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 parks within 30 miles of Schwenksville, Pennsylvania provide year-round and seasonal options for motorhome travelers. Village Scene Park in Hatfield operates all year with full hookup sites featuring 50-amp service, though the park maintains a no-fires policy that distinguishes it from other area campgrounds. Tohickon Family Campground offers spacious RV sites with water and electric hookups, though some visitors note the terrain can become challenging after rain. Lake-In-Wood Campground in Narvon provides both 30-amp and 50-amp service with full hookups in a more resort-style setting. "Our site was level and covered in clean gravel, had a paver patio with table and chairs, and a nice fire ring with more chairs," noted one Lancaster-New Holland KOA visitor, highlighting the well-maintained infrastructure common at higher-rated parks in the region.
Navigation to some RV parks requires careful planning, particularly for larger rigs. Colonial Woods Family Resort received caution from one reviewer: "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)." Most campgrounds in the area offer sanitary dump stations, though Village Scene Park charges a $20 fee and operates limited hours (9am-4pm Monday-Friday only). Cell service varies by carrier and location, with AT&T generally providing better coverage than Verizon at most parks. Pet-friendly options are abundant, with dedicated dog areas available at several locations. Seasonal availability varies significantly - many parks operate April through October, while others like Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort and Village Scene Park remain open year-round for winter RV camping opportunities.

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!

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.

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.
Brian T.ScoutCountry Acres Campground
Excellent But.
The campground is in excellent condition. The facilities are top notch. The excellence and care of the campground is evident. The 4 stars is only due to the road noise and many of the sites are on top of each other. You feel like your neighbor is at your camp fire.
Kelvin R.ScoutTohickon Valley County Park
First time camping
As far as experience it was good. The main issue was the campsite where we were was uneven and caused many of the sleeping arrangements that we had to be not level. This seems to be a specific issue to the group campsite number two as when we went inwards it seemed like everything else was much better.

Water recreation: Several campgrounds offer fishing ponds or river access. "The campground sits in the center of a horseshoe curve of the river, bring tubes and kayaks! We didn't know but went and bought a tube and spent the day on the river!" reports Karla R. at Thousand Trails Circle M.
What campers like
Year-round facilities: Winter camping options exist at several parks in the region. "We stayed here during the winter January-February no activities going on. It does offer beautiful views especially covered in snow. Has a heated pool and playground, laundry facilities and a small game," writes Jamie S. about Stonybrook RV Resort.
Indoor amenities: Many parks maintain indoor facilities for off-season comfort. "There's a nice indoor and outdoor pool. Nice playground. We were down by the river and had a lot of room on our site," shares Leanne B. about Thousand Trails Circle M.
Scheduled activities: Organized events enhance the camping experience at many parks. "The staff was friendly and very helpful. You could leave your trash at the end of your site everyday and it was picked up by the staff, you did not have make trips to a dumpster. An excellent little surprise for me was the farm truck they had drive around Saturday morning," describes Melissa Y. about Appalachian Camping Resort.
What you should know
Site conditions vary significantly: Some campgrounds have uneven terrain that can be problematic in wet weather. "Sites are swampy if they've had rain! Took us over two hours to disconnect because of mushy, muddy site! Our usual disconnect and set up time less than an hour!" warns Linda F. about Robin Hill Campground.
Reservation policies: First-come systems operate at select locations. "As with all thousand trails, this campground is first come best site. While the top part of the campground seemed more communal, we chose the lower, Riverside sites and we're glad we did!" explains Karla R.
Off-peak limitations: Services may be reduced during shoulder seasons. "Dump station... opened 9-4pm M-F, but closed on the weekends (to our chagrin, we found this out too late!)," notes Stuart K. about Village Scene Park.
Tips for camping with families
Theme accommodations: Unique lodging options appeal to families with children. "The one we stayed in had a set of bunk beds, a queen bed, and a fold out couch. It also had a bathroom with shower/tub and everything you would need except linens," describes Phinon W. about Spring Gulch Resort Campground.
Water features: Pools remain a popular amenity. "The pool was open until 10pm everyday. This campground has free mini golf. You can borrow golf clubs but you do have to buy balls," mentions Melissa Y.
Local attractions: The region offers activities beyond campgrounds. "Great place to relax. They are expanding and upgrading sites. They do have a pool, but it's not open yet. Quiet time was no problem. Everyone was respectful and nice," notes Luis B. about Stonybrook RV Resort.
Tips from RVers
Site selection strategies: Buddy sites can present challenges for some RVers. "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," cautions Melissa Y.
Leveling challenges: Terrain varies widely between campgrounds. "Our site was nice and level side to side. Their pool looked very nice although we did not use it. Same with their patio set up around the store," reports Jonathan F. about Sun Valley Campground.
Weather considerations: Weather impacts accessibility at many parks. "Some of the sites are fairly level, but are very rocky, so this is something to keep in mind if you are tent camping. We have heavy duty solid steel pegs and still had trouble pegging everything down," advises Phinon W.
