had lucked out. When we pulled into the loop, all the travel trailers were literally on top of on another. The sites against the bank were short and uneven and because the shower house was so far away they had port a potties. It looked like a 1910 tenement site. We went back to the office and the employee told us that there were no other sites available for the two days we had booked. Rather than be miserable we canceled and drove home. 

  We stayed at another TT site in Swainton, NJ which was nice but too many annual site holders. Bottom line I think thousand trails is a waste book a nice campground.

  Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina

  Peace & Tranquility, waterfront. Fish from your camp site.

  Beautiful family owned campground. Kinda small but has a lot to offer. A nice clean pool, camp store, clean bathroom/showers, full hookups, surrounded by water. Fishing piers, (I love to crab) catch them and steam them in my camper (a MD thing :-) Only bait at the camp store or with 25 miles is night crawlers. Bring your own if your a fishing person. Drove me nuts.  Quiet, peaceful, family oriented, mostly older adults with RV's as it's an RV Park. However, they accept all types of camping situations except tents. They even have one site they rent to a conversion type van w full hook ups.  This is our 3rd year camping there spring, summer & fall. The water bugs are bad in the spring, no mosquitoes, acorns falling from the trees on your camper in the fall, no golf carts allowed too small of a place. Take the good with the bad... Nice shady sites, can fish from your chair. Kayak rentals, boat slips.  Close to all types of stores, civilization, 7-11, a nice seafood store to get crabs or fish if you didn't catch any.  There is also a Waffle House around the corner.... That in itself is worth the trip! Five stars in my book.  We just spent a week there for Memorial Day. Highly recommend

  Country Acres Campground

  Clean, quiet, and really nice

  Our first trip of 2023 was to Country Acres Campground in Gordonville, PA. And what a great campground to start our season! This is a great spot for visiting Pennsylvania Amish of Lancaster County and about a one-hour drive to Hersheypark. 

  Our site(# 837) was a good size for our motor home+ toad. It was level and covered in gravel, like all sites and roadways within the campground. Our site had full hookups, decent wi-fi, cable TV, a picnic table, fire ring, and nicely kept grassy area between sites. 

  Becci was super nice at check-in and check-out. They offer a 2:00 pm check-out which we enjoyed. And there are free tickets available for the Amish Farmland Bus Tour. There’s a small, basic tree at the front office. The pool wasn’t yet opened for our stay. They offered a 10% Good Sam discount(which is nice). 

  Bottom line: We had a great time at Country Acres Campground and can’t wait to go back! 

  THINGS I LIKED: 

  • Clean and well-maintained property 

  • Quiet campground with friendly neighbors 

  • All of the RVs appeared well-maintained with no seasonal sites 

  • Easy access from Route 30

  Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina

  Waterfront Sites have Great Views

  The daily waterfront sites are pricy but right on the water with great views. Some of the trailer sites are a tough back in but worth the trouble. WiFi is good washrooms are modern and adequate. A lot of long term residents but the transient sites are pretty separate. Sites are paved, pretty level and just a bit close.

  Thousand Trails Circle M

  Great campground, we'll be back.

  As with all thousand trails, this campground is first come best site. While the top part of the campground seemed more communal, we chose the lower, Riverside sites and we're glad we did! The campground sits in the center of a horseshoe curve of the river, bring tubes and kayaks! We didn't know but went and bought a tube and spent the day on the river!

  Bug spray is a must and lower sites are muddy, all in all, we had a great weekend here!

  Lums Pond State Park Campground

  Nice and quite. 7 mile hiking trail and 8 mile multi purpose trail.

  Sites are full hook up with about 5 tent sites.

  All are pretty much level.

  Close to shopping if needed.

  Full Hook up!

  We stayed in the full hook up sites this year and loved it! Bath houses were still very clean and hardly used. Very quite towards the end of the season.

  Elk Neck State Park Campground

  Lots of camping, full hookups, lots of activities

  There’s a ton of camping at Elk Neck, including a loop with full hook ups. In the full hook up loop pay close attention to the lengths specified. The actual pads are fairly level but some of the driveways to them are very sloped. Long rigs will have issues in a few of the sites.
  There’s a camp store, boat ramp, swimming, fishing and lots,of great hiking. Definitely drive to, and then hike to the light house (open most weekends) the light house and the view are definitely worth it.

  Pequea Creek Campground

  Rv park, not a campground

  I arrived with hopes of staying for three nights. Unfortunately, most RV's here are long term & seasonal residents. One one bathroom had flushing toilets and one was clogged, over flowing garbage, paid showers, extremely rough broken roads made it difficult to get in and out of campsite. I was scared in my space and asked to be moved out in the open, not usually a preference for me. Lori was polite, answers the phone quickly and has lots of answers to my questions. That was great. Other than Lori's wonderful presence, this "camp" was a massive let down. I will be leaving at sun up.

  Codorus State Park Campground

  Great but many unlevel sites

  We stayed Memorial Day weekend here because it’s so close to home. Our 1st ever RV camping was here 4 yrs ago. This time we’re in loop B site 79. It was fairly level but our front was as low as it could go. The worst part of the site was side to side space was very narrow. Our steps were just a couple feet from a steep slope that went down to our picnic table and fire pit. We didn’t use that area since our relatives were in site 78 which had a nicer area. It was super quiet with the exception of the few barking dogs. One sounded like it was being mauled and barked all day. The overall campground offers a lot to do. There’s a pool, splash pad, disc golf, Lake Marburg, a small museum, and lots of activities for kids planned. It’s near Hanover PA with the UTZ factory (tours Mon - Thur) outlet store, and near Gettysburg, PA. There are 4 loops, and loop B has some full hook up sites(look at sites in the 50s). The weather was perfect! Bath house was nice enough. Great trails for hiking and riding mountain bikes. Fishing allowed. We even found a look out point. We’ll be back again someday!

