Several RV parks accommodate various camping needs around Perkiomenville. Appalachian Camping Resort offers full hookup sites with both 50-amp electric and water connections, operating from April through October. Robin Hill Campground provides similar amenities with level gravel sites suitable for larger motorhomes. "The roads are very narrow, pretty sizable boulders on both sides, trees are very low and need to be trimmed," noted one camper about Colonial Woods, highlighting navigation challenges for fifth wheels. Sun Valley Campground features spacious pull-through sites with 50-amp service, though some back-in spots require careful maneuvering, especially for rigs exceeding 35 feet in length.
Within 30 miles of Perkiomenville, dump stations are available at most established RV parks but not at county parks like Green Lane. Cell service varies significantly across the region, with stronger signals near highways and weaker coverage in mountain areas. Pet-friendly options include Village Scene Park, which remains open year-round but prohibits open fires on the property. Many campgrounds fill quickly during autumn foliage season, particularly on weekends. According to one visitor at French Creek State Park, "pitiful low water pressure in Loop C" and "sewer connection is high; needs to be knocked down to ground level" presented challenges for RV hookups. Propane refill services are limited, requiring travelers to plan ahead for extended stays.

What a great place. So unique! Love the view, and a great experience! There are no hook ups, so be prepared but if you are looking for the dispersed camping experience you have found it. What a gem!

LegendHickory Run State Park Campground
Peaceful State Park Camping in the Fall
This is a large campground with a wide array of campsites so be careful attention when you book online, especially if you have a pet because some sites are not pet-friendly. Some are 50-amp full hook-up and some are primitive with no hook-ups.
There is a nice nature center with interesting interpretive exhibits and lots of informational brochures including ones about the hiking trails, bears, scat and tracks of local animals, and fishing. Our site was at the edge of the campground and backed up to Route 534 which resulted in a bit of road noise at our site. Other than the road noise the campground was pretty quiet and was not very crowded when we camped there in October.
Not all sites are level and we happened to book one that was not and we had to live with a slant for our stay. The roads in the park are gravel/dirt and since it rained the day we arrived the roads were a muddy mess which made the roads slippery and there were lots of potholes. Unfortunately, some campers were disrespectful and left bags of trash in the fire pit and scattered around their site which was totally unnecessary because there were dumpsters plenty of dumpsters in the campground. Since we camped at Hickory Run late in the season, there were no camp hosts and the trash never got picked up.
The campground is open from mid-April to mid-December; however, the shower facilities and dump station are not available after the third week of October so plan accordingly. We really like the hiking trails which are of varying degrees of difficulty and lengths. The Hawk Falls is a nice easy walk (1.4 miles round-trip) to a waterfall but is extremely popular so don’t think you will be admiring the falls alone. The parking lot at this trail head fills up fast so you better get there early if you want to get a spot.
You can enter the park from two different directions. If you have a big-rig, it is best to approach from the east side. We made the mistake of coming in from the west side as we dropped down from I-80 and came down 534 and the road was really windy with no shoulder. Luckily, there was very little traffic so we could go 10 mph and safely navigate the roads.
Be aware alcohol is not allowed in PA state parks. This park does allow hunting in certain sections of the park. The no-hunting areas are clearly marked with white no hunting signs on trees and you can also pick up a brochure from the office that designates hunting and no-hunting sections.

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!
Peggy C.TravelerCountry 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!

The best views
This is a hidden gem, as close to dispersed camping you can get with dirt, gravel roads, large stone fire pits, a amazing views with the added benefit of a five gallon jug of non potable water and very clean port-a-potties. The owner regularly patrols the site and makes sure everything is okay.

