4 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Slumberland at the River's Edge provides four luxury glamping accommodations along the Neversink River near Millrift, Pennsylvania, with several other glamping sites available within a 20-mile radius. The glamping options include furnished safari-style tents, yurts, and distinctive glamping cabins at properties like Kittatinny Campground and Oakland Valley Campground. One visitor noted, "The most beautiful campsite ever. Don't cheap out. Get the tubing package as well." Modern amenities distinguish these glamping campsites from traditional camping, with many offering electricity, comfortable beds, picnic tables, and fire rings, while premium locations like Stokes State Forest provide glamping options with nearby showers and toilet facilities in a year-round setting.
The Delaware River region surrounding these glamping destinations features abundant recreation opportunities directly accessible from the sites. Rafting, tubing, and kayaking excursions prove especially popular, with Kittatinny Campground organizing water adventures for guests staying in their glamping accommodations. A recent visitor mentioned, "We had a blast. The quality of the sites, of the rafting gear, and overall it is an amazing stay." Most glamping sites in the area remain open seasonally from April through October, though Neversink River Resort operates year-round. Beyond water activities, glampers access hiking trails in High Point State Park and Stokes State Forest, with on-site amenities varying between locations—some offering markets and firewood sales, while all maintain pet-friendly policies for those bringing animals on their luxury camping getaway.

"To get there, you have to drive about 2 miles down a road away from the welcome center. This is nice because it is quiet from traffic from cars."

ScoutOctober leaves starting to fall makes for a very quiet, peaceful midweek evening in one of the two dispersed car camping sites. Exactly what I was hoping for - private and empty and lovely. Easy to find - two dispersed car sites are to the left at the fork in the road before the trailhead.
RangerI'll start by saying this is a site-specific review (C20). I booked using Campspot and didn't select my own site but put in the criteria for my rig (30ft TT plus truck) and got a 50A back-in spot. The site was big but abnormal. Between the picnic table placement and the trees, I ended up right around 50ft from the electric and water, and the water spigot was so low I could barely put on my camco filter. With the uneven dirt roads, I had to unhitch with my truck in a gigantic puddle (lol). The site was otherwise fine aside from my gate code not working on Day 2. As for the campground as a whole, I thought it was pretty unique place by the river that offered several good amenities and activities, like downstream river tubing, an arcade, bathroom/shower facilities, a small store, little trails, and more. I would say this place borders the more primitive side.
RangerWe camped here in our pop up for our Anniversary in November. We were impressed with the cleanliness and available amenities for the time of year we were camping in! Close proximity to DWG and PA AND NJ attractions.
TravelerAnother great experience. Sites were large. Staff was friendly with many different things for kids to do. Great base camp for local hikes.
ScoutWe reserved for a day. Very bad service. The river is super dirty and they did not even clean the trash cans. Besides, the fire ring has no grill cooking grate, so if you don’t bring your own NO GRILLING. Ryan was the person in front that took care of us, he was rude, my kids felt weird because he was not welcoming at all. Also, we try to ask for a partial refund since we did not felt comfortable since the beginning, and they said NO. We have experience camping, but this one was simply THE WORST. We lost the money but we won’t put our kids in a difficult situation. Thanks.
ScoutWe stay at a lot of Jellystone parks so have become accustomed to the park layouts and activities. This one was well maintained with clean facilities. Some things like the mini golf and fire pits needed maintenance. The pools were nice but get very busy later in the day. The sites up on the hills are nice but beware, it’s a hill! There is little to no WiFi or cell service or it gets easily bogged down, so be ready for that. Food was basic but good. Some activities like bingo were a bit chaotic and there were a lot of ground hornets around the jumping pillows. Would totally go again.
TravelerWe’ve been to Camp Taylor twice now for tent camping: September 2021 and May 2023. We stayed at the rustic tent sites both times, and there was room for 2 cars and 2 tents. Depending on how you want your setup, there are some that are more secluded and others that are close together and would be great for group camping.
The staff are all lovely and take the time to explain the rules both in-person at check-in and on the forms they provide at the time of booking. They are not hiding how seriously they take rules like quiet hours, and it will keep campers like me coming back. If you are respectful of the folks around you and especially during the posted quiet hours, you will have no problems.
The office and shop keep supply of snacks, firewood, and gifts. There are flush toilets mapped in spots of the tent sites (SUCH a pleasant surprise! I was expecting a porta-potty or vault toilet), and hot showers are available at the same complex as the office.
ScoutI spent 4 days and 3 nights with my 6th grade Girl Scouts. We were at sites 23 and 24 which worked out great because they back up against each other. The bathrooms were super clean and well maintained. There are outlets at the bathroom building by the sink to charge any electronics. The playground is adequate and the field is big for playing. There are many things to do close by too like the observatory, Round Valley beach, Grounds for Art, etc. We all really enjoyed ourselves and plan on returning.
TravelerWe were looking for a lakeside campground with a spacious campsite that could comfortably fit two large tents and two vehicles. We chose Tobyhanna State Park, and it turned out to be absolutely wonderful.
