"I got an amazingly large site with a nice fire pit and picnic table. The site was very level so that was great! Nice indoor and outdoor pools! Cable TV isn't free, but I never use it anyway."
"We first had a 2 point site near the river, but when it rains the sites get flooded with runoff from the campground. We moved to a full hookup on the Delaware section."
"Tent sites are lined up along the water which is great for fishing (especially when you need to stay close to the littles sleeping in the tent). Lots of benches lined up along the water."
"This Campground is in the town of Lancaster, close to everything. A little complicated getting in, you need to turn in at the Cartoon Network Hotel driveway. Nice showers & friendly staff."
"This is a great spot for visiting Pennsylvania Amish of Lancaster County and about a one-hour drive to Hersheypark. Our site(# 837) was a good size for our motor home+ toad."
"The pool is new and has a sloped entrance so my two year old could play by himself and loved it. The new bathhouse has better restrooms than my own home! Everything is clean and well managed."

"The location also kept us fairly bug free."
"There was a lot of space so walking our dogs was great. The smaller bathroom stalls are pretty small but got the job done. Playground and pool were both nice and clean. Wonderful place for a family."
"We stayed here in November with beautiful weather which meant the large farm behind the campground was spraying manure over their fields. We could smell it."

TravelerCountry Acres is a lovely, well maintained campground. Sites are level and bath house facilities clean and modern. Friendly staff in the office. Dog friendly. Local to all the Lancaster attractions. A complimentary farmland tour is offered by bus and it was great. They take you out into an area of Amish farms and shops and make a stop at 2 of these. The fresh Amish pretzels are amazing!
GuideGreat campsite. Fire pit, picnic table, swimming pool ( not open), miniature golf course, laundromat, bathrooms, showers, dump station, gathering areas for groups, playground, and even a horse area and stalls for horses. Dog friendly. Staff was very helpful and curious.
GuideWe booked two nights mid October not realizing that it's duck hunting season and that hunting is allowed RIGHT by the campground - with kids everywhere. We were jolted out of sleep at 5 am by gun fire right near our site. It kept up for the next hour. In addition, the bathrooms, although clean are in poor condition. Peeling paint everywhere with bare concrete in the showers. For such a pretty site, we had a miserable stay. We left after one night.
GuideWhere we were camping had blown up their dump station. Artillery Ridge helped us out. $10. to dump. If we come to camp in Gettysburg, it will be hear.
GuideYou just can't beat a pennsylvania park. This one is not an exception. Nice clean restroom, plenty of room. Now, what cost a star. Yes, it rained like hell. When we broke camp and go dump. The dump station was overflowing with sewer. Go to the guard shack to tell them, and find another site. None there. Can I go to an unused full hookup to dump? No! I would have to pay for the site. Two hours later, we found a place to dump for $10.
ScoutThe advertisements for Olde Mill Campground were disingenuous. The campsite was 20 yards from a roller coaster. The NOISE of the roller coaster and children on it screaming was as relentless and unnerving as any train we have ever slept near. There was no quiet until almost midnight. The “pull-through” site left my truck almost in the road and our 25’ Airstream slightly over the road on the backside. The site was not level. The sites were close enough to hear a neighbor’s snoring.
GuideWe stayed here to go to the Hershey RV show—about 55 min drive. Right in the center of Amish country. Campground is adults only. It was very clean. The bathrooms were very clean with great water pressure. The roads are tight for getting into sites. Site 5 was not level side to side. We met great people there.
ScoutThe campground is in excellent condition. The facilities are top notch. The excellence and care of the campground is evident. The 4 stars is only due to the road noise and many of the sites are on top of each other. You feel like your neighbor is at your camp fire.
TravelerThere was no hot water in the showers. There are no dog poo stations. There is a dumpster marked “STAFF ONLY”. It’s nice they have a place to stuff the staff!

Swimming amenities: Multiple cabin properties maintain swimming facilities. Edison L. from Country Acres Campground said, "Amenities are super clean and modern. Clean bathroom, laundry room, pool area for the kids, and a well stocked store." Another visitor praised "The pool is new and has a sloped entrance so my two year old could play by himself and loved it."
Themed weekends: Seasonal events enhance the cabin camping experience. At Thousand Trails Circle M, "They had Halloween ever at every weekend of October and we spent Halloween weekend here. The kids loved it!!" Similarly, Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park hosts themed events where "They brought a cake to the camp with Booboo for my daughter."
Woodland sites: Some cabins offer more secluded natural settings. Christine L. noted at Tucquan Park, "The primitive sites are back in the woods which kept us nice and cool on hot July nights. The location also kept us fairly bug free."
Seasonal considerations: Operating schedules vary throughout the year. At Spring Gulch Resort Campground, "Pool open seasonally" and some activities are limited by staffing in shoulder seasons, with one camper noting, "Not enough staffing to keep amenities like pool open after 5 during the week."
Noise factors: Environmental sounds can affect your experience. Kathy L. observed at Pinch Pond Campground, "Main drawback is noise from road and shooting range nearby. Fortunately our dog wasn't bothered by the sound of gunshots and it's only during the day."
Occupancy patterns: Weekend crowding is common at most cabin locations. At Tucquan Park, one reviewer mentioned the campground "gets packed on weekends" with "lots of families enjoying their time together."
Pool access for children: When booking cabin accommodations with kids, prioritize properties with child-friendly swimming facilities. At Country Acres Campground, a parent shared, "The pool is new and has a sloped entrance so my two year old could play by himself and loved it."

Site selection strategy: For those with rental cabins and RVs traveling together, consider strategic site booking. One camper at Mill Bridge Village & Camp Resort recommended, "Look at the map when selecting a site. The sites in the center are like a parking lot. Small, no shade and wide open. We prefer the creek side sites."
Cabin location considerations: Many cabin renters recommend selecting locations away from main roads or facilities for quieter stays. At Spring Gulch, campers note that "Most of the campsite options are fairly level, but are very rocky," important for those considering mixed RV and cabin arrangements.
Arrival timing: For cabin rentals at popular destinations, arrival time matters. At Thousand Trails properties, "First come, first serve. Meaning you have to arrive early in order to get the best spots. For everyone complaining about driving around and not finding spots, if you get there early enough around 1 pm, you won't have a problem."
