  Camp Taylor Campground

  Perfect for tent camping

  This is not one of those resort campgrounds. It has minimal amenities. However, if you are looking to tent camp at a great location, it’s perfect. The tent camping area is separate so no loud noises from RVs. The sites are spacious and separated by trees so you really feel connected to nature. I love hearing the wolves and being so close to great hiking trails. Highly recommended. It’s my favorite drive-in tent campground in NJ.

  Blue Rocks Family Campground

  Family Campground with great hiking

  We have been to blue rocks twice for tent camping and it is one on my favorite campgrounds. The tent sites are separated from the RVs and are very large sites, so you have some space from your neighbors. There are hiking trails right from the campground to access the Pinnacle, Pulpit rock and Appalachian trail. The boulder field in the campground is great, too. We loved hanging out on the boulders in the morning, or star watching from them in the evening. The only con was that the water is a bit of a walk from the tents. It could be imporoved by adding even a simple water spicket closer to the tents.

  Ringing Rocks Family Campground

  Overall not bad for tent campers

  Very clean campground, clean bathrooms and showers. However, if you're tent camping the bathrooms are FAR and I highly doubt no one has ever peed outside at night instead of navigating through the night to them.

  I had full at&t service. Nice double playground.

  the tent sites are very close together, and when we stayed the RV campers get really rowdy at night past quiet hours (10pm) which sucked having our 7 year old with us trying to sleep. RVers with golf carts would periodically drive by too.

  Overall not bad, but won't stay again. Okay as a tent camper if you're passing through for a night, and so so for those with young children, but if you want the real camping experience I don't recommend It's really geared more toward rvers

  Swartswood State Park Campground - TEMPORARILY CLOSED

  Great family campground with tons of activities

  I tent camped with my niece here in early July. We booked a campsite at the far end of the loop by the lake, which looked to be the right spot for some privacy, but a longer walk to the bathroom and water spigot.

  The campsites included a picnic table and fire ring, and flat ground for tents.

  The late was closed for swimming (lifeguard shortage at the time) but there were lots of smaller spots to tuck into for fishing and just relaxing.

  By the main swimming are there are canoe and kayak rentals as well.

  We did one loop hike which was mostly in the woods with a brief stop with a lake view. The better activities were around the lake.

  This campground was perfect for our weekend. The tent sites more in the open field area (

  Jim Thorpe Camping Resort

  Decent campground in a wonderful location

  On the surface the campground is average. The secret it packs is the great town in which it shares it's name. You are 5 minutes from the wonderful town of Jim Thrope. Can't say the campground offers too much other than the basic campground experience. Though if coupled that with the opportunity to experience Jim Thrope, it sets the Jim Thrope Camping Resort apart. 

  My son, brother, and nephew tent camped. The tent sites are not very defined, level or rock free. Makes it fun searching for a good position within the site, kinda like roughing it in the actual wild... so not really a complaint. Sites are not very private or secluded. I could personally use a bit more privacy, not enough to be a deal breaker. Bathhouses are rougher, but usable and not dirty per se. Just rustic. 

  A major pro is access to the Switchback Trail from the campground. A wonderfully scenic trail.

  Overall I would and plan on returning.

  Blue Rocks Family Campground

  Large campground in Pennsylvania near the AT

  "Rocksylvania". According to hikers on the AT, this is what they call Pennsylvania, as they hike through this section of the state. And Blue Rocks Campground doesn't dissapoint.

  This campground sits in the woods and rolling hills just below the Appalachian Trail. Nice huge campground. The RV sites are mainly situated at the botom section, and the tent camping is pretty much on the upper portion of the site. The tent sites are pretty spacious. There are also places to buy wood nearby (very economically priced) and the campground sells it also. Worse comes to worse, there is a lot of forage wood on the site as well.

  There are plenty of hiking trails, and a "yellow blaze" trail that leads directly to the Appalachian trail (AT). Take a hike up to "Pinnacle Rock" on the AT, and you can catch a nice view. There are rattlesnakes and Copperheads in the area, so be sure to act like you've got some sense.

