    Several RV parks near Branchton accommodate large motorhomes with varying amenities. RV Village Camping Resort in Mercer provides electric, water, and sewer hookups with 50-amp service for big rigs from April through October. Rustic Acres in Shippenville offers 100 sites with full hookups and operates year-round. Jellystone Park at Kozy Rest features 312 RV sites with both 30-amp and 50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections. Bear Run Campground contains 300 sites suitable for RVs with full hookup options and gravel pads. "This campground is deceptively big! The nightly RV sites are close to the park entrance and are relatively flat."

    Full hookup RV sites throughout the region vary significantly in level and spacing. Most campgrounds provide dump stations, though some parks like Chestnut Ridge offer sewer hookups directly at premium sites. Cell service ranges from robust coverage at Mountain Top Campground to spotty reception at more remote locations. Seasonal operation affects availability, with most parks closing between late October and early April. Navigation to certain campgrounds requires attention to specific routes, as standard GPS directions occasionally lead down unsuitable roads for larger rigs. Many campgrounds accommodate pets but enforce leash policies. Several parks feature on-site camp stores selling essential supplies, firewood, and ice, though grocery options may be limited in the immediate area.

      Tomlinson Run State Park Campground

      Nice little State Park

      Tomlinson Run is a small state park situated in the northern panhandle of West Virginia nestled between eastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania. Plenty of things to do there including but not limited to…. Mini golf, hiking trails, biking, swimming, fishing, paddle boats, parks for the kids, and of course the camping. The campsites here are mainly gravel pads with the exception being the asphalt handicapped spots (2). Most spots are 30 amp with a few 50 amp (new for 2021). The park also has a few primitive spots available and some yurts and cabins to rent. I have a 38’ fifth wheel and the spots are tight for it (even the couple pull thru). Campground facilities are clean but dated. They state new facilities are coming soon. The campground is at the top of a hill and the spots are wooded and shaded. I would consider the camping to be spaced generously (room to stretch out). They have a small camp store and information available. A breakfast is available during peak season for a small fee. They do have water and a dump station available (free for campers to use).

      Bear Run Campground

      Loads to do...!

      This campground is deceptively big! The nightly RV sites are close to the park entrance and are relatively flat. The campground hosts themed events, game nights and arts& crafts. There is a swimming pool and playground for the kids. It also has a small café that sells baked goods and coffee. On Saturdays they sell amazing Armish Donuts! 

      Further into the campground the sites turn to more permanent sites. Further up the hill are more cottages and camping. This campground is steep in parts and too large to walk efficiently. There is a fenced dog run area and a beautiful lake. All sites have fire rings. There is an onsite laundry, WIFI, onsite dump station and propane refill station. 

      You can also buy ice and firewood. The campground is gated. Lots to do at the campground and lots to do in the surrounding area. They welcome all furry friends!

      Raccoon Creek State Park Campground

      Raccoon Creek Camping

      This is a large state park offering electric only sites

      The sites are set amounts the forest and there are several loops to choose from. Loop F is pet friendly. All sites are within walking distance to amenities 

      Amenities are quite run down but functional 

      Wildlife is beautiful and its a short ~10min drive to the beach area of Raccoon Creek lake. 

      Two (2) dump station spots and fresh water taps location throughout the park 

      NOTE: Many sites are not level, you will require blocks/timber to level out campers. Tent campers should choose their site using the photos on the state park site. 

      All sites have a paved car space.

      Mercer-Grove City KOA

      Really nice!

      Very well maintained campground with lots of amenities, esp for kids (pool, playground). Generous sized sites, not too close together. Looks like quite a few long-term RVers here. Cute chickens wandering around. Hiking trail accessible from the campsite. Heavily wooded and quiet, but not too far off interstate.

      Mosquito Lake State Park Campground

      Beautiful campground, choose your site wisely

      When we arrived, we checked in at the camp office. The ladies there were very kind. The roads through the campground are wide enough for two-way traffic and nicely paved.

      This is a beautiful, heavily treed campground. Even on Memorial Day weekend with lots of people, the park was very peaceful. The sounds of birds permeate the air round the clock. Chipmunks run amok. They’re just so cute.

