Hermitage State Park Campground

5 ReviewsAdd Review

Within Hermitage State Park, this state-managed campground provides both drive-in and walk-in access along the shores of Pomme de Terre Lake. The facility accommodates big rigs and maintains ADA accessibility, though pets are not permitted on the grounds. Standard non-electric sites offer level terrain, while amenities include drinking water, restrooms, a dump station, and available firewood.

The campground operates with an open layout that works well for family camping and cycling. Clean facilities feature private showers, and the grounds include a camp store and playground. "Lots of fishing activities here on the lake," notes Luckybreak R., with shore fishing access available directly from the swimming beach area. WiFi and cell service help campers stay connected during their stay.

Site spacing varies throughout the campground, with some areas experiencing more crowding than others. Senior campers can take advantage of reduced rates on standard sites. The park rangers maintain a visible presence, contributing to a family-friendly atmosphere where children can safely ride bikes around the camping loops.

Many mentioned the family-friendly atmosphere with clean facilities, private showers, and excellent recreational opportunities including fishing and swimming. Visitors repeatedly highlighted the pleasant staff and reasonable pricing, particularly for seniors.

Clean facilities , great hosts.

We picked a standard non electric site as it was level and not crowded. $8 for seniors so not bad. Lots of fishing activities here on the lake. Would stay longer if we had the time.

This campground is very wide open and great for family camping, the main facilities are clean and showers are private. It has a camp store, playground and a great swim beach with places to fish from the shore. The campground is perfect for bike riding as well.
