      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!

      Artillery Ridge Campground

      Great campsite. Fire pit, picnic table, swimming pool ( not open), miniature golf course, laundromat, bathrooms, showers, dump station, gathering areas for groups, playground, and even a horse area and stalls for horses. Dog friendly. Staff was very helpful and curious.

      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.

      Artillery Ridge Campground

      Got us out of a jam.

      Where we were camping had blown up their dump station. Artillery Ridge helped us out. $10. to dump. If we come to camp in Gettysburg, it will be hear.

      Codorus State Park Campground

      Hurricane camping

      You just can't beat a pennsylvania park. This one is not an exception. Nice clean restroom, plenty of room. Now, what cost a star. Yes, it rained like hell. When we broke camp and go dump. The dump station was overflowing with sewer. Go to the guard shack to tell them, and find another site. None there. Can I go to an unused full hookup to dump? No! I would have to pay for the site. Two hours later, we found a place to dump for $10.

      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.

      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.

    Guide to Delta

    Camping opportunities near Delta, Pennsylvania range from river-adjacent properties to wooded retreats within Lancaster County. The region's campgrounds typically operate from April through October when temperatures average 70-85°F during summer months. Most sites offer direct access to the Susquehanna River watershed, creating diverse options for water recreation and riverside camping experiences.

    What to do

    Creek exploration: At Pequea Creek Campground, visitors can enjoy riverside activities with easy water access. "The wife & I stayed in site 22 for three nights and bicycled 14 miles, some along the Susquehanna, on nearby Enola Low Grade Trail. We enjoyed the birds singing in the mornings and welcomed grandkids' visit for splashing and floating in Pequea Creek," writes J W.

    Hiking trails: The Susquehannock State Park Campground provides access to multiple trail systems. "There are lots of long scenic hiking trails down to Deer creek and to the Susquehanna River. There's a great bike trail to the Conowingo dam which is a nice place to visit, and a great place to see lots of eagles," notes David G. The park maintains several lookout points with river views.

    Water recreation: Elk Neck State Park Campground offers beach access during summer months. "In summer there is a beach on the North East River for swimming and the Turkey Point Lighthouse is nearby. The town of North East is close and is a quaint town with a Main Street and great little shops," explains Laure D. The park also maintains boat ramps for water access.

    What campers like

    Spacious sites: Campers at Otter Creek Campground appreciate the layout and natural surroundings. "Great campground in the woods. The managers were very helpful and friendly! Pet friendly!" writes Lammy F. The campground's proximity to the Susquehanna River makes it popular for pet owners seeking water activities.

    Recreational amenities: Family activities are abundant at pet-friendly campgrounds. "The free splash pad is perfect for younger kids and felt great on a hot summer day. Boat rentals were cheap and perfectly adequate. The area of the reservoir where you can travel is limited, but fun to cruise around in an hour or so," reports Peter F. about Muddy Run Recreation Park.

    Clean facilities: Campground cleanliness ranks high in visitor feedback. "Clean bathhouses! Fun activities planned through the season," notes Jamie A. about Tucquan Park. Most campgrounds in the region maintain bathroom facilities with hot water, though some charge small fees for showers.

    What you should know

    Site selection matters: When choosing a site at Muddy Run Recreation Park, consider sun exposure and location. "The tent sites are pretty close together and open with little privacy. We lucked out with a lot that was slightly more secluded on the end of a road, but paid for it with a very sloped lot that made sitting at the picnic table or camp chairs a bit of a struggle," explains Nate & Erika L.

    Water hookup placement: Some campgrounds have unusual utility layouts. "Bring 50 ft of hose for water hook up and an extension cord with a converter. The water hook ups are randomly placed, ours was 2 sites away," advises Chris G. This is particularly important when camping with pets that need regular water access.