      We booked site 56 for our 39’ fifth wheel. As soon as we pulled up, we knew there was no way we’d fit even though the reservation site said it would accommodate a 40’ rig. The camp hosts happened to be passing by as we were surveying the site. They were very helpful redirecting us to a nearby site that would be more suitable. FYI, sites 55 and 56 have deep culverts on either side. One wrong turn and you’re going to have a problem. The majority of sites along our road were just wide enough to keep the tires out of the dirt, but not wide enough for the stairs to land on asphalt. If you have a motorhome or other wide-bodied rig, like an Alliance Paradigm, I would recommend choosing one of the sites on the loop around the playground. Those are better suited for newer big rigs.

      TIP…the line at the dump station is long on the holiday weekends. Plan accordingly.

      Tomlinson Run State Park Campground

      Very wooded campground

      General: 50-site (all but six with electric hookups) campground plus two yurts and three cabins. Two sites are handicap accessible. 

      Site Quality: The sites have gravel pads (except the handicap-accessible ones which were paved). The sites were completely covered with leaves when we were there which made it challenging to determine where the actual (narrow) pad was. Sites appeared to be level. A fire ring and wooden picnic table complete the site. 

      Bathhouse: A little dated but clean. Two of the stall doors did not latch properly. Didn't use the shower so cannot comment but there was a sign indicating it took a while for the water to warm up.

      Activities/Amenities: There is a small camper store, laundry, and a playground. In season, there is lake swimming and a boat dock. There is a fishing area, mini-golf and disc golf, and several short hiking trails. Unfortunately, since we arrived late afternoon and had to depart early the following day (and were camping off-season), we could not take advantage of any of these things. What we lose in activities, we gain in a quieter camping experience with fewer crowds, which is generally preferable for us!

      Tionesta Rec. Area Campground

      Nice COE

      There was not a real address to set our RV GPS. Waze and Google maps will pull up directions by entering Tionesta Recreation Area. We came in from the west on US-6 to PA-66, and up PA-36. From I-80, take the exit for PA-36 then follow the signs to Tionesta and once you get near you'll see the Tionesta Recreation Area Signs. There are signs to the boat launch area so pay attention and follow the camping signs; the campground(CG) is on the right. If you come in from Tionesta, once you clear the town the CG area is to the left. We arrived on a Sunday afternoon around 3:00 PM and the COE entrance building was not manned, so we took a picture of the CG map and proceeded to back-in site 100 with 50 AMP FHUs. There were no obstacles so our back-in was one and done. The site was just long enough for our 39’ fifth wheel(recreation.gov stated max length 48 ft RV) and we had to park our F450 diagonally in front. We noticed that the site post already had our names and dates of stay. The utilities were about 3/4 the way to the back of the site so no problems with sewer, water, or electric cord lengths. The water pressure was okay at about 42 psi. We did not receive any OTA channels but this site and several others back up to a huge berm so you can get satellite. Most of the sites in the CG have mature trees so the satellite is iffy. We got 2 bars on Verizon. The site lengths vary in the CG and the lengths from the reservation site seemed to be fairly correct. There were quite a few larger rigs here. Most if not all of the sites in this CG are full hookups. We noticed that some were 30/20 AMP. Sites closer to the front of the CG, especially along the river, tend to be close to each other. We found that the 90s- 100s area has the best site spacing with site 100 being one of the most spacious sites. After watching a 40’ 5th wheel struggle to back into site 113, we decided this site is not a good choice for rigs over 35 feet or for someone with below-average backing abilities due to the obstacles getting into the site. The pad angles at 90 degrees, there’s a ditch across the road from the site making it difficult to swing the tow vehicle, and there are trees to avoid. We enjoyed walking our dogs through the CG and watching the groundhogs in the rocks behind our site. We noted during our 4-day stay towards the end of June that restaurants and other sights such as museums may be closed Monday, Tuesday, and/or Wednesday. Get out and explore PA Route 666, which includes the Nebraska bridge, Tall Oaks Gift Shop, and Frog rock.

