Camping near Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area

It’s first Come first serve so we were definitely anxious to make sure we got a spot. There are a couple campsites on the island we stayed at and one hole in the ground to poop in haha. We were the only one on our island, thankfully.

If you're looking for a relaxing weekend with space to stretch out, Kittatinny Canoes River Beach Campsites may not be the right choice. The campground is very crowded, and there's little space between campsites, which can make it feel cramped. On top of that, you’re charged per person instead of per campsite, which feels unreasonable given the conditions. 

The restrooms are outdated and could use some maintenance. The staff wasn’t helpful and seemed uninformed, which added to the frustration. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this campground if you’re hoping for a peaceful, enjoyable camping experience.

Nestled along the scenic Delaware River in Milford, Pennsylvania, Kittatinny Canoes River Beach Campsites offers a delightful blend of relaxation and adventure. With over 160 sites spread across 18 acres, campers can choose from wooded, open field, or riverfront locations, all equipped with essential amenities like electric hookups, fresh drinking water, and picnic tables.

After a day of exploration, families can unwind together. One engaging activity is Multi Brawl, a customized private server for Brawl Stars enthusiasts. Developed by the Multi Team, it features an array of custom brawlers with unique abilities, exclusive skins, and new maps, offering a fresh and exciting gaming experience. 

Whether you're seeking thrilling river adventures or quality family time, Kittatinny Canoes River Beach Campsites provides a memorable setting for all.

Hidden within the serene beauty of Milford, Pennsylvania, Kittatinny Canoes River Beach Campsites is more than just a campground; it’s a sanctuary for the soul. With its reliable electric hookups, fresh drinking water, and convenient picnic tables, it ensures comfort amidst nature. The real treasure, however, lies in its direct access to the majestic Delaware River, where families can bond over kayaking and tubing adventures that leave lasting memories.

Yet, the day’s activities aren’t the end of the story. As the sun sets, the Magic Brawl  opens a new chapter for families, especially children. This remarkable game isn’t merely a distraction—it’s a rejuvenating experience that combines entertainment with personal growth. By engaging their minds and allowing their bodies to relax, it offers a sense of peace and refreshment that no ordinary game can match. It ensures that even in the quiet moments, every part of your journey is enriching and unforgettable.

A few of my friends stayed at Kittatinny Canoes River Beach Campsites recently, and while the location is fantastic for river enthusiasts, there are some areas that could use improvement. 

The highlight of their stay was the easy river access—perfect for kayaking and swimming. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and the camp store was well-stocked with essentials. However, the campsites are quite small and very close together, which takes away from the overall tranquility, 

Especially during weekends when the campground gets busy. 

Noise from the nearby roads is constant and noticeable no matter where you are on the grounds. The lower riverfront sites offer amazing views and are great for tent campers, but RV sites closer to the entrance have obstructed views and no direct river access. Facilities like bathrooms were clean, but not as clean as bathrooms designed by my kid in a game Toca Boca but it’s clear they could benefit from some upgrades. 

Overall, this campground is worth considering if you’re here for river activities or need a convenient base camp. However, the cramped site sizes and road noise might not make it ideal for a quiet, relaxing getaway.

Camped here a few times, for a few days. Each time is always a blast. So beautiful, and clean. Not much fish to catch but overall the experience is always worth it.

I’m a family of 5 and my friends family of three all stayed in one site. We went in October at the peak of the leaves changing colors. It’s was beautiful. A 6 point buck walked right through our site literally. The kids enjoyed it a lot. Amenities were very clean. Even the portapot we used was very clean. Will visit again. No service/no electronics. A good way to just unplug and enjoy Gods creation

Perfect place to get away and be in the calm nature. Only sound I’ve heard is the birds in the trees. Very open area with many sites with bear lockers, picnic tables and fire pits. We called ahead yesterday and they said it’s walk-in, so we will go register now because we came in late. Only $20 for out of state!! That’s the cheapest I’ve seen across all New England lol

The lake is gorgeous and there are nice hiking trails, but sites are very small and close together. Let’s are allowed in less than half of the campground, which means all the dogs are in a smaller area and barking at each other more than other places. The no-pet area was practically empty when we were there midweek but the pets-allowed area was much more crowded than we would have liked.

Also rules and signage are wildly confusing, lots of things contradict each other. Cell service exists but not great for remote work.

Lots of road noise at this location. Only two spots across from each other, really nice if no ones in the other one but annoying if someone is. Great Verizon service and nearby walking trail. Overall a decent site unless you’re looking for something with amenities.

This park is great for families, they had events scheduled throughout the summer, and a separate toddler pool. It’s very close to the Rail Gap Pocono Creek Nature Reserve, with some nice trails along Pocono Creek. We stayed here for a week and everyone we met was super friendly, and we would visit again.

Stay in one of the last weekends of August.  We were a party of 8 so we needed 2 sites, the first sites we booked were horrible - so so tiny (E11 & E12) and right on a swampy pond where the grass is growing into the water so it was hard to see where the water line was.  We had kids, so we needed to move our sites.  We ended up right across the way on E7 & E8 - much better.  This loop for tent campers is mixed.  Some of the sites are literally on the road - stay away from the sites on the same side of the road as the pond.  I saw a family who literally had to block the road a little bc they couldn't park their car *and* have a tent on the tiny site.  Anything on the side of E7 is bigger and a little deeper into the trees, but nothing seemed to be private in this campground.  It was a busy weekend, so of course there was loud music and partying - it just so happens that it was next door to our sites.  Bathrooms were far on this loop.  There are little foot bridges that you could take to get to the bathroom easier (and closer) but they are set on people's campsites, so if someone is on that site it's really walking through their site to get to it.  The campground has good amenities - wifi, pool, jumping ball, playground, basketball courts, volleyball courts, and a tether ball court :).  Great for the kids.  Pool is small but it works.  There's a cafe there so we were able to grab coffees and stuff.  They deliver wood and ice to your site which is super convenient.  We would return for sure.  Also - just to let everyone know the fire pit is really small.

There are only 3 spots where we are. No motor vehicles beyond where I'm camping. Bring everything with you. It's a hike back to town... there is a small town 10 minutes away. Eldred, NY. Really is a nice quiet place. It's Labor Day weekend, see how many people try to cram in to the very limited camping area. Where I originally camped was not a spot, according to Ranger. Had to move next to the lake. Need a permit on NY state land. Contact Rangers office of whatever county.

I read a previous review that stated small cars stay away. I nave a Nissan rogue and made it in no problem. It's .8 miles in on the right. There was another closer in but seemed full. I'm right across from the lake in amongst a copse of trees. Drawback solar is pretty much out. I would not drive an rv in here except maybe a small type trailer.

Because of its convenient location, this is my"home" campsite and the one I visit most frequently. I like the platform sites that are available, the location close to the lake and beach, and the clean shower and bathroom facilities slope game.
