Lower Allen Community Park

Anglers and paddlers will find direct access to Yellow Breeches Creek at this small township campground with just three walk-in sites. Lower Allen Community Park requires advance reservations through the township office and locks its gates at dusk, creating a controlled camping environment in suburban Pennsylvania.

The sites sit directly along the creek, allowing campers to launch kayaks or canoes upstream and float back to their campsite. Each site includes a fire pit, picnic table, and access to portable restrooms, with parking available nearby despite the walk-in designation. The rough access road adds a rustic element to an otherwise accessible location for campsites near Lewisberry visitors seeking creek-side camping.

Great for Kayak Camping

Cute site in a local township park that not many people know about. There actually three total. You just need to call the township to reserve. The sites sit right along the Yellow Breeches creak so you can put in a few miles up and float down to your site. There is parking right there. The park is in the suburbs so it’s close to lots of things. They do lock the park at dusk though. They have portapotties, fire pits, and picnic tables.
