Enormous property, but...
We spent a long weekend for walks in the woods, seeing the fall colors, and all around a huge lake.
What We Liked:
- Even though the sites are sloped, they’re huge. I like that a lot.
- This property is enormous. They have a marina on the lake, a wedding facility, conference center, lots of cabins which look pretty good, and tent sites in addition to the RV sites. Go say hi to the goats behind the store. The property is amazing!
- If you’re interested, it’s a 90-minute drive to the Flight 93 Memorial— well worth the trip!
Things to Keep in Mind:
- The roads getting there are like a roller coaster. This isn’t the resort’s fault, but something you need to know if you’re going there.
- The sites are sloped. Took several blocks to get even close to level. I may be spoiled, but I really appreciate a level site.
- No sewer connection. There’s a dump station available, but just know the sites are water and electric only.
Would We Return?
- Probably not. It’s not fun driving in that area and there’s nothing much to do in the area.

GuideCrooked Run Campground — Prince Gallitzin State Park
Very large CG. I car camped at site 066 (with electric) in mid-October and CG was 3/4 empty. Nice location on Glendale Lake with a beach and boat activities (for warmer months). Showers had no hot water but facilities were nice. Very little separation between sites. Nearby hunters discharging guns into evening hours.

Hosack Run
Quiet & Dog friendly - 20minutes from Gettysburg Battfields
This pet friendly campground in Caledonia State Park is .8 miles from the larger Chinquapin campground (no pets), ranger station and swimming pool. Our site #171 was level, paved, full hook ups and next to modern clean bathrooms with flush toilets, warm showers and outside dish washing sinks. Many available sites with and without services on a Sunday in October. There were a good number of friendly, tidy, long term campers with large wall tents. (They allow 21 day stays after Labor Day)

Great primitive camping
Beautiful area. Very primitive, which is great. Roads were fairly decent to the campsite. Didn't stay near the water and no mountain view but still nice. Had a nice trail into the woods.
Jill S.ScoutFifteen Mile Campground — Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park
Safe, clean, and beautiful!
The campground is a nice size with enough space between sites to feel as though you have some privacy.
We reserved site 4 online but someone had set up there when we arrived. Site 6 was open and it had a better view anyway and was farther away from the toilets, so we didn’t mind.
The boat launch is right there which we planned to paddle board in the morning, but got rained out. The river looks really nice and clean though.
Tables and fire pits are a great size. We saw some gorgeous stars as there isn’t any light pollution.
It’s only half hour from Berkeley Springs, so fill up your spring water for free there and then come enjoy the campsite!
Will definitely return.

Green Ridge State Forest
Secluded Site
This was my second time staying at Greenridge in my twenty foot Dodge Ram RV van. This was a convenient first stop on my trip to Yellowstone NP. I arrived mid afternoon on a Saturday in August and there were plenty of sites available.
The sites are spaced apart and while I could see other sites were occupied as I drove to mine, I did not see or hear other people the entire length of my stay.
The dirt road leading to the site was well maintained and in good shape despite recent heavy rain.
The site was just few miles from the highway, making it easy for me to continue my journey the next morning.

Quiet campground with private sites
This quiet campground has plenty of wooded campsites that offer privacy to campers. We were in the electric loop and it can be a bit tight if your rig is larger, and also you need to be prepared to level your rig in several different directions. But all in all, it was a great spot for an overnight day and we even got to check out some of the trails. Very nice park overall.

First time I ever left a campsite early , complete waste of money
Trip -week before labor day , temps 93 degrees, nothing on website when booked said about peak and non peak days on booking page. Said there were only 7 sites left(complete lie) campground was empty. First time we ever been to a place where EVERYTHING was closed. Campstore, jump pillow and the final straw was we went to go to the pool and that was closed. It was 545 pm sun still bright in the sky , nowhere near dusk( when its suppose to close) . So much conflicting info from what the paper we got handed vs what internet site said. Charged a resort fee ? for what a place to park? This is no resort. Grass was high enough to be seeding itself. My wife was so upset she was actually crying. This was supposed to be a fun trip for our da6ughter before going back to school. We decided this place over Buttonwood just because it was alittle closer. Did a full tour of the place. Realized there is nothing here. Went to dinner in town. Decided we didnt want to stay where we knew our Daughter would be bored. She's pretty easy to entertain but this was just ridiculous. 12 HOURS OF MY LIFE AND $400 BUCKS i will never get back. (Loading , driving , realizing we got screwed, driving, unloading) yup was pretty bad.

