Best RV Parks & Resorts near Hollsopple, PA

Quemahoning Family Recreation Area provides electric hookups for RVs with spacious gravel sites near Hollsopple. The campground features a bathroom with showers, though waiting lines sometimes form during peak periods. "The campground offers some sites with electrical and others with varying primitive services," noted one camper who appreciated the fire rings and picnic tables at each site. Pioneer Lakes RV Park offers additional options with electric, water, and sewer hookups on pull-through sites that accommodate larger rigs. Mirror Lake RV Camping & Fishing, located in New Florence, provides 30-amp service with water and sewer connections, remaining open from April through October with sites situated around a fishing lake.

Navigation to several campgrounds requires careful route planning, particularly for larger motorhomes. The Blue Canoe RV Resort in Connellsville features big-rig friendly sites with full hookups including 50-amp service, though seasonal operation limits availability from May through mid-October. Cell service varies significantly throughout the region's mountainous terrain, with several reviewers noting weak or non-existent coverage at certain parks. Most RV parks in the area allow pets, though rules vary regarding leash requirements and designated pet areas. Dump stations are available at most parks, with Quemahoning requiring campers to carry out their own trash. Winter camping options are limited, with Friendship Village Campground & RV Park in Bedford being one of the few year-round facilities within reasonable driving distance.

    New Germany State Park Campground

    Gorgeous park; truly "unplugged" experience

    Site was very large and private, surrounded by beautiful forest. Plenty of room for our pup, TV, pop-up gazebo, and gear. Each site had a fire ring with grill grate, and a nice, large, composite picnic table. We were right in front of the bath house, which was convenient, but the light was pretty bright at night. We were also the closest site to the loop entrance, so we could hear some traffic along the main park road. Didn’t bother us too much, but I imagine it would have been pretty noisy if we’d been there during peak summer season. Camping loop overall was nice and quiet, though; we had two neighbors while we were there, and barely saw nor heard anything from either of them.

    Simply put, this park is absolutely gorgeous. Easily the most beautiful MD State Park we’ve visited. Everything, from the forest, to trails, to lake, to Meadow Mountain, is a camper/outdoor enthusiast’s dream. The fall foliage made everything even more beautiful. Apparently, the park is very popular amongst cross-country skiers in the winter, especially since they have full-service cabins and a warming hut by the lake. I’m not into cold weather at all, but I imagine I would love to spend a day by the lake in the summer time. Said lake area also has a concession stand, boat rentals, swimming beach, rec hall, and nature center, but these were all closed since we were there out of season.

    Bath house in our loop was old and small, but kept very clean. I never used the shower, as it was too cold, but it looked adequate. LOTS of spiders, which don’t really bother me, but definitely a nightmare for arachnophobes.

    We drove through the two other, non-pet-friendly loops, which were also beautiful. Sites were spacious and private, just like in our loop, but with the addition of tall pines. Saw mostly tent campers, and a few small TTs. The roads were very narrow, with a decent incline, so not big-rig friendly.

    Note that there is very little to no cell phone reception in the park, so combined with the lack of hookups, this is definitely an unplugged, “connect with nature” type of camping experience.

    Overall, I absolutely loved this park, and can definitely see why it’s referred to as Maryland’s “hidden gem.” The only negative was the lack of hookups, as it got pretty cold at night, and our battery was unable to sustain the needs of our heater. It would have been fine if it had been just me and my husband, but I think it was just too cold for our small kids, especially with the wind and rain we encountered. I would love to return in the summer though, especially since the area doesn’t experience the same type of extreme humidity as the more central and eastern parts of Maryland. Highly recommended!

    Glade Farms Campground

    Quiet place to rest

    We headed to ride the trails at big bear lake camplands and booked here considering a recent outbreak of covid at the lake. The on call staff met us at the gated community and helped us get situated on a shaded lot. Very nice and quiet with mostly seasonal or permanent snowbirds. Small pond/lake on the property and plenty of shade. The lot was a challenge to be centered and level which led to us exiting our camper downhill. The water access was in ground and I cant imagine a camping couple that's well beyond retirement finding that convenient but it didn't impact us. Pet friendly and large lots. Bathhouse was closed due to covid. No firewood at this campground to purchase but fire ring provided and picnic tables.

