    Quakerwoods Campground and Lake Towhee County Park accept pets throughout their facilities, offering tent sites, RV hookups, and cabins for campers traveling with animals. Both locations enforce on-leash policies in common areas, with designated pet exercise zones available near camping loops. The tent sites at Lake Towhee provide more seclusion for reactive dogs, with sites spaced far apart in a deciduous forest setting. Very private and set back in the woods, these sites offer a secluded camping experience while remaining a short drive from larger recreation areas. Camping with dogs requires advance reservations at most facilities, especially during peak summer months when pet-friendly sites fill quickly.

    Tohickon Family Campground's riverfront trails provide excellent dog walking opportunities, though the green-tinged water makes swimming less appealing for pets. All campgrounds require proof of current rabies vaccination and limit pets to two per site with additional fees ranging from $3-8 per night. The surrounding Bucks County area features several dog-friendly hiking trails including South Mountain Trail and portions of the Upper Bucks Rail Trail with miles of wilderness to explore. Boulder Woods Campground enforces quiet hours at 11pm which helps reduce barking disturbances between neighboring sites. Nearby veterinary services are available in Quakertown, approximately 10-15 minutes from most campgrounds, with emergency pet care available at the Quakertown Veterinary Clinic.

      Hickory Run State Park Campground

      Peaceful State Park Camping in the Fall

      This is a large campground with a wide array of campsites so be careful attention when you book online, especially if you have a pet because some sites are not pet-friendly. Some are 50-amp full hook-up and some are primitive with no hook-ups. 

      There is a nice nature center with interesting interpretive exhibits and lots of informational brochures including ones about the hiking trails, bears, scat and tracks of local animals, and fishing. Our site was at the edge of the campground and backed up to Route 534 which resulted in a bit of road noise at our site. Other than the road noise the campground was pretty quiet and was not very crowded when we camped there in October. 

      Not all sites are level and we happened to book one that was not and we had to live with a slant for our stay. The roads in the park are gravel/dirt and since it rained the day we arrived the roads were a muddy mess which made the roads slippery and there were lots of potholes. Unfortunately, some campers were disrespectful and left bags of trash in the fire pit and scattered around their site which was totally unnecessary because there were dumpsters plenty of dumpsters in the campground. Since we camped at Hickory Run late in the season, there were no camp hosts and the trash never got picked up. 

      The campground is open from mid-April to mid-December; however, the shower facilities and dump station are not available after the third week of October so plan accordingly. We really like the hiking trails which are of varying degrees of difficulty and lengths. The Hawk Falls is a nice easy walk (1.4 miles round-trip) to a waterfall but is extremely popular so don’t think you will be admiring the falls alone. The parking lot at this trail head fills up fast so you better get there early if you want to get a spot. 

      You can enter the park from two different directions. If you have a big-rig, it is best to approach from the east side. We made the mistake of coming in from the west side as we dropped down from I-80 and came down 534 and the road was really windy with no shoulder. Luckily, there was very little traffic so we could go 10 mph and safely navigate the roads. 

      Be aware alcohol is not allowed in PA state parks. This park does allow hunting in certain sections of the park. The no-hunting areas are clearly marked with white no hunting signs on trees and you can also pick up a brochure from the office that designates hunting and no-hunting sections.

      Washington Crossing State Park - TEMP CLOSED FOR 2024

      Revolutionary History near Delaware River

      Nestled along the picturesque Delaware River in beautiful Bucks County, Washington Crossing Historic Park is one of those destinations where American history practically jumps out from behind every tree. This sprawling, beautifully preserved historic park commemorates George Washington's daring Christmas night crossing of the Delaware in 1776, with charming colonial buildings, expansive green spaces, shaded walking paths and lovely riverfront scenery. Divided into Upper and Lower sections, the park offers plenty to explore, from historic homesteads and interpretive exhibits to scenic picnic areas and the impressive Bowman's Hill Tower. Unfortunately, while the park delivers a wonderful outdoor experience, traditional overnight camping isn't part of the equation unless your a Boy Scout or accompanying one of their troops.

