Best RV Parks & Resorts near Portland, PA

RV parks in the region offer a range of accommodations for motorhomes and travel trailers. Timothy Lake North and South campgrounds provide full hookup sites with 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer connections from May through October. Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort remains open year-round with spacious sites that accommodate larger rigs. "Sites are level, good placement of electric water and sewer connects," noted one camper at a nearby resort. Thousand Trails Scotrun features big-rig friendly sites with full hookups, though the access roads at some campgrounds in the area can be challenging for larger vehicles, with one reviewer mentioning "the roads are very narrow, pretty sizable boulders on both sides, trees are very low and need to be trimmed."

Several campgrounds feature pull-through RV pads that simplify arrival and departure, particularly helpful in the mountainous terrain. Cell service varies significantly across the Poconos region, with multiple reviews mentioning spotty coverage, especially during rainy weather. Dump stations are available at most parks, though not all sites offer full hookups. Many parks enforce quiet hours despite weekend crowds, and campers with pets will find most facilities accommodate them. For those traveling during peak seasons, advance reservations are strongly recommended as popular RV sites fill quickly, especially those with premium amenities like cable TV or Wi-Fi. Navigation to some mountain parks requires careful planning as several reviews caution about tight turns and low-hanging branches that can damage taller RVs.

    Village Scene Park

    Tucked-Away Community Vibe

    I’m following up on my review from over a year ago with updated insights, additional photos and a quick breakdown of HIGHLIGHTS and LOWLIGHTS: 

    HIGHLIGHTS: (1) Convenient suburban location near Philadelphia yet surprisingly quiet; (2) Full-hookup RV sites with 30 / 50 amp, water, and sewer; (3) Affordable rates compared to other campgrounds in the region; (4) Smaller, tight-knit atmosphere with friendly long-term residents; (5) Pet-friendly, with walking areas and green space; and (6) Nearby restaurants include Franconi’s Pizzeria for classic pies and cheesesteaks and Appalachian Brewing Company with pub fare and house-brewed beers. 

    LOWLIGHTS: (1) Sites are narrow and can feel cramped, so don’t expect big pull-throughs; (2) Limited amenities with no pool, clubhouse, or playground; (3) Grounds feel more like a residential mobile home park than a campground; (4) Some infrastructure is dated and could use upgrades; and (5) Not much in the way of natural scenery because, um, this is urban camping. 

    Happy Camping!

    Kymers Camping Resort

    Fun, friendly & nestled in the woods

    We stayed at Kymer's on a whim for a weekend, so we could be close to Mountain Creek for a Spartan Race. It truly exceeded our expectations in all aspects. This is a family friendly, camper-friendly place. Lots of seasonals- everyone waves, everyone stops to chat. This is what a campground should feel like. The sound of laughter and play sitting around the huge, clean pool was refreshing. Our site was Oak 10. It was level, good placement of electric water & sewer connects. Camp store has all the basics you might need. There is a brook that flows adjacent to the property. It's peaceful & magical. Pet friendly, although we didn't have our pup with us. We will be back again. I almost feel like I'm revealing a hidden gem with this post. 💎

    Colonial Woods Family Resort

    Not big rig friendly.

    Ok so let me start off by saying. If we still had our smaller travel trailer this review would’ve been at least 4 stars. However this place is not the place for you if you have a fifth wheel. The roads are very narrow, pretty sizable boulders on both sides, trees are very low and need to be trimmed (almost took my ac out with a huge limb). Now if you’re not big rig camping like we do, this place is great for you. Close to the ringing rocks and three other towns. We were able to do so much even though it rained the entire weekend we were there.

    Pros Great People beautiful surroundings Nice Bathrooms Quiet and Peaceful Accessible Nice Pool Every store U could Need is in about 15 mins Away Not Alot of Stupid rules just Be respectful Pet friendly

    Mountain Vista Campground

    Mt Vista Campground

    Beautiful Campground. Clean. Gravel sites. Fire ring and picnic table. All sites have ample room. Lots of pull through for bigger rigs. Wooded. Large dog park. Love the Campground except our site is near a fairly busy road which takes away from that beautiful tranquility. They have camouflaged it as best they could. Friendly staff. Lots to do. Pool, tennis. Sauna, pond for fishing ( catch & release ). Would definitely recommend.

    Stonybrook RV Resort

    This is a great place!

    We spent four nights at Stonybrook RV Resort in Lehighton, PA, for a quiet wedding anniversary getaway— and so glad we did. We paid$150 per night total for a FHU 50 Amp Premium Back-in site (#F20). This campground makes a great home-base while hanging out in the Pocono Mountains. 

    THINGS I LIKED: 

    • This place is in super condition— everything works as it’s supposed to and is clean and maintained 
    • The concrete pad/patio with Breeo smokeless fire pit, Adirondack chairs, and metal patio table and chairs made a great setup 
    • Our site(F20) is level and beautiful— spacious and beautifully landscaped 
    • We interacted with 5 members of their staff and all were welcoming and friendly to talk with 
    • There’s a heated pool behind the office/store so it’s not noisy for campers at their sites 

    THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE SO MUCH: 

    • Just one thing— the entrance made for a challenging entry up a steep grade, narrow roadway, and sharp turn in. I made it without problems, but it wasn’t easy in a 45’ motorhome towing a Jeep. This may be nitpicky— and I’m not complaining about it— just letting you know to expect it on arrival. 

    WOULD WE COME BACK? 

    • Absolutely, this is a great campground(I’ve already recommended it to my Newmar Kountry Klub chapter president as a possible site for a future rally).

