    French Creek State Park Campground features a dedicated pet loop in Loop C with full hookup sites for RVs and tent camping. The loop offers spacious sites with paved pads, picnic tables, and fire rings with cooking grates. Philadelphia South/Clarksboro KOA maintains a large, fenced dog park with open play areas for off-leash exercise. Lake-In-Wood Campground provides pet-friendly accommodations including cabins, RV sites, and tent areas, along with a designated dog exercise area. These established campgrounds enforce leash requirements throughout the property except in designated dog areas. Boulder Woods Campground and Ridley Creek State Park also welcome pets with various accommodation options. Most campgrounds limit pets to designated loops or specific sites, with well-maintained shower facilities and hookups available for extended stays with animals.

    Several hiking trails around French Creek State Park allow leashed pets, with connector paths accessible directly from the pet-friendly camping loops. The Philadelphia South/Clarksboro KOA receives consistently high marks for its clean facilities and spacious sites that accommodate pets and their owners comfortably. Lums Pond State Park, though slightly farther away, offers an exceptional off-leash dog area where pets can explore trails and access water play areas along the pond. The secluded nature of these off-leash areas provides a safe environment away from main roads. Fort Washington State Park and Evansburg State Park provide additional pet-friendly camping options within driving distance of Oaks. Campground bathhouses are generally well-maintained with hot water and stocked supplies, particularly important for longer stays with pets. Wildlife encounters are possible in these natural settings, so keeping pets leashed outside designated areas is essential for safety.

      Washington Crossing State Park - TEMP CLOSED FOR 2024

      Revolutionary History near Delaware River

      Nestled along the picturesque Delaware River in beautiful Bucks County, Washington Crossing Historic Park is one of those destinations where American history practically jumps out from behind every tree. This sprawling, beautifully preserved historic park commemorates George Washington's daring Christmas night crossing of the Delaware in 1776, with charming colonial buildings, expansive green spaces, shaded walking paths and lovely riverfront scenery. Divided into Upper and Lower sections, the park offers plenty to explore, from historic homesteads and interpretive exhibits to scenic picnic areas and the impressive Bowman's Hill Tower. Unfortunately, while the park delivers a wonderful outdoor experience, traditional overnight camping isn't part of the equation unless your a Boy Scout or accompanying one of their troops.

      HIGHLIGHTS: (1) Spectacular Revolutionary War history at the very site of Washington's legendary Delaware River crossing; (2) Beautifully maintained grounds featuring mature trees, open lawns and scenic riverfront views; (3) Fascinating colonial-era buildings, historic demonstrations and educational exhibits that bring America's founding history to life; (4) Wonderful recreational opportunities, including walking, cycling, fishing, kayaking and picnicking; and (5) Convenient proximity to charming New Hope, the Delaware Canal towpath and Bowman's Hill Tower, offering plenty of opportunities to extend your adventure. 

      LOWLIGHTS: (1) No conventional public tent or RV camping, with overnight group camping restricted to organized Scout groups by prior arrangement; (2) No dedicated RV campsites, electrical hookups, water connections or dump station; (3) Park grounds generally close at sunset, limiting opportunities to linger into the evening; (4) Some historic buildings and attractions require admission fees or operate on limited schedules; and (5) Periodic restoration projects and special events can restrict access to certain areas, while the historic Washington Crossing Bridge's three-ton weight limit makes it unsuitable for larger RVs. 

      Happy Camping!

      Lowe's - W Windsor

      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!

      Country Acres Campground

      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!

      Round Valley State Park Campground

      Peaceful Wilderness Escape for Adventurous Families

      There's something wonderfully special about escaping into nature where the only sounds are rustling leaves, birds singing and the gentle movement of water along the shoreline. Nestled among the wooded hills surrounding the beautiful Round Valley Reservoir, this rustic SP campground offers families a chance to disconnect from everyday distractions and enjoy a little wilderness adventure together. Unlike traditional campgrounds, the campsites are accessible only by hiking or boating, so getting anywhere here requires some planning and a willingness to travel light. Once you've arrived, you'll find secluded, wooded campsites with picnic tables, fire rings and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors. Amenities are basic, with pit toilets and no showers, but the beautiful reservoir, scenic hiking trails, fishing and kayaking opportunities more than make up for the lack of modern conveniences. Our kids loved exploring the woods, spotting wildlife and gathering around a crackling campfire at night to share stories beneath the stars. For families comfortable with the hike, I'd recommend choosing one of the campsites along the reservoir shoreline for the lovely water views and peaceful surroundings. Just remember that swimming is limited to the park's designated beach area. Round Valley isn't your typical family campground, but for adventurous families who enjoy hiking, camping under the stars and making wonderful memories together, it's a beautiful place to experience nature at its finest!

      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.

      Atsion Family Camp — Wharton State Forest

      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.

      Beacon 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.

      Tohickon Family Campground

      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 Oaks

    Boulder Woods Campground offers pet-friendly camping options near Oaks, Pennsylvania, located in the region's wooded hills at elevations around 300-400 feet. The area receives about 47 inches of rainfall annually, with summer temperatures typically ranging from 65-85°F.

    What to do

    Disc golf excursion: Boulder Woods Campground features an extensive disc golf course popular with visitors. "Great disc golf course, they rent and sell discs. That's where we fell in love with disc golf," shares Erik W., highlighting how this activity can become a new camping tradition.

    Fishing opportunities: Evansburg State Park Campground offers excellent fishing access for pets and their owners. "Great park to do everything outdoorsy including, hiking, horseback riding, hunting and fishing. I caught a beautiful Brown Trout here a few weeks ago!" notes J K., mentioning that a fishing license with trout endorsement ($9.90) is required.

    Creek exploration: Ridley Creek State Park provides pet-friendly creek adventures. "I had the best time here hiking up and down the mini mountains. The water was clear and beautiful and I absolutely loved it," writes Meg F., describing the natural water features perfect for summer cooling off.

    What campers like

    Private wooded sites: French Creek State Park Campground receives praise for its site layout. "All sites have a paved level area which made set up a breeze. Sites were not on top of each other," writes Jen R., appreciating the efficient design that still preserves privacy.

    Year-round accessibility: French Creek offers camping beyond peak season. "Stayed over for one night in early December. Showers and bathrooms were great! If you're traveling through, there are many places to eat nearby," notes Galit P., mentioning the honor system payment method for late arrivals.

    Off-leash dog areas: Philadelphia South/Clarksboro KOA provides dedicated pet facilities. The park is "clean, quiet, full of families. The staff are friendly and welcoming.

    What you should know

    Bathroom conditions vary: Campground facilities receive mixed reviews. At Green Lane Park, "The bathhouse OK, but just basic. Tent spots are just lined up against one another facing a service road," according to Ra F., highlighting the trade-off between convenience and privacy.

    Site selection matters: Lake-In-Wood Campground has some limitations. "The roads were very tight and you really had to watch how you drove through because of the trees. Our site was a drive-through but slanted. There wasn't much room on our site to do anything else," explains Mary C., emphasizing the importance of researching specific sites.

    Wildlife considerations: For pet-friendly camping near Oaks, Pennsylvania, tick prevention is essential. At Evansburg State Park, one camper noted, "We did get a lot of ticks, but not deer ticks, thankfully," showing the importance of checking pets after trail excursions.
