Campground is kept clean but is showing signs of age. Most sites had an electric meter indicating that it could be used as a seasonal site. In fact many sites were seasonal but were well kept. Easy to miss the entrance, did not see a sign. We used this as a base to see the sites in Hershey and it worked well for us. Our site did not have any grass, just gravel. We did not use it but there was a very nice playground for the kids. We may use the campground again if we cannot get closer to Hershey. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were assigned site 108 and the noise from the highway is constant and loud 24 hours. If you stay here avoid sites 106-108, 211-213, 311 and 312 and 411 & 412 for this reason. The closer to the office you get the less noise.There are some permanent campers set-up in this park and for the most part are a bit on the shabby side. The section in back of us is a storage area with campers in various state, some decent and some old with flat tires etc..When we return to tour Amish Country later this year we will not stay here.They are pet friendly and have a large grassy sloped area to walk the dogs. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The perfect place to stay over night if you are traveling south from Canada. Easy pull though. Wonderful staff. After hours self check in. Clean, small, easy to get too. Close to everything you need. It is right next to the interstate so it is a bit noisy if you are not used to that sort of thing. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We spent six weeks here, starting Feb 12th, 2007 - only a day before the "storm of the century" hit Pennsylvania! Even during the storm, the workers made sure the roads were clear, which helped a lot! ALSO, they deliver propane to your site! There's only two things that kept my rating from being a 10: the lack of cable TV, plus the fact that we couldn't use the water hookups during the cold weather (even though we had heated and insulated hosing that would have covered the standpipe). But filling the tank wasn't that bad. Thanks, HBEast! We'll be back, but not in the winter! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Not a bad campground, road noise didn't bother us. But my father was closer to I-283 and the road noise bothered him one night. We stayed there during Hershey Show and would probably stay there again because its close to hershey. The site was pretty level, all the roads look like the were just paved. My father has a Class A 39ft pusher and he got around fine. Tree's will block Directv. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were here for the RV show in Hershey. The location was convenient to the show, and other Hershey attractions. Our site was perfectly level, and the roads in the campground were nice and wide. We did hear road noise from I-283, but we were not bothered at all by it at night, and we had our windows open. Bathrooms were clean, and the staff was friendly. Will return here when we come up for next year's RV show in Hershey. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We were not pleased with our stay here and would not recommend this campground to anyone. Upon arriving, we found that the site we were given was located not more than 50 yards from the interstate! We asked if we could be given another site farther away from the traffic noise but were told that none were available. We set up our tent trailer and found that the noise was so bad that we had to yell to each other around the campfire in order to be heard! We recommended to the office that guests should be informed of the road noise upon making reservations so that they can make the right choice for their camping experience. The lady behind the desk said that they didn't have any other complaints! No apologies were offered! We toughed out the two nights by running our air conditioner in an attempt to drown out the noise and were glad to depart. After a day at Hershey Park, we certainly could not look forward to a nice relaxing evening around the campfire. The whole campground is a shame with its many permanent sites, ugly surroundings and awful road noise. The one plus it does have is that its bathrooms are clean. It's metered showers are bother however (10 minutes for a quarter). The fact that I would take time to right this lengthy review says that I find it important to let others know of this campgrounds faults and help them avoid it. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Wow, what a great little campground. Conveniently located and easy in and out. The staff is friendly and helpful. There are some seasonal but you can hardly tell. No Junk! Best of all no rowdy drunks riding around on golf carts! This is good place to stay for many area attractions. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We camped here for a long weekend. The noise from the major interstate can be annoying if you stay on that end of the campground. We stayed in site 106. It was a large site. These people are very pet friendly and the staff was courteous. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Good basecamp for our overnight visit to nearby Hershey park (about 10 miles). The bathrooms were reasonably clean with metered showers. The campground was suprizingly quiet for being located next to a major roadway. We would stay here again when in the area We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

A great little campground. Nice sites although a few are small. Lots of trees and very clean. Some seasonals but none of the "seasonal junk" around. Used it as an overnight and was very pleased. Would go back! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Decent park. Some long term, but most were new rigs and well taken care of. Extremely
friendly staff. Very nice. Easy location to get to, but close to the interstate. Very pet friendly. We camped here in a Motorhome.