We stayed at Site 113, which had plenty of space on the right side of the campsite for two large tents, with enough room to park two vehicles as well. While the campsites are fairly close to one another, most visitors come here to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet, and everyone seemed very respectful of each other’s privacy.
Just a one-minute walk from our campsite, there was a very clean restroom, hot showers, and a laundry facility. Right next to it, there was a volleyball court, as well as easy access to the lake with a boat launch and great spots for fishing.
On our very first day, the park rangers warned us that bears sometimes visit the campground, so they recommended storing all food in the car overnight. We followed their advice and had no issues.
Overall, I would give Tobyhanna State Park a perfect 10 out of 10. We had an amazing experience and will definitely be coming back!
The Delaware River region offers multiple glamping destinations near Millrift, Pennsylvania. The riverside location provides access to multiple recreation zones including High Point State Park and the Delaware Water Gap. Seasonal factors affect availability with most locations open from April through October, though temperature fluctuations can impact comfort levels throughout the camping season.
Trail exploration: High Point State Park features multiple hiking options with varying difficulty levels. One visitor noted, "We fit in a hike up to the Appalachian Trail from our campsite, swam at the pond (Lake Marcia), and got in a fishing session at Steeny Kill Lake. The slight downside was that we had to drive between the different lakes" (High Point State Park Campground).
Water activities: Kittatinny Campground organizes river excursions for varying skill levels. A camper explained, "My college friends go here each year to meet up and we have so much fun. The group sites are great and perfect for our 30-50 people. Definitely go for the rafting/tubing package, it was the best part of the trip!" (Kittatinny Campground).
Wildlife observation: Many sites throughout the region offer opportunities to interact with animals. At Pleasant Acres Farm, "The farm has goats, a donkey, and a pony within the campground. Very cool" (Pleasant Acres Farm RV Resort).
River access: Sites directly adjacent to waterways remain popular for both recreation and relaxation. A visitor to Oakland Valley Campground stated, "Our location was by the river and did not disappoint. It was a rocky location but we didn't mind" (Oakland Valley Campground).
Privacy levels: Campgrounds offer varying degrees of seclusion. At Shotwell, "Campsites nice and private. Only one other camper on the other loop. Rustic. Perfect for me. Spacious campsites."
Family activities: Many locations provide organized events and amenities for children. One visitor to Kittatinny shared, "This place was so fun for the entire family, it wasn't that busy, so we didn't really have to worry all the time about the kids getting ran over! The park ranger person came through and gave the kids cool posters, and just made it a very fun place for all the kids."
Seasonal visitation timing: Weekday visits often provide more space and quiet. As one camper noted, "We were there at the end of the season, which we loved bc we practically had this huge campground to ourselves."
Noise considerations: Some campgrounds experience significant activity on weekends. A camper at Kittatinny noted, "Busy campground no quiet time loud music till 3 in the morning. Very clean, workers very friendly and helpful but after dark no one around. If you looking for a peaceful campground not the place to go."
Site quality variations: Within the same campground, significant differences exist between sites. A Stokes State Forest visitor explained, "Some of the sites had a platform to set up your tent on which is nice, especially if you are going after it recently rained. Our site had a picnic table and fire ring" (Stokes State Forest).
Glamping close to Millrift, Pennsylvania: Luxury options provide additional comfort but at higher cost points. Slumberland at the River's Edge offers elevated accommodations where "The host put out a orange cone that made finding our campsite easy and a nice beach made unloading and loading kayaks pretty easy. The accommodations were top notch, with lights already on, and a table set, along with a grill, fire pit, and covered porch and canvas tent that housed two queen sized beds."
Cell service: Limited connectivity exists throughout the region. One camper at Slumberland noted, "The lack of phone service was a blessing in disguise, allowing us to disconnect from technology and truly immerse ourselves in nature."
Activity planning: Multiple attractions may require driving. A visitor to High Point State Park noted, "The site was maybe a 50-yard walk-in and we barely heard anyone around us and had a real wilderness feel."
Tent platform selection: Elevated platforms provide better weather protection. One camper explained, "The tent was too long for the 12'x10' platform, so we had to set it up on the flattest part and hope not to roll down the hill in the night. We stayed 5d/4n. We ended up tearing down the large tent and setting up a smaller one on the platform for the last night, due to rain."
Campground layout: Understanding site distribution affects movement around the property. At Pleasant Acres Farm, "The office, playground, dog park, pool, laundry are located at the top of the hill. Camping spots are downhill, a good distance from the office and amenities."
Level site selection: Many campgrounds have uneven terrain requiring adjustment. A camper at Mountain Top RV Park advised, "If you're booking, it may be best to book on the upper levels because the lower area where we were did flood pretty bad a couple times when there was a lot of rain" (Mountain Top RV Park).
Seasonal hookup availability: Full amenities may be limited during off-peak months. A visitor noted, "The restrooms were closed for the winter, so we didn't get to use or see those. They have a small playground that would be better suited for older children."
Site access considerations: Road conditions impact larger vehicles. One camper reported, "When you leave you have to drive the wrong way in the campground because of the low hanging trees the correct direction."
