Located just 3 miles West of the center of town, our Gettysburg Campground is bordered by beautiful Marsh Creek, with both shady or sunny RV sites, and a primitive tent area along the creek. We offer 260 sites, accommodating everything from a tent to literally any size RV. Gettysburg Campground is also the only campground in Gettysburg with an on-site RV repair facility. We also have rustic cabins and full-facility cottages

Gettysburg Campground

Campground has so many activities for active families. Pool,  swing sets, hosted events and theme nights and weekends. Sites are large enough for 2 tents, many Rv and seasonal rentals one main bath house and very clean potable potties scattered throughout the area. Small creek runs at the end of the grounds.. Very close to so much history, close to downtown Gettysburg with sight seeing tours offered for the battlefields, shopping and dining close by.

Close to history and so much to do, family oriented 

This was our third stay here on our somewhat annual family meetup in Gettysburg. I always appreciate the near solitude experience of this campground as 90% of the sites are RV sites, that are kept away from the tenting area. The tenting area is calm and has a creek right next to it to listen to in the evening and morning. One of the drawbacks of this campground is that a lot of the trees are black walnut trees and the squirrels do not shy away from dropping the walnuts like bombs on your head, car, or table when you're preparing breakfast.

Gear Review: I won a pair of Treadagain sandals for one of my last campground reviews and this was the first camping trip that I took with them. When I initially bought them, they gave me an abrasion cut and I contemplated sending them back, but after wearing them more, they became more comfortable and I have found them to be ideal for walking around in all day since they have thick bottoms.

Quiet, Plentiful, Not Cheap

This campground is a short drive from the battlefields and has nice enough sites, however being along the water there could be serious flooding. We had to evacuate after the first of our three night stay. Also beware of the elderly gentleman who leads you to your site. Don't let him guide you in as he backed three of our group into a tree.

nice sites along the water

We go for Halloween Weekend every year. Wonderfully organized, lots of activities for kids, and a fun costume competition/parade! They also hold a camp wide trick-or-treating session, and even a dance for the bigger kids in the clubhouse. A small campstore carries most if not all necessities you might need, and staff is knowledgeable and willing to answer any troubleshooting/general questions you may have about the camp and surrounding area.

Wonderfully family friendly, and great community atmosphere!

It is a wonderful place to have Kids. tons of things for them to do. we were in tent sites which felt bigger than most and were right by river. not far to go anywhere walking. porta potties were cleanest I have ever seen even with a ton of recent rain. lots of history nearby .

small sites!! but tons to do!!

Very fun family friendly getaway for the weekend. Close to Gettysburg Battleground. 

Gettysburg Getaway

This is a great campground - quiet.  The stream around the perimeter was very nice.  We had a primitive site for tents, but wish we had gotten one with water and electricity.  There were portapotties that were clean when we got there, but they didn't dump out after the weekend.  We were right across from them, so we could smell them.   In laws stayed at a full RV site which was only a short walk for us to get to them.  Both sites were nice, but again, I wish we could have gotten a site with hookups closer to them to make the family camping experience more enjoyable.  

  

The pool was quite refreshing, the store was nice, but quaint.  The mini golf was very very basic, but the fact that it was free made up for it.  It was about a five minute drive to the downtown area which was wonderful to walk around when we got there.  Also a couple of blocks from the battlefield which was really cool.  We had a couple of day drives to lancaster while we were there.  

  
Because we left most days, it didn't bother us that they only had activities during the weekends.  That might be an issue for some.  We also brought our dog and they had special bins and supplies installed for poop bags.  

  

One of the evenings, we had a large rainstorm and they filled in all the deep puddles and holes in the driving roads with crushed stone.  They are on top of that upkeep making it easier for those hauling campers to not have any surprises on their way out.  

  

All in all, I would definitely stay here again.

Quaint clean Campground - Family Friendly

If you’re looking for a backwoods, off-the-beaten-path type of campground, this isn’t it. If you are looking for a campground that is very close to an historical National Park not to mention shopping and restaurants, this is for you. 

  

The amenities of Gettysburg Campground are quite good: full hookups with cable, all working as expected. Level sites, friendly and efficient staff, decently sized sites long enough for my 32’ coach and a toad. The two drawbacks are that the sites are quite packed together and the noise of traffic– at least in the frontmost sites– can get rather loud at night. However, the proximity to Gettysburg National Park can’t be beat.

Very close to Gettysburg

We got a buddy site. It was nice to be door to door with our friends joining us. The campground was empty the last weekend in March. The campground is easy to get to. Our GPS took us through the battlegrounds which was a pleasant surprise on the way in. 

The amenities were pretty standard. They did have 4 wheeler bikes that were free to rent. 



Nice campground

Quiet, shady campground with lots of trees and backed up to Marsh Creek. Our bunkhouse sleepers (back of camper) had the trickle of water to fall asleep to and wake up to each day. 

Very nice and accommodating staff although we didn’t have much reason to interact with them. 

Dated and limited amenities with the exception of the swimming pool (which was still closed at the time for the chilly weather).  The mini-golf looked like it was from the 1960’s…😂. We found it cute and amusing. 

Easy access to drive to battlefield and downtown Gettysburg. 

Pet friendly. 

Great Acces to Battlefield 

Great place. Friendly staff and bonus that it’s pet friendly. Watch out for falling black walnuts in October. We heard them hitting ours and other rigs during our three day stay. Gets very quiet at 10pm even when the place is packed.

Nice place to stay with history all around!

I have spent almost every summer here since 2010. Great amenities and clean camping areas.  The original owners were friendly and helpful 

Great Camp site

Small sites but some are along the creek. Playground and mini golf available. Close to battlefields
