Best Campgrounds near Wyoming, PA

823 Reviews

Wyoming, Pennsylvania provides access to several developed state park campgrounds within a 30-mile radius, creating a gateway to northeastern Pennsylvania's outdoor recreation. Frances Slocum State Park Campground, located in Wyoming itself, offers electric hookups and accommodations for both tent and RV camping from April to October. Other nearby options include Lackawanna State Park Campground and Ricketts Glen State Park Campground, which provide additional amenities such as cabins, yurts, and year-round accessibility in some areas. The region includes a mix of state forest and county park campgrounds with varying levels of development.

Most campgrounds in the Wyoming area operate seasonally, with the primary camping season running from mid-April through mid-October. Winter camping opportunities are limited, with Ricketts Glen being one of the few year-round options. Reservations are recommended, particularly for weekend stays during summer months when facilities reach capacity. Sites with electric hookups are available at most state parks, though water access points may be communal rather than at individual sites. Trail systems connect many camping areas, making them appealing bases for hiking and outdoor exploration. One camper noted, "Very nice park with great hiking spots, a local pool, and a lake that you can rent boats or kayak on."

Campers frequently mention the lakes and water recreation as highlights of camping in this region. Frances Slocum and Lackawanna State Parks feature lakes suitable for kayaking, fishing, and boating, with some campsites situated near the water. The developed campgrounds generally provide clean facilities with showers and toilets, though site privacy varies considerably. Several visitors noted that campgrounds can become crowded during peak summer weekends, with some mentioning that sites are "packed in together tightly" at Frances Slocum. For those seeking more seclusion, Moon Lake Recreation Area in Pinchot State Forest offers more primitive camping with fewer amenities but greater separation between sites. Highland Campgrounds and Cozy Creek Family Campground provide private alternatives with full hookups for those wanting more conveniences.

    Locust Lake State Park Campground

    Edit: 1 star- Scout sites before paying!

    Beware: these sites are not travel trailer friendly.

    We booked two nights but upon arriving, we realized that there was no way to fit our trailer (only 25 ft). Trees were growing up in all the sites that were available and most of the ones without trees in the way were pointing in the wrong direction for backing into and NONE were level. Called the office, they told us what other sites were available and we tried every one. Only one was remotely suitable for a travel trailer and we had to drive the wrong way through the loop to be at the right angle to even try backing it in. No luck. I’m honestly shocked that they label some of these sites as RV friendly because wow. We left and had to find other accommodations. Trying to get a refund and currently navigating their phone system/trying to get a refund. Three phone conversations later and I’ll have to call another number on Monday to get the right person to issue the refund. We’ve never stayed at PA parks before but if they’re all like this, then it makes it really hard to plan when some sites are fine for trailers and some aren’t even close. Just heads up.

    UPDATE: Called back during business hours and got the “park manager.” Could only give a partial refund for one of the two nights. I said that they weren’t clear on the condition of the sites and he said there was nothing he could do about it.

    Salt Springs State Park Campground

    Worked for me

    I stayed in late September in one of the drive in spots. There were no other campers bc of the season- and it’s mid week. I love this park and it’s close to my house so I just wanted to crash there and wake up early to hike. It was quiet all night. The bathrooms are very far from tne sites and it was visible where some people had relieved themselves in the bushes. There is no potable water anywhere so bring some. I enjoyed it but during the on season or busy times tnere is zero privacy between sites other than sites 13 and 14. Def wouldn’t stay here during summer for that reason.

    Stonybrook RV Resort

    This is a great place!

    We spent four nights at Stonybrook RV Resort in Lehighton, PA, for a quiet wedding anniversary getaway— and so glad we did. We paid$150 per night total for a FHU 50 Amp Premium Back-in site (#F20). This campground makes a great home-base while hanging out in the Pocono Mountains. 

    THINGS I LIKED: 

    • This place is in super condition— everything works as it’s supposed to and is clean and maintained 
    • The concrete pad/patio with Breeo smokeless fire pit, Adirondack chairs, and metal patio table and chairs made a great setup 
    • Our site(F20) is level and beautiful— spacious and beautifully landscaped 
    • We interacted with 5 members of their staff and all were welcoming and friendly to talk with 
    • There’s a heated pool behind the office/store so it’s not noisy for campers at their sites 

    THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE SO MUCH: 

    • Just one thing— the entrance made for a challenging entry up a steep grade, narrow roadway, and sharp turn in. I made it without problems, but it wasn’t easy in a 45’ motorhome towing a Jeep. This may be nitpicky— and I’m not complaining about it— just letting you know to expect it on arrival. 

    WOULD WE COME BACK? 

    • Absolutely, this is a great campground(I’ve already recommended it to my Newmar Kountry Klub chapter president as a possible site for a future rally).

    Cranberry Run Campground

    Don’t Stay here!!

    It’s not a campground. It’s where people stash their rvs, some of whom seem to live here permanently. Caretaker was rude. Sites were all rocky and many on steep inclines. Complete waste of our time. Plus, the site looks nothing like the pictures they post, which is an area you can’t camp at. Don’t stay here.

    Salt Springs State Park Campground

    Adventures!

    3 couples all ventured to Salt Springs and split the largest cabin for a few days. We electricity from a few outlets in the cabin if needed. Let me tell you that we spent very little time inside. We enjoyed the trials, waterfalls, and firepit cooked meals outside! Hemlock Grove, Penny Rock, and the saltspring kept us entertained! We cooled off under a waterfall :) I'm looking forward to visiting again! Bring some hotdogs/burgers for a yummy meal after a good day in PA!

    Worthington State Forest Campground — Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area

    Nice campground loud campers

    Great open spot with some shade, depending on when you go we have noticed there tends to be a lot of loud disrespectful people who are there to party not camp. It’s nice to be on the Delaware and not many campgrounds have water access or a boat ramp so that’s a plus. Showers, sinks, and toilets are available.
