Several cabin options near Eagles Mere provide comfortable accommodations with varying amenities. Ricketts Glen State Park Campground offers cabins with electricity and basic furnishings, while Worlds End State Park features rustic cabins along Loyalsock Creek. Pioneer Campground provides cabins with more extensive amenities including refrigerators and stoves. The cabins at Worlds End State Park "stay very warm with a wood burning stove—sometimes even too warm and windows need to stay cracked open," according to a visitor who appreciated the front porch fireplace.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Worlds End State Park cabins generally sleep 6-8 people with four double bunk beds, plus electricity, stove, and refrigerator but no plumbing. KOA cabins at Williamsport South-Nittany Mountain offer more amenities and are available from April through November. Most locations allow pets in designated cabins. A recent review noted that cabin quality can vary significantly: "Cabin 1 had a smell, a wrinkly floor, and was very dark," while "cabin 6 was so cute, bright, and had AC."
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. The bathroom facilities vary by location—Worlds End cabins have no plumbing, requiring guests to use nearby bathhouses with showers and dishwashing stations. Pioneer Campground and other locations maintain well-stocked camp stores with firewood and basic supplies. For more substantial grocery needs, the Forksville General Store near Worlds End offers meals and supplies. Wooden chairs and bench seating are standard in most cabins, so visitors are advised to bring comfortable camp chairs for extended stays.

Beautiful Falls!
What a great campground! We stayed here on a recommendation from a friend after the Overland Expo. Great hiking trails and the falls were absolutely breathtaking. Truly enjoyed our stay and plan to return!

Car camping
Stayed October 14 without reservations because website showed lots of availability. Office was closed (M-F 8-4) so submitted honor system envelope with cash and stayed at Site 041 on Carpenter loop. Shower building was a short walk and was spacious enough. Water temp didn’t quite reach hot but was warm enough.
Electric kept on tripping breaker.

Quiet getaway
The state park is beautiful. The site was very nice. The park itself is very big with many activities available such as boat rentals and a swimming pool. There's also an amphitheatre which hosts specials. During our stay the only activity we made it to was the pool. The main reason we didn't do more was the distance. We have a motorhome so we didn't have additional vehicles to get to and from places. We walked to the park which according to my Fitbit was 1.5 miles away. That doesn't seem too bad until you realize it's mostly hills in both directions! We are a fairly active young family who has no problem with a bit of a walk but after that experience we decided to just spend the remainder of our trip hanging out at our site. It's a good thing we only stayed 2 nights because our 10 year old might've lost his mind with boredom if we stayed longer. Overall, the site we had was great and I'd recommend it. My husband and I may come back for a couples date weekend.

Quite local spot
Quiet spot along the river with a nice restaurant, pool, and live music regularly.

Pettecote Junction Campground
Full Service Camping on the River
This is a full service RV campground with nightly and seasonal stays. I was tent camping and, unlike most RV campgrounds, the dedicated tent area was very nice and right on the river. There’s a camp store, laundromat, showers and many different boats available for rent right in the campground. Very well run place and everything looked well kept.
The sites face a small mountain wall with the river at the base so very scenic. The river is fairly fast running so boating and swimming are for older kids/adults in this area or put in someplace calmer.
For those riding the MABDR, this is only 5 mins off the trail and a good place to relax before the final 70 miles through the PA Grand Canyon.

Nice quiet place!
We didn’t stay over night, we just need to use the dump and refill water. We paid $15 and drove around the place.
Guide to Eagles Mere
Cabin camping near Eagles Mere, Pennsylvania offers year-round opportunities in the Endless Mountains region at elevations around 2,000 feet. The area experiences distinct seasonal changes with summer temperatures typically ranging 10-15 degrees cooler than surrounding lowlands. Nighttime temperatures can drop significantly even in summer months, requiring proper preparation for overnight stays.
What to do
Hiking to waterfalls: Ricketts Glen State Park offers exceptional waterfall hiking with 22 named waterfalls. "The biggest draw to this state park (which no one in Pennsylvania I spoke with seemed to know about) is the 22 waterfalls! We saw 18 of them on a four-mile moderate hike, but if you want to see the additional four, you could make it a seven-mile hike," notes Lee D. from Ricketts Glen State Park Campground.
Stream wading: Many cabin sites provide direct access to streams and creeks. At Lake Glory Campground, "Kids can wade in the water to cool off while parents are chatting and cooking just few feet away," according to Eiron S. The creek-side sites are particularly popular during warmer months.
Fishing: Stocked lakes and streams provide ample fishing opportunities. "The lake is stocked and the fish are always hungry," reports Vince L. about Lake Glory Campground. Several campgrounds maintain fishing ponds that don't require a trip off-site.
What campers like
Quiet forest settings: The cabins around Eagles Mere offer seclusion in heavily wooded areas. "It feels like you're in another world, or at least separated from the daily hassles and vexations of society, with a wall of a mountain between you and them," explains TheKajrak about their stay at Worlds End State Park Campground.
Private bathroom facilities: Many cabins have upgraded bathrooms. At Pioneer Campground, the individual shower rooms provide extra privacy. "I do have to say I love the bath houses here. They are each their own individual rooms split into shower/changing room. I like the privacy and it made it much easier when my daughter was small," reports Gayle B.
Cooler temperatures: The elevation provides natural cooling. "When it is brutally hot, this Campground is always cool. Large shaded sites that you don't feel like your right on top of the next camper," writes James P. about Pioneer Campground, making it a welcome retreat during summer heat waves.
What you should know
Cabin quality varies widely: Some cabins require significant updating while others offer newer amenities. At Williamsport South-Nittany Mountain KOA, cabins range from basic to deluxe models with more amenities. "We have stayed here with family before and had our first RV stay on our own this fall. Beautiful campground, most sites are wooded," reports Traci F.
Off-grid considerations: Cell service is limited or non-existent in many areas. "No cell service, which is refreshing. The sound of the creek nearby is really soothing," mentions Katy R. about Worlds End State Park. This disconnection can be either a benefit or challenge depending on your needs.