      HIGHLIGHTS: (1) Spectacular Revolutionary War history at the very site of Washington's legendary Delaware River crossing; (2) Beautifully maintained grounds featuring mature trees, open lawns and scenic riverfront views; (3) Fascinating colonial-era buildings, historic demonstrations and educational exhibits that bring America's founding history to life; (4) Wonderful recreational opportunities, including walking, cycling, fishing, kayaking and picnicking; and (5) Convenient proximity to charming New Hope, the Delaware Canal towpath and Bowman's Hill Tower, offering plenty of opportunities to extend your adventure. 

      LOWLIGHTS: (1) No conventional public tent or RV camping, with overnight group camping restricted to organized Scout groups by prior arrangement; (2) No dedicated RV campsites, electrical hookups, water connections or dump station; (3) Park grounds generally close at sunset, limiting opportunities to linger into the evening; (4) Some historic buildings and attractions require admission fees or operate on limited schedules; and (5) Periodic restoration projects and special events can restrict access to certain areas, while the historic Washington Crossing Bridge's three-ton weight limit makes it unsuitable for larger RVs. 

      Happy Camping!

      Lowe's - W Windsor

      Upscale Parking Paradise at This Home Fixer-Upper

      Located just off US Route 1 in the upscale Princeton area, this spacious Lowe's serves up a surprisingly pleasant patch of pavement for weary road warriors looking to catch some shut-eye. Set back roughly 80 yards from the highway, this big blue home improvement retailer offers a generously sized parking lot with relatively manageable traffic, good maneuverability and a quieter atmosphere than you might expect from such a busy suburban retail corridor. The western and southern edges of the lot are particularly appealing for an overnight stay, and with Trader Joe's, Starbucks and several other retailers nearby, convenience certainly isn't in short supply. Better yet, the store management was friendly and accommodating when we called ahead to arrange our overnight visit. 

      HIGHLIGHTS: (1) Spacious, paved parking lot with plenty of room to maneuver larger rigs; (2) Convenient access to US Route 1 and nearby I-95; (3) Western and southern parking areas offer quieter spots away from the busiest customer traffic; (4) Excellent nearby conveniences, including Trader Joe's, Starbucks and several dining options; and (5) Friendly store management that welcomed our overnight stay, plus surprisingly good opportunities for outdoor recreation nearby. 

      LOWLIGHTS: (1) Some daytime retail traffic and occasional road noise, although nothing terribly disruptive; (2) No RV hookups, dump station or dedicated overnight camping facilities; (3) Parking areas closest to the store can become crowded during business hours; (4) Limited greenery and little of the scenery you'd expect from a traditional campground; and (5) While the overnight experience was excellent, this is still a commercial parking lot rather than a destination for an extended stay. 

      Happy Overnighting!

      100 Mile View Camping

      The best views

      This is a hidden gem, as close to dispersed camping you can get with dirt, gravel roads, large stone fire pits, a amazing views with the added benefit of a five gallon jug of non potable water and very clean port-a-potties. The owner regularly patrols the site and makes sure everything is okay.

      Round Valley State Park Campground

      Peaceful Wilderness Escape for Adventurous Families

      There's something wonderfully special about escaping into nature where the only sounds are rustling leaves, birds singing and the gentle movement of water along the shoreline. Nestled among the wooded hills surrounding the beautiful Round Valley Reservoir, this rustic SP campground offers families a chance to disconnect from everyday distractions and enjoy a little wilderness adventure together. Unlike traditional campgrounds, the campsites are accessible only by hiking or boating, so getting anywhere here requires some planning and a willingness to travel light. Once you've arrived, you'll find secluded, wooded campsites with picnic tables, fire rings and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors. Amenities are basic, with pit toilets and no showers, but the beautiful reservoir, scenic hiking trails, fishing and kayaking opportunities more than make up for the lack of modern conveniences. Our kids loved exploring the woods, spotting wildlife and gathering around a crackling campfire at night to share stories beneath the stars. For families comfortable with the hike, I'd recommend choosing one of the campsites along the reservoir shoreline for the lovely water views and peaceful surroundings. Just remember that swimming is limited to the park's designated beach area. Round Valley isn't your typical family campground, but for adventurous families who enjoy hiking, camping under the stars and making wonderful memories together, it's a beautiful place to experience nature at its finest!