    CUMBERLAND MD. CAMPGROUNDS. 1 & 2

    On the Potomac and C & O Canal Trail

    Canal Tunnel River Campground, Nov 2023 : This is a 1 3/4 mile walk along the C &O Canal Trail to the outskirts of Cumberland. We happened upon this empty campground while walking this trail. A fantastic museum is near that 1 3/4 mile point. The National Park Visitor Center is there as well which is very informative.
    (70 yr olds in 17’ trailer). I rate based on desire for at least a moderate wilderness type experience w at least some camp site privacy. Usage during visit: Empty Site Privacy: No vegetation screen between sites. Site Spacing: Close, but more spacing than many private campgrounds. Site surface: Grass Reservations: I noticed Agee box at the entrance. Road Noise: This campground is not near a highway. Through Traffic in campground: No reason for through traffic.
    Electric Hookup: I concluded the only sites with electricity are host sites. Sewer Hookup: No Dump Station: No Potable Water Available: Yes Bathroom: I did not see any, but probably removed for the season.
    Showers: No. Pull Throughs: Some Cell Service (AT&T): Good Setting: Open grassy area with minimal shade along the Potomac River Weather: Sunny . Highs 60s and lows 30s during our stay in the area.
    Bugs: Too cold. Solar: Great solar. Rig size: Seems that there would’ve no issue for larger rigs. Sites: Sites along the river are best in my opinion.

    Kentuck Campground — Ohiopyle State Park

    Nice Pennsylvania State Park

    Very large park with a variety of campsites ranging from tent, 20/30 amp, 50 amp, and yurts. Price is the same for all electric sites, regardless of amperage. There is a 40-foot maximum vehicle length allowed in the campground– not a problem for our 17-foot van but the staffer who checked us in remarked that many people come in with larger rigs trying to squeeze in and are unable to. We had no problem securing a site with no reservation on a Monday evening after Labor Day. Very close to two Frank Lloyd Wright properties– Kentuck Knob and the more widely known Falling Waters. Other things to do in or near the park include whitewater rafting, rail trail biking, hiking, zip-lining and touring Laurel Caverns. The nearby town of Ohiopyle has many outfitters and several restaurants. The sites are all located on roads leading off the main road; we stayed in a 20/30amp site on Cherry Road (Site 49). It was right next to the bathroom which was good and bad. Good for proximity but bad because we could hear the hum quite clearly. Also, the door to the women’s room would hit you in the rear quite forcefully unless you held onto it (it took me three times to remember to do this)! There was a dishwashing sink in the women’s room (and I’m assuming in the men’s room?); it was very clean, but the only downside was having to do the dishes by myself! Alcohol is prohibited. Only certain areas allow pets. Only one garbage/recycling station outside of the campground. Wood and ice are available 24/7 on the honor system– very nice not to have to wait until a host is on duty to get what you need. Quiet hours 9 pm-8 am, a bit longer than most campgrounds but except for some sites with campfires still burning with people talking, it was very quiet in this campground. Surprisingly strong cell signal for being deep in the woods.

    Outflow Camping

    Quiet campground

    This is a lovely army corps of engineers campground. The sites are gravel and level. Most only have 30 amp electric hookup but water can be filled at the “gatehouse” (for lack of better description). There are 3-4 full hookup and a few 50 amp. It is well-maintained— lawns mowed, bathrooms cleaned, sites tidy. Bath house isn’t modern but showers are hot and have great pressure. Campground filled up on the weekend. The sites are a bit close to each other and are mostly sunny but it was quiet anyway. Lots of people fishing on the river—access right from the campground. Great Allegheny Passage trail also accessed from the campground. Boating on the lake too.

