      Goddard Park Vacationland Campground

      Near Beautiful Lake Wilhelm

      Nice park with very friendly staff. My only complaint is the sites are way too crowded. Also a little uneven. I love that this park is close to Lake Wilhelm & Goddard State Park for fishing and bike riding. 2 pools and a dog park.

      Mosquito Lake State Park Campground

      Big, beautiful lake!

      Great park! Sites are spacious and level. Very clean park. There are several full hook-up sites. Electric sites near the lake. We stayed at site #96. New Bathrooms are under construction. Campground is flat and great for bike riding. Nice playground for kids. Dog park nearby. Camp is near beach & marina. Also many shops and restaurants within a 10 minute drive. We will definitely be coming back to Mosquito Lake!

      Jamestown Campground — Pymatuning State Park

      Great state park

      Nice shower and bathrooms for a state park.

      I didn't like that pets are not allowed in the non-pet area as that was where the playground and swimming beach was. Made it difficult to swim and play as a family since you can't leave dogs alone at the campsite. I wouldn't bring my dog next time to this campground. There are other more dog friendly places.

      Very nice areas for walking, kayaking, swimming, and playground.

      Mosquito Lake State Park Campground

      Great place!

      The sites are huge. The dog park is amazing. Theres so much to do here. Swimming, boating, fishing. We love it. Only bad are no real bathrooms except at the front of the park. No place to wash dishes. Rough if you're tent camping. But we love the sites so much that we keep coming back.

      Willow Lake Campground

      Nice and quiet with good layout

      The sites are big with a range of surfaces available. Family run and immaculately kept. Grassy areas are cut and lush, showers and bathrooms are very clean and the layout is excellent. They have a dog park that is fenced in, no bare spots (all grass), a rock and other apparatus for dogs to climb and they even have a fire hydrant! Plus two shady spots under trees for adults to sit and relax. If we are ever going through their area we will definitely stay there again.

      Willow Lake Campground

      Always Satisfied

      This is the second time we have camped here. The first time back in 2020 we paid for the cement pad spots and had zero issues. There aren’t any shade trees near the cement pad sites but the sites themselves are immaculate. This Labor Day weekend we stayed in a pull thru gravel spot. Minimal effort to get leveled and set up. Staff is friendly, site is beautiful with a few smaller trees. Nice play area for anyone who has kids. Dog park is also very nice sans the fact you have to walk past the bee infested dumpsters to get there! This is probably the most quiet campgrounds we have stayed at in the past 2 years! Very relaxing and a great place to stay!

      Mosquito Lake State Park Campground

      Great State Park Campground

      We just got back from our first trip to Mosquito Lake State Park Campground. All in all, it was a great experience. 

      We stayed in site 67, which is a waterfront site, with electric. The water is about 25 yards from the pad, but is visible from the entire site. The site was spacious, but not as private as some of the others. There is some woods between this site and the sites on either side, but other sites are visible. The fire pits and picnic tables were staggered, so it created some distance to make it feel more private. 

      The campground as a whole, was very quiet. We stayed from Wednesday to Friday. The group next to us seemed a little rowdy when we first pulled in, but by 10:00 there was no noise anywhere near us. 

      Most sites seemed pretty level from side to side, but where we were, several had a slope from front to back. Away from the waterfront, most sites looked pretty level. The amount of space between sites varied from site to site. Some sites had woods on both sides, while others were pretty open. Some had nice large grassy areas, others were much smaller. Sites from 214-224 are in a cul de sac and are water front, but they were pretty close together with very little privacy between sites, if any. They are very close to the water though. 

      There are bathrooms and water scatter about, but from what I saw there was only 1 shower house. 

      Wal-mart and other shopping and restaurants were about 3 miles away. Park was easy to get to, only one turn for us off the highway. Lake was great for kayaking and paddleboarding. Very nice dog park in a different part of the park. There is a boat launch accessible from inside the campground. 

      Dump station has 2 lanes which was nice when checking out. Fresh water fill up was also located near the dump station.

      Geneva State Park Campground

      Monster Campsites!

      This park has huge campsites ! The pads are paved and they left a section of trees/woods behind each site to provide some privacy between neighbors. The bathrooms are very clean and the staff were helpful and friendly. The park is directly across the road from the paved bike trail which leads to the beach, marina, lodge and strip area. The trail is dog friendly but the beach is not. The campground is also pet friendly.