    Tobyhanna State Park Campground

    Great family campground

    This place only gets 4 stars because I thought we were going to have water and electric hook ups. They only have 2 kinds of sites, modern electric (only electric) and primitive. They have a potable water station and dump station and very few sites with electric hook up. They also have specific pet friendly sites. We had a wonderful time here. We went for Father’s Day weekend in June. The lake is gorgeous! Beachfront swimming and boat rentals, great biking and hiking trails. Sites are mostly separated by trees but are still close. Bath houses were very clean and they have a dish washing sink as well. Beach is within walking and biking distance. Two cons- Bath house at the beach is 50 cents for a 2-minute shower, so we just went back to the campground bath house to clean up. The playground near sites 53-56 is a little underwhelming. Otherwise was a great stay! We already booked another stay in September this year!

    The Pines Campground — Promised Land State Park

    Quiet, just remote enough, a Great Lake, and nice camp hosts

    I stayed for three nights in a pull through trailer site with 50 AMP and 30 AMP electric. Easy to get in and out of, nice and shady, big spaces so you were not on top of one another, and nice and quiet. Clean and modern bath house, water close by, and great camp hosts. Definitely recommend it.

    Mahlon Dickerson Reservation

    Nice, small, spacious campground

    We stayed at site 15 for 5 days. The sites are nicely wooded, very well spaced, fairly level with 50A service and water hookup. Although the water spigots were shared between sites, they provide hose caddies that should reach most RV hookups. No sewer hookup, but there is a convenient dump station. There are no fire rings in the RV section, only raised grills. We had the place pretty much to ourselves during the week, but the weekend did get busy. AT&T had ok data connection with 1-2 bars most of the time. There is no satellite coverage due to the heavy tree canopy. OTA TV was very inconsistent using an external omni antenna. There is no WiFi. There is a very nice network of trails in the reservation, most if not all were leashed dog friendly. There is a very nice restaurant, Stone Water, less than 10 miles away and is right on lake Hopatcong.

What to do

Mountain biking adventures: The region offers specialized mountain biking trails with equipment rentals available. "You can also Zip line or swing through the trees if you would rather," mentioned a camper describing the adventure options at Blue Mountain Resort.

Fishing access: Multiple sites provide catch-and-release fishing opportunities in stocked ponds. At Robin Hill Campground, "There is a nice lake for fishing" according to one reviewer, though they cautioned it "had a lot of pond scum and there were a lot of duck families around."

What campers like

Quiet weekday camping: Many campgrounds experience significant differences in atmosphere between weekdays and weekends. One camper at Thousand Trails Scotrun noted, "We came in at end of season, so pretty much everything seems closed. But, it's a beautiful campground and the part of PA is great too."

Proximity to attractions: Campers appreciate the region's central location to both outdoor and urban destinations. "The Delaware Water Gap is about a 15min drive from the campground and a beautiful place to hike," mentioned a visitor at Cranberry Run Campground who hiked the Red Dot trail.

Group camping options: Several campgrounds offer merged sites for larger parties. At Cranberry Run Campground, "We had a group of 10 people and they were able to put us all on the same site. looks like they have permanently merged sites 81 and 82."

Winter accessibility: Unlike many northeastern campgrounds, some RV sites remain open year-round. A winter visitor at Stonybrook RV Resort shared, "We stayed here during the winter January-February no activities going on. It does offer beautiful views especially covered in snow."

What you should know

Water pressure variations: Water systems vary significantly between campgrounds. At Thousand Trails Timothy Lake South, one camper reported "Best water pressure I have seen on the east coast, unregulated it's over 80 psi."

Site drainage issues: Several campgrounds experience drainage problems during rainy periods. A reviewer at Robin Hill noted, "Sites are swampy if they've had rain! Took us over two hours to disconnect because of mushy, muddy site!"

Seasonal closures: Many amenities shut down outside peak season. "We came in at end of season, so pretty much everything seems closed," reported a visitor at Thousand Trails Scotrun.

Road conditions: Access roads present challenges in mountainous areas. At Tri-State RV Park, a visitor advised, "Ext 53. Straight at the light. Drive all the way down to the end of the road."

Tips for camping with families

Playground proximity: Request sites near play areas for convenience with children. A camper at Robin Hill Campground observed, "The playground was luckily right across from us up on the hill. They also have a Frisbee golf course on site."

Pool facilities: Many campgrounds offer swimming pools, but availability varies seasonally. At Stonybrook RV Resort, a visitor commented, "Their pool looked very nice although we did not use it. Same with their patio set up around the store."

Multi-generational accessibility: Several campgrounds accommodate varying mobility needs. "We were also right at the bottom of a trail that lead straight up the mountain (Pocono) with beautiful sites and of course photo opportunities for my family and I," noted a multi-generational camping group at Cranberry Run.

Kids' activities: Scheduled events often occur primarily on weekends. At Robin Hill, "The activity director organized a nice continental breakfast, free chair massages, and raffled off manicure and pedicures. They had an art activity for the children, BINGO on Friday night, and a live band on Saturday night."

Tips from RVers

Highway proximity considerations: When seeking convenient rv sites near Portland, Pennsylvania, consider noise levels. At Tri-State RV Park, campers note it's "Located just off the highway so lots of vehicle noise 24/7. Sites are on a gravel lot."

Seasonal site differences: Year-round RV parks operate differently in winter. "Campground was clean, staff was friendly, sites were decent. My kids explored the playground and found it sufficient," reported a visitor at Timothy Lake South during off-season.

Site leveling preparation: Mountain campgrounds often require leveling equipment. A visitor at Stonybrook RV Resort noted, "This place has never come up in any of my searches for a campground but my wife was frantically trying to find a place to stay for Memorial Day weekend. The site was nice and level side to side."

Winter water systems: Some RV campsites maintain working utilities year-round. "Sites are level, very good placement of electric water and sewer connects," observed an off-season camper at one of the region's resorts that remains operational during colder months.
