Mill Creek Camping Area sits within Lancaster County Central Park, a hike-in or walk-in site along a stream that stays notably cool in summer heat. The campground is open March 15 through November 15 and provides drinking water, firewood, picnic tables, and fire rings. One practical note: the site runs through a well-used public park, so expect foot traffic from joggers and hikers throughout the day. Pets are allowed. Campers wanting a more developed setup may want to look at Thousand Trails Circle M as an alternative, or browse campgrounds near Lancaster for additional options in the area.
