Tohickon Valley County Park

11 ReviewsAdd Review

Tohickon Valley County Park runs 22 individual sites plus two group sites and four cabins along Cafferty Road in Pipersville, with rangers collecting fees in person rather than at a self-pay station. Rates run $30 for in-county campers and $50 for those coming from outside Bucks County, a distinction worth knowing before arrival. No hookups are available, and RVs longer than 25 feet won't fit the layout comfortably. No pets are permitted anywhere in the campground.

Sites are set well apart from each other and backed into the trees, giving campers room to spread out without crowding neighbors. Each site includes a fire ring with grill and a picnic table. Some leveling issues have been noted at group site two specifically, though the individual sites read as more consistent. Deer sightings come up repeatedly in reviews, and the surrounding canopy keeps things shaded through warmer months. Cell coverage is limited, with Verizon historically performing better than other carriers in this area.

The park's draw for active campers is substantial. A rock wall draws climbers, and hiking trails connect to the Delaware Canal towpath, which also makes the campground a workable stop for bikepackers. Fishing is available on-site, and twice a year, in March and early November, scheduled dam releases on Tohickon Creek bring whitewater paddlers to the area. A seasonal pool operates from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Katrina Z. notes that on Saturdays during polo season, a match is held at nearby Tinicum Park.

Navigation deserves attention. The map pin for the campground is slightly off, and at least one reviewer recommends searching "Deer Woods Campground" in Google Maps to get accurate directions, especially when arriving after dark. Some road noise from Cafferty Road is audible at certain sites, particularly site 16 near the restrooms. Reservations are available but not always required depending on the season, so calling ahead during shoulder months is a reasonable step.

Campers wanting a different setup nearby can look at Tinicum Park Camping a few miles north, or Beaver Valley Campgrounds for a campground with more conventional amenities.

Campers regularly cited the spacious, well-spaced sites with excellent privacy and helpful rangers. Basic facilities meet most needs though hookups aren't available, and some noted road noise.

First time camping

As far as experience it was good. The main issue was the campsite where we were was uneven and caused many of the sleeping arrangements that we had to be not level. This seems to be a specific issue to the group campsite number two as when we went inwards it seemed like everything else was much better.

Great stay

A beautiful spot with plenty of space, a fire pit with grill and a table. We came in late on a Saturday after it was dark and couldn’t figure out where it was, the location on the map is slightly wrong. To get directions google maps to Deer Woods Campground. We paid the ranger in the morning, he said they upped the price to $50 if you are from out of county so that was a bummer.

Easy family camping

Easy to drive in and out. No “camp store/ features” but there’s a local pool with swing sets within walking distance and lots of manageable trails along the cliffs.

Great stop for a Bikepacker

No electrical and no pets allowed in camp sites. But plenty of trees and huge fire rings in each spot. An RV would have a tough time but for car camping it’s great. The Delaware Canal is nearby with the tow path for biking. That makes this a nice Bikepacking stop.

Peace and Quiet

Since it was late in the season, I called ahead to make sure this campground (22 individual sites plus two group sites and four cabins– two rustic and two modern) was still open. I was reassured that it was, that reservations were not needed, and that a ranger would come around to collect our fee ($30 cash or check). We arrived around 6 pm to a completely empty campground. Granted it was a rainy Sunday night, but the gates were open and so were the restrooms, so we settled into site 16, across from the restrooms. Aside from occasional road noise on Cafferty Road, we didn’t hear any noise or see another soul (including the ranger) during our overnight stay. There was no place to self/register/pay that we could find. The next morning, we woke to sunshine and the campground looked beautiful. No hookups and the bathrooms were reasonable but not the best we’ve encountered. The shower did not look very appealing. I did not see the cabins or the pool that is open Memorial Day through Labor Day. I read that two water releases each year in March and early November are very popular for whitewater rafters and many of these paddlers stay in the cabins and campground. I also read about hiking trails but could not find them on the Google map on my phone. Not seeing much to do, we packed up and left what was likely the most peaceful night of camping we’ve experienced in a long time!

Nice place for the family.

It's a great place to take the kids for a night or two of lovely moderate hiking and outdoor experience. Except I don't have kids and the people I tagged along with didn't read the rules, so we brought a bunch of alcohol and had our selves a blast until the rangers showed up.

Peaceful

We were here at the end of September and there were only a few other campers.The sites are a decent distance from each other. It was nice and quiet. There are trails for hiking and if you're there on a Saturday during polo season you can catch a match down the road at Tinicum Park.

One stop shop for adventure!

This place is amazing! everything you could want, from tent and RV camping to cabin rentals. They also have a pool and playground. some of my favorite parts of this park are a good 100’ rack wall perfect for climbing, great fishing, trails for miles that even connects to the AT, and when scheduled they open the dam up stream for som world class whitewater rafting.

As for some things that aren’t listed. this is no alcohol permitted in the park due to it being a state park, however that all depends on how open you are about it and the Park rangers. Cell phone service is limited last time I was up there in 2012 only people with Verizon Wireless had any reception. Also there is no WiFi. No hookups or camp store.

Peaceful Campsite!

It's a small state run campground for tent camping. All the sites have a ton of room to stretch out! (Room for fire/ grill pits) There are bathroom facilities which have showers. You can reserved a site or find an open one and set up camp. Park rangers routinely will check up on you to make sure things are going well, I’ve never had that experience before but they have been kind the 2 times I have been their.

Big, private, and scenic campsites

We came late and left early but our campsite was big, we weren't on top of our neighbors, it was set back into the trees, and the sounds were incredible. We saw lots of deer and signs for a pool!
