1. Spring Gulch Resort Campground
"There was a craft show in the barn which was nice. Only two dump stations for a pretty large park. We would camp here again but not over a holiday."
"The campsites available are primitive or have water and electric and bathhouses / restrooms are located in a few spots around the park. Fire rings are at each site, but appear to get moved a lot."
2. Sun Valley Campground
"Well wooded campground with friendly staff and guests. The only minor complaint is that the camp store was sparsely supplied. B+ little gem of a campground."
"Showed up on Wednesday, and was assigned a spot in loop 700 up on a hill in the center of a ring of trailers, past a lot of full-timers. Cable does not work. No internet. 2 bars LTE on T-Mobile."
3. Robin Hill Campground
"It's too bad it is mainly seasonal sites back there. This campground is called Robin HILL for a reason. You will get you exercise walking to the pond, pool, capstone or basketball courts."

Easy access to Lancaster and Pennsylvania Dutch areas. Friendly, welcoming staff and plenty of colorful trees in the autumn. The only RV park in the area that is open year round.

Upscale Parking Paradise at This Home Fixer-Upper
Located just off US Route 1 in the upscale Princeton area, this spacious Lowe's serves up a surprisingly pleasant patch of pavement for weary road warriors looking to catch some shut-eye. Set back roughly 80 yards from the highway, this big blue home improvement retailer offers a generously sized parking lot with relatively manageable traffic, good maneuverability and a quieter atmosphere than you might expect from such a busy suburban retail corridor. The western and southern edges of the lot are particularly appealing for an overnight stay, and with Trader Joe's, Starbucks and several other retailers nearby, convenience certainly isn't in short supply. Better yet, the store management was friendly and accommodating when we called ahead to arrange our overnight visit.
HIGHLIGHTS: (1) Spacious, paved parking lot with plenty of room to maneuver larger rigs; (2) Convenient access to US Route 1 and nearby I-95; (3) Western and southern parking areas offer quieter spots away from the busiest customer traffic; (4) Excellent nearby conveniences, including Trader Joe's, Starbucks and several dining options; and (5) Friendly store management that welcomed our overnight stay, plus surprisingly good opportunities for outdoor recreation nearby.
LOWLIGHTS: (1) Some daytime retail traffic and occasional road noise, although nothing terribly disruptive; (2) No RV hookups, dump station or dedicated overnight camping facilities; (3) Parking areas closest to the store can become crowded during business hours; (4) Limited greenery and little of the scenery you'd expect from a traditional campground; and (5) While the overnight experience was excellent, this is still a commercial parking lot rather than a destination for an extended stay.
Happy Overnighting!

Lovely campground!
Country 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!

Old Mill Stream Campground
Never Again
The 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.

Pine Barrens New Jersey
This campground is part of the Wharton State Forest and has several campgrounds in the area. Great wooded sites right on a lake. Pretty good separation between sites with good tree separation between sites. Some road noise not overly affecting site.

Adam and Suzanne B.GuideBeacon Hill Camping
Great location
We 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.

Simple, peaceful FHU
We stayed just a couple nights here on our way north. The camp host was helpful before our stay and during check-in. Our site was pretty isolated from the others, so it was very quiet (no complaints here). There is a decent mix of sunny sites by the river and shady sites under the trees. The weather was perfect mid September. There wasn't anything spectacular for me, but it was a good experience and it was a nice taste of fall PA scenery. Beware that the roads are tight for a big rig. Side note, it did seem like most campers lived there.
Guide to Newtown Square
RV parks near Newtown Square, Pennsylvania include several campgrounds within a short drive. Most Newtown Square-area campgrounds sit between 200-500 feet elevation in the rolling hills of southeastern Pennsylvania, where summer temperatures average 85°F and winter lows reach the 20s. The region experiences four distinct seasons, with fall camping particularly popular due to vibrant foliage displays from late September through October.
What to do
Disc golf and hiking: Deep Creek Campground at Green Lane Park offers access to multiple trails and a highly-rated disc golf course. "Phenomenal disc golf course, hiking, and fishing," notes Benjamin C., highlighting the variety of outdoor recreation options within walking distance of campsites.
Fishing opportunities: Both ponds and larger lakes are available at several campgrounds. At Lake-In-Wood Campground, visitors can fish in the stocked pond. One visitor mentioned "Goats to pet and watch" as an additional attraction, showing the family-friendly nature of the facilities.
Seasonal activities: Many RV parks near Newtown Square organize special weekend events, particularly during holidays. Spring Gulch Resort Campground hosts themed weekends including "A craft show in the barn which was nice," according to Jen R., who camped there during Memorial Day weekend.
What campers like
Clean facilities: Bathroom quality varies across campgrounds, but several receive positive reviews. Deep Creek Campground provides "clean bathrooms" according to Joe B., while Thousand Trails Circle M earns praise for being "Super clean and nice people!" as Nathan S. notes.
Water recreation: Swimming options range from natural to constructed. Thousand Trails Circle M campers appreciate riverside access, with Karla R. advising "The campground sits in the center of a horseshoe curve of the river, bring tubes and kayaks! We didn't know but went and bought a tube and spent the day on the river!"
Well-maintained sites: Particularly at Lake-In-Wood Campground, which Steve R. described as "Very well kept camp ground. The Prime Sites are very spacious," though he also noted that the "Fishing pond is a joke and near by Gun Range can be annoying and tough on pets."
What you should know
Site privacy varies: Some campgrounds offer little separation between sites. At Deep Creek Campground, Jen observed "sites are large but there is NO privacy. The sites are lined up next to each other along the campground driveway and there are absolutely no trees or shrubs between them."
Terrain considerations: Sites can become waterlogged after rain. At Robin Hill Campground, one RVer reported "Sites are swampy if they've had rain! Took us over two hours to disconnect because of mushy, muddy site!"
Seasonal availability: Most campgrounds near Newtown Square operate April through November. Lake-In-Wood Campground remains open slightly longer than others, while Village Scene Park offers year-round RV accommodations in a suburban setting.
Tips for camping with families
Pool access: Many campgrounds offer swimming pools as alternatives to natural water features. Lake-In-Wood Campground provides both indoor and outdoor pools, with Beth B. mentioning "Heated spa/pool in upper area are a bonus," though noting that "Staff was nice but not enough staffing to keep amenities like pool open after 5 during the week."
Playground options: Most family-oriented campgrounds include playground equipment. Sun Valley Campground offers a playground centrally located for easy access from most sites.
Entertainment beyond camping: Some RV parks near Newtown Square feature mini-golf and arcade games. Paulina B. described Lake-In-Wood as a "Hidden Amish Country Gem" with "Tons of amenities for families including mini golf, an arcade, pools, fishing ponds, etc. Not to mention live music on the weekends!"
Tips from RVers
Site selection: Choose sites carefully based on access needs. At Village Scene Park, Stuart K. observed "Sites are narrow and can feel cramped, so don't expect big pull-throughs," though he appreciated the "Convenient suburban location near Philadelphia yet surprisingly quiet."
Electrical reliability: Power consistency varies between parks. Some campgrounds provide both 30- and 50-amp service, while others offer only one option, so check ahead when making reservations.
Dump station access: Not all campgrounds have convenient dump station hours. Village Scene Park offers dump service with a $20 flat fee, but hours are restricted to weekdays between 9am-4pm with no weekend availability, which can complicate departure planning.
