Best RV Parks & Resorts near Hopwood, PA

The Hopwood region supports several RV parks with varying levels of service. Benner's Meadow Run RV Campground provides 120 sites with full hookups including water, electric, and sewer connections, operating from mid-April through mid-October. The Blue Canoe RV Resort (formerly Uniontown KOA) features riverfront RV sites with 50-amp electric service and accommodates larger motorhomes and fifth wheels. Pine Cove Beach Club RV Resort remains open year-round with full hookup sites and big rig access. Most parks feature gravel pads rather than concrete, and many offer pull-through options for easier positioning of larger motorhomes. "Our 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."

Seasonal availability varies significantly between parks near the Pennsylvania-West Virginia border. Fall weekends typically fill quickly due to leaf-viewing traffic, especially at parks near Ohiopyle State Park and the Great Allegheny Passage trail. Many RV parks maintain on-site sanitary dump stations, while limited winter operations mean fewer full-service options from November through March. Navigation to some parks involves steep grades or winding roads that may challenge larger motorhome maneuverability. Most facilities welcome pets but enforce leash requirements. A recent review noted: "While we were driving a golf cart going less than the speed limit, seasonal guests shook their fingers at us to slow down." Several parks offer propane service, though availability should be confirmed when making reservations.

    Double G Campground

    Quiet and Friendly Campground

    Decent size RV park with mostly seasonal and full time residents. They are still happy to have short term campers. Nice full hook up sites and cable TV. Staff was very friendly. Firewood is abundant, good quality, and cheap. Not a whole lot on the way of amenities, but it’s a nice facility. Location is great, very close to the lake and the ski resort. If you want to camp while at the lake this is a great choice.

    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.

    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!

    Washington-Pittsburgh SW KOA

    KOA - Monthly Stay

    Camping in a 33 ft travel trailer with slides. Verizon service is great. Wifi in extended parking doesn’t work well. The staff are helpful and polite. We are in the extended stay part of the campground which is quiet and slightly more secluded than the other spots.

    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.


Guide to Hopwood

The Hopwood area occupies a transitional zone between the Appalachian Plateau and Appalachian Mountains, with elevations ranging from 1,200 to 1,800 feet. Winter temperatures frequently drop below freezing, limiting full-service RV camping options from November through March. Most campgrounds maintain gravel parking pads rather than concrete surfaces.

What to do

Fishing access: The Blue Canoe RV Resort provides riverfront RV sites along the Youghiogheny River. A recent visitor noted, "Located on the Youghiogheny River. Many full hookups, great playground for the kids. Staff make multiple rounds, picks up your trash and delivers your purchased firewood."

Trail riding: RV sites near Hopwood, Pennsylvania offer convenient access to the Great Allegheny Passage. According to a camper at The Blue Canoe RV Resort, "The GAP trail rolls right through the middle of this traditional KOA campground. The seasonal RVers and weekend warriors have long claimed their sites, but for through riders on the trail there is a special place to camp."

Star gazing: Benner's Meadow Run RV Campground features a dedicated star gazing platform for night sky viewing. While some visitors report it "leaves a lot to be desired and is in need of repair," the mountainous location offers reduced light pollution compared to urban areas.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Campers frequently mention the cleanliness of shower and restroom facilities. At Pine Cove Beach Club RV Resort, a visitor reported "modern hookups, good shower/laundry facilities," while another noted the "beautifully maintained lawns and gravel campsites."

Family amenities: Pine Cove Beach Club RV Resort receives high marks for its swimming facilities. One camper highlighted "The pool & concession stand, beautifully maintained lawns and gravel campsites." Another visitor called it a "wonderful family park" with "large sites, close to the highway but no road noise."

Helpful staff: Service quality varies significantly between parks. At Benner's Meadow Run, a solo traveler shared: "I spoke with Mary Lou on the phone to make my reservations and she informed me she would be leaving at 5pm. When I got there, well after 5pm, Mary Lou was waiting for me!"

What you should know

Site leveling challenges: Many RV sites require substantial leveling. At Benner's Meadow Run, one camper reported, "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."

Seasonal camper attitudes: Established seasonal campers may demonstrate territorial behavior toward transient visitors. At The Blue Canoe RV Resort, a camper observed, "The management is rude and unfriendly. Also, the seasonal campers are also salty."

Water access considerations: River access points may present seasonal challenges. One camper at The Blue Canoe RV Resort noted, "I don't know if the River was just low, but the ramp for entering/exiting with your kayak stopped before getting to the river's edge. It was very muddy after the ramp."

Tips for camping with families

Activity options: Benner's Meadow Run RV Campground provides numerous organized activities. A visitor observed, "So much to do for the kids. Clean and well kept," while another mentioned, "Great place for kids! Family friendly atmosphere, cordial staff, well run campground. Lots of activities."

Internet connectivity: Double G Campground offers full hookup sites with cable TV. A camper at Benner's Meadow Run reported, "Wifi was good enough to work and stream Netflix," making it suitable for remote workers.

Overnight options: For travelers needing a quick overnight stop, CAMP73ROCKST☆R provides convenient highway access. A visitor described it as a "safe place to pull over for the night right off interstate."
