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 campgrounds near Upper Black Eddy offer varying levels of hookup options for motorhome travelers. Little Red Barn Campground in Quakertown offers full hookup RV sites with 50-amp service, operating from April through November. Robin Hill Campground in Lenhartsville features water, sewer, and electric connections for RVs with gravel pads suitable for larger rigs. One camper shared that "many sites are level, but the roads are very narrow with sizable boulders on both sides and trees that need trimming—almost took my AC out with a huge limb." Stonybrook RV Resort in Lehighton accommodates big rigs with 50-amp service, while Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort provides more basic amenities with primarily non-hookup sites in a wooded setting.
Navigation to several parks requires careful planning due to narrow access roads and challenging terrain. A visitor commented, "Do NOT come over the Frenchtown bridge. It is WAY too narrow—hard to even have two Honda Civics passing, much less any type of RV or travel trailer." Cell service varies significantly throughout the region, with some campgrounds reporting weak Verizon coverage but better AT&T reception. Most parks in the area close for winter, though Village Scene Park in Hatfield remains open year-round with full hookups. Dump stations are available at most parks, though some charge additional fees. For RVs requiring propane refills, services are limited—travelers should arrive with full tanks or research local options in Quakertown or Lehighton where propane is more readily available.

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!

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.
Edwin R.ScoutCheesequake State Park Campground
Park uses county cops to shut down park by 9pm.
On Friday, September 4, 2026, I rented a trailer and brought my family to Cheesequake State Park to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary over the extended Labor Day weekend. Around 9:20 PM—well before the park's designated 10:00 PM quiet hours—we were sitting inside our canopy, playing Jenga, and listening to low background music. Two officers from the Matawan Police Department approached our campsite. They were polite and courteous, simply offering a standard reminder to wrap things up by 10:00 PM. Before they could leave, however, a third, senior officer intervened. Wanting to"show them how it's done," he made the two polite officers return and stand by to watch as he demonstrated how to aggressively harass campers. Flashlight in hand, the senior officer approached with an immediate hostile attitude, treating us like criminals as he demanded to know who rented the site. He began reiterating rules and claimed we had too many vehicles. We had three cars, one belonging to my brother-in-law's girlfriend, who was visiting with her daughter. She had paid the$10 visitor fee at the main office and was instructed by staff to obtain the gate access code from us, the primary renters, if she got locked in. No staff member ever informed her of an 8:00 PM visitor departure deadline, leading us to reasonably assume visitors were permitted until quiet hours began at 10:00 PM. The officer rudely snapped that she had been given wrong information. The senior officer then used profanity in front of three small children, aggressively telling her to ("get her shit and get the fuck out!") in that manner or use profanity, the officer went from hostile to furious. He angrily declared that these were official violations and threatened that he could be issuing us tickets instead. Desperately searching for anything and everything to throw at us, he demanded that we turn off our idling car—which was supplying power to our campsite—and instructed us to make sure the campfire was doused before shutting down for the night. He then proceeded to shine his flashlight into our private setup—including our canopy, tents, and the inside of our trailer—searching for any other possible violation while the two polite officers were forced to watch. What was supposed to be a special 10th wedding anniversary celebration with my family was completely ruined by a senior officer misusing his authority to put on an unnecessary display of intimidation. Worse than just ruining our night, he spent that evening teaching those two police officers how to be bad cops. He corrupted two officers in real time, demonstrating firsthand exactly why most people have lost faith in the police force. The next day we was ready for them. We turned off our lights and quietly by the fire while they went next door to harass an asian family that had just set up camp and had their leds lights on.

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.

Beautiful forest
Gorgeous forested area in the Poconos. We stayed on the Rattlesnake Loop which was lovely. Sites not super private but most nestled in trees. The only bummer was that that Campground Loop didn’t have any direct links to the trail network and was far from it. The other Campground Loop was closer to trails and office. Would return!

Stephens State Park Campground
Great last min getaway
Booked the day before—even on the holiday weekend! Just 1.5 hours outside of NYC, site was a bit close to the neighbors (fire pit was very far back and basically in the neighbors’ campsite, but we put up a “privacy clothesline” and hung a tarp over it for a bit of extra coverage.
The staff was friendly and helpful, they said it was the busiest they’ve seen the campground all year (there were lots of large groups but everyone seemed to settle down by 9:30pm
Poison ivy was EVERYWHERE at our site so make sure to stick to the open areas and the paths. Lots of families around, we felt very safe Bathrooms were fine—it was my impression they’re usually cleaner but the high traffic of the weekend left a bit to be desired, (lots of families around=dirty diapers in the bathroom trash bin) but it’s camping! I’m not gonna argue w a flushing toilet!