    Kooser State Park Campground

    Great little campground

    Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here. We camped at site #15 and it was perfect. It fit our 34ft toy hauler without any issues. The park is beautiful and very well maintained. -Sites are spaced out. -Dog friendly. -$5 firewood bundles at the entrance. -Cleanest bathrooms/showers -Crystal clear stream with beautiful trail to the lake. Both stocked with fish. -Lots of picnic tables at the lake. -No formal check in. -Nice playground. -Easy access to dump site. -Kinda close to a main road so you do hear some traffic but nothing too bad. We will definitely be back! We love this area!

    Roaring Run Resort

    Decent Campground, no 50 amp service

    This campground is a nice, quiet campground about 30 minutes from Pittsburgh. It is a membership-based campground, we stayed there using coast to coast. The campground is decent, but not sure it really qualifies as a “resort”. It is an older park that could use some updates, namely electric service, fresh gravel for the sites, and sewer, but overall the park was clean and reasonably well kept.

    The park is gated, you have to stop at the security booth to check in, enter, or leave the park, so you might have to wait a few minutes, but that is a nice level of added security. It is pretty easy to navigate the park even with a larger rig, and there is an nice sized overflow parking area to unhook your toad when you first get there. I would recommend getting there before dark. They did have signs directing you to the different site number groups which was helpful.

    The road my GPS brought me in was a little tight, but manageable. There was a better route but it did have a very short bridge with a 10 ton weight limit, so be sure to really check your route. Another bonus is that it is only a few minutes from the PA turnpike.

    The sites are average, but there are no sewer hookups and no 50 amp service, the whole park is 30 amp. The sites are reasonable level, but the one we had was a little tricky to get into because of it being on a hill, but it was manageable. The picnic table benches were completely rotted out.

    There are two dump stations, one located on the way out, and the other located in one of the upper loops.

    The campground did have nice amenities, the pool was large and clean, it had a nice playground, a camp store, sports courts, horseshoes, volleyball, and a mini golf course. The staff were all very nice, and they patrolled the park throughout the day and night for security, which is always nice.

    The closest town is about 20 minutes away, and there are a bunch of restaurants, a Lowes, and auto parts stores should you need supplies or make a repair.

    The campground is about 40 minutes from the Flight 93 National Memorial, about 20 minutes from Fallingwater, and there were a couple of wineries in the area as well.

    All in all, our visit was good. I gave three stars because of the lack of 50 amp hookups and the size and quality of the sites.

    Rocky Gap State Park Campground

    Always a great time!

    This place is awesome! Our site (15) was a spacious pull through with great view of the mountain through the fall foliage! Our friends were in the site next to us (17) which was also nice and there was a wide walking path between them. Family also stayed in one of the rental cabins (21). Sites are spaced far apart in the section we were in with lots of foliage for privacy. There is walking path behind the loop along the lake that goes to the beach area and camp store. Easy access to the bath house with several paths off the loop. I recommend the pull through sites for their size and privacy but most sites looked great. The cabin was cute. It had a queen bed, bunk beds, side table and front porch with a couple windows. Picnic tables are large and fire pits were placed perfectly for our site.


Guide to Hollsopple

Camping options near Hollsopple, Pennsylvania include RV sites with varying levels of amenities throughout the region's rolling hills and forested landscapes. Located in Somerset County at approximately 1,600 feet elevation, the area experiences four distinct seasons with warm summers and cold, snowy winters. Cell service can be spotty in remote camping areas, particularly in the valleys between ridges where signal may disappear completely.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: Quemahoning Family Recreation Area offers electric-only boating on its reservoir. "Easy walk to beach area and boat launch. Very clean," notes one visitor. The recreation area includes a swimming beach and boat rentals for those without their own watercraft.

Biking the GAP Trail: The Great Allegheny Passage trail runs through several nearby camping areas. The Blue Canoe RV Resort (formerly Uniontown KOA) provides direct trail access. "The GAP trail rolls right through the middle of this traditional KOA campground... for through riders on the trail there is a special place to camp, close to the west-bound entrance," explains one cyclist. The trail connects Pittsburgh to Cumberland, Maryland with 150 miles of relatively flat rail-trail.