  Delaware Motel and RV Park

  Do not camp here

  I want to start off by saying that I did not camp here. I live close enough though that I thought I would make the drive and check it out since it was not previously reviewed.

  This is a run down hotel with "long term" rv campers.

  I felt unsafe enough and uncomfortable enough that I never even got out of my car and didn't bother getting photos. I'm actually happy I didn't bring my kids with me to check out this site.

  Would avoid at all costs if possible.

  Waterfront sites very nice

  Beautiful water front sites and good location right off 95. We are here visiting family for the holidays and it’s serving us well. I will say you can tell most people are long term residents. Only the front section is available for nightly booking. Cute little dock, fishing from your campsite if waterfront and an area to put in small boats or kayaks. Also has a bathhouse that is dated but clean.

  Well if you need a place?!

  Can’t remember our lot # we were a lot away from the gate, it was used a lot and all night long. People working in DC using the campground as their residence, leaving 5ish because of traffic to be encountered. Well hopped up diesel pickups, non-baffled Harley exhausts. Our camper is incredibly quiet so we closed the windows a slept. 60% were long term residents of the campground. Our sight was one of the few semi- isolated.

  The Loose Caboose Campground

  Memorial Day weekend 2020

  Nice area to camp. I have a 33 ft Rockwood pull behind. Regular site (not pull through) was snug to park in. Once parked and setup, site was nice with full hook up and fire ring. Very little for children to do. Playground on lowest level of mountain but no pool, ball court, game room, etc. And very snug coming down mountain to leave with a long rig

  Cherry Hill Park

  Awesome Campground near Washington, D.C.

  We had another great stay at Cherry Hill Park in College Park, MD. 

  We stayed in a level pull-thru site(#1715) with picnic table on a paver patio, iron table and chairs, clean gravel surface, grill, and fire pit. The site was just big enough for our motor home and Jeep. Full hook-ups with 50-amp service all worked fine. 

  If you’re visiting Washington, this is the place to stay. They offer a daily charter bus plus the Metro bus stops at the campground entrance. And if you have a car, it’s about 35-minutes drive time(maybe a bit longer with traffic). 

  To be honest, it’s a great place to stay even if you’re not visiting D.C. They have two swimming pools, a cafe, playgrounds, well-stocked camp store, delivery of firewood, ice, and cafe orders, and a concierge to help with travel and tourist sites. 

  The entire park is clean and well-maintained. 

  THINGS I ESPECIALLY LIKED: 

  1. Proximity to Washington, D.C. 

  2. Excellent condition and clean 

  3. Great staff to help with making the most of your stay

  Nice campground close to home

  This campground isn't too far from our home in Maryland, so if they have room and we want to go spur of the moment, this one is a good choice.  The sites are fairly large and they do have some full hook up sites which is nice.  The bathhouses are ok....because this one is not as off the beaten path, I think a lot of people that really don't know campground etiquette come here.  We find that people don't understand quiet after 10PM and so forth.  Like I said, it's just a nice place to get away to.

  Elk Neck State Park Campground

  Late season camping

  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. Bathhouses were open with hot water. Nice clean bathhouses. Sites were level, spacious, spaced apart, with packed gravel surface. Back in and pull through sites available. Near the state forest with a rifle, archery, and handgun ranges including skeet shooting. In summer there is a beach on the North East River for swimming and the Turkey Point Lighthouse is nearby. The town of North East is close and is a quaint town with a Main Street and great little shops. Woodys famous crab house is there along with other restaurants. Turkey Point Vineyard is nearby. There are views of the Elk River from many sites. Stayed in the North East loop and there are mini cabins available as well.

  Elk Neck State Park Campground

  Father’s Day weekend

  Stayed on the full hook-up North East loop (incline or decline into some of the sites, well spaced). Cleanest state park bathroom in all of MD! Activities included: the town of North East (15min away), loop hike to the Turkey Point Lighthouse at sunset, and hanging out on the Elk river (fishing/kayaking). At least four play grounds throughout the camp loops. The North East River, where the park’s main beach area is located had failed it’s latest bacteria level test. Check out theswimguide.org for the latest water quality tests. Only 1hr away from Baltimore and you don’t have to cross the Bay Bridge.

  Tucquan Park Family Campground

  Some nice features

  We stayed here for a few days for a quick getaway. Our 3 young kids enjoyed the playground the most — there were lots of fun things for the kids on the playground. There was also a nice pond — it looked pretty full of fish, but we had forgotten our fishing gear. We had hoped for paddle boats which were advertised — but there was just one pretty unusable boat. The campground was pretty quiet with a lot of long term residents. We were originally supposed to be in the woods — which FYI is far out of the way of the main activities, and also has a pretty steep incline. But the site was too uneven for our taste so we moved down in the main area, which was better for us. The spots are pretty close together but thankfully we didn’t have anyone to the side of us. The staff was all very friendly and very accommodating and helpful!

  Elk Neck State Park Campground

  Nice hiking, family friendly

  Nice state park. Tons of campsites. One loop has full hookups. Careful of choosing a site if you have a big rig. The loop has tight turns and some seriously non level sites. Trails are nice and well marked. The pond loop has some amazingly old growth mountain laurels and patches of ghost flowers. The Turkey Point lighthouse hike is popular go early or late to avoid waiting for a parking spot on nice weekends. Swimming and boating on the river are popular activities too.
