RV sites near Unity House, Pennsylvania offer full service connections with varying degrees of privacy and natural surroundings. The mountainous terrain in the Pocono region features elevations between 1,300-1,800 feet, creating distinct microclimates that affect camping conditions throughout the year. Winter temperatures can drop below freezing from November through March, with summer highs rarely exceeding 85°F.
What to do
Hiking trails: Access points near Stonybrook RV Resort provide scenic routes through wooded terrain. "Beyond the pool there wasn't much to do. Although, this might be due to the fact we visited during the week instead of the weekend where it seems they have a lot of events," notes one camper who visited in September.
Mountain biking: Downhill adventures at Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort offer unique terrain challenges. "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. You can also Zip line or swing through the trees if you would rather," according to a reviewer who enjoyed the outdoor offerings.
Wildlife viewing: Year-round opportunities with best sightings during dawn and dusk. "We had a FHU 30/50 amp. The gem is the beautiful grounds, river, and parklike setting. Lots of wildlife around," mentions a visitor to Tri-State RV Park, highlighting the natural surroundings available even at developed campgrounds.
What campers like
Seasonal variety: Fall colors transform the landscape from September through mid-October. "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," shared a camper who visited Thousand Trails Scotrun during autumn.
Pool facilities: Summer relief from June through August when temperatures peak. "Their pool looked very nice although we did not use it. Same with their patio set up around the store," notes a Memorial Day weekend visitor to Stonybrook RV Resort.
Winter camping options: Year-round access with limited facilities during colder months. "Open during the winter. Easy on, easy off. Lots of pull through sites. CLEAN bathrooms, showers, laundry. Super nice owners. Perfect for an overnight stop," explains a winter traveler at Tri-State RV Park.
What you should know
Cell service limitations: Coverage varies dramatically between providers and locations. "Sites are long but narrow. Best water pressure I have seen on the east coast, unregulated it's over 80 psi. Cell service is ok. Verizon is 25 down 10 up. Tmobile is unusable," reports a camper at Thousand Trails Timothy Lake South.
Site selection challenges: First-come system at some parks requires strategic timing. "This is a first-come, first-serve park in the Thousand Trails system so we had to drive around looking for a spot. The check-in process alerted us to the sites that had issues such as no water or cable(there were 5 or 6 of them)," shared a visitor who appreciated the transparency about site limitations.
Limited off-season amenities: Facility closures occur primarily between November and April. "We stayed here during the winter January-February no activities going on. It does offer beautiful views especially covered in snow," notes a camper describing winter conditions at Stonybrook RV Resort.
Tips for camping with families
Playground access: Multiple options for different age groups. "There's a nice playground and a GaGa pit. There's lots of space to walk your dog on leash but no dog park," mentions a visitor to Stonybrook RV Resort, highlighting recreation options beyond just swimming.
Animal interactions: Farm experiences available at select locations. "The farm has goats, a donkey, and a pony within the campground. Very cool," explains a camper who stayed at Pleasant Acres Farm RV Resort, offering a unique experience for children.
Weekend activities: Scheduled events primarily run Friday through Sunday. "Plenty to occupy the kids. Playground, hayride, animals to feed (goats, chickens, donkey and pony). There were some organized activities which was nice, not as much as a Jellystone Park," reports a family who visited Pleasant Acres in October.
Tips from RVers
Navigation challenges: Tight access roads require careful maneuvering for larger rigs. "No issues navigating my 32' coach through the roads. There were a number of spots that could have easily fit our rig(although a few would have been too tight)," shares a camper about maneuvering through Thousand Trails Timothy Lake South.
Site leveling: Bring adequate blocks as terrain varies significantly. "Very very level site. But beyond the pool there wasn't much to do," notes a reviewer at Stonybrook RV Resort, highlighting that level sites are available despite the mountainous terrain.
Winter preparation: Year-round facilities have limited availability. "We recently had the pleasure of staying at Mountain Top RV Park and were impressed by the exceptional experience and service provided by the owners. The newly upgraded camp infrastructure elevated the stay, providing amenities for comfort and entertainment," explains a visitor who appreciated the modern hookups.