Visit historical sites: Within 40 minutes of Hollsopple, campers can explore several significant locations. "We stayed for 2 nights while we visited Fallingwater and the Flight 93 Memorial. We should have stayed another night so we could visit Fort Necessity NP just down the road but ran out of time," reports a camper at Benner's Meadow Run RV Campground.

What campers like

Peaceful water views: Many campers appreciate the quiet settings near lakes and streams. "The owner is very friendly and helpful. The location on the water adds for a great view," notes a visitor at Quemahoning Family Recreation Area. Sites positioned along water features tend to book faster during peak season.

Family-friendly activities: Pioneer Lakes RV Park offers recreational options beyond camping. "Been going to pioneer park since I was like 3. Extremely family friendly, lots to do for kiddos on weekend, stocked ponds, bathhouses very close to all sites," shares a regular visitor. Weekend programming often includes organized activities for children.

Clean facilities: Campers consistently mention facility maintenance as a deciding factor. "Wonderful staff and facilities. The roads around the camp ground could use some maintenance, especially on the hill side by the pool! All in all, a wonderful place to take your family camping," reports a camper at Pioneer Lakes RV Park. Most campgrounds in the region provide shower facilities, though availability varies.

What you should know

Seasonal operations: Most RV sites near Hollsopple, Pennsylvania close during winter months. Mirror Lake RV Camping & Fishing operates from April through October, typical of the region. "Great place to stay! You will not find better campground owners, they are amazing. After office hours they can be commonly found hanging out with their campers," notes one visitor.

Site leveling challenges: Some campgrounds require significant leveling equipment. "The spot was so unlevel there were 19 inches between my bottom step and the ground. This site was the same price as level ones closer to activities," warns a camper at Pioneer Lakes RV Park.

Bathroom facilities: While most campgrounds offer showers, availability can be limited. "The campground has a bathroom with showers (2 for men, 2 for women). The result is there are sometimes lines waiting for a shower to be available," explains a camper at Quemahoning Family Recreation Area.

Trash services: Policies vary by location. "There is no trash service; campers are expected to carry out their trash," notes a reviewer at Quemahoning Family Recreation Area. Always check specific campground requirements before arrival.

Tips for camping with families

Pool access: Friendship Village Campground & RV Park offers multiple swimming options. "There are two pools at each end of the campground and they are very well-maintained and have lifeguard supervision. The pool hours are a little later than most campgrounds as they open at 11 through the week and 12 on Sunday," notes a visitor. The campground remains open year-round, making it one of few winter camping options.

Playground considerations: Look for campgrounds with multiple play areas. "The playground area is unsafe. The wood on the playsets are falling apart and splintering. I had to pull a lot of splinters out of my child's hands and feet," cautions a recent visitor to Pioneer Lakes RV Park.

Site selection for families: At Friendship Village Campground, strategic site selection enhances the experience. "In my opinion, the best sites to stay at if you have kids are sites 145–171 as those are right beside the jumping pillow, playground and gaga ball pit," recommends a family camper.

Tips from RVers

Access considerations: Benner's Meadow Run RV Campground requires careful navigation at arrival. "The entry is strange as we had to block the gated entrance to get to the office to check in. Once past that, the staff was nice and the buildings and properties are well maintained," reports an RVer. Many campgrounds in the area have similar entry procedures that can be challenging for larger rigs.

Hookup variations: Electric service ranges from basic to comprehensive. "We were there for one of the first weekends of the season, and we enjoyed every bit of our trip. Not only were the staff super friendly and helpful, but we were lucky enough to get a full-hookup site right on the lake," shares a camper at Mirror Lake RV Camping & Fishing.

Site spacing: RV sites throughout the region vary significantly in size and privacy. "The sites are very close together with little privacy. We stayed in site 435. The site was sloped pretty bad side to side and there is a drop off on the one side of the fire ring so we could not sit completely around the fire," notes a visitor at Benner's Meadow Run RV Campground.