      Shenango Campground

      Huge COE

      After getting off I80, our RV GPS wanted to take us on a wonky route, so we followed Waze and the campground’s(CG) web instructions that took us across the causeway on N. Hermitage Rd, then a right turn off on Birchwood Rd, which led us to take a left turn back across N. Hermitage Rd to get back to the Shenango Rec Area turn. Once we got to the CG, check in was quick and very easy. Just happened, our next door neighbor/camp host checked us in and told us we could get water off their site so we proceeded straight to site 199 that’s a back in with electric(50/30 AMP) only plus one of the better spaced sites in the CG. We had to maneuver a couple of times to get into the 90 degree site but the road was wide with no obstacles to prevent swinging into the site. We quickly found out that our 50 AMP connection had issues and after reporting it, a maintenance crew came within 20 minutes and fixed a bad breaker. We got 3 bars on Verizon and a handful of OTA channels. Due to the amount of mature trees, satellite would be iffy depending on your site. There are no FHU sites(camp host sites have electric& water). Electric sites are centrally grouped within the loops and spaced closer together than most COEs. The majority of the sites within this CG are dry camping and they too are fairly close together. The sites right on the lake were all dry camping. With all the dry camping sites in this CG, its nice that they allow generator use during non quiet hours. Quiet hours here are 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM. There are water spigots periodically located within the loops and the CG map identifies where they are. There’s also a two-lane dump station located near the entrance but there is no potable water. There are signs stating no alcohol in the park, but people were openly drinking. We also noted that the contractors who clean the restroom/shower facilities start early in the morning and close the facility while cleaning, which was inconvenient for the dry campers just waking up. If we were to stay at this CG again, we’d come during the week and get a dry camping site on the water.

    Guide to Branchton

    RV sites near Branchton, Pennsylvania range from family-oriented destinations to more secluded options within 30 miles of town. The region lies within the Allegheny Plateau with elevations between 1,100-1,400 feet, creating moderate hills throughout campgrounds. Many camping areas maintain operation from April through October, with limited wintertime availability due to northwestern Pennsylvania's snowfall patterns.

    What to do

    Fishing access: Chestnut Ridge Park and Campground features a lake for fishing and swimming activities. "Our family really enjoyed staying here, and our kids especially loved swimming and fishing in the lake. In the evening, we bought some firewood from the campground owners for our bonfire," notes camper Sabrina D.

    Trail exploration: Breakneck Campground offers direct access to McConnells Mill State Park trails. "From our campsite we walked along the creek into McConnells Mill State Park and joined the covered bridge trail. Approx. 30min walk along the creek down into McConnells Mill State Park," shares Britt B.

    Fall festival activities: Cooper's Lake Campground hosts seasonal events throughout summer and fall. "This campground is only accessible during large events, and they do a really good job of organizing everything to work within the confines of the event," explains Elliott B.

    What campers like

    Creek-side camping: Breakneck Campground offers creek-adjacent primitive sites separate from the main camping area. "We definitely lucked out with one of the best campsites; we were right next to the creek, it was super spacious and super private," notes Taylor S.

    Weekend activities: Rustic Acres organizes structured programs for younger campers. "We were thrilled to find they had a children's program on Saturday mornings. Our children had a ball making crafts, playing games, finding items on a scavenger hunt and of course snacks!" mentions Misty L.

    Well-maintained facilities: Jellystone Park at Kozy Rest receives consistent praise for cleanliness. "Great campground and very clean. Probably the cleanest shower house I have ever seen at a campground," reports John M.

    What you should know

    Weather considerations: Fombell Landing sits in a flood-prone area requiring weather monitoring. "The campground is entirely in a flood zone. It gets so deep the locals cars have floated away... Our camp area ended up in at least 6 inches of rushing creek water," warns Jacqueline K.

    Seasonal operation: Most campgrounds in the region operate between May and October, with Rustic Acres being an exception. "We are traveling across country. This campground is easy access to I80, Less than 10 minutes. It is very clean, amazingly helpful staff," notes Dave B.

    Site spacing variation: Bear Run Campground offers both densely packed and more private locations. "The nightly RV sites are close to the park entrance and are relatively flat. Further into the campground the sites turn to more permanent sites," explains Britt B.

    Tips for camping with families

    Children's programs: Jellystone Park at Kozy Rest schedules regular activities for children. "We love camping at Jellystone at Kozy Rest! Staff is super friendly and campground is always very clean. Tons of activities to keep the kids busy all day!!" shares Pam O.
