We stayed at Lakewood Park Campground in Barnesville, PA, for a few days for R&R. And we got it! 

THINGS I LIKED: 

• This place has the best of an old-fashioned campground with a great layout. But it offers modern amenities and utilities in a natural setting. 

• Family owned and operated by folks who take great pride in offering a really nice place to stay. 

• About 30-minutes to Jim Thorpe, PA, or Lehigh Valley Zoo. 

• The place is filled with mature shade trees which offer some protection from the sun and a beautiful setting. But they take great care to remove problem trees and branches from the sites and roads. 

• Fun activities during our stay included bingo and a food truck. 

• Our site(#74) was plenty big enough for our 45’ motorhome and Jeep plus lots of room to spread out. 

• The park is relatively new. Everything is clean and in great working order. All kinds of maintenance was going on throughout each day, and it shows. 

• I contacted the campground by email after 11pm to inquire about availability to arrive a day early. I sent an email rather than a phone call as I had no expectation of a response until at least the next day. They replied within minutes, adjusted my reservation, sent a revised confirmation email, and didn’t ask for payment until I arrived for check-in. Wow, that’s top-notch service! 

THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE SO MUCH: 

• Traveling to this campground requires driving several steep grades(8+%). Do your best, drive slowly, and stay focused. Of course, it’s not the campground’s fault, just something to be aware of when planning to visit. 

WOULD WE COME BACK? 

• Absolutely, this is a nice place.
