      Ricketts Glen State Park Campground

      Beautiful Falls!

      What a great campground! We stayed here on a recommendation from a friend after the Overland Expo. Great hiking trails and the falls were absolutely breathtaking. Truly enjoyed our stay and plan to return!

      Shikellamy State Park Campground

      meh

      i mean meh with the most enthusiasm as you can live your entire life & be oki not going here. the trails are small & the overlook is fenced high for falls. it’s about as much scenery as going for a walk deer hunting. it’s beginner friendly if anyone wants to start getting into parks but i feel there’s more focus on pavilions & playgrounds than calling it a state park. for anything boating or canoeing on the river it’s a good place to be but your in town so it take it for what it is

      Council Cup Campground

      Better than nothing

      Small campground with rude owner. Everything I asked about was putting her out. It was cheap though at $36 for water and electric with a military discount.

      Echo Valley Campground

      Big sites with lots of trees

      We only spent the night and didn't look at the amenities. The manager was very friendly and accommodating.

      Sunsational Family Campground

      I would not recommend to anyone

      This campground is nothing as stated in the reviews.  And now I know why.  The one review on here besides mine is from the owner.  The bathrooms are not clean. I was told for Labor Day weekend I could stay for two nights had reserved and all.  They then abruptly cancelled my reservation and took three days to respond and say I could have a different cabin and tent sight but would need to stay three nights because of the holiday.   They also charged a cleaning for a service pet which is not legal.  We then showed up and were the only people staying that weren’t seasonal site people and very not welcomed.  The first comment made was here come the weekend warriors.  We look at the cabin which was ironically filthy and covered in mouse poop yet we got charged a cleaning fee.  The grass was not mowed the porter potty’s so gross bugs are crawling in the bottom.  The camp store was closed during the car show they had and when we asked when it will be open they stated it will not.  It was 1 pm on a Saturday.  The reservation process was unorganized.  The playground was not mowed or weed whacked and a slide is ratchet strapped together.   I would not recommend this place to anyone.

      Indian Head Campground

      Newbie here

      Was my first ever camping trip with a travel trailer. Site was very clean and well maintained and staff was friendly and great to deal with. Pull through sites (section K) was a little tight - maybe that’s the norm, don’t have anything to compare to but some awnings were near the neighboring camper. Overall, awesome experience.

      Moon Lake Recreation Area Campground — Pinchot State Forest

      Quiet camping

      Just a few others here so it is quite peaceful. A one mile walk gets you to the lake. They have a covered pavilion with plenty of picnic tables. My site is large with plenty of trees providing shade. The outhouse is a bit of a walk. Garbage cans are inside it. I haven’t seen a water source but it might be around.

    Guide to Milton

    Campgrounds near Milton, Pennsylvania offer diverse options across wooded settings and riverside locations. The region features multiple creek and river access points where dogs can enjoy the water alongside their owners. Most campgrounds maintain regular quiet hours between 10pm and 8am, with temperatures ranging from mid-40s at night to upper 70s during summer days.

    What to do

    Fishing at stocked ponds: Lake Glory Campground maintains a fishing pond where the fish are consistently active. As Frank G. notes, there's a "nice little lake to fish in" that stays well-stocked. Many campers report the fish are "always hungry" and regularly bite.

    Visit amusement parks: Multiple campgrounds offer proximity to Knoebels Amusement Resort, a local attraction. Lake Glory Campground provides a shuttle service, with one visitor mentioning, "There's a shuttle to Knoebels Amusement Resort" that eliminates parking concerns. The park features "no parking or admission fees," allowing visitors to pay only for selected rides.

    Enjoy waterways: The Susquehanna River creates numerous recreational opportunities. Riverside Campground & Riverside Roadhouse lets campers "enjoy the riverside camping" with spots directly along the water. One visitor shared their experience: "Kids enjoyed the pool and swam in the river. Big huge park and tons of grassy areas."

    What campers like

    Private wooded sites: Raymond B. Winter State Park Campground offers secluded sites surrounded by forest. One camper described it as "Pretty nice campground, camp sites all over and very secluded and private." Another camper praised the natural setting: "Beautiful state park. The campground is clean and well kept."

    Kid-friendly amenities: Jellystone Park Camp-Resort at Milton specializes in family activities with programmed entertainment. A visitor explained, "They had the entire weekend planned for us. My wife and I don't like to so having a busy weekend for the kiddos was a great thing. There were so many activities to choose from."

    Clean facilities: Williamsport South-Nittany Mountain KOA maintains well-kept bathrooms and showers. One camper reported, "The bath house was very clean and had nice warm showers." Another noted the overall maintenance: "Beautiful campground, most sites are wooded."

    What you should know

    Site spacing varies significantly: Many campgrounds in the Milton area feature tight site layouts. At Fantasy Island Campground, visitors reported challenges with site size, noting "Very tight parking" and "Sites are all tiny and right on top of each other." One camper shared, "We could barely park our 34 ft travel trailer because the sites are so tight."

    Weather considerations: The region experiences seasonal flooding that affects camping areas. One visitor at Riverside Campground reported, "We unfortunately got stuck in infamous Northeast PA weather but we made the best of it. There were thunderstorms and campsite was a little flooded but we were still able to camp."

    Reservation timing: Popular campgrounds fill quickly, especially during summer months. For Lake Glory, campers advise to "Book early....these sites fill fast!" particularly for premium locations like "creek side sites" where "kids can wade in the water to cool off."

    Tips for camping with families

    Playgrounds and recreation: Little Mexico Campground offers multiple recreation options for children. A repeat visitor mentioned, "My husband and our three sons usually camp here at least two times a summer. We always get a site by the creek and have a great time." The campground maintains "a nice general store, pool, and family friendly activities."

    Cabin options: For families not interested in tent camping, Knoebels Campground provides cabin accommodations. A visitor explained, "We have camped in our pop up but we have also rented the cabins here too. Either way is a great way to stay the weekend and enjoy the park." The cabins feature "three double beds with two up top in the loft and one down below."

    Swimming opportunities: Most dog friendly campgrounds near Milton include swimming areas. Raymond B. Winter State Park features "a beach area is clean, there's a big playground on it as well as a concession stand and store." One camper described the water as "super cold and clean water, as it is fed by two mountains streams."

    Tips from RVers

    Hookup stability: When temperatures rise and multiple units run air conditioning, electrical capacity can fluctuate. At Splash Magic RV Resort, one camper observed, "Electric ran below 110 volts the entire weekend and the water had a brownish tint to it. It was a VERY hot weekend so I should mention that everyone had their air running."

    Pull-through options: For easier parking, Riverside Campground offers accessible sites. A visitor mentioned, "We had campsite 19 - pull through with full hookups (50amp, cable, water, sewer). The site was nice and long. Even though they have had a lot of rain in this area, our jacks did not sink into the ground and the site was pretty level."

    Seasonal considerations: Little Mexico Campground operates with varying amenities through different seasons. An off-season visitor noted, "We would love to see this place during peak season! We got here yesterday during the start of off season and it was still functioning at a high standard!"