What to do
Disc golf course access: Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort features an on-site disc golf course as part of their adventure activities. A camper noted, "If you're into Disc golf this place has that too," making it a good option for active visitors wanting recreational options beyond hiking.
Mountain biking opportunities: At Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort, the ski resort transforms into a summer adventure hub. "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," shares a visitor who appreciated the unique terrain options.
Fishing at stocked ponds: Robin Hill Campground maintains a catch-and-release lake for fishing enthusiasts. One camper mentioned, "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." While conditions vary seasonally, the option exists for those wanting to fish without traveling to larger bodies of water.
What campers like
Heated pool facilities: Many campers appreciate the pool amenities available at several campgrounds. At Stonybrook RV Resort, visitors find "a heated pool behind the office/store so it's not noisy for campers at their sites." Another camper called their pool "warm, clean and enjoyable," making it a reliable option for swimming regardless of weather.
Privacy in tent areas: Little Red Barn Campground offers secluded tent camping options according to visitors. One camper explained, "The Tent sites are The Best Thing about this Place, They are a lot more Private and spacious." Another noted after relocating, "We ended up setting up camp at site 31 - which was spacious enough for two large tents and very private."
Clean bathroom facilities: Mountainview Campground receives consistent praise for maintenance standards. A visitor shared, "Bath stalls and showers are basic but clean," while another mentioned, "Porta-potties were super clean and...actually smelled good??? Maybe they were just cleaned or they are just really well cared for."
What you should know
Sloping terrain challenges: Robin Hill Campground has significant elevation changes that affect mobility. A camper pointed out, "This campground is called Robin HILL for a reason. You will get your exercise walking to the pond, pool, campstore or basketball courts." Visitors with mobility concerns should request lower-level sites or bring equipment to handle inclines.
Seasonal variations in campground quality: Little Red Barn Campground shows significant seasonal changes according to reviews. "The price is way too high for this campground. Paying close to $70 a night is outrageous for Robin Hill. Before cooperate bought it, it was a lot cheaper with family friendly pricing and much cleaner," noted one visitor, highlighting the importance of current research before booking.
Cell coverage limitations: Thousand Trails Timothy Lake South has connectivity challenges that affect remote workers and those needing reliable communication. A camper reported, "Cell service is awful for AT&T and our T-Mobile gateway. Had to move to a new site to get away from the trees to get starlink connectivity." Visitors requiring connectivity should research specific carrier coverage or bring alternative solutions.
Tips for camping with families
Playground accessibility: Mountainview Campground offers family-friendly facilities including dedicated play areas. A camper noted, "A playground for kids," while another staying at Jugtown Mountain Campsites mentioned, "We were across from the playground area which looked more like a small park - very nice."
Wildlife education opportunities: The natural setting provides opportunities for children to learn about local ecosystems. At Mountainview Campground, a camper described, "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!" These encounters create memorable learning experiences for children.
Farm animal interactions: Several campgrounds feature resident animals that entertain younger guests. "The free-range chickens by the office are a warm welcome," noted one Mountainview visitor, while another mentioned "Cute sheep and goats that wander about during the day!" providing informal animal encounters without additional cost.
Tips from RVers
Access road considerations: When approaching RV sites near Upper Black Eddy, Pennsylvania, some access roads pose significant challenges. At Village Scene Park, a visitor noted, "Sites are narrow and can feel cramped, so don't expect big pull-throughs." Plan your route and site selection carefully based on your rig size.
Winter camping options: Unlike many seasonal facilities, Village Scene Park operates year-round for RVers needing winter accommodations. "Full-hookup RV sites with 30/50 amp, water, and sewer" remain available throughout winter months when most other facilities close, making it one of the few options for cold-weather camping in the region.
Voltage fluctuations: Several RV parks in the area have reported electrical system issues. A camper at Robin Hill Campground mentioned "low voltage throughout the campground," which can damage sensitive electronics in modern RVs. Consider bringing a voltage regulator or surge protector when camping at older facilities in the region.