  And not to be missed is the "Blue Rocks" river of rocks, which is situated on the campground, and the reason the site got its name.

  Korns Campgrounds

  was amazing… now much less so

  We used to go here all the time. This season there are people living in RV’s in the tent camping area for the full season. That’s no problem, but their outside light decorations really are. The last time we were there, it was so bright at night from the lighting decorations that we didn’t need a flashlight to get around. I am seriously not exaggerating at all. It’s a beautiful campground with a lovely little river running through it. I really hope that the owners reconsider allowing all of the outside light decorations on the RV’s in the tent camping sites.

  Lackawanna State Park Campground

  Peaceful tent camping

  Our family of four enjoyed the quiet of the tent camping area for two nights. There was plenty to keep our nature/loving kiddos engaged. Our only complaint was the lack of active enforcement of quiet hours — otherwise there would be no complaints.

  Delaware Water Gap / Pocono Mountain KOA

  Decent KOA

  We found this KOA to be okay. Some amenities need upgrades for the price. Staff very friendly and helpful. I don’t love the gravel pad tent sites. Some sites are much more private than others.

  Lower Lake Campground Beechwood Area — Promised Land State Park

  Peaceful and clean

  Went tent camping for 3 nights, easy to get to, bathrooms were clean and so was the site. Sites were a good size and not on top of each other. Firewood was available in the area. But not much for stores so pack everything in before.

  Cozy Creek Family Campground

  Decent spot

  I ended up arriving 25 minutes late. I drove through 45 minutes of heavy thunderstorms. When I pulled up, the counter girls ride was being passive aggressive obviously mad that I was holding her up. I tried my best to be in and out quickly. The counter girl was fantastic and sweet. I had a primitive site, waterfront. It was a great spot, but there was no obvious spot to park. Also, the routes through the campground were riddled with potholes, and the route through the tent sites was a giant puddle. The bathrooms were great and the place felt comfortable and secure. But not all the tent sites had a picnic table. Otherwise it was a very relaxing site by the water.

  Ironwood Point Rec Area

  Beautiful View

  Great campground! The owners were nice and helpful. Firewood was reasonably priced as were showers (25¢ for 5 minutes.) Tent sites were nicely leveled with fire rings and picnic tables. The view was incredible! We will definitely be back!

  Evergreen Lake Campground

  Worth the stay.

  Tent sites are big, clean, and with some shade. Bathrooms are clean and spacious. Check in was quick and the lady at the office was pleasant. Dogs are allowed, but there are rules. Follow them and you’ll be fine.

  Kymers Camping Resort

  Rustic and woodsy

  Been camping here for 4 seasons. The management is very helpful and willing to help with even the smallest of requests. Great for RV and tent camping. There’s a pond stocked with 2-3 types of fresh water fish. They offer seasonal camping and a game room with a small general store.

  Real Quiet in Early Spring

  Campground has cabins and yurts, pull in sites for RV’s and strictly walk in tent sites. There is a beautiful lake and a very large pool. We went in early spring midweek, it was very quiet and exactly the get away we wanted.

  Hickory Run State Park Campground

  Beautiful

  My brother and I took our kids here a few years ago for tent camping in August. The campground wasn’t very crowded and the sites were a decent size, we easily put two tents on our site. The bathhouse we used was a bit lacking and not really big enough for the amount of people it needed to handle. Lots to do in the area if you do your research.

  Blue Rocks Family Campground

  Family Campground

  Great campground with lots of amenities. The staff was friendly, the store had essentials and more, and there was great hiking right from the grounds. Our site was a little rocky so he prepared with a good mat/mattress if tent camping. Our site was on a little stream which was relaxing. All around great private campground.

  Sandy Valley Campground

  Small, but busy

  Went in April so it was still chilly. Camps sites are a bit close together, but still clean. Was busy even for that time of year, especially he tent sites. Can get a little noisy with how close you your neighbors can be, but not a bad experience overall.
