    Spring Gulch Resort Campground near New Holland provides 30/50-amp electric hookups, water, sewer connections, and accommodates large motorhomes on gravel sites open from March through December. Sun Valley Campground in Narvon features full hookup sites with electric, water, and sewer connections, operating from April to November with a 4.2/5 rating. Thousand Trails PA Dutch Country in Manheim offers 267 back-in and pull-through sites with full hookups, while Appalachian Camping Resort in Shartlesville accommodates big rigs with 50-amp service on sites available April through October. "The sites were level, covered in clean gravel, had a paver patio with table and chairs, and a nice fire ring with more chairs. Full hook-ups with 50-amp service all worked fine."

    RV campgrounds near Atglen range from large resort-style parks with pull-through sites to smaller county facilities, giving drivers of all rig sizes options across Chester and Lancaster counties. Navigating into some parks requires careful planning, particularly for larger motorhomes. At Philadelphia/West Chester KOA, one reviewer noted: "I did have major trouble backing in because the road is too narrow for a 45' motorhome to back in on a nearly 90-degree angle." Most RV parks in the region provide dump stations, though Hibernia County Park lacks this amenity. Cell service varies significantly—Verizon coverage at Lake-In-Wood Campground was reported as poor while AT&T maintained better connectivity. Many parks close for winter, typically operating April through October. Pet-friendly sites are available at most locations, though restrictions apply in certain loops or areas. Propane refill stations are common amenities at the larger resorts, including Spring Gulch and Pinch Pond Family Campground.

      3.8(16)8mi from AtglenRVs, Cabins

      "There was a craft show in the barn which was nice. Only two dump stations for a pretty large park. We would camp here again but not over a holiday."

      "The campsites available are primitive or have water and electric and bathhouses / restrooms are located in a few spots around the park. Fire rings are at each site, but appear to get moved a lot."

      2. Sun Valley Campground

      4.2(5)18mi from AtglenRVs, Cabins

      "Well wooded campground with friendly staff and guests. The only minor complaint is that the camp store was sparsely supplied. B+ little gem of a campground."

      "Showed up on Wednesday, and was assigned a spot in loop 700 up on a hill in the center of a ring of trailers, past a lot of full-timers. Cable does not work. No internet. 2 bars LTE on T-Mobile."

      5. Thousand Trails PA Dutch Country

      3.7(14)32mi from AtglenRVs, Tents, Cabins, Glamping

      7. Robin Hill Campground

      3.5(10)45mi from AtglenRVs, Cabins

      "It's too bad it is mainly seasonal sites back there. This campground is called Robin HILL for a reason. You will get you exercise walking to the pond, pool, capstone or basketball courts."

      "Although they do have sites for tents, this seems to be better suited for RVers and renting cabins. Many of the people we met during our stay are regulars."

      8. Pinch Pond Family Campground & RV Park

      4.3(16)32mi from AtglenRVs, Tents, Cabins, Glamping

      9. Thousand Trails Hershey

      3.9(23)36mi from AtglenRVs, Tents, Cabins

      Country Acres Campground

      Lovely campground!

      Country Acres is a lovely, well maintained campground. Sites are level and bath house facilities clean and modern. Friendly staff in the office. Dog friendly. Local to all the Lancaster attractions. A complimentary farmland tour is offered by bus and it was great. They take you out into an area of Amish farms and shops and make a stop at 2 of these. The fresh Amish pretzels are amazing!

      Gifford Pinchot State Park Campground

      We booked two nights mid October not realizing that it's duck hunting season and that hunting is allowed RIGHT by the campground - with kids everywhere. We were jolted out of sleep at 5 am by gun fire right near our site. It kept up for the next hour. In addition, the bathrooms, although clean are in poor condition. Peeling paint everywhere with bare concrete in the showers. For such a pretty site, we had a miserable stay. We left after one night.

      Old Mill Stream Campground

      Never Again

      The advertisements for Olde Mill Campground were disingenuous. The campsite was 20 yards from a roller coaster. The NOISE of the roller coaster and children on it screaming was as relentless and unnerving as any train we have ever slept near. There was no quiet until almost midnight. The “pull-through” site left my truck almost in the road and our 25’ Airstream slightly over the road on the backside. The site was not level. The sites were close enough to hear a neighbor’s snoring.

      Beacon Hill Camping

      Great location

      We stayed here to go to the Hershey RV show—about 55 min drive. Right in the center of Amish country. Campground is adults only. It was very clean. The bathrooms were very clean with great water pressure. The roads are tight for getting into sites. Site 5 was not level side to side. We met great people there.

      Echo Valley Campground

      Big sites with lots of trees

      We only spent the night and didn't look at the amenities. The manager was very friendly and accommodating.

      Country Acres Campground

      Excellent But.

      The campground is in excellent condition. The facilities are top notch. The excellence and care of the campground is evident. The 4 stars is only due to the road noise and many of the sites are on top of each other. You feel like your neighbor is at your camp fire.

      Circle S Farm Camping

      Grantville is great

      The area is very nice and so are the people. The sites are clean and the livestock are a cool sight to see

      Hersheypark Camping Resort

      EXPENSIVE

      There was no hot water in the showers. There are no dog poo stations. There is a dumpster marked “STAFF ONLY”. It’s nice they have a place to stuff the staff!

