Reservations are available at Drummer Boy Camping Resort, a drive-in RV resort managed by Encore in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, open April 1 through October 31. The campground spans over 95 acres of forested land, with pull-through sites accommodating rigs up to 70 feet and full hookups including electric, water, and sewer. Roads through the property are gravel and narrow in sections, with some one-way stretches that campers report are frequently ignored, particularly by the large number of golf carts circulating the grounds. Parking a standard vehicle near your site can be a challenge given how many carts are in use.
Site quality varies by location within the resort. Wooded sites in the transient sections tend to have tree cover on the sides, which provides some separation from neighbors, though several reviewers note that sites can be narrow and not all fire pits or tables sit level with the camper pad. One reported issue: sewer connections in certain areas are positioned close to ground level, which can interfere with proper drainage. The camp store is limited in inventory relative to the size of the operation, and the mini golf course has drawn mixed feedback on its upkeep. Two pools, a splash pad, a fishing pond, and organized weekend events including live music and golf cart parades round out the on-site activity calendar.
Gettysburg National Military Park is roughly ten minutes from the campground, making Drummer Boy a functional base for history-focused trips. Campers interested in camping near Gettysburg will find a range of options in the area, including Artillery Ridge Campground a few miles to the southwest. As camper F. puts it, the resort is "quiet during the week, weekends quite busy." Nightly rates for full hookup sites have run between $80 and $110 depending on the season, so booking well in advance for holiday weekends is advisable.
