Tucked into the rolling hills of Lancaster County, The Loose Caboose Campground sits on forested terrain with sites spread across multiple elevation levels. The campground operates year-round and provides full hookups for RVs, though the mountain access road can present challenges for larger rigs. Site 62 at the mountaintop accommodates a 31-foot travel trailer, while most sites require back-in parking.
The gravel-padded sites include fire rings and full electric, water, and sewer connections. However, water system issues occasionally affect individual sites, and the electrical service has prompted some camper concerns about power stability. The property includes some older structures and trailers that remain on-site. A small playground sits at the base level, though recreational amenities are limited beyond hiking access at the mountaintop area.
Located within reach of Lancaster County attractions, the campground serves as a base for exploring campgrounds around Georgetown and accessing nearby sections of the Enola Low Grade Trail. Gene T. notes it's a place to "wind down, have a fire w/ some peace and quiet." The Roamers Retreat Campground sits just over a mile away for comparison shopping.
Check your electrical equipment before arrival and consider bringing backup water containers given the occasional service interruptions reported by recent visitors.
Description
The Loose Caboose Campground is a 26-acre campground located in beautiful Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. We are a Second-Generation, Veteran, Family Owned and Operated Campground in the heart of PA Amish Country. Proudly serving Overnight and Weekly Campers for over 35 years. The campground is well-known for its large, secluded wooded sites, yet has the distinction of being located just minutes away from many popular tourist destinations (See “Nearby Attractions”) and special area events (i.e. Day out with Thomas the Tank Engine, Annual Rough and Tumble Thresherman’s Reunion, Bird-in-Hand Community Days, etc.).
We are surrounded by gorgeous Amish farmlands and also offer an excellent view of the passing Amish Buggies and the Amtrak/Norfolk Southern mainline. For this exact reason, part of the campground property was actually used in shooting some of the opening scenes of the 1985 Movie “Witness” starring Harrison Ford and Kelly McGillis. We are proud to be members of the Pennsylvania Campground Owners Association (PCOA), the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds (ARVC), Discover Lancaster and Chester County Conference & Visitors Bureau. We have just over 70 beautiful sites, the majority of which offer full hookup utilities. Many of our sites are even open all year round. We are able to accommodate most campers’ needs - having spaces available for everything ranging in size from smaller primitive tent campsites to the largest Big Rigs and Park Model vacation homes. Our heated Bathhouse offers free hot showers and is open to patrons all year round. Limited on-site services (available upon request) include: minor RV repair and troubleshooting, trailer leveling and blocking, winterization and local trailer transport. We are also a children and pet friendly campground. Please contact us directly to inquire about our Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts camping programs for your local Den/Troop activity needs.
Our mission is to make your stay here as enjoyable and peaceful as possible. There is so much to see and do in this famous tourist area that you will never be bored. Even if your goal is just to sit around the campfire and have a nice, relaxing, break from the world, we can offer that as well. We would be happy to recommend local area restaurants, activities and attractions for you to visit during your stay with us. We look forward to assisting you in making the most of your visit to this extremely popular vacation destination. We are currently working very hard to renovate and update the campground. Our goal is to make it one of the premier Camping destinations in southeastern Pennsylvania.
Our Family Campground is Veteran Owned and Operated by myself and my wife (Tracy) who both served in the USAF. We are also a proud member park (one of the first phase originals) of Tents for Troops: https://www.tentsfortroops.org/
