RV parks near Souderton, Pennsylvania typically operate on gravel lots with hookups for electric, water, and sewer. Located in Montgomery County at 443 feet above sea level, Souderton experiences hot summers and cold winters, with camping season extending from April through November at most facilities. Snow accumulation from December through March makes most campgrounds inaccessible during winter months except for Village Scene Park and a few others that remain open year-round.
What to do
Fishing opportunities: Green Lane Park features multiple fishing spots around its reservoir, with catch-and-release areas for bass and pike. "There is a pond for fishing however we didn't have any luck. It had a lot of pond scum and there were a lot of duck families around," noted one visitor about the fishing conditions at Robin Hill.
Mountain biking: The trails at Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort offer downhill biking with rental equipment available. "Ride the ski lifts up to the top of the mountain then you get to bike down it, they have rental bikes available or bring your own," reports a camper who enjoyed the terrain.
Disc golf courses: Several parks offer disc golf, with Green Lane Park featuring an 18-hole course that winds through wooded areas. "Phenomenal disc golf course, hiking, and fishing," shared one visitor who enjoyed the recreational options within 20 miles of Souderton.
What campers like
Proximity to Amish Country: Spring Gulch Resort Campground provides access to authentic cultural experiences. "Amish stores/attractions close by for some entertainment also," shared a visitor who appreciated the location, just 25 miles from Souderton.
Swimming pools: Many campgrounds maintain heated pools that extend the swimming season. "The pool was very nice and refreshing. I liked how the kid area wrapped around and connected to the deeper end," commented a Robin Hill visitor about the pool layout.
Entertainment options: Lake-In-Wood Campground hosts regular weekend events with live music and activities. "We experienced the hayride around the campground. The weekend we were there they had a chicken dinner. It was actually very good," noted a visitor describing the scheduled programming.
What you should know
Bathroom facilities vary widely: Check reviews for current conditions before booking. "Upper showers were much better, no bugs and water was hotter. Heated spa/pool in upper area are a bonus," reported a Spring Gulch visitor, highlighting the inconsistency between facilities.
Lot conditions: Many sites require leveling equipment. "Sites are swampy if they've had rain! Took us over two hours to disconnect because of mushy, muddy site!" warned a camper at Robin Hill about seasonal challenges that affect RV setup.
Campground activities: Activity schedules vary by season and day of week. "Showed up on Wednesday, and was assigned a spot in loop 700 up on a hill in the center of a ring of trailers. Cable does not work. No internet," noted a visitor at Sun Valley Campground, describing the midweek experience compared to weekends.
Privacy concerns: Site spacing varies drastically between parks. "The sites are lined up next to each other along the campground driveway and there are absolutely no trees or shrubs between them," observed a local resident about Green Lane Park's layout.
Tips for camping with families
Playground accessibility: Appalachian Camping Resort offers play areas near camping sites. "The playground was luckily right across from us up on the hill. They also have a Frisbee golf course on site," mentioned a Robin Hill visitor who appreciated the convenient location.
Kid-friendly activities: Look for campgrounds with scheduled children's programming. "They had a craft show in the barn which was nice," noted a Spring Gulch visitor who camped during a holiday weekend.
Pool hours: Check seasonal operating times before booking. "Staff was nice but not enough staffing to keep amenities like pool open after 5 during the week," reported a Spring Gulch visitor, highlighting a common restriction during off-peak days.
Tips from RVers
Site selection: Request sites away from seasonal campers for better maintenance. "They've chopped many sites in half, so on many sites you are right on top of someone else," warned a visitor at Robin Hill about crowded conditions that affect comfort.
Low voltage issues: Bring surge protectors for electrical safety. "We had an issue with our surge protector and the manager had an electrician out to us quickly who helped us solve a problem," shared a visitor at Stonybrook RV Resort about electrical challenges common to the region.
Interior road navigation: Larger rigs should call ahead for turn radius information. "The roads were very tight and you really had to watch how you drove through because of the trees," cautioned a Lake-In-Wood visitor about maneuvering challenges.