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.
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 Perkiomenville
Tent and RV sites near Perkiomenville, Pennsylvania occupy varied terrain within Montgomery County's suburban-rural landscape, where elevations range from 200-500 feet above sea level. The region experiences four distinct seasons with summer temperatures averaging 75-85°F and winter temperatures frequently dropping below freezing. Proximity to Green Lane Reservoir provides water recreation options at several campgrounds, though seasonal closures from November through March limit winter camping availability.
What to do
Fishing opportunities: Deep Creek Campground at Green Lane Park offers a 2,100-acre reservoir for anglers. "Phenomenal disc golf course, hiking, and fishing" notes Benjamin C., highlighting multiple recreation options beyond standard camping activities.
Explore historic Amish Country: Located within 30 miles of Perkiomenville, Spring Gulch Resort Campground serves as a central base for exploring Pennsylvania Dutch culture. "Hidden Amish Country Gem. This resort is a lot bigger than you would anticipate from the road/entryway. Tons of amenities for families including mini golf, an arcade, pools, fishing ponds, etc," reports Paulina B.
Winter activities: Unlike most seasonal campgrounds, some properties remain open year-round. "We stayed here during the winter January-February no activities going on. It does offer beautiful views especially covered in snow," shares Jamie S. about Stonybrook RV Resort, indicating winter camping options despite reduced amenities.
What campers like
Well-maintained facilities: Campers consistently mention cleanliness as a key factor. At Stonybrook RV Resort, "The laundry area and shower rooms are beautiful and clean," according to Cindy, who adds "The place was meticulously clean and the permanent campers keep their sites so well."
Themed accommodations: Unique lodging options draw families to Lake-In-Wood Campground, where specialized cabins create memorable experiences. "There are a lot of really neat and different rentals here like a tree house, double decker bus, among others," mentions Jen R., highlighting distinctive accommodation types beyond standard camping.
Accessibility: For campers prioritizing location, Village Scene Park offers strategic positioning. "Located 30 miles or so northwest from 'The City of Brotherly Love,' VSP is ideal for a leisurely weekend or longer getaway," notes Stuart K., who appreciates the "incredibly quiet" setting "far enough away from busy traffic."
What you should know
Site leveling challenges: Several campgrounds present terrain difficulties. "Sites are swampy if they've had rain! Took us over two hours to disconnect because of mushy, muddy site," warns Linda F. at Robin Hill Campground, suggesting campers bring extra leveling equipment during wet seasons.
Limited privacy: Tent sites at public parks often lack separation. At Green Lane Park, "The sites are lined up next to each other along the campground driveway and there are absolutely no trees or shrubs between them," observes Jen, while another camper notes that "spaces are right on top of each other with no tree cover between spots."
Seasonal population: Many RV parks near Perkiomenville operate primarily as extended-stay communities. "90% of the people here are full time," reports Alan about Sun Valley Campground, while Tori mentions Stonybrook is "Mostly seasonal campers, we were one of the few transient campers for our visit."
Tips for camping with families
Activity planning: Thousand Trails Circle M offers comprehensive recreation for children. "We enjoyed everything and the people were friendly. Worth the trip!" shares Nathan S., while Leanne B. adds, "Lots of events to keep the kids busy. We happened to be there on the weekend a magician came, my kids loved it."
Off-season value: Scheduling trips during shoulder seasons provides better availability. "We first had a 2 point site near the river, but when it rains the sites get flooded with runoff from the campground," cautions Kasey M. about Circle M, suggesting site selection matters significantly during rainy periods.
Recreation variety: Campgrounds with diverse activities prevent boredom during longer stays. "The campground had 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," advises Jen R. about Spring Gulch, noting facility limitations during peak periods.
Tips from RVers
Site selection strategy: At Appalachian Camping Resort, choosing the right location within the campground impacts experience. "We were unaware that our site was a buddy site... The buddy site was very narrow and since our buddy arrived first we had no choice but to park farther down on the site to avoid our awnings touching," explains Melissa Y., warning about space constraints in shared areas.
Hookup variations: Water pressure and connection heights differ significantly between campgrounds. "Our site was full hook up. It was a nice size and was in a good location - near the ponds, pool, office, and bathhouse - but was still quiet!" reports Becca U. about Appalachian, highlighting the advantage of central yet peaceful site locations.
Layout navigation: Some properties require careful maneuvering. "The roads were very tight and you really had to watch how you drove through because of the trees," notes Mary C., while Luis B. cautions about Robin Hill that "One star taken away because fire pit is within feet from poop sewer connection of neighbor."
