Best Campgrounds near Loganville, PA

Campgrounds near Loganville, Pennsylvania include a mix of state parks and private facilities within easy driving distance. Notable options include Codorus State Park Campground, approximately 15 miles southwest, and Gifford Pinchot State Park Campground, about 13 miles northwest. The region accommodates diverse camping preferences with tent sites, RV hookups, cabins, yurts, and glamping facilities. Most developed campgrounds operate seasonally, typically from April through October or early November, with Codorus and Gifford Pinchot both closing after Halloween weekend.

Seasonal considerations impact campground operations throughout the area, with most facilities running from spring through fall. "The park is located on a beautiful lake. We picked loop A to stay in the woods. Campgrounds are nicely spaced and clean. Cleanest bathrooms I've seen at a park," noted one visitor to Codorus State Park. Many sites require advance reservations, particularly during summer weekends and holidays. Level terrain varies between campgrounds, with some locations featuring challenging slopes for RVs. Several campgrounds offer electrical hookups ranging from 30 to 50 amp service, while water and sewer connections are available at select locations. Cell service can be spotty in more remote areas, especially in wooded sections of the parks.

Waterfront camping opportunities represent significant draws at both state parks, with lake access for boating and fishing. Indian Rock Campgrounds features creekside sites that provide a more secluded experience while remaining relatively close to town. According to a camper, "We were surprised to find this nice little spot next to the creek right outside of town. The road noise is kind of annoying but the area is beautiful." Shaded sites are highly valued during summer months, particularly in the more open campgrounds. Bathroom and shower facilities receive mixed reviews across campgrounds, with state parks typically maintaining cleaner facilities than some private operations. Family-friendly amenities like playgrounds, swimming areas, and activity programs are available at several locations, including Merry Meadows Recreation Farm, which features miniature golf and seasonal events.

    Gettysburg Campground

    Good spot for Gettysburg, a bit spendy.

    We stayed here mid-week in September so it was very quiet. There was a bit of road noise as our site was close to the entrance. Host was super friendly. They have a bunch of things going on with groups that stay here; next group is quilters with vintage trailers, sorry to miss that. All of the utilities worked just fine. Sites re a bit close to each other, not a lot of foliage between sites.

    Artillery Ridge Campground

    Great location and friendly staff

    We have a motorhome with no additional vehicle and two dogs, and this site couldn’t have been more perfect for us. A dog park, walking distance to most everything we wanted to see. The national park is mostly dog friendly. My husband caught a fish first day in the pond behind our site. The staff was super friendly and welcoming.

    Round Top Campground

    Better than OK

    Stayed for 2 days while passing through from FL to NH. Off-season so not crowded. Pool was clean and quite good sized, had it to ourselves due to season. Did laundry while here, ample laundry room. On-site extras include food-truck restaurant and small country goods vendor during our stay. Office staff did ok. Sites have reasonable spacing with gravel pads, mostly level. Trees between sites with sloping hills , not just a big open field. It’s a corporate site so automated web-based reservation system was finicky so we had to verify reservation went through. Tried to book 2 nights but system only set us up for 1. Phone call to help line easily resolved the issue. Quiet and no spotlights on all night.

    Hersheypark Camping Resort

    Very clean campground friendly staff

    We stay here once a year in September. Stone surface. Not to bad for leveling. Our site was spacious.

    Gifford Pinchot State Park Campground

    Peace and quiet !

    Great spot! We had site 114 . It has water access and is right next to a small man made beach and playground. Bathrooms were in good shape. Sites were of ample size and well spaced.

    Old Mill Stream Campground

    In Amish area, next to an amusement park

    Our kids where happy with the small playground and with a few dollars they could have some fun in the small arcade/gameroom. In the area you have Lancaster, Amish area and an amusement park (that is a bit outdated). The camping has a bit over 100 spots. They are just oké.

    Elk Neck State Park Campground

    More than correct stay for a pass through or short period

    Check in at the store (without reservation), went very smooth. Only the north east loop was open because it was calm. All spots are full hook up, all fine. There was a small play area for the kids and the restrooms/ shower where clean. No complaints.

    Sun Valley Campground

    My Happy Place

    My wife and I have been seasonal camper for 4 years and love it. We had visited numerous campgrounds and found Sun Valley to be the atmosphere there beyond our expectations. The minute you walk into the office you get that" aha" moment. The office greets you with a smile and " Welcome to Sun Valley, how can I help you ". That alone told us these folks are here to make your stay enjoyable. They go above and beyond any campground we have ever been to. The activities go above and beyond. The Saturday night bands are concert worthy. We have enjoyed our stay more than you ever imagined. For the past 4 years it has been our "Happy Place"