    Guide to Atglen

    Camping near Atglen, Pennsylvania offers easy access to Pennsylvania Dutch country with its unique Amish communities and rolling farmland. The region sits at elevations between 400-800 feet, creating varied terrain for both wooded and open-field camping experiences. Most rv parks near Atglen operate seasonally from April through October, with limited winter availability at select locations.

    What to do

    Fishing opportunities: At Lake-In-Wood Campground, campers can enjoy a well-stocked fishing pond. "Nice fishing in the lake," notes Edward M., who appreciated the convenient on-site fishing within walking distance of his campsite.

    Cultural experiences: Explore authentic Amish communities surrounding many Atglen area campgrounds. "I don't know if the Amish camp, but regardless, if you'd like to experience what it's like to go camping in Amish country then Thousand Trails PA Dutch Country RV Resort has you covered," writes Stuart K., who enjoyed the rural setting.

    Shooting activities: Some campers report proximity to shooting ranges near certain campgrounds. "There is a shooting range close by so you could hear the trucks beeping and the noise from there but that was the only negative thing," notes Jen R. about Lake-In-Wood Campground, suggesting planning around these hours if you prefer quiet afternoons.

    Water recreation: Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina offers direct water access for boating. "Camped here at the end of summer, really loved it. Had our kayaks with us and the water wasn't but a few steps away. Some sites you are right on the waters edge," shares Janet P., highlighting the convenience for water enthusiasts.

    What campers like

    Entertainment options: Many campgrounds feature organized activities throughout the day. At Thousand Trails Circle M, "We happened to be there on the weekend a magician came, my kids loved it. They have an indoor and outdoor pool. Nice playground," writes Leanne B., demonstrating the family-friendly atmosphere.

    Swimming amenities: Pools remain a popular feature at campgrounds in the region. "The pool was very nice and refreshing. I liked how the kid area wrapped around and connected to the deeper end," notes Jen R. about Robin Hill Campground, providing a positive perspective on the swimming facilities.

    Spacious sites: Some campgrounds offer notably larger sites than others. "We were down by the river and had a lot of room on our site," reports Leanne B. about Circle M, indicating the waterfront sites tend to offer more room to spread out.

    Themed accommodations: Sun Valley Campground offers unique camping experiences. "The Saturday night bands are concert worthy. We have enjoyed our stay more than you ever imagined," writes Scott J., highlighting the entertainment value beyond just the campsites.

    What you should know

    Cellular coverage variations: Service varies significantly throughout the region. "Cable does not work. No internet. 2 bars LTE on T-Mobile," reports Lori about Sun Valley Campground, suggesting campers should have backup communication plans.

    Site leveling challenges: Many campgrounds in the area have uneven terrain. "The sites were nice size and orderly. Site next to us had a pipe break, they had a maintenance crew come out immediately and fix it," notes Jwalker about Spring Gulch Resort Campground, showing quick response to maintenance issues.

    Seasonality impacts: Most campgrounds have limited shoulder season amenities. "Office is closed due to covid but the pool is open. There was a Leibys ice cream truck and food stand open the whole weekend," reported Becca U. about Sun Valley in 2020, showing adaptability during challenging times.

    Variable bathhouse conditions: Facility quality differs significantly between campgrounds. "The bathrooms were heated, and okay. I didn't care for the shower curtain system it seems less private," mentions Kasey M. about Thousand Trails PA Dutch Country, offering insight on comfort considerations.

    Tips for camping with families

    Halloween activities: October brings special events to many campgrounds. "They had Halloween ever at every weekend of October and we spent Halloween weekend here. The kids loved it!!" shares Kasey M. about Circle M, suggesting families should consider fall camping for these special activities.

    Playground access: Consider campsite proximity to play areas. "The playground was luckily right across from us up on the hill," notes Jen R. about Robin Hill Campground, highlighting the convenience of having recreation areas nearby when camping with children.

    Water features for kids: Appalachian Camping Resort offers family-friendly water activities. "Great sites. Family friendly. Lots for the kids to do," states Tracy O., pointing to the range of activities available for younger campers.

    Family programs: Look for campgrounds with organized activities. "They had a craft show in the barn which was nice," mentions Jen R. about Spring Gulch, indicating additional indoor options when weather doesn't cooperate.

    Tips from RVers

    Big rig navigation: Larger motorhomes should research access routes carefully. "Sites are very close together. Fire rings are very close to campers," warns Justin B. about Thousand Trails PA Dutch Country, cautioning about tight spacing that can complicate setup.

    Hookup reliability: Water quality varies between campgrounds. "Water was rusty in our row came out brown at first then was tan after running through our filter for the entire stay," shares Justin B. about Thousand Trails PA Dutch Country, suggesting bringing filtration systems.

    Arrival timing: Many campgrounds have specific arrival protocols. "We got pretty lucky and were assigned one of the concrete pads that was pretty level," reports Nick E. about Circle M, indicating the advantage of securing premium sites when available.

    Site selection strategy: At Pinch Pond Family Campground & RV Park, site location matters. "From a foodie standpoint, take my word for it, there is VERY little around these parts and what you can find nearby are local joints," advises Stuart K., emphasizing the importance of bringing supplies.
