What to do
Explore disc golf courses: Boulder Woods Campground features an extensive disc golf course that attracts tournaments and casual players alike. "They do allow golf carts we saw gas and powered. Nice and quite. We had a great time and it's on our list as a successful tent camping location for us. The owners are AWESOME!" according to a review from Boulder Woods Campground.
Visit historic sites: The region contains significant historical landmarks within driving distance of cabin accommodations. At French Creek State Park Campground, "we were able to do so much even though it rained the entire weekend we were there," notes a visitor about proximity to nearby attractions including Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site.
Water activities on multiple lakes: Fishing and boating options exist across several parks. "There are two lakes in French Creek, Hopewell and Scott's Run and each contain many species of fish. We spent Saturday afternoon fishing but not catching anything at Scott's Run. It's a beautiful location and it was still a fun way to spend the day with the kids away from the site," mentions a camper about French Creek State Park Campground.
What campers like
Private wooded sites: Tohickon Valley County Park offers secluded camping areas away from crowds. "It's a small state run campground for tent camping. All the sites have a ton of room to stretch out! (Room for fire/ grill pits) There are bathroom facilities which have showers," says one review of Tohickon Valley County Park.
Proximity to Delaware River: Campgrounds situated near waterways provide additional recreation opportunities. "The campground is in the mountains of PA close enough to the Delaware River that we took a trip down using bucks County river tub company. We didn't have to go tubing because there was so much to do," notes a visitor to Colonial Woods Family Resort.
Family-friendly amenities: Many campgrounds offer activities specifically designed for children. "The pooL and splash pool for toddlers was clean with a lifeguard on duty at all times. They had a playground, lake where you could fish, cornhole, and minigolf," writes a camper about their experience at Colonial Woods Family Resort.
What you should know
Seasonal operation schedules: Most cabin rentals follow specific opening dates. "We did a weekend trip with just adults, tent camping. It was quite muddy so we moved our set up into the grass field," reports a camper about spring conditions at Boulder Woods Campground.
Bathroom distance considerations: Cabin locations relative to facilities varies significantly. "The tent spots are pretty much on top of each other, not much privacy. If you're tent camping the bathrooms are FAR and I highly doubt no one has ever peed outside at night instead of navigating through the night to them," advises a visitor to Ringing Rocks Family Campground.
Weather preparedness: The region experiences variable conditions even during peak seasons. "The set up was relatively easy, although one person might have some difficulty. It held up well during an evening thunderstorm, but for a small seam leak near the door," notes a camper at French Creek State Park Campground about their shelter during unexpected weather.
Tips for camping with families
Explore wildlife viewing options: Natural areas around cabins provide opportunities to observe animals. "We've never heard so much wildlife there as I did here. Only shortly after we settled into our tent did we hear foxes fighting right outside our tent, the snorts of deer, and there were bats right above us all night making noise!" shares a camper about their experience at Mountainview Campground.
Check pool operating hours: Swimming facilities may have restricted schedules. "The posted pool hours were not as described they don't really tell you but it was open a little later if not the posted hours were like 6pm and it way to early for a hot summer day," notes a visitor to Colonial Woods Family Resort.
Plan for varying campsite conditions: Research specific sites when bringing children. "Our spot was #27 and pretty spacious. The showers were free and clean with hot water and decent pressure. The landing for the camper was even with gravel and the rest of the site was mostly even," advises a Mountainview Campground visitor.
Tips from RVers
Site selection for larger rigs: Not all campgrounds accommodate big RVs comfortably. "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," cautions a visitor to Colonial Woods Family Resort.
Dumping station logistics: Plan for potential congestion when departing. "Dump station location isn't ideal on a busy morning. I heard they might work on a second dump location and was told to ask if it's ok to stick around until it dies down if our site isn't needed soon," recommends a camper at Colonial Woods Family Resort.
Leveling considerations: Terrain at some sites requires preparation. "Sites were not on top of each other. Bathrooms were very nice and clean with large showers. Nice area to wash dishes. Very nice playground area and clean. All sites have a paved level area which made set up a breeze," explains a visitor describing the layout at French Creek State Park Campground.
