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!

Several RV campgrounds operate within 30 miles of Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, providing varying levels of accommodation for recreational vehicles. Robin Hill Campground in Lenhartsville offers full hookup sites with 50-amp electric service and operates seasonally from April through November. Stonybrook RV Resort in Lehighton features concrete pads with 50-amp service and sewer connections on mostly level sites. "The site was nice and level side to side," noted one camper about Stonybrook. Appalachian Camping Resort in Shartlesville provides full hookup sites and easy highway access, though some reviewers mentioned the buddy sites can be awkwardly arranged with limited space between units. Most parks accommodate big rigs, with pull-through sites available at select locations.
Navigating to some mountain RV parks requires careful driving, with steep entrance grades and tight turns posing challenges for longer rigs. According to one visitor at Stonybrook, "the entrance made for a challenging entry up a steep grade, narrow roadway, and sharp turn in" when arriving with a 45-foot motorhome. Many campgrounds in the region close for winter, typically operating April through October, though a few like Blue Mountain RV Resort remain open year-round. Sanitary dump stations are available at most parks, but cell service varies significantly by location. Pet-friendly policies are standard across the area's RV parks, though specific restrictions may apply. Advance reservations are strongly recommended during summer weekends and fall foliage season when occupancy rates peak.

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.

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.

Better than nothing
Small campground with rude owner. Everything I asked about was putting her out. It was cheap though at $36 for water and electric with a military discount.

Echo Valley Campground
Big sites with lots of trees
We only spent the night and didn't look at the amenities. The manager was very friendly and accommodating.

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.

Beautiful forest
Gorgeous forested area in the Poconos. We stayed on the Rattlesnake Loop which was lovely. Sites not super private but most nestled in trees. The only bummer was that that Campground Loop didn’t have any direct links to the trail network and was far from it. The other Campground Loop was closer to trails and office. Would return!

Stephens State Park Campground
Great last min getaway
Booked the day before—even on the holiday weekend! Just 1.5 hours outside of NYC, site was a bit close to the neighbors (fire pit was very far back and basically in the neighbors’ campsite, but we put up a “privacy clothesline” and hung a tarp over it for a bit of extra coverage.
The staff was friendly and helpful, they said it was the busiest they’ve seen the campground all year (there were lots of large groups but everyone seemed to settle down by 9:30pm
Poison ivy was EVERYWHERE at our site so make sure to stick to the open areas and the paths. Lots of families around, we felt very safe Bathrooms were fine—it was my impression they’re usually cleaner but the high traffic of the weekend left a bit to be desired, (lots of families around=dirty diapers in the bathroom trash bin) but it’s camping! I’m not gonna argue w a flushing toilet!

Indian Head Campground
Newbie here
Was my first ever camping trip with a travel trailer. Site was very clean and well maintained and staff was friendly and great to deal with. Pull through sites (section K) was a little tight - maybe that’s the norm, don’t have anything to compare to but some awnings were near the neighboring camper. Overall, awesome experience.

What to do
Fishing opportunities: At Lake-In-Wood Campground, campers can fish in the on-site pond. "There is a big lawn in the middle which rolls down to the lake," notes one visitor, who also mentioned the campground's convenient weekend hayrides.
Mini golf courses: Several campgrounds maintain mini golf facilities, though conditions vary. At Spring Gulch Resort Campground, "Mini golf was fun but need to be regreened...several holes needed maintenance," reports a recent visitor who still gave the activity a positive review.
Frisbee golf: Active campers can enjoy this increasingly popular sport at certain parks. "They also have a Frisbee golf course on site," mentions one reviewer about Robin Hill Campground, adding that the hillside location means "you will get your exercise walking to the pond, pool, capstone or basketball courts."
What campers like
Heated pools: Many campgrounds in the region maintain heated pools, which extend the swimming season. At Stonybrook RV Resort, "The pool was warm, clean and enjoyable," according to one reviewer, who also appreciated the overall cleanliness of the property.
Quality bathrooms: Clean facilities remain a priority for many campers without self-contained units. "Shower / bathrooms are the best I've ever seen," writes one winter visitor to Stonybrook RV Resort who stayed January-February. Another campground received praise for "individual bathrooms and showers. Each was pretty clean and spacious."
Entertainment options: Scheduled activities enhance the camping experience at many locations. "The weekend we were there they had A chicken dinner. It was actually very good," reports a visitor to Lake-In-Wood, who also mentioned enjoying the campground hayride around the property.
What you should know
Site drainage issues: After heavy rainfall, some campsites may experience drainage problems. A visitor to Robin Hill Campground noted "Sites are swampy if they've had rain! Took us over two hours to disconnect because of mushy, muddy site!"
Entrance challenges: Several mountain campgrounds have difficult approaches. The entrance at Stonybrook "made for a challenging entry up a steep grade, narrow roadway, and sharp turn in," according to a visitor with a 45-foot motorhome towing a vehicle.
Reservation policies: Early booking is essential, particularly for specific site types. Some campgrounds charge early arrival fees—one camper reported "Check in is at 3pm, we showed up at 2:45 after a 7 hr drive and they made us pay $15 extra" at Appalachian Camping Resort.
Tips for camping with families
Playground options: Several campgrounds maintain play areas for children, though quality varies. Sun Valley Campground offers "Great swimming pool, immaculately clean bathrooms and showers" along with "a nice playground and a GaGa pit," according to visitor reviews.

Scheduled activities: Family programs enhance the camping experience. One Robin Hill camper noted, "They had an art activity for the children, BINGO on Friday night, and a live band on Saturday night," showing the range of entertainment options available.
Tips from RVers
Leveling challenges: Site grading varies significantly between campgrounds and even within the same property. At Appalachian Camping Resort, "buddy sites" can be problematic as one RVer noted, "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 and that left us very uneven."
Site surfaces: RV pads range from concrete to gravel to grass. "The site was nice and level side to side," noted one camper about Stonybrook, which features concrete pads at premium sites. In contrast, some sites at Spring Gulch were described as "fairly level, but are very rocky."
Seasonal considerations: Many RV campgrounds near Schnecksville have limited winter operations. Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort remains open year-round with a review noting, "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."
