RV parks near Sumneytown provide varied options for motorhome travelers throughout eastern Pennsylvania. Village Scene Park in Hatfield offers year-round full-hookup sites with 50-amp service and big rig accessibility just 5 miles from Sumneytown. Sites are equipped with picnic tables and most have gravel pads with adequate spacing for slide-outs. "The roads are very narrow, pretty sizable boulders on both sides, trees are very low and need to be trimmed," noted one RV owner about navigating certain campgrounds in the region. Sun Valley Campground in Narvon accommodates both large and small RVs with full hookups on mostly level sites, while Robin Hill Campground in Lenhartsville offers similar amenities operating seasonally from April through November.
Several RV parks require advance planning during peak seasons, particularly autumn when fall foliage attracts numerous visitors. Navigation to mountain campgrounds often involves navigating elevation changes and tight turns that may challenge drivers of larger motorhomes. Most parks provide sanitary dump stations, though water pressure varies considerably between locations. According to one camper, "Sites range from 50 amp W/E/S to 30 amp W/E, some sites also have cable." Cell service tends to be stronger at parks closer to Hatfield and weaker in more rural locations like Lenhartsville. Pet-friendly options exist at most parks, though specific loops or sections may have restrictions. Winter camping options are limited primarily to Village Scene Park, with most other facilities closing between late October and early April.

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!

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.

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!
Peggy C.TravelerCountry Acres Campground
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.
Adam and Suzanne B.GuideBeacon Hill Camping
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.
Guide to Sumneytown
RV sites near Sumneytown, Pennsylvania provide camping opportunities within a 35-mile radius of this small Montgomery County community. The region features rolling hills with elevations ranging from 300 to 900 feet and experiences four distinct seasons. Winter camping options remain limited in this area, with temperatures typically dropping to the 20s during January and February, while summer months see averages in the mid-80s.
What to do
Fishing ponds and lakes: Green Lane Park offers a serene setting for anglers with its quiet fishing areas. "Green Lane Park is a beautiful park with several well marked trails for hiking. The campgrounds are clean but the sites are way too close together and there is not any privacy," notes one visitor to Deep Creek Campground at Green Lane Park.
Disc golf courses: Several campgrounds maintain disc golf courses for guests. "Phenomenal disc golf course, hiking, and fishing," reports a camper who visited Green Lane Park. This activity provides an excellent option during spring and fall when temperatures are most comfortable.
Mountain biking trails: Blue Mountain offers extensive mountain biking opportunities 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," explains a visitor at Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort. The trails range from beginner to advanced levels.
What campers like
Heated pools: Many RV parks maintain pools that extend the swimming season. At Spring Gulch, "Heated spa/pool in upper area are a bonus. Lots of sports gear available for free to use within park, has to be returned by 5 when main office closes," according to one camper at Spring Gulch Resort Campground.
Clean facilities: Consistently maintained restrooms and showers rank high with visitors. "Shower/bathrooms are the best I've ever seen," reports a winter camper at Stonybrook RV Resort. Another notes, "Bathhouse OK, but just basic. Tent spots are just lined up against one another facing a service road."
Event programming: Many campgrounds host regular weekend activities. "They had a live band one evening. Activities though the day were fun. Clean bath houses and staff was friendly," reports a visitor to Appalachian Camping Resort. Special holiday weekends typically feature expanded programming.
What you should know
Site privacy concerns: Many parks have limited separation between campsites. "The sites are lined up next to each other along the campground driveway and there are absolutely no trees or shrubs between them," reports a visitor at Green Lane Park. Similarly, sites at Sun Valley are described as being placed in concentric rings.
Seasonal closures: Most campgrounds operate from April through October or November. Robin Hill Campground runs from April 1 to November 1, while Spring Gulch operates March 21 to December 1. Village Scene Park remains the primary year-round option.
Varied bathroom quality: Facilities range significantly across properties. "Sites are swampy if they've had rain! Took us over two hours to disconnect because of mushy, muddy site!" warns a visitor to Robin Hill Campground, highlighting potential drainage issues at certain locations.
Tips for camping with families
Playground access: Look for campgrounds with dedicated play areas. "There is a nice playground and a GaGa pit," notes a visitor to Stonybrook RV Resort. The playground provides a central gathering point for younger campers.
Fishing opportunities: Many parks maintain stocked ponds. "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," shares a camper at Robin Hill, highlighting that fishing results can vary.
Recreational equipment: Some parks provide sports equipment for guests. "The campground had numerous activities set up all throughout the day and there was something for everyone," describes an Appalachian camper who appreciated the variety of options for different age groups.
Tips from RVers
Site leveling challenges: Many campgrounds feature sloped terrain. "Our site was a drive-through but slanted. There wasn't much room on our site to do anything else," notes a camper at Lake-In-Wood Campground. Bringing additional leveling blocks is recommended.
Winter accessibility: Limited options exist for cold-weather camping. "We stayed here during the winter January-February no activities going on. It does offer beautiful views especially covered in snow," shares a visitor to Stonybrook RV Resort, one of the few parks open year-round.
Sewer connections: Hookup styles vary between parks. "Not sure about other sites but ours had a big 'tank' that was used for sewer hookup instead of group connection as did all the sites around us," reports a Robin Hill camper, noting the unusual setup that requires different equipment.
