Tips from RVers
Site specifics: Village Scene Park offers full hookup RV sites with specific limitations. "Located 30 miles or so northwest from 'The City of Brotherly Love,' VSP is a hodge-podge of different living accommodations... Amenities include: 30/50 electrical amp on all sites, private mailboxes, public water and sewer hook-ups," Stuart K. explains.
Water pressure concerns: Check connections upon arrival. "Upon checking in, went to my site and the pedestal electrical plug for 30A wasn't working. Got assigned a 2nd site but my camper wasn't able to park in that site. Got a 3rd site, and that one worked out good," reports David B. about Jugtown Mountain Campsites.
Leveling requirements: Bring leveling blocks as site conditions vary. "The site was nice and level side to side. Their pool looked very nice although we did not use it," notes Jonathan F. about Stonybrook RV Resort.