      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.

      Tohickon Family Campground

      Simple, peaceful FHU

      We stayed just a couple nights here on our way north. The camp host was helpful before our stay and during check-in. Our site was pretty isolated from the others, so it was very quiet (no complaints here). There is a decent mix of sunny sites by the river and shady sites under the trees. The weather was perfect mid September. There wasn't anything spectacular for me, but it was a good experience and it was a nice taste of fall PA scenery. Beware that the roads are tight for a big rig. Side note, it did seem like most campers lived there.

      Hickory Run State Park Campground

      Beautiful forest

      Gorgeous forested area in the Poconos. We stayed on the Rattlesnake Loop which was lovely. Sites not super private but most nestled in trees. The only bummer was that that Campground Loop didn’t have any direct links to the trail network and was far from it. The other Campground Loop was closer to trails and office. Would return!

    Guide to Coopersburg

    Coopersburg sits at approximately 400 feet above sea level in the rolling hills of southeastern Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley. The surrounding woodlands transition between oak-hickory forests and riparian zones along creek beds. Spring camping often brings nighttime temperatures down to the 40s while summer highs regularly reach the upper 80s with moderate humidity.

    What to do

    Disc golf adventures: Boulder Woods Campground features an extensive disc golf course that attracts enthusiasts from throughout the region. "They also have a disc golf course and they rent and sell discs. That's where we fell in love with disc golf," explains Erik W. The course winds through wooded terrain, making it challenging for both beginners and experienced players.

    Waterfront activities: At Nockamixon State Park Cabins, the large lake provides numerous recreation options. "Great place to picnic fish from land or boat, go for a nice scenic walk, go Kayaking, etc. If you don't own a boat, you can rent one right at the lake," notes J K. The park maintains boat rentals from April through October with kayaks starting at $15/hour.

    Musical rock exploration: The unique geological formation at Ringing Rocks County Park creates an unusual attraction. "Bring a hammer," suggests Gregg G., as the rocks produce metallic sounds when struck. The site is just a 2-minute drive from Ringing Rocks Family Campground, making it easily accessible for campers.

    What campers like

    Private tent sites: Several campgrounds offer secluded tent camping options away from RV areas. "The tent sites are very private, and secluded tent sites with clean facilities for when you need some civilization," mentions Keith about Ringing Rocks Family Campground. These sites typically require more walking but provide greater solitude.

    Seasonal activities: Campgrounds organize regular events throughout the camping season. "They had so much for the kids to do! Friendly staff and clean sites!" Shannon C. notes about Halloween weekend at Ringing Rocks. Most dog friendly campgrounds near Coopersburg maintain activity calendars from April through October.

    Forest setting: Lake Towhee County Park provides a true woodlands experience. "Very secluded and set back in the woods, but only a short drive to Nockamixon. Would definitely stay again!" reports Emily G. The deciduous forest setting creates natural boundaries between campsites, with tent sites spaced approximately 50-100 feet apart.

    What you should know

    Site surfaces vary: Campground terrain differs significantly between locations. "Sites are very close together. Site numbers are on the back of the sites, very hard to see from the road," Kim B. cautions about Colonial Woods Family Resort. Many campgrounds use gravel or stone for RV sites while tent areas may be dirt or grass.

    Weather considerations: The region receives approximately 48 inches of rainfall annually, which can affect campsite conditions. "Don't come if your in a tent And It Has Been ior will rain, It Becomes Flooded or turns into A mudPit," warns LU D. about Tohickon Family Campground. Sites near creeks or in low-lying areas are particularly susceptible to flooding.

    Reservation timing: Pet-friendly camping options fill quickly during peak season. "Very private and set back in the woods, these sites offer a secluded camping experience while remaining a short drive from larger recreation areas," notes one camper. Most campgrounds require reservations 2-3 months in advance for summer weekends.
