The campground at Cherry Springs State Park has 30 sites and vault toilet restrooms. Pets are not permitted.

But don’t go for the camping. Cherry Springs State Park is an International Dark Sky Park and measures a 2 on the Bortle dark-sky scale. Go for the night skies - to see the stars and the Milky Way.

There are nearby state parks with daytime activities (try Lyman Run State Park for the swimming beach, hiking, and ATV trails).

Helpful Tips:

• Astronomy field is only for serious amateur astronomers and must be reserved (observe from the public viewing area behind the campground)
• Use red light even in the campground (free red cellophane available near the amphitheater)
• Site 26 is the best for unobscured night sky viewing
• Dress warmly (evenings are very cold, even in the summer)
• Do not expect cell service (even within an hour driving radius)
• Be prepared (nearest city of Williamsport is an hour away; firewood may be available at Lyman Run State Park concession stand)