What to do
Fishing opportunities: Four Seasons at Raystown Lake / Saxton KOA provides access to Raystown Lake for fishing. "The campground is a short drive to Raystown Lake in Saxton, PA which is beautiful and very big. The campground is in the middle of nowhere but if you like the outdoors, I recommend it," notes Chuck M.
Mini golf: Several campgrounds offer on-site activities for families. "The lower pool is right beside the main office which also includes an arcade and a very nice miniature golf course," reports Christopher R. about his experience at Friendship Village Campground.
Basketball and recreation: Outdoor courts and play areas provide additional options. "The RV side has all the cool stuff; store, pavilion, basketball courts, playground, etc," mentions Sammii D. from Little Orleans Campground.
What campers like
Clean facilities: Campers consistently mention well-maintained bathrooms and facilities. "Staff was wonderful and just a great campground. Bathrooms are Soo nice," shares Dawn C. from Raystown Lake/Saxton KOA.
Family activities: Weekend events and special programming appeal to families with children. "We stayed during Bigfoot weekend. It was super fun as our family likes bigfoot fun. We started out Friday night getting the offered $12 bbq plate that included pork burnt ends, beans and potato salad," explains Paul B. about their stay at Timber Run Campground.
Fishing ponds: On-site fishing provides convenient recreation without leaving the campground. "There are multiple ponds on the property however only one of them can be fished in. No license is required for fishing here," notes Christopher R. about Friendship Village Campground.
What you should know
Site leveling challenges: Many campgrounds feature uneven terrain requiring preparation. "The site wasn't so level, but we made it work," reports Paul B. about Nature's Getaway RV Park.
Road noise concerns: Some campgrounds experience highway traffic noise. "The only thing we didn't like was all of the road noise. This campground is located by 2 major highways and truck traffic and Jake brake are constant all night long," mentions Aaron S.
Wi-Fi reliability: Internet connectivity varies significantly between properties. "Overall Wi-Fi worked well and everything you need is here," notes Brittany V., though this contrasts with experiences at other campgrounds in the region.
Seasonal considerations: While some campgrounds operate year-round, many have reduced services in winter. "After the weekend though, all the activity slows down. There are seasonal campers that stay around, and they're constantly working on improving and fixing up sites during the week," explains Paul B.
Tips for camping with families
Playground options: Pioneer Lakes RV Park provides multiple play areas. "Lots to do for kiddos on weekend, stocked ponds, bathhouses very close to all sites," mentions Catelyn T.
Swimming access: Multiple pools offer water recreation during summer months. "There are also two pools at each end of the campground and they are very well-maintained and have lifeguard supervision," explains Christopher R.
Activity planning: Weekend events provide structured entertainment. "It is a monday so I imagine this place would be much busier on the weekend but it's nice and quiet," notes Jennifer K. about Little Orleans Campground.
Site selection for families: Consider proximity to amenities when booking. "In my opinion, the best sites to stay at if you have kids are sites 145–171 as those are right beside the jumping pillow, playground and gaga ball pit," recommends Christopher R.
Tips from RVers
Site spacing: RV sites vary considerably in size and privacy. "Sites are very spacious and the gravel pad was level upon parking. Good connections and solid cable," shares Brittany V.
Pull-through availability: Some campgrounds offer easier access sites. "We got the pull through at the end of one loop so we could face the woods," notes Paul B.
Hookup variations: Electric service ranges from basic to comprehensive. "There's a pool, basketball hoops, and a fully stocked camp store with campground merch, blankets, snacks, toiletries, a lot of rv parts, refrigerated food necessities, pantry items, alcohol, cigarettes, games, fishing gear....really a lot of stuff!" reports Jennifer K.
Seasonal site options: Long-term stays are available at many campgrounds. "The RV side has a ton of seasonal residences. The most half RV/half homes I've ever scene! It's wild," observes Sammii D.
