Wonderful little State Park

Beautiful setting for camping along a stream and the mountains. We try to get here a couple times a year. Electric only but water fill up is in convenient locations. Dump station is provided. Well maintained and clean. So many outdoor activities abound. The Mid State hiking trail comes right through the Campground and there are numerous other trails within the park. There is a lake for swimming, kayaking and fishing. Minutes away from Big Pine Creek and additional swimming, boating and fishing opportunity. A world class rails to trails biking and hiking trails has numerous access points close by. Your in walking distance to Happy Acres Restaurant & Bar. Enjoy a meal, snack, ice cream cone or an adult libation. They also have a well stocked camp store and a game room. Very affordable camp rates.

Best campground in Northcentral PA

Taking everything into consideration, it’s hard to find a nicer campground to stay for a night or two weeks.

  • clean, well maintained and monitored.

  • large sites on macadam pads. Large fields behind most sites for activities.

  • full hook ups available

  • numerous hiking trails, large lake for boating, fishing and swimming.

  • centrally located between Mansfield, Wellsboro and Corning

*pet friendly. Alcohol allowed

the only draw back is that it fills up quickly and you need to reserve many months ahead of time especially for holidays. Not group camping friendly because of the reservation system. No pavilions for group activities within the Campground

Something for everyone

Passing through? Not far off the major highways of I -80 and Rt. 15. Pull thoughts for overnight. Have kids? Activities, play facilities, animals to feet and pet, pond. Wonderful Camp store. Many nice wooded sites. Reasonably priced.

No Frills down to earth camping!

If you have to be entertained, this might not be the place for you. Nice hosts, well maintained. Nestled in between mountains and right long Lycoming Creek, this Campground is close to great hiking and fishing opportunities. They have a nice group area with large pavilion. Reasonably priced. I only rated this a three because if your looking for a pool, camp store, game room constant activities, then you won’t find it here. But if you just want to get away from it all and relax in a peaceful setting then this would be a 4 or 5!

Nice but expensive

When it is brutally hot, this Campground is always cool. Large shaded sites that you don’t feel like your right on top of the next camper. Well maintained facility. Nice camp store, pool and activity areas. I would highly recommend this Campground except for the price. Pricing exceeds most campgrounds in the area that of full hook ups. I assume that others think the same because they weren’t close to being full over a holiday. We would camp here more often if it was more affordable.