    Guide to Saegertown

    Camping sites in the Saegertown area sit within northwestern Pennsylvania's unique glacial landscape, approximately 40 miles south of Lake Erie and 1,300 feet above sea level. Summer temperatures typically range from 60-85°F while spring and fall nights can drop into the 30s. The region features multiple ponds and streams formed by glacial activity, creating diverse fishing opportunities throughout the camping season.

    What to do

    Fishing at riverside sites: Folly's End Campground offers campsites along a large stream where trout fishing is readily available. "Great place to park fish and enjoy wildlife. Bring your camera fishing rods or hiking boots," notes Jim L. Sites include tire rim fire pits and picnic tables with convenient electric and water hookups.

    Bike the Pymatuning Spillway: Access the trail from Linesville where cyclists can ride to see the famous carp feeding area. "Save that old loaf of bread so you can feed the carp. Look up to spot a bald eagle beautiful sunsets and sunrise's. Have to go at least 1 time to this park," recommends Jim L. about Pymatuning State Park Campground.

    Lake activities beyond swimming: While many campers focus on swimming, Pymatuning offers multiple water-based options. "If you take your boat or rent one at the marina you can go out on the lake and you will see eagles for sure!! There are also a lot of other birds to enjoy," notes AnnaMarie S. from Linesville Campground.

    What campers like

    Spacious campsites: Many campers appreciate the roomier sites at certain campgrounds. "The Tuttle Campground was enjoyable. It is a well maintained park with big spacious spots," reports Tracy F. Sites at Linesville Campground provide generous spacing between neighbors compared to more crowded options in the region.

    Waterfront views: Lake access sites offer memorable scenery throughout the day. "The picnic table was a mess however. Most of the wood was rotten. We had a great time though and the mooring area for boats was very convenient," shares Kevin E. about his experience at Linesville Campground despite minor issues.

    Fishing amenities: Specialized facilities for anglers distinguish certain campgrounds. "The campground fish cleaning station with complimentary fridges/freezers" is highlighted by Britt B. at Jamestown Campground - a feature that serious fishers appreciate after successful outings.

    What you should know

    Site levelness varies significantly: Some campgrounds have more even terrain than others. "Spots are VERY close together (think sitting next to your neighbors sewage pipe) despite the fact it was off season, owners packed everyone into a single location," reports Mommy D. about Sparrow Pond Family Campground, though they still enjoyed the "spectacular" view.

    Cellular coverage considerations: Network availability differs between locations. "Verizon cell service at the campground" was noted by Joni P., which is important for campers needing to stay connected. AT&T service is also reported as good at some locations like Folly's End Campground.

    Campground busyness levels: Some areas become quite crowded during peak seasons. "Our site had a great view of the sunsets and the water! The picnic table was a mess however. Most of the wood was rotten," notes Kevin E., suggesting that prime waterfront sites may have maintenance issues due to high usage.

    Tips for camping with families

    Playgrounds and activities: Not all campgrounds offer equal entertainment options for children. "There is a small swing area in the campground but you kind of had to walk through some sites to get to it. No hiking from the campground," observes Joni P., suggesting families should research recreation options before booking.

    Swimming options vary: Beach quality differs significantly between locations. "Beach area was small but clean and had new sand," notes Joni P. about Erie KOA, which offers a "nice playground with a bounce mat that our kids loved" according to Jennifer O.

    Pet-friendly planning: Dog friendly campgrounds near Saegertown require careful site selection for families with pets. "If you have younger kids, this site is for you. The playground is right there as is the beach," suggests Jennifer L., though some parks restrict pet access to certain areas which can limit family activities.

    Tips from RVers

    Hookup positioning: Some sites have unusual utility arrangements. "RV dump station and water fill up conveniently located in the center of the grounds," notes Britt B., which helps when planning arrival and departure logistics at Pymatuning State Park.

    Site selection for large rigs: "The sites are not level and are very crowded. It is good for an overnight stop," advises Kelly F. about Erie KOA, suggesting that bigger rigs may want to request specific sites when making reservations.

    Seasonal considerations: "Check weather ahead it got rainy and with that came heavy winds, otherwise would have been a very pleasant night," warns Amy F. about camping near Lake Erie, where weather conditions can change rapidly and affect RV stability.
